So I started a new grow using coco with Earth Dust dry amendments. The ever popular Mr. Canucks Grows uses 6.5 - 6.8 water pH. Should I use this pH? I am confused since every online answer says to use 5.8-6.5 pH, which is quite the broad range, and I bet it's wrong. Anyone else using coco with...

Oh, nice, thanks! I'll read you're whole journal tonight :) Very cool it was updated regularly. This should be a good read for meee

I'm still going to do it, but I'm guessing you did a failed grow using this method? I just came from a soil and bottled nutes run, and i hate it. The soil stays way too saturated for too long. I ended up moving my soil grow outside, and they are bouncing back, but got stunted to hell. I'm...

I can't find any real answers on this. I am about to top dress with worm castings, Mykos, Azos, and was planning to spray a bit of neem oil onto the soil surface before top dressing. So... will neem oil be bad to use when using Mykos and Azos? I get mixed answers when searching around.

There is perlite, although looks like it needs a bunch more. Coco i doubt is in it. Plenty of wood chips and sticks in it, not happy about that. This is the last time I do Black Gold soil.

I'm starting to think that Black Gold brand soil has crappy drainage. It takes 7+ days to dry out. could be how small the autos are though too I'd imagine. Starting next grow, I'm going coco all the way... and fabric pots.

I have brown spots on one of my green leaves too now apparently. (Again, ignore the white powder. It's clay, not mold).

Thanks man. I'll water until runoff instead of just halfway.

I tried this with several of my plants, and they don't like it at all. I won't be doing this method ever again.

Sweet. Thanks guys!

OK, here is a better picture to show their size. So, it sounds like I should fully water until runoff based on what you guys are saying?

Why do you drain the saucer afterward if I may ask? Is it bad to let it soak back up through the bottom?

Well, I'm trying not to over water hehe. What about how to water it. Should I make it have runoff based on the size, or water halfway?

I have 2 questions about watering my plants. So I have them in 5 gallon pots. 1.) Based on the pictures I added, should I feed/water the pot until runoff? I am getting mixed answers across the board when searching. 2.) With a moisture meter, what should the meter read when it is time to water...

Any ideas on why the lower leaves on my plants keep yellowing, and random brown spots on leaves? I sprayed with neem oil about a week ago, so I don't think it is bugs. Not seeing any.

I'm using their soil, haven't tried their fertilizer. Their potting soil has 0.09, 0.03, 0.03 for the included fertilizer. Any ideas on what could be wrong?

the soil is Black Gold. It has a little fertilizer in it, not much though. I started to feed them since their leaves started turning yellow, they showed all the signs of deficiencies. They were in seedling mix before that, which had no nutrients in it.

Hey guys! So after quite a few issues on my first grow, I finally got most of my issues in check. I found I was using very hard water (7.5 pH and 740 ppm tap water). I also had heat issues, where temps would get up to 81-85. Again, I have all that in check now. My lights should also be OK, with...

OK, so I can't find any sources online about how to change my soil PH levels by just using PH'ed water. Anything online is telling me to do weird shit like add lemon juice or dolomitic lime, which is not what I am wondering about how to do. For example, my soil PH is 6.7 - 6.9 in all my...
