New smaller op 20 x 1000 bloom and 10 x 600veg

Im trying adjust wings on this project and I added a co2 extraction system. Im sure having a sealed room and just using co2 is slowing down my veg time and restricting my plant in certain ways.

Im also trying different bases (liquid)

Heavy 16
Flora nova
Canna A & B
House & garden
Botanic pure blend
Sensi A & B

As you can see on my nutrient shelf there are NO pesticides !

The key to high quality nugs is foliar feeding the shit out of the plants in the right time with the right ingredient. Nice test you are doing there. Do you foliar feed? I think heavy 16 will take the weight cup and canna the quality.

Hey bro

Same room same lights
Same temps on top of plant
Same pots
Same Media


The only thing that's different is the position in the room

Flora nova is kicking ass

True true

Farmers all foliage feed

I'm very tempted to foliage feed with insect grass but I don't want to fuck up the tests

Obviously there are slight variations but nothing that warrants a unfair test

Pick up a litre of the H16 Professional Foliar Nutrient next round. You will never look back. I can guarantee that.

I'm in so cal bro

The ph in your plant is low that's why you have spider mites

Contact precision scientific and buy a ph tester for plant juice not soil or water

You can test your Ph of the plant sap instead of the water or medium

Once it drops below 5.5 ( in the plant ) your guaranteed spider mites or mildew

Once I figure out what base is best to use with aptus i will do my next tests with foliage sprays

No mites mane, I adopted an IPM program that relies heavily on SAR and ultra refined neem. No mildew either.
Thats some really good info bro! Im gonna try that out asap!! can you clarify what specific product you use to test plant sap?

Hi, I can hate on your favorite product if you'd like. I've never used any of the products, so I think that makes me perfectly qualified.

Man, I heard that Aptus sucks, and only jerks use it in their gardens. It's made from the blood of starving ethiopian children, and is really just overpriced cotton candy mixed with a little dirt and water with a bottle with a fancy label.

Does that work? Was there enough hate? I can edit the post to include more hate if you'd like. I hate to see you missing out on all the hate.

p.s. - I can I borrow one of your bio-waves?

Use a refractor enter to measure the brix

If the brix are high your ph is high

You can check this by squeezing all the plant sap out of a branch and measure the ph of the sap with a regular clean blue lab meter
