by the way, if your tap water smells like egg, like mine does, she's rich in sulfur.

i plan to switch over to hydro next grow, not sure if i'm gonna do coco or rdwc, we'll see where the path takes me.

it's not for ph specifically, i'm just stating one of the things it does. i've considered this, but i dont take interest in growing in water. just isn't my thing. i like playing in the soil, it's more natural.

it's not even that they just have to read a book even, the information is way more then freely availible online. especially on these forums, there's alot of great experienced members who have reached out to help me, and actually taught me about all this stuff when i first started back in march...

you're absolutely right on all of that, i appreciate the reply. a good example is the flushing additives, you don't need them to flush out your system, unless you're in hydro. there's alot of mix up between hydro and horti, which is where people get their information mixed up. there's so much...

can't wait to see the frost progress from here.

i love coming back to this thread once and a while to see how amazing your plants are performing. keep it up! you're doing an amazing job. really inspirational.

exactly, a bunch of nonsense for no reason, when you can simply put an amendment in there and never have that problem, or even have to think about ph.

i can agree with you, everyone does have a different understanding of toxic. thanks for staying civil about this, appreciate it. i think that phup/down reagents are toxic becuse of how easy it is to mess up with them. i feel as if it's very unneccsary to have to go thru the hasle of putting in...

i know little to nothing about hydro, wouldn't be able to tell you, i do know it's toxic in soil, that's all.

I've seen in the past 24 hours atleast 10 posts asking how to down/up your ph. gypsum is used as a soil amendment, you mix it in with your soil, and you're good to go. it provides calcium, sulfate and is also a soil stablizer. this means that you won't have to ph your water anymore, once you...

get this. there's a whole amendment that you can put into your soil, that makes it so that you dont have to use toxic chemicals to "balance" your ph! gypsum! cmon now guys stop using that toxic shit, it's for hyrdoponics, not horticultre i'll even give you a link to it on amazon, if you need.

next time use gypsum. GH ph up/down is toxic to your plants. isnt lime for upping your ph?

just topped seedling #1, gonna do some testing with topping and see when it's best for me to top in my environment. all systems are a go.

i'll give you an answer that'll actually help, instead of leaving nonsense that's just bashing you as michigan said, bring your lights closer to plants and you should be okay. ignore tacomac, his ego's too inflated to be able to communicate with other humans.

water. lots of water.

sweet. i followed your journal as well, by the way.

alrighty. update time. LST is going good on #1 and #3, both showing nodes already, while my other baby(#2) that i didn't lst is still catching up slowly, but surely. #1 - i've had to get her stem straightened out, because she was all over the place before so i simply let her to towards the sun...

taking into consideration the nutrient burn, there's almost no doubt in my head that there's excess N. he just needs to chillax with the nutes and stop doing so much for his plant and he'll be fine. edit - at this point, his plants will be fine, he's done exactly that, with stopping the nutes...

started LST on seedling #1 and #3, #1 #3
