Ok so 3 of my plants showing sex aka pre flowering.
Im using a all fox farm line up. Excluding the open seasame.
I rushed out and bought some Tiger Bloom but looking at the bottle Im a bit worried. The bottle reads its formulated with a low PH to maintain stability in storage and keep micronutrients available.
I dont have the money for a good ph tester until i harvest. so Im using two cheap ones I found at Lowes.
http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=251966-83666-1240&lpage=none this tester always shows 7 I think its a peice of shit but pretty accurate with the moisture although I still use the lift method.
This other ph tester http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00134UQEC
usually reads a ph of 6 but have seen it go down and up.
So here is my question for any fox farm users or anyone with knowledge. Do I need to raise the ph level before feeding them Tiger Bloom as the bottle says. Or will this regulate back to normal ph after a day? I dont want nute lock out and since im using crappy testers at the moment Im worried of this. So far everything has been fine. But its a little late in the game to start messing up now.
Next question if I do need to raise the ph before feeding the product what should I use to stay organic and will show results right away. I looked into earth juice natural up. Any other suggestions?
Thanks for reading my essay and help will greatly be appreciated and will give rep to those that try.
