I was looking at the PAR chart for both the Mars ts3000 & the HLG 550 v2 RSPEC & they both seem to have similar numbers. In that case, does the wattage still matter?

I have 2 600w HPS currently in my 5x5, but I want to switch to LED because my energy bill is crazy. I've been looking at a few different lights, but I'm a little overwhelmed by the options out there. My current top choice is the Mars TS 3000W, but wanted to see if anybody had any better...

I've been letting the pot get bone dry before feeding. The "before" pic was actually taken immediately after feeding & the after pic was taken 20 minutes later

I'm a pretty nooby grower & I started noticing my plants sometimes twist upwards after feeding. The twisting goes down after a few hours, but it does look odd. Is this normal? This is in a 1 gallon FFOF being fed RO water Before After Feed

Would adding CalMag to FFOF kill the microbes in the soil?

I have some young plants in a solo cup filled with FFOF. I've been feeding it RO water only & I believe I'm starting to see a CalMag deficiency. Does FFOF need a CalMag amendment if you're only feeding RO water? I was thinking of adding a little bit of powdered dolamite lime, but wasn't sure if...

I have some Afghan in solo cups filled with FFOF & it looks healthy to me; however, it's 2 most bottom leaves are yellowing & looking like they will fall off some time. Could this be a nitrogen deficiency, despite them constantly praying & not really looking pale. I thought FFOF was more than...

Nope, only feeding distilled water

Nice thanks for the input! I'm using Great White at my transplant zone.

I have some Afghan in a 1-gallon pot sitting on a bottom 1/3 Subcool Super Soil & a top layer of FFOF & FFLW as my base soil. I didn't let the super soil bake, instead I inoculated it with some compost tea & then transplanted out of my solo cup into my 1 gallon. She hasn't been happy since the...

I mixed up about 15 gallons of subcools soil recipe, sprayed it down with some aerated compost tea, then put it in a plastic storage bin with the top slightly cracked. What's the best way to store this? Can I leave this in my garage as is, or do I really need to keep mixing it every week?

No nutrients mixed with the coco. I believe it's just coco & perlite. I'm using Royal Gold Tupur. And noted with the humidifier!

Hey, I have this one in a 1-gallon fabric pot with coco soil. 6 days ago I fed it GH nutrients using the instructions on the bottle for seedlings (1 tsp of each in a 1 gallon) PH'd to 5.8. She started growing rapidly after this feed but also started to develop white spots that eventually...

@DonnyTinyHands haha yeah, I'm not going to lie I've always thought that myself. I thought that was the point of keeping it aerobic so the good bacteria would survive & the bad stuff would die out. Going to try to keep it simple on the next brew and see what happens

@DonnyTinyHands @4ftRoots ah that's interesting. I've been told I need to thoroughly sanitize the compost tea brewer so it doesn't start developing any bad bacteria/pathogens.

Any recommendations for cleaning & storing my compost tea brewer? Whenever I brew compost tea, I scrub the bucket, air stones, and tubing with hot water & dish soap, rinse heavily with water to remove all soap, then fill up 5-gallon bucket with hot water + 2 tsp of bleach. I let this sit...

It's 20 inches away. 600W Vivosun LED. I had that same though, so I tried to move it as high up as possible, but 20 inches is the furthest I can get it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077P386Y1

@kingromano here's some more pictures

Does anybody know what could be causing these dark purple/pink edges on my fan leaves?

@Sfrigon 1 I've been hearing a lot of people mention getting fat fans from their sativa dominant hybrids too. Super interesting. I wonder what causes that especially if they don't have any afghan roots.
