Most people here heat with gas in the winter instead of electricity because it's cheaper. Maybe that's why they have an abundance and cut the rate. IDK, but like it.

Big Perm man, the gardens are rockin and looking great. I had to stop in and drop a line. You got a lot of stuff going on at once so I admire your ability to keep on top of everything.
People seem sleep on Dyna-Grow, probably because they don't have all the fancy art on their bottles and don't advertise much towards the cannabis community, but damn do they make some good products. The leaves on that urkle plant look phenomenal, thick and waxy.
I mainly use Jacks 321 for my main tents but still use the Foliage Pro when feeding younger plants and clones because it's so quick to mix together. I'm following along and looking forward to learning a few things along the way.

Thank you! I can't wait to see how the PU finishes. The darkness is starting to creep up to the buds now. I dig Dyna-Gro, too!

PH Down for $1.27 a GALLON!
That last reservoir change finished off my gallon of ph down. Since I had to mix up another gallon I'll share my recipe.
1. Gallon of distilled water. Pour out 1 cup.
2. Pour in 1 cup of sulfuric acid into the gallon of water.
3. Replace cap and gently shake up. That's it.
I pour it into a squeeze bottle after that.
I bought the 5 gallons of acid about 9 months ago and including this batch, I have used 2 cups of it so far. I like this ratio because it isn't very strong. I have gotten use to how much to use to get pretty close to my target ph. I'm thinking of making another mix just for my hydro and use 2 cups of acid per gallon so that it's more potent. This recipe has worked great for 9 months though.
Obviously, you need to be careful, wear gloves and eye protection and don't get it on anything. If you do, use baking soda to neutralize it and wash the area with plenty of clean water. Don't drink it. Store it in a safe place. Keep away from kids. Read any California warning label on anything to see the list of other precautions one should take for anything in life.

- 5 Gallons of battery acid: $30 (I got it at NAPA Auto Parts, walked in, paid, walked out)
- 1 Gallon of distilled water: $0.89
- 1 cup of acid = $0.38
- 1 gallon water (.89) + 1 cup acid (.38 ) = $1.27 a gallon.
- Someone's uneducated and unsolicited retort to using battery acid for ph down: Priceless.

No. I had to go back and do the math, lol.
They were 13 days from seed when they went to veg. That was day 7 veg, so they were 20 days from seed in those pics.
