    Coco PH to high. Help

    I can never get pics to load on here. I’m not sure why but it’s probably something I’m doing wrong. Normally is. However to look at them you couldn’t tell anything is wrong as they look great. I’m just hoping that my runoff readings aren’t relevant and they stay healthy throughout the grow. Just...

    Coco PH to high. Help

    First time using coco and my PH is way to high. 7 to 7.2 in some plants. I’m checking the runoff with a digital apera ph tester. Even though this is the case I see no issues with any leaves. The plants seem to be completely healthy and growing just fine. I’m using canna coco in 3 gallon fab...

    Soil PH and High PPM Issue

    New at all this and have 2 small plants for personal use. My buds aren’t getting big at all. Been doing so more reading and I think they may be nute locked.

    Bud looks and smells great taste bad

    I used seeds this past time for the reason u are stating. Thought the plants I cloned from just didn't have the right genes. Which could be right because they really didn't taste well either.

    First time mother plant. Need advice.

    What do you mean when you say don't let them touch the walls or ceiling. I had planned mounting 4 on one side and 4 on the other. I was going to mount them on the wall with some screws. Is that not a good idea. If not what would be the best way
