is it calcitic lime or dolomitic lime?

you see how your misters are spraying toward the sides, can you fix it to where they spray more towards the roots instead?

You can leave Stephanie alone. Im sure her tips will get burned soon but when you learning it happens. Youll also learn in hydro you need a ppm/ec and ph pen. All important when running hydro. The sisters in the pots. Just feed them plain water for awhile then resume feeding at half strength.

You've got talent

I'll admit when I first started reading this thread I said to myself "this guy chose his monicker perfect" but as I read on I saw your true colors. Your effort will be rewarded with some kind bud, keep up the good work
