    Aqua Master brand pH measurement tools?

    Hi folks, my local grow shop has completely ditched Hanna after they were informed Hanna's warranty has been even further reduced to mere months for their pH pen products, and have brought in a new line that is rather expensive; a European brand called AquaMaster It looks to be a high priced...

    Plant has developed a deficiency, what is it?

    I am using tap water, with these stats: and I pH my water to 6.5 even though they say pH is not needed I do it anyways because out of the tap it comes out around 8! All plants are equipped with functioning Blumat carrots and 3 drippers - they seem to be quite happy up until literally now...

    Plant has developed a deficiency, what is it?

    It was the lower leaves and is making it's way up! I just added a tablespoon of epsom salts to 5L of water, is this typically a suitable amount to experiment with? Sadly I'm not aware of anything I can do about overfertilizing them as I do not feed them salts and was using the food from the...

    Can plain greek yogurt be used to create anything worthwhile?

    Kind of a random question, my apologies, but these are the things a stoner ponders randomly while eating breakfast. Every single day, I eat berries and greek yogurt as part of my daily routine. As a result, I end up with a fair bit of leftover bits of plain yogurt in the bottom of containers...

    Best alternatives to maxi line?

    I cannot even fathom the gigantic mess it would make moving it into a bucket from the bag ! I can imagine a poop scented atomic dust bomb exploding into the air ‍‍‍ Good idea with grinding it but again must be some messy business! I'll see what I can come up with.. just gave it to a plant in...

    Best alternatives to maxi line?

    I just found my old huge bag of MegaCrop 1-part and tried to make a solution today. I guess because it's so old it's hardened into a clump, and I had to re-break it up with a gardening shovel and swirl it around. I definitely agree it's dirty stuff, it's so unpleasant to handle and stinky and...

    When diluting hard water with RO is extra magnesium via epsom salts typically required?

    That's crazy.. I know we have really hard water but I wouldn't have guessed it was that bad .. I guess that river that runs through the area is very brown looking indeed .. nice to meet ya man !

    When diluting hard water with RO is extra magnesium via epsom salts typically required?

    I believe it's just a term for pre amended soil This is the exact product: https://blackswallowsoil.com/product/kis-mix-blended-soil-651 Although the name of the seller has living soil in the name I do not grow living soil, takes way too big of a container! I water in microbes every few...

    When diluting hard water with RO is extra magnesium via epsom salts typically required?

    Hey neighbor!! I come into Cambridge all the time, mostly for the beer and food at Gators Tail Holy crap, 600 ppm! I wonder how yours is almost twice as hard, especially when you guys have a usable water source! Wow

    When diluting hard water with RO is extra magnesium via epsom salts typically required?

    Thank you, I can look into those for certain! I notice it says hydroponic and I grow in supersoil, would these still be a good choice? Thanks again

    When diluting hard water with RO is extra magnesium via epsom salts typically required?

    Not really - the crazy thing I have learned, as a newbie, is that the forums can be both a good or bad source of information.. and above all else - incredibly confusing and it seems very few growers seem to agree on things.. It's really weird I can't tell you HOW MANY occasions, on various...

    When diluting hard water with RO is extra magnesium via epsom salts typically required?

    We live in the area of an environmental disaster in the WW2 days and our water arrives via pipeline, because the native aquifers are still not deemed safe! I'd assume they are all using the same water from the region, at least until out of this geographical area
