Ph question
Newbie87
started grow question 3y ago
When you buy spring water, how can the company say it's a certain pH if temperature affects this ? I'm struggling to understand how temperature affects water so much. Does the heat make ph rise or fall ?

Inversely related. So, temp goes up, pH goes down. increased H+ activity, therefore more hydronium formed on average in any 1 snapshot of time.

Does RO water wash away nutrients in the soil?
So I've been using only RO water since she sprouted, have I effectively washed away all the nutrients in the soil? Should I start feeding her just a little bit of nutes to compensate?

Nutrients that work without spending alot
So my first round I used just store bought miracle grow nutrients. Im old school and that worked for reggie buds back then. But wont make the sane mistake this time, as even after low I think it lead to newt burn. Any recommendations that are not super expensive but work forsoil?

Is 1ml/L of food (I'm using Floramicro/bloom) enough feed throughout the growing phase ?
Is 1ml/L of food (I'm using Floramicro/bloom) enough feed throughout the growing phase ? I was advised that fastbud cream cookies don't like too much feed and that 1ml/L is enough however i don't know when I should up the dosage or if I need to at all.

Very old Ata Bloombastic
I own a very old (around 8 years) bottle of Ata Bloombastic. It should not expire, but it looks dark brown and dense (seriously, it looks like liquid s**t but still smells good) but on commercials it appears to be more green than brown. Should I risk it or change it?

Add weight in flowering?
Would a black strap molasses brewed tea help my buds add weight? I'm using only Fox Farm Trio and CalMag with reverse osmosis water, pH @6-6.5. While I have atleast 2 weeks left I'd like to get the most weight possible, if there is anything I can do this late in flower that is.

How do I lower pH using pH Down?
My soil pH levels are high - just over 7. My tap water is also high - over 7. I have a bottle of pH Down but I've never used it. Do I just add a bit to the tap water and water them? Or should I wait till the next time I'm adding nutrients? How much should I add? Thanks!
