Filthy tap water for organic growTap water: 8.0 pH at 380 PPM. Can this be used in organics with microbes? I'd imagine I need to pH it also because it would be too difficult for the buffers to bring it down. Won't the pH down build up in the soil? Summer is coming and I am trying to prepare for a drought. 🙏a year ago

Neem oil in coco 6-7 weeks into flowerGrowmies!... Is Neem oil OK to use in coco when 6 - 7 weeks into flower? Pests are in the medium, not the foliage. I read that the plant can absorb some taste/smell from the Neem.. Anybody have any experience with drenching medium with Neem this far into flower? And results?...Week 14

Counting flowering weeks according to breeders estimated harvest timeAt week 9 from flipping to 12-12... I read to not count the first week or 2 tho.. Because she technically isn't flowering just yet.. Not till you see the pistils.. And can't miss the beginning of the flower stretch... So that would really put her at week 7 or 8 flower?? Help lol.Week 14
