Mine gets yellow/orange once in a while - I attribute it to the amount of iron in my water... nothing to worry about!

It's normal, with the soil and nutrients it starts taking on that color!

You can start applying a little bit of fertilizer to the plant; it needs nutrition.

Nutes mixing order??
I’ve just read that you have to add calmag before the micros. I wasn’t aware of this specific order. My plants have been struggling, is there a chance that because I’ve been adding calmag as the last before pH, this is the cause of my issues?? What other problems can this cause?

Biobizz Light-Mix vs All-Mix
Can Biobizz Light Mix sustain the entire life of an autoflowering (plus nutrients, obviously) or should be used for seedlings and first week? All Mix would a be better choice, or in the end just save you some nutrients and work? And for a classic photoperiodic? Your thoughts :)

Calmag
Does anyone know a calmag full of microelements like this but with less Nitrogen? Botanicare only has Fe, Biobizz no Fe only Ca and Mg. So i’m searching if maybe there is a midway product.

Hey guys! I have a question: how do you determine the last 10 days/week of color when you need to switch to ripening? The passport only works in ideal conditions! How do you determine it, by the color of the trichomes, or what? Good luck and happy growing!

Advanced Nutrients preparar la mezcla y almacenarla.
I was wondering if it's possible to prepare a water reservoir with the nutrient mixes already ready so I don't have to mix it every time I want to fertilize. I use: Advanced Nutrients - Sensi Grow Coco Part A and B.

problem with Advanced Nutrient GroMicroBloom ! I took a photo, I hope you can see small particles from fertilizers in the water!!
I have a problem with fertilizers!! why are some particles floating in the water on a new three-day solution similar to those that have settled on the walls of the pot! that is why some kind of sediment and brown flakes and small particles that float appear on the new solution!

Demineralized water to finish
Hey folks! Got a question about giving fresh water to finish. I bought some demineralized water to give them for the last week. The problem being I can't seem to get a reading on ph. I'm assuming because there's no ions in the water . Is this stuff ok to use opposed to distilled?

Mix Dynomyco in water?
I’m about to water my plant today. I haven’t used any Dynomyco since she’s been transplanted in this 5 gallon fabric pot. Can I mix in some Dynomyco in my water and apply it like that or should I just top dress a little and then just water the medium? Happy growing!

When using ffof soil that says it has a pH of 6.3-6.8 is it still necessary to pH my water when using nutrients?
This may be a stupid question but w ffof it says the soil is already pH 6.3-6.8 so my question is do I still need to pH my water when using or not using nutrients or is there no need to because the soil is already the correct pH?

Is there any way of testing an EC or PPM meter to see how accurate it is? My EC meter seems to be giving me strange results compared to my PPM Meter. Both are cheap meters from china.
