Jammin on it with a late/early start

[Bilber]

I'm ordering a ph kinda kit.....I need to lower my ec....I'm not getting it.....I'm not dumb, stupid probably, but........

Why do most of my plants like this? I'm not saying my plants do not have deficiencies....they do....whoever sees my posts sees it.....most are just a minute touch, others.....haha

These screen shots are from the links below....great articles......I'm not sure of the order of pics/links....

Water and Soil Characterization - pH and Electrical Conductivity

Created by Monica Z. Bruckner, Montana State University, Bozeman What Are pH and Electrical Conductivity? It is often useful to characterize an environment, such as a body of water, by measuring its pH and ...

I got another for you Idk if you seen or heard about using neodymium magnets

Neat little 🕳 to check out! Thank you Gt! I appreciate info.....there is so much out there! I've probably only just begun scratching the surface......

KISS

That was my intentions when I first started growing.....it has yet to be that way.....

Last time fuckin with her.....she'll be loved till the end....full change of nutes....1 squirt of each....posted above....added a touch of peroxide.....it seemed to lower the ec....a minute touch.....

Ph pen and General Hydroponics Ph Up and Down coming......I'm thinking I've been growing wrong, or at least, not correctly anyways.....

I'm kinda super excited to see what ph I've been running.....

And to be totally fair, this was the full changeover of container and flowering nutes from veg nutes after stretch......

The other one that was a gradual replacement is doing great......

But the ec gets me.......raise ph and it lowers ec....lower ph and it raises ec....

The sad part about all of this.....my kiss method, the one I said that I would adhere to, was because of all the new gadgets that made it easier, also more expensive, to get plants in the optimal condition......

Cost vs reality.......sometimes I need to just Nike

I loved this last song/music so much, I'm not going to upload a new one yet......

So many seeds popped.....I truly thought they were going to be a bust....I planted them a lil late....they sat for a minute......

Lesson learned.....Gradual......

And the little flower area.....

 

[Bilber]

There is so much information to know and or learn!!!!!



Couple charts I borrowed.....

And then this one......arghhhhhhhhhh....I've had this chart.....I think I've posted this chart......I've passed this chart along before.......can I not read? Am I ignorant? Am I dumb? Mostly, hope not, and probably......I followed this chart.....to my deficiencies are.....it led me to ph

 

[figolus]

for the pH of the water in soil culture, must be 6.5, this is a base and the foods are better absorbed by the plant.

after there is the EC, the plant needs different levels of EC during the different phases of its life.

that's how I see it.

In hydroponics, the pH must be constantly monitored, there is equipment to automatically adjust the pH of the water.

I've checked General Hydroponics and came up with the this....

Thank you for posting and sharing this.....I found the General Hydroponics chart yesterday and forgot to post it.....thank you fig for the contribution!

 

[figolus]

no thanks it's normal, we are here to help each other or try to help each other

I know that when I water my plants, I control the EC and PH of the excess water in the water collection saucers. This allows me to know what my EC and PH are after watering and if I need to adjust at the next watering.

@jadins_journey kinda smacked a lil sense back into me, so yeah, I've been down sooooooo many 🕳s........I'm not even sure I'm retaining it all, because of the amount of information I've been neglecting to learn about.....

I've been sending/typing misinformation, in an off-beaten way, to everyone I've ever posted to...?!....?

I've always been a setitforgetit type....kinda.....always gotta manage and maintain, but there is so much I've been missing out on without ph'ing or ecing.....

I'm like the incandescent bulb, whereas, I could be a fluorescent bulb......

 

[figolus]

I use the two pens you see in the photo.
It's not a professional equipment, but they do their job.

the other photo is the product that I use to adjust my ph pen, once a month.

Good stuff. Aqua Fina brand bottled water here in the USA is 7.1 for reference to test your ph metere

Hydro is not hard, expensive or even that complicated. I’ve learned how so anybody else can.
Don’t believe everything you read. There’s a few basic needs the plant requires but this ain’t science

in France tap water ph 7.5 and 0.4 in ec

We each have our own method, we have to sort out what is interesting and test it, then we also learn from our mistakes.

An inside look at how plants and mycorrhizal fungi cooperate

For millions of years, underground fungi have lived in symbiosis with plant roots. Plants provide photosynthesized carbon, while fungi deliver water and nutrients. In order to do so, these organisms share space at the cellular scale: fungi stretch a network of tendrils called arbuscules into a...
