They suck the moisture out of the soil and are a very poor choice for growing cannabis.

Pros easy to get nice and weighty to stand up cons can be pricey in bigger sizes and a pain in the rear on some transplants.

Nutrient Lines
I'm thinking about switching nutrient lines to Mega Crop by Greenleaf Nutrients. I'm wanting to use Mega Crop as a true all in 1 nutrient. Anyone who has used these nutrients please let me know your experience with the product and company. Even better if used as standalone nutes.

I made a Python script with my Govee H5075 that auto-monitors my grow box: temp, humidity, dew point, abs humidity, vapor pressure, VPD, air density, comfort & heat stress. (What other parameters can I track with my hygrometer besides these?)

Sorry hat the question earlier before but I'm new here so I dont know how to undo the solved quesion status. The LED has about 300W and I want to dimm it. not simply turn it on/off. Preferably with some kind of integration in home automation systems like Home Assistant. Thanks :)

I have been having issues and believe its the lights
Today I moved my light closer from 60cm(thought my light would be too strong at 600W) to 30 cm after looking at the specs PPFD: 30cm-564μ.mol, 60cm-146μ.mol, Is this the correct thing to do? What can I do to improve my set up?

Humidity and Ph level
Having trouble getting my humidity in my hydroponics setup above 40%. Got some advice that I should raise my pH in my reservoir from 5.8 to 6.5 to better meet the plants needs in lower humidity. Is this true?

Tiny tent = Tiny totes
Is it true if you keep your roots small the plant will stay small? I have 2 small totes that hold 6 quarts each in a 18"×18"×48" tent. Each will have one plant. Size 14"×8"×5". Can't fit anything bigger in this small tent. Don't want to go bigger. No space. Is it ok?

Indoor/Outdoor Grow
Besides the risk of pests, is there any downfall to taking my autoflower outside sometimes to get more space and fresh air? The light I’m using is pretty small so I don’t think my plant is getting hit throughout the entirety of it. I’ve been taking it outside every other day

Can you put your plants into veg after one day of 12/12??
I accidentally left the timer on 12/12 in one of my tents I was supposed to flick it onto 18/6, If I revert it back to 18/16 quick after only one day of 12/12 will this do anything or just slow the veg process down?
