Doc's Lab OR

[Dr.D81]

Well I have been sorting the garage and it looks like three 4x8 tents will be all I can fit and still work. The plants and seedlings are doing good and I was able to take some clones for the BBQ. @papapayne how do you apply the Epsom to the coco. Do you add to the coco or to the water? We will see how the 12/12 from seed plants did in about an hour.

 

[papapayne]

I haven't used epsom salt in coco, been using cal mg plus from botanicare. But, in soil I would mix in a table spoon per gallon and mix it up really really good so that it full dissolves and disperses.

Ok I thought I had seen it. I am just going to pick up some Dyna gro magpro and protek tomorrow.

 

[papapayne]

yea I still have some floating around from the soil days. With the coco, I figured there was enough salt in the other nutes. Although, my measuring cup gets very salt lined after i mix in the cal mg plus.

It is 13% sulfur to or some such %

So any of you guys with coco experience I am feeding the big clones at 800 ppm at 6.5 ph. I checked my run off an it is 5.3 is this because it is new and will it straighten out?

 

[papapayne]

to be honest, I have never measured my run off ph. in veg and early flower I wasnt even adjusting ph. Although before that I was seeing the droop from some plants

I'm using Calmag plus from Botanicare @ ph 6.0 and silica with Hesi coir and
Hesi PK but I'm getting some drying of the tops other than the monsters are a
little too close to the lights (no more 5 week veg) I think it's the lights more than
lack of minerals. I'm more than happy with the results from Hesi (no salt residue).
As far as runoff goes I don't check either.

I am luck I guess. Water is 7 and it drops to 6.2 and comes back to 6.5 after a hour. It just stays like that, and that is like the butter zone for hydro from what I have read over the years.

6.5 ph is the butter zone for soil . 5.8 is the sweet spot for hydro. From what i've read and practiced.

Your probably right. I am long time soil and I never had to ph anything in 18 years. Damn it has been a long time at this shit

I take that back I had to ph in north Louisiana one time I ran out of rain water but the water there was at or over 9ish

 

[homebrewer]

That's a lot of beer cups! Good luck!

[homebrewer]

[Dr.Amber Trichome]

wow Doc, you work fast, damn! that is IMPRESSIVE> that's a lot of plants u got starting up. your entire home is going to be like a jungle. Good Luck with everything. yeah , I know the struggles with uploading here on rollitup. its very problematic. THC farmer makes uploading so much easier.IC mag is kinda goofy, for large images you have to upload to your gallery then to insert it into your post for a large image. Jorge Cervantes forum is easy to upload as well.
