Organic Fastbuds run

Well autumn has hit my tent as well by the looks of things.

pH drifted too low and took me a while to figure it out. My
Feed includes a silicon up until week 3. This is highly alkaline and after I stopped using it my pH crashed! My feed with silicon was around pH 9 and without 5.3 so big drop. No wonder they yellowed so fast.

Flushed the blue dream yesterday and doing the orange tomorrow as she’s still yellowing. Blue dream looks happier today and I don’t blame her as her soil pH was 4.8 lol

Other two are doing great - will keep the silicon going until my pH up arrives.

Cheers guys!

Really loving seeing your handywork and plant care in action! For the soil PH levels do you have one of those meters that you put down in the soil? If so can you recommend one? I have seen both digital ones at 3x the price and analogue ones that are cheap but have mixed reviews.

Thanks man! Done a fair more since this grow

I use the apera ph60s. Quite pricy at the moment but if you want an accurate measurement that’s your best bet.

The analog ones, like the 3 in 1 metres? They are ok for measuring the soil moisture but that’s it! pH is useless on them I found

I'm getting ready to move to Apera and was looking at the ph60 too. Good to know, thanks

It settles quickly, easy to clean and accurate to pH .xx

Would recommend

Thanks, when my old Blue Lab (2015) started to have a little trouble I decided it was time for a back up. Can't grow hydro without the right equipment.

Aye deffo need a decent pH metre for hydro. Didn’t know you were a hydro grower thought it was coco?

I test all sorts with that spear lol
