Yes, I use coco. I also had a cheap PH pen that was no help. I now use the PH test drops from General Hydroponics. BTW... the advice to Ignore PH of the runoff is from an article I found. Not from my own research. The advice works for me.

Ignore Run-Off pH Although it is critical to adjust the pH of the inflow, you should not be concerned with the pH of the run-off water. Your only concern with pH is always providing nutrient solution (inflow) that is in the appropriate range. Many growers make the bad decision to provide...

I'm near Sac. Started indoor growing in the 80s in a 4'x'4 uninsulated shed that housed the pump for our water well. Ran the lights at night, pulled in air from outside and vented out the roof. Just a simple thermostat for the fan. No filters, no humidity control. Ran the crop fall thru...

I started cloning with cuttings in a cup of water with and aquarium air pump to oxygenate the water and a 23w CFL bulb sitting on a counter top. You would just need a timer for the light and an air pump. Once rooted they can stay under the CFL till new growth starts. this would get you started...

I have had Mg Deficiency issues every grow since switching to coco. Sparing you all the details, my recommendation is to add a few tablespoons of dolomite lime to the tops of each pot. This has always correct the issue for me without having to radically change my nutrient mix which does...

I think you were over watering before transplanting. Then going to 4 gal pots with a good saturation at transplanting.. This likely made the roots even sicker. This is why your pots are not drying out - unhealthy roots. I have been in this exact predicament. With very light watering it will...

I have used Miracle-Gro All Purpose Plant Food - 24-8-16 for 20 years or more. Then switched to Miracle-Gro Bloom Booster Flower Food - 15-30-15 for flower stage. Plus Epson salt for extra Magnesium. About as cheap as you can go and have had great crops. With all the new information on...

I got light burn with a new high-end LED. Got a light meter to measure the light level at the plant tops. Zero issues on my second crop with the new light. There's an phone app that measures the LUX level too. Measuring the light the plants receive seams more accurate than relying on the...

I have been growing for 40 years and the only time I have had an insect problem indoors was when I brought outdoor plants into my grow room. I have a book that says it's one thing you should never do. I never will again.

Same, with 2 pair scissors and a jar of alcohol. When the scissors get sticky just switch to the pair soaking in alcohol, faster than cleaning the scissors with a rag. With experience and excessive stash, I only keep the best well trimmed buds. Then I do a quick sort of the trim and let the...

I store in high-end rectangle food storage boxes. ones with O ring seals on the lids. They are designed to stack. I have a dedicated lockable fridge. I believe in cold storage but don't freeze my stash.. Thoughts on cold storage?

Great for clones too. My clones never see LED light Till they are quite large. Then I repot and crowd them under one 100w LED. Once they get the second repotting to 1 gal then the second LED is needed. Amazes me all the pictures posted of mostly empty grow tents with a few small plants under...

Mice.

Those don't look like any magic mushroom I have grown or seen in books. I would not even consider eating them unless you are a true expert on identifying wild mushrooms. I don't think they will hurt the Cannabis plant even if they are toxic it will not get into the weed. Mushrooms are the...

Since you have had good experience with Mars Hydro why not stick with them? I have 9 of their lights and never a failure. 4 old blue-purple ones I have retired, 4 TS series and 2 FC series. I run 2 x FC 3000 lights in a custom 3' X 5' grow room. I run them at 80% as to not exceed 80,000...

I find they come out of the pot best when dry vs wet. Try taking a long thin knife or piece of plastic and run it around the outside of the pot between the pot and dirt. That will free any roots that are clinging to the pot then turn it upside down and hit the bottom of the pot with you hand...

Slymer at 55 days of 12 hour days.. I love this variety. My current favorite. 4

Sour Diesel at 70 days since flip to 12 hours.

I use my old blurple lights for "overflow" when I have too many clones to fit in the grow tent. No issues switching back and forth as long as the new lights are not too powerful. The different light color is not a problem. I have ran both types of LED together too in the same tent.

I think it is related to adding Si. I added it for the first time this grow and have similar bulges. Much stronger bigger stems than past grows.
