Fair enough R but if I'm giving advice to a new grower I would say ph is a good idea lol. It eliminates that as a potential problem anyway.
No doubt bro, I know you wouldnt lead anyone astray. That being said its hard to argue your results bro. Stunning run this time around!I agree and that's why this time I left a disclaimer at the end of that 1st post.:)

Very trueIf me and you don't experiment we will never discover the truth.
Very good point!Fair enough R but if I'm giving advice to a new grower I would say ph is a good idea lol. It eliminates that as a potential problem anyway.
I threw my ph meter out 10 years ago and never looked backJust remember this was a test. I don't wanna come across as advocating for or against.
I like to change up each grow a little at a time Just to test ideas.
The results are just that results.
Whether good or bad it helps people make decisions.
Well we know you dont do hydro then...I threw my ph meter out 10 years ago and never looked back
I grow in a mix of organic compost & sandy loom soil a fifty fifty mix that i buy 10 yards at a time.I amend this with perlite & lime and feed with Mr Bs Green trees organic fertilizerWell we know you dont do hydro then...
Very well stated! And agreed..Even if I ran a medium that I didn't need to ph check, I still would. I'd rather potentially catch an issue early, rather than after its visibly noticeable. .....Kinda like wearing a seatbelt...you don't have to wear one to drive a car, or reach your destination, but if you ever need one you'll be glad you had it on.
but correct me if im wrong, but aint that what the lime does? Raise the ph of the soil so that it buffers highs/lows? And even if it moves it into an acceptable range, could it of still been even better ph range gotten even better results?I grow in a mix of organic compost & sandy loom soil a fifty fifty mix that i buy 10 yards at a time.I amend this with perlite & lime and feed with Mr Bs Green trees organic fertilizer
I think the amount of lime i use helps to maintain the correct ph though out the grow. From personal experience adjusting the PH has caused more problems than it has solved.but correct me if im wrong, but aint that what the lime does?

I think your doing exactly what you are supposed to do with the lime.. That is why its working for you.I think the amount of lime i use helps to maintain the correct ph though out the grow. From personal experience adjusting the PH has caused more problems than it has solved.
Hahaha! Excellent advice which I didn't follow!! Definitely did something like that :DLittle tip is to use sandwich size ziplok bags as humidity domes for those solo cups. They let a little air in around the edges but keep the humidity in. The best advice I can give you now is k.i.s.s don't try to do every method and technique you've read about all at once or you will end up here

As much as you want to do something or open the tent a million times right now from excitement, do .....nothing. That's right, less is more right now. They have soil, they have water. They just need time. Its really going to be hard to not mess with them but you will be rewarded for being lazy right now haha. Ask @EventHorizan how many times he had to tell me to leave my plants alone before I listened
im the english teacher that goes around smacking fingers when they wont leave the poor seedlings alone :)Hahaha! Excellent advice which I didn't follow!! Definitely did something like that :D
