You need to regularly test and balance the PH of your watering solution. This all but impossible without a tester. Spend the $5 and get a test kit. If your PH is off by even a tiny bit it will have a huge impact on your plants. If the PH is not correct, the plants will not be able to absorb nutrients. Even 1/10 of a point off will cause problems. Without a test kit you'll have no way of correctly balancing the PH and your crop will suffer.
Fuck yeah chick growers! My babe loves to read up and get shit done!thx for all of your advice, fyi, i'm a her![]()
i'm going to go shop for a PH water meter tomorrow, can i just get a digial one? whats the cheapest I can find that?
lol well i'm not someones babe tryin to learn some stuff lol i built my grow room myself, learned everything myself, my GIRLFRIEND loves to learn with me tho![]()
nothing wrong with throwing lesbianism around either thohehehe j/k just get a lot of stuff on the cannibis websites about being a female, then everyone assumes there must be a man somewhere doing all the work!!
and FYI, I can outsmoke any man in the cannibis world its a wonder men run it.
No, this is not untrue... this is absolutely true. Every plant has a threshold and if you cross the threshold your plants will suffer. Some strains thrive in a PH of 6.2 while others thrive at 6.5. If the PH is off there will be a noticeable effect on the plant. While soil is more "forgiving", the fact remains that, if the PH is not correctly balanced the plant will not be able to properly absorb nutrients. Just because you've never tested or adjusted the PH of your grows doesn't mean that it is unnecessary. It just means that you are lucky that your plants happen to thrive at the level your soil and solutions happen to be at. You have no idea what the PH of his tap water is in his municipality, so it is bad advice to tell him not to worry about it.
Yes every plant has a threshold and every plant is different, but going around and telling people that having your water PH off by .1 or even .5 is going to fuck your plants is not such a great idea because then people think they need to adjust their PH constantly and the fact is, its going to be worse in the long run if your constantly adjusting PH. I didnt say I never have tested, I said I never need to adjust anymore for my SOIL grows.
your gender has nothing to do with growing plants. its all about how you apply yourself. peace
My PH (soil, indoors) is 7.9, I want to lower it, does anyone have a suggestion on how much to start with per gal of water? I dnt have a water PH tester, only soil.
