To be honest you should find the nearest hydro store or nursery and call them.. Ask if they carry Fox Farm Oceant Forest Potting soil or Happy Frog Potting Soil.. Both are awesome to start out with.. Also ask if they carry the Fox Farm Nutrient trio pack.. The soil will be about $21 bucks and nutes are like $50 for all 3 bottles.. That right there is all you really need to farmyes I'm in the US. If you could suggest a plant food that I could use that would cover all of the bases that would be awesome
You need to know the kelvin range.. Look at the box and on the side or the back it has how much you save and all that.. Well right there is a 2500, 4000,5000, 6500 k.. Find out which you have..are you suggesting that I transplant them into some better soil? I am running 2 CFL lights per plant with 825 lumens each. I was having an issue with the container getting too hot. It was pushing 85 degrees inside and this soil temperature was around 80 degrees. Which is why I now have the doors open with a fan oscillating on them. and I was afraid that there may be a ventilation problem.
That is 1 think I wish I would've learned when I first started.. I just thought the bag had enough perlite but you should add some more..Also, with any soil, mix in perlite. It will help with your drainage. Those pots, I have used. U should put extra holes in the bottom for drainage. Those pots will hold water in the bottom and you don't want that.
Fox Farms Ocean Forest and perlite.
Stay away from miracle grow, IMO.
Being that your putting it back into soil do not knock the dirt off the root ball.. You can massage it in your hands to loosen it up but I wouldn't knock it all offokay, so I have one more stupid question and then I will leave you alone haha. when transplanting do I knock off as much done as possible before putting them in the new soil?
I've seen some.people who weight it on a bathroom scale when its dry then weigh it when its after a feeding so you will knowLet those babies dry out also. The roots thrive when the soil starts to dry, they stretch to look for moisture.
Strong root ball, makes your plant.
Just test the weight by picking up when you water. If you think it needs water, it usually can go another day.
Anytime brother.. We are here to help you outagain, thank you all so much for helping a brother out. this is something I've always wanted to do but I've never had the time or opportunity
Can you give us a few more pics?They look worse today. I am going to get them in new soil today. Should I clip the effected leaves?
