Flushing with distilled water and citric acid
Jakedstarted grow question 2y ago
Hi guys! Decided to finish my diary (Pineapple Express), which I should have finished a little earlier.
The question is as follows. I decided to flush with distilled water and citric acid. Is this ok or not a very good idea?
Thanks!

Hey mate,
I would simply use tapwater and add more citric. Its a moneywaste, if you have to buy that distilled water.
There wont be a noticable change, when your human tastebuds cant taste something odd in your tapwater, your plants wont notice something either. Compared to nutrients we feed our plants its really nothing.
Happy Growing!

No point, it won't do anything special.
Just use tap water and save your money.
Citric acid........why?...........it will most likely harm your plant, not help it in any way.

Hello Jaked,
You can do this but it doesn't really matter. Tap water will be fine.
Happy Harvest Buddy! 💚

However, a bigger one pretty much died when I did that. It did have roots (very small)when I put it in soil, can anyone help?Other. Other

Transplant autoflower in bloomI have a question. One of my plants is not doing well. It is small, yellow and in the wrong pot. I would like to transplant it into a new textile pot and new soil. I'm just afraid that the stress won't make her a hermaphrodite, she's already 29 days old in bloom. ThanxOther. Other
