Not everybody has the same water man, seriously, the majority of folks, have water treatment systems that thier water goes through, go to your local facility web page, they add the essential minerals already.those are soil testers.
And yes, PH is critical in MG soils, youll kill your plants otherwise.
i have to ph my water, my container plants die if i dont lol. my well water comes out the RO at like 5.5, after mixing feed its like 4.5
If you have garbage water, sure.PH'ing being important or not isnt a ys or no thing.
Its entirerely 100% bound to the context of the grow methods being used.
it may not be necessary how you grow, but for *most* growing methods indoors, its not just necessary, its critical. that makes it bad advice lol, yes. Especially if not clarifying grow methods being used first
thats a great example of bad advice lol
Also one of the reasons you don’t ever really see ph acidic or alkaline issues with new growers nowadays.Not everybody has the same water man, seriously, the majority of folks, have water treatment systems that thier water goes through, go to your local facility web page, they add the essential minerals already.
Now if your water is heavily smelling of something at the tap sure, check it. Otherwise, it’s a waste of money,
For soil growers.
hahahahahah.Also one of the reasons you don’t ever really see ph acidic or alkaline issues with new growers nowadays.
I have t aeen that in a hot minute.
Seriously though, when in recent memes have you seen anyone with crazy ph swings?those yellow stick things you prop your table with.
Those are better suited as shims then meters.
Fact.
Ok bro.hahahahahah.
half the growers on this site have acidity problems and ignore it lmao. Especially the newer growers running bottle feeds in unbuffered soils getting told not to PH their water.
Ive saved their grows in DM one after another since i got here.
Putthataway, all of his plants had acidic swing problems his past grow and he seems to be in genuine denial about it lol. Literally every one of emSo op,
Sorry if it seems like this got off track,
Not my intent.
Seriously though, when in recent memes have you seen anyone with crazy ph swings?
Well why haven’t you helped any of them?9/10 synthetic bottle nutrients on the market reccomend using RO or ditilled water, and PH'ing after mixing because thats what you should do with unbuffered soils and soiless grows.

Just go through the grow journals you can find partially calcium and magnesium locked out plants in most grow journals here. literally over half of them lol.
If your in water of coarse you phin every hydroponic method there is, PH is your single most critical parameter to keep in check. Period. Just like it is with synthetic bottle feeds in unbuffered soils.
Miracle Grow is for spring gardens and veggies. I cringe when I hear those two wordsThey shouldn’t even be in miracle grow to begin with.
The soil is buffered to a point my friend. If you use the whole nute range then p/h is usually about 5.8 - 6.2. So no real ne d to ph. Try mixing canna terra at correct EC with no other products and see what happens. With A ph of about 4 your shoots will be yellow and skinny. Bud formation is a joke. Skimpy shoots skimpy buds at best. Don’t go handing over definitive info. If you don’t know the guys regime. He asked for helpBro I haven’t phd in years. The soil has buffers man.
We all have different variablesthose are soil testers.

i cna take a clone and feed it nutrient solutions from my water un PH'd and you can watch it die within 3-4 feedings if you want. all the calcium and magnesium will lock out after the first watering, itll be all scarred up by the second feeding, and itll die after the 3rd lol
ThisDon’t need to ph anything in soil bud.
If you will be in happy frog, don’t worry about that.
The only way it matters is if you have a ton of salt in your water, which I do, but that's really itNot everybody has the same water man, seriously, the majority of folks, have water treatment systems that thier water goes through, go to your local facility web page, they add the essential minerals already.
