LoL at watering like a meth addict. Use large green saucers from hydrofarm and your fine.Air pots are the shit!! just don't garden like a meth addict and take your time and they will repay you. You can grow trees ina 3gal air pot and coco . Try it out your not gonna believe what you see.
If you're using chemical salts, then you've got to know both pH and EC. If you're growing using organic, soil food web methods, then you don't need either device. You feed the soil instead.
Since initial capital investment is an issue, I think you should consider going organic soil.
Absolutely true! the soil must have certain basic elements and food available for microbes. However, most all the papers I've read state fairly unequivocally that when not interfered with, assuming well-mineralized soils, microbes *and* plants can play a huge role in determining/adjusting soil pH in the rhizosphere, which is where all the action we're after happens, yes?
Yes, with organic fertilizers you can over-fertilize, but if you focus on feeding the soil this will almost never happen. ;) Mostly, pay attention to Ca.
Rhizosphere, use Google Scholar, try a searching using a string like, say... "plant pH rhizosphere adjust." I'll post up a search and hits here, too.yes yes yes and yes, not sure how many things you said but all of them were right
I have never read anything about plants balancing the pH of the soil their in unless it's a perennial, such as a pine tree, when it's needles drop and decompose they acidify the soil, which helps the plant uptake iron manganese boron copper and zinc, micro nutrients pine trees demand.... I would love to read some PR articles about how annual plants to do it....
Actually I was just thinking about crop rotation, is the reason why the plants have to be rotated because we don't let them so their natural thing.... In nature generations of annual plants live in the same place and they become symbiotic with the soil like you were saying adjusting pH and nutrients to it's liking, even mother plants "Sharing" mycrorhysol bacteria with their children to feed them. In a 6 month grow at the longest I can't see how it would have the time to adjust much....
You are gonna be seriously pleased with Next Gen ISS. I've smoked it before it has the most divine floral skunk flavor. Good pickup!I ordered:
