Out of interst do you know the EC???

I'm gonna have to run these tiny lil dwarfs in my 4ft tent. But I want to keep my CMH RW on them . . . . it's 400W . . . . . SO HERE'S THE QUESTION; WHAT WOULD YOU DO?? Stick with x1 400W CMH RW in the 4ft Have x2 CMH RW (800watts, but two bulbs, much hotter than the 600w in there now...

So to follow up . . . .make your own minds up about dwarfs . . . . .yessssss a wee bit too hot on the N, but jeeeeeeez look at em . . . . . Day 25 from planting them in the soil . . . . All of same everything . . . . . Ruderalis not tamed?? White Widow not tamed?? I wonder Zambeza...

B Blammmmmm . . . . .diamond words, I'll look into it . . . . . . What are your thoughts on using chlorinated (not chloramine) tap water with the SFW ??? So you do flush???? ~_

Nicely . . .. I'm not hydro, I'm soil too . . . . I'm just mixing Canna's Bio range with GH Flora series atm, with a few other things . . . . . . I've got some of GH's Bio stuff too . . . . I am loving the dankness from the more organically fed plants :) Teas, yeah man, got a wicked recipe :)...

I have airstones but only for my brew bucket, you're saying an airstone introduces enough extra O2 to the water that it prevents roots from starving of oxygen when flooded ???? ~_

humbled m man . . . .. I've never gone fully organic. . . . . thank you muchly . . .. more data for the bank . . . . . I hand over to @justugh, my knowledge comes from a fair bit of mineral usage, I only have one Veganic test plant going atm . . . . . tis true, it's a different style of growing...

For sure m man, if all is tickety boo, your words are gospel . . . .but we have a soil grower here that has run into problems . . . . .we need to attend to these problems . . . . Flushing to find out end PH and EC is such a good start for me . . . . .wouldn't you agree??? I'm pretty sure...

without knowing what is in what is coming out, it's hard to say dude . . . . .

Ok, that's a lot of perlite that can hang onto salts!!!!!! Glad you've got digi meters, calibrate them often??? Or rather, when where they calibrated last? Epson Salts . . . there is no better source of MG and a bit of sulfur :) I would make up a balanced 0.6EC feed. Three times the amount...

There's nothing in RO water . . . . if you spray your plants with it, there's a real danger you will purge what nutrients are in the plant. Do not do a single thing with RO water unless you have amended it with no less the 0.3EC, no more than 0.5EC of Ca/Mg/Fe in Veg or Mg/Ca/Fe in flower . . ...

. True? ~_

How much perlite to soil please?

OK so, unless it's picture quality, I think I'm seeing rusting going on from PH lock out problems in the lower leaves! Am I seeing dark stems to the leaves and dark purple stripes to the trunk??? Magnesium is def. def. in the plant on the right, look at the chlorosis between the veins on the...

WELL DONE . . . . It is very tall . . . how far away is the light source ??? ~_

Good soil is incredible, I agree with @Vless, though not PH'd but buffered to around what ever it is, just because run off is 7.0 doesn't mean what remains in there will be at 7 . . . .biology does crazy things around the rhizosphere . . . . ;) I'd be feeding and watering twice . . . . . ...

Great idea, digi gives a clearer picture, if you have the budget, grab an EC meter too dude, it will tell you the strength of everything going in and out . . . . It's always amazes me how light a pot can get before I need to water, personally, if i can grab the trunk and l can lift everything...

:leaf: semper fidelis! :leaf: . . .. . . always! NLB! ~_

No probl3m dude . . . . Do you own an EC meter?? Before you go adding anything to you well water, we to to get an idea of the total dissolved solids in the water, the EC, PPM . . . . . Your RO is the safest bet right now as, if the filters are good, you know what you're giving your plants once...

Oh FFS sake, really??? . . . . . mad to think eh, NOT so long ago bro ;)
