Tillbert_1899started grow question 5 years ago
Our soil PH has been staying around 7.5, I've been lowering the water to get it around 6.5-7. Keep it in a 5 gal bucket. Should I continue doing that or adjust techniques?
Using fan and exhaust to control air temp, should I be doing more?
Any advice more than welcome!

Hi @Tillbert_1899 these ground-based PH readers I think are not very reliable, at least with me, I already used one. analog and then a digital and both were always on 7-7.5 even with all the water set at 6 PH. I did several tests with them on the solutions to set the PH and continued at 7-7.5 .I stopped using. I use a pen to read the water, setting all the watering to PH 6 will leave your substrate at 6. good luck 👍

You can also check the pH of the water that drains the pot

Leaf drooping?Okay so just checked in on my babies. One of them is not looking happy. This is a Orange sherbet auto that was sown on 12/24. Light distance is 32in. Any ideas? Overwatering? I was careful to use a mist sprayer. This was the last one to lose its shell. Maybe just over worrying?Plant. Other

Banana found in calyx mid flowerI found 3 calyx with a banana in the center of each. This plant is multiple weeks into flower. It was supposed to be a fast photo period but auto flipped 3 weeks above soil on 20 hr light schedule. Is it likely this plant will have hermaphrodite genes? I'm afraid of it already!?!Plant. Other
