I read alot of these post and there are a few things I have learn that I would like to share with you new or old growers
1 ph. don't worry so much about it. if you get crazy trying to adjust it itwill be more trouble than you want. Example would be if you lower it to much than add up to get it back then it will become unstable as the plant removes dissolved minerals that are used to stabilize the ph
2. stay with what works. if you have been using a perticular item either nutes or soil or water and begin to have a problem then so
e recommends changing it don't. the problem lays somewhere else that is being overlooked. so write down the maybes and double check again. if its been working then you changed something. amount of nutes improper mix or something
3 tap water. most city water is just fine we don't néed go go crazy with ro water whenyou can just use tap or rain water( the best in my opion)
4. when I am germanating seeds as soon as I see the seedling getting ready to break the Surface of the cube I move it into its home. this allows the tap root. the anchor root witch to me is very important to do it job. by allowing the tap root to grow inplace I feel makes for a strnger plant and I seem to have less bent more straight and stronger plant( if you don't believe it fine but I recommend you try it at least once )
5. micro nutes. we know they are needed and we go to the hydro store and spend top dollar be acause we want the best. well you can buy cheaper and inky opionbetter nutes by going to a local pet store and buying two products One is called reef plus by seachem this product is used for reef aquariums to help corals grow and they are nothing more than a plant themselves. a small bottle is 7.99 and treats 2000 gallons yes 2000
theother is called microlift witch for 6.99 treats 500 gallons. both these items add all the great trace elements we are looking for and do not affect the ph of our water. they raise the calcium mg stom iodine pretty much everything we want and more.
6. don't be affraid to experiment to see what works best for you. there are rules and for every rule there is the exception and a rule for the exception. so take a little info from everyone and just try it. something that work for me might not work for
7. don't be affraid to fail sometimes plants just die. with us doing the best we can do to give a plant the best life we can for some reason they just die and has nothing to do with what you didnt didnt do. just start over and try again
these are a few things I have learned and wanted to share. take it with grain of salt I hope you are able to use just a little of my idea and are able to grow a huge happy plant
