Darn. I was having so much fun mixing and measuring my powders and potions that I over-did it, didn't I? Hate it when that happens. And see, that was one of the reasons I chose that "soil"...the very thing you're talking about, I remember reading in the literature. Thanks for the info in that...

Re: Adjusting your PH when growing in soil Damaging your plants!!!! That's funny, whatever it means! Please allow me to take issue with you on the "it's dirt...it'll grow" notion. That's true, of course, as far as it goes, but (with all respect) it begs the question: Do you just want your...

What!? Wait a minute...hell yes I buffer EVERYTHING that goes into that grow medium to 5.5- 6.5. Is that not what you're supposed to do?? When I mix Terra Vega as recommended (in RO purified water with pH 8.0) the pH drops to about 3.5. Are you saying that I should just pour than on? Oh, and...

I think the Simplest thing I did to enhance growth, both in veg and flowering, was to add a CO2 set-up. As far as humidity, my Grow Bible says 75F is ideal, but up to 90F with the CO2 at 1500ppm (as compared to 300ppm ambient atmosphere). I'm running 78 - 82F and keeping the RH right around...

Right. Thanks for the info on how long to continue. As I mentioned, I started misting the leaves with a dilute MgSO4 solution two days ago and added it to nutes yesterday, so I'm going to hold off and wait for results. Actually I think results are already showing -- there is still curl...
