Hey whats up guys...
K so I decided since my ladies were thirsty I would test the runoff and see how I have been doing on PH in Pro-Mix without the Meter...
Those stupid rapidtest meters are the biggest waste of money ever...I have one at a friends and one here....50 dollars of junk...
So my runoff was 5.2 in pro-mix....that was with adding 9.0 water out of faucet...
I kept adding water until I got a 5.8 runoff...with my 15 plants I got them all within the 5.75-5.90 range...took about 1.5-3 gallons of water per plant to achieve this...boy does my back hurt...hunched over the tub for 2 hours...
so that pretty much explains my mag deficiency and really I cant believe they are as awesome as they are...really sexy lil plants...only 24 days from seed and some have been topped twice and nuted twice...most with 10 tops avergae..some up to 18....stalks are as thick as a BIC pen...
Since my nutes are a lil old I will be replacing my foxfarm series for GH 3 part....this will work well in soiless corrcect?
Is there anything I need to add to the GH Series feeding regime...
Cal-mag? silca blast? liquid karma?
I did not add any domlite lime to my promix before potting...is there anything I should be doing to maiontain Ph besides adding nutrient soultion of 6.2-6.4?
These are mom so no worries about blooming nutes being more acidic and all...
If I water with 6.2-6.4 and with a medium ph of 5.8 on average should I be ok...or should i be adding X number of teaspoons of lime/gallon of water to buffer it?
tahnks for all your help guys...your the best...appreciate everything you have and do for me...cya
