    I am unable to explain run off pH increase

    Wording was misleading , 1 gallon was referencing back-ups in tent that were not pictured. You had it right.

    I am unable to explain run off pH increase

    Hey, nice heads up guys,I sense the “ learn from our experience “ tone and after a little thought agree that I’m setting up chores I don’t need. Appreciate you stopping by and taking the time to point me in the “right” direction. (Note-pictured are in 3 gal, 1 gal are not shown)

    I am unable to explain run off pH increase

    Finishing week 1of 12/12, relatively happy at how things have bounced back, I’m about a month behind intended schedule, but I’ll take what I’ve got plus the learning experience. Nearly all cuttings rooted and back-up seeds I popped will probably stay in 1 gallons and just go into flower room in...

    Ballin' On a Budget- THE RECIPE

    I’ve been considering the switch to pro mix/coco. My question is in regards to pre-washing(high salts)and pre-charging ( competes for Ca?) is this still necessary in today’s market and if so what do those familiar recommend? A second question, more related to the recipe- I’ve seen many...

    I am unable to explain run off pH increase

    Finally seem to be getting things turned around, and originals are improving. Took multiple cuttings, some beginning to root. Also started a few seeds just in case. Transplanted last 4 today and will give a week or so before 12/12. Going to start a veg tent for overflow. I appreciate the advice...

    Veteran noob, I’m my own worst enemy, lol.

    Just in case someone can benefit from my mistakes, the problem above was caused (99% sure) by the addition of azomite. Resources have indicated it does not affect pH but I was experiencing a major buffering effect with feedings. Per soil probe, pH around 6.5, solution in pH stable but run off pH...

    Thanks for the reference.

    I am unable to explain run off pH increase

    Yeah, the Bruce bugbee method seems interesting and simple. I switched to jacks for simplicity and have been very happy with it, last couple runs pretty much trouble free. I got overconfident and the problems that come along with it. I am effectively humbled and refocused, lol. Also going to...

    I am unable to explain run off pH increase

    Yeah, I’m a dumbass noob, but I think I figured it out. Found a note I had added azomite this time, supposed to not affect pH. On a hunch I ran leftover nutrient solution through leftover base soil by itself and no significant change in pH, but the mix with added azomite showed same results I’m...

    I am unable to explain run off pH increase

    My soil mix is basically unchanged past several runs, FFHF cut with perlite and EWC, has been working without issue. Open to switching to pro mix, coco or similar, not yet made up my mind and appreciate the suggestion. My question isn’t about what media to grow the clone, but rather am in...

    I am unable to explain run off pH increase

    I’m wondering about taking cuttings from what I’ve got going now and restarting in new media, (after they root). is this contraindicated as they are not thriving or would this be a viable loophole to starting over?

    I am unable to explain run off pH increase

    Having to start over has crossed my mind unfortunately. This would be 1 month lost basically. The warnings from your experience are ringing loud in my ears, what’s the saying about throwing good money after bad? I appreciate the insight. Considering migrating to coco or bugbys peat/vermiculite...

    I am unable to explain run off pH increase

    I seem to be having some form of strong buffering effect coming from grow media as pH of solution input is drastically climbing. Today, pH in around 6.1 (usually around 6.3, but I decreased trying to diagnose issues I’ve posted earlier). Immediate reading of output pH already 7-7.1 and after...

    Veteran noob, I’m my own worst enemy, lol.

    Yeah, not concerned with past yield. Until this run, I have only been improving, ie less s/s of issues, increasing yield each run, etc. Pic above is about 2 1/2 x 4. Another post re: chlorosis, with similar images, a staff member(aquaman) indicated probably light stress, which makes sense in...

    Veteran noob, I’m my own worst enemy, lol.

    I usually start in solo cups to 1 gallon plastic to 3 gal fabric for flower. I’m pretty comfortable with water routine, last couple runs were essentially problem free, end product lacking mainly in aesthetics, effect were satisfactory but with room for improvement. I’m really having a setback...

    Veteran noob, I’m my own worst enemy, lol.

    Greetings everyone, guess this is a bit of a late introduction and a request for assistance. I’ve been growing (struggling to) off and on since 2013, with marginal but improving results, still far from what I hope for. In my early 50’s now, growing was always an unfulfilled burning desire, and...

    Ballin' On a Budget- THE RECIPE

    Essentially the same on my end, always looking to “second opinion” past info, especially when new sources seem knowledgeable and reasonable. Amazing all the superstition and conflicting opinions people have on growing. I appreciate everyone’s time, thanks.

    Ballin' On a Budget- THE RECIPE

    Is mixing order truly critical, or a lot of “bro-science”? If mixing order is important please advise, or at least informed opinion please, thanks. Previous jacks resources have instructed full dissolution of part A and Epsom, prior to B(cal nit), to avoid precipitation. I’ve heard as well...
