I actually have heard that also about the soil. I will get the ph Down and let you guys know how she's making out :)Ok. I believe that is soilless not soil. It's basically a peat-lite mix with some sticks. Evidently there is some bad info around it being too fine, containing reed sedge and causing poor growth.
Nonetheless, it may be better to run that medium closer to hydro ranges (5.8-6.0)since it is not technically soil. If so, that should fix your issues without changing anything.
thank you I will keep in close mind :)Ok. I believe that is soilless not soil. It's basically a peat-lite mix with some sticks. Evidently there is some bad info around it being too fine, containing reed sedge and causing poor growth.

No... high humidity will stop water flow (and nutrient flow), from the roots to the leaves. High humidity will also cause water droplets to form on the edges of the leaves.
Low humidity will cause leaf curling to minimize water loss, and the stomata will close which will inhibit CO2 and stunt the growth... leaves will be crispy.
Good find :) Thank you.Good info Douglas... Here's a link to support your view regarding higher trichome production, and lower humidity in certain cannabis strains.

Fair use excerpt:
According to some authors THC and other components act like a barrier to water loss in dry environment. Other authors have observed that increased THC production is characteristic for places with short rainfall periods, low humidity and sunny climate.
Most insects are beneficial – among this group are those that are generalists. Generalist predators feed on a wide variety of pest insects and, like mammalian predators, only harm their prey while leaving the plants untouched. Generalists are found both above and below ground and include Assassin Bugs, Green Lacewing, Ladybugs, Praying Mantids and Beneficial Nematodes.Well all I've seen so far is random greem bugs and no webbing I've been paying close attention to that I think its leaf eaters and BTW I've been using the organic 3 in 1 insecticide from walmart . here's the major damage None worse then that
Do you grow outdoors. I've been paying attention to my pistols nothing is bother them only the leaves?Looks like some type of grasshopper chow. Shouldn't be a big issue IMO.
Great I'll look into this thank you!Most insects are beneficial – among this group are those that are generalists.
