There's so much misinformation. I can find several links saying Gypsum is a pH buffer but when I dig into it and look on university websites it is explained more clearly. (Same basic sentence on a couple .edu sites I found so far)...

It will finish it's not common for a plant to just die. Even when the leaves are just ruined the plant still hangs on and finishes. Don't kill it, yes the damaged plants are more prone to problems and can spread those problems to healthy plants but honestly that hasn't ever happened to me.

I zoomed in and I really can't see anything dark on the bud except the third photo on the sugar leaf I do see a little dark area. How about breaking the bud open and checking it out does it look ok? Have you looked at your plant under normal fluorescent lighting to see if it is finished? I've...

DarkWizard021 the rate of death you described sounds like disease. The only other situation I can think of is water temps bordering on being completely anaerobic and likely exasperated by root rot. Although, it looks like you possibly didn't use enough hydrotron to block the light. If light gets...

I didn't even think you could get plants to live into the flowering phase with no drainage holes. No wonder your leaves are yellowing it is likely unable to grow into the water soggy area so they are root bound lol

Yes you need to control humidity, borrow the money if you have to but get one. I have a 50 pint dehumidifier which drains from the back, I run it outside the room and the only maintenance I ever do is a little bit of bleach in the storage tank every few months. It has lasted 7 years now I think

I too shopped at Alibaba and found their prices to be higher than my local providers. I love citizen specs but at those prices I decided to pass for now in the hopes the prices will drop. I found a great deal on an assembled light with 6 x cxb3590 3500K 80CRI, it was 735'ish shipped to the USA...

Many of us use hydroton in netcups to fill the holes that we aren't using. It can be bleached/reused and is perfect for covering unused aero cup holes. It's simple to use simply fill a netcup full of hydroton and place it in the gaping hole.

Muskegman are you using a compost that you sourced which was largely based on manure? I was having similar problems everything was lush green in veg, flipped and the edges burned, leaves got crispy. The key was my soil was super acidic making mg unavailable of all things. I could test that...

When you water your plants you should water them until there is 20% run off coming from the bottom and never allow them to sit in a tray of water. (overflow pan always dry) Then you allow them to dry until they are very light so light they almost feel dry!! But not so dry that the soil is...

Well at least they aren't spider mites. Many use spinosad late in flower but many others say they aren't much more than an nuisance recommending to just hose the plants off with something like this https://www.planetnatural.com/product/bug-blaster/ 24 bucks is a little rich, just showing you...

Orphan ok I'm with it now fermented plant extract. I would try doing these experiements but I'm already at capacity for experiementing lol

Ok yeah with coco we expect this it is what I described above solvable by adding a CaMg product generally as recommended for mature plants. Yeah too bad your pH wasn't magically well buffered to 5.8 naturally still, tap water can't be trusted at all actually and I use reverse osmosis. Anyway I...

The lights could help some. I was thinking, they are freshly transplanted so the roots are few compared to the amount of dirt, so she will take awhile to dry out. In the interim the fan blowing over the planters is a likely humidifier especially with fabric planters. Anything thing I noted is...

We are big on CBD here, I originally grew it to help a friends wife with a hospice project but I kept the strain and have been growing/using it ever since. So far my experience is limited to ACDC 20 CBD to 1 THC but I have to admit the flavor is unappreciated so I mix it into something else I'm...

Actually almost any of the little ebay 5 stage filters will strip your water bare, so pure you don't wanna drink it. LiquaGen is decent I just replaced my unit but I don't think the pH alkaline filters are helpful because the pH won't drop back down to neutral. I tried 2 or 4 drops of pH down...

Either

It's not terrible but needs light I think. Don't give nutes until the cotyledons wither but it looks like you're doing on so far. The light should be as close as possible without it feeling excessively warm, like you could rest your inner arm at that height for hours. The fan helps us walk the...

I'm not helping for anything free I think you should use those to learn besides you shouldn't get caught up in sending seeds. I didn't know what Blumat autowatering system were I think I will try one so thanks for that. Regarding your apparent Calcium deficiency I looked at what I could in the...

I just like the idea of a small amount of wood ashes + oyster shell flour better for buffering acidic compost. I don't really have a no no statement to make about dolomite but when researching materials I liked this solution better. Partly I grow OG dominantly and my strains like Calcium so I...
