Next time you grow some plants bud, you should start topping & fimming your plants while in vegatative state. You'll be lucky to get a quarter ounce of dry bud bud there with all the plants. That's better than my first plant in the 1970's, I didn't even know about bud, and how to grow it back...

I'm not sure you really need to PPM everything buddy...I mean, I've been growing every year for decades, live and learn you know. I use to run into plant issues...this would go wrong, that would go wrong but nothing too bad. Once I started to pH my water/nutrient supply, and follow any of the...

You know those 3 in 1 meters you can get at any hardware store for less than $20. Two long probes about a foot long, you can check moisture of the soil/coco or amount of light or pH test. Not the best for pH or accurate light meter, but great for checking soil 8 inches deep. I've found letting...

What I do, and I'm glad I started doing it, I bought a multi outlet air pump, and I aerate my tap water, helps get the chlorine out fast and oxygenates your water supply...a digital pH meter (cheap) and some pH UP & pH DOWN and you're sailing...no more weird plant sickies that you don't know...

If your LED lamp has a switch for VEG and a switch for BLOOM, you can put them as close as 6 inches away in VEG. The closer I put my lights the bushier my plants seem to get...much bushier than outside grown plants. Practice is about all you can do, live and learn. Don't fret when things go...

I grow in 10 gallon bags...I'm indoors with LED lights beside the furnace in the basement. Every week, I mix up 4 gallons of water + nutrients and give each of two plants 2 gallons each. Some folks think that I should water it more, but I beg to differ. Too much water is much harder to fix than...

I use North Bay city water...and they use chlorine in the supply. What I do, is fill a big plastic tote box full of hot tap water then run a few air stones with an aquarium pump...keeps the water oxygenated and gets rid of the chlorine after a few days. I've also found that plants really seem to...

I know...I'm a little behind eh?

So, if you're growing marijuana in Promix Mycorrhizae HP, it's considered a "soilless mixture", and the recommended pH levels should be different than that for soils? I wish I would have known this before now. What should the pH of my water + nutrients mixture be at when growing in Promix...

I don't understand "soilless medium" regarding Promix Mycorrhizae HP...I've been using it, and I'm using a nutrient regimen designed for soil I think. This may be why my sugar leaves were burning up. And if it's a "soilless medium", then my pH was wrong too I guess right? I set my pH in between...

Can't you grow a few outside? I mean, start them inside, get them nice and bushy, trick them into flowering, weed out the spindly useless male plants a finish them outside?

Try putting an aquarium air pump with a few stones and tubes into your batch of tap water, keeps it oxygenated and helps get rid of chlorine faster...

Makes me laugh, because like you, I've used water straight from the tap, my plants turned out OK, I've used lake water, plants were fine, then the kids turned pot smoking into Rocket Science, WhiTe Wedding, White Widow, Pink Kush, red Kush, Kush Kush, Tuna Sammich, Lead Belly, bla, bla...

Buy yourself an aquarium air pump, some hose, air stones, put it in your supply container of tap water, use hot tap water so the chlorine comes out faster, put the air stones hooked up to an air supply into your water...you get some healthy water supply this way. Use snow in the winter...
