4. Blindly adding cal/mag supplement, further complicating nute lockout?
I do wonder if I should add some calcitic lime if my runoff PH shows low at next feed?
Looks like DE and Perlite applied to surface has stopped gnats, guess I can throw Mosquito bits in trash. Next grow starts with perlite top and bottom, simple and effective. Love it!
I need someone to hold my hand and tell me if you think I'm going to be able to bring this girl to a successful harvest? I'm on week 8 and I have another 3 to 4 weeks according to what I've read of Sour D.
