Paradise Opium does better in a light mixture, and a cross I did of Female Seeds Grapefruit & White Widow. By sensitive I mean that they don't thrive well after sprouting. They usually are pale and grow slowly if at all. Some die.
oh.I wonder why?Grapefruit & White Widow sounds nice.
is it going to do anything bad that I added dolomite lime?
I have a kiddy pool of FF LW and FF OF full....:cry:

btw i am beyond impressed w/ FF so far.

I think it is mostly indica and indica hybrids - That would explain the BB the Opium and the WW part of WWxGF. Certainly not all indicas have trouble sprouting in FFOF, Black Domina shoots up like crazy, as does Nirvana Afgan. Have not gotten any of my WWxGF (actually GFxWW) to grow - they all died or stalled and died after a few weeks. I put some more into a 50/50 mix of peat and FFOF and they have just come up. I post how they do.

If you added lime to the FFOF you are probably fine - just don't let the pH creep up because you won't be able to get it down. If you always use water with pH around 6 - 6.3 you will be fine. IMO you don't need the lime because it's already in the mix in the form of calcium from sea shells.
