Thanks a lot everyone! I went with AC Infinity's 6 inch cloud line (non pro version). It has a speed controller but I think it's not app controllable which is not too important for me. I will use it with a 48x48x78 tent and I thought it would be better to have a slightly larger fan rather than...

Thanks for the information, just to clarify, the pink bacteria was growing in the tank of the humidifier, not the bathroom itself. I just ran the humidifier with vinegar in the bathroom for ventilation purposes.

I'm trying to purchase a duct fan, but I don't know the differences between these 3 styles. Which one should I choose? This is the most common style I've been in seeing in other people's tents. 4 inch 190 CFM for $48, 6 inch 390 CFM for $60 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DXYMGOM/...

I got that pink mold (?) type of stuff in my ultrasonic humidifier, I rinsed everything in white vinegar, filled the bottom part with vinegar and let it sit for a couple of hours, it was fine for a couple of days, but pink stuff spread again. What I finally did was I filled it with half vinegar...

I think my temps and humidity are alright, lights on around high 70s, sometimes hits low 80s, lights off ~65F, humidity is around %45-50, sometimes I forget to refill the humidifier and it drops to high 30s, low 40s. I gave them plenty of water (about a liter each for 3 gal pots) and I added a...

I'm going to up that because I think my soil dries out which leads to water leaking from the sides of the fabric pots, not sure if this is what is called soil becoming hydrophobic. I wasn't, because I've been told living soil don't require pH adjustments. I finally got a pH pen, calibrated it...

Just checked the tap water pH. It's 7.4 right out of tap, the tap water I let sit for about 48 hours reads 6.9 pH. I'll get some pH down or something like that to make sure it's between 6 to 6.5 pH. But I'm not sure, 7 pH shouldn't create this much of a problem. I really don't know, maybe it's...

Thanks again! I've been doing some aerated compost teas with worm castings, Bio-Live and fish hydrolysate, I also used these three for top dressing and watering every other week or so. Nothing seem to work so far. Although I was using Bio-Live in teaspoon measurements not tablespoons, because I...

I may have recently slacked on filling the humidifier and doubled the light intensity which corresponds to development of these brown spots. Since then I've been keeping RH around %55 at around 70-75F and reverted back the light intensity change. Brown spots stopped developing, so that may have...

Thanks for taking time to share your opinions. I REALLY appreciate that you took time to look at the soil mix I'm using. I don't want to blame the soil mix but I also tried a lot of things and compared to my first grow with Ocean Forest, this feels like a pain in the back. When I was doing Ocean...

Thank you, I am a little confused why people think I'm growing in coco though. Coco just replaced the sphagnum peat in this mixture, the rest (compost and amendments) are the same as a living soil recipe. Doesn't that make it a soil grow? Am I mistaken to assume this?

I initially purchased this mix; https://www.dirtcraftorganics.com/gforce Then I started getting chlorosis and people suggested my plants were starving so I changed from distilled water to bottled drinking water (6.5 pH, 25ppm) and also added Bio-Live and quality local worm castings into the...

Thanks for taking time to reply, I appreciate it. If you think I'm doing something wrong, would you mind elaborating a little bit, so I don't do it anymore instead of just saying "the thing that you're doing wrong and not aware that you're doing wrong never works"? The soil mix I purchased...

Thank you, I've never seen nutrient burn like this and looking at the lower leaves I always thought I was on the low side of nutrient content in the soil since they're also growing very slow, compared to my previous salt based grows. I'm super confused. I'll upload more general shot photos of...

Could you help me diagnose what might be going on with my plant? I just doubled the light intensity the other day so I'm thinking it may be a light burn but also it doesn't look like all the symptoms of a light burn. I'm talking about the brown spots, not the yellowing on the serrated edges on...

The website says "1 cu. ft. compressed pack bag contains 2 cu. ft. of potting soil" Do you know if PRO-MIX HP (or similar bales) are compressed as well? Should I consider 3.8 cu. ft. HP as 7.6 cu. ft.?

Thank you, is this the red one you tried? Interesting that the ingredients look pretty much the same, I wonder why one is organic and the other one isn't.

It's 1cu. ft. compressed for $12, my local gardening store just bumped the price of 3.8 cu. ft. PRO-MIX to $62. So even if I buy 4 of them, to match the quantity that's still $48. I should have bought some PRO-MIX HP when they were still $50 so I wouldn't have to venture out to this one. Another...

Looking at the price tag it's even cheaper than buying peat moss itself and ingredients don't look bad. Sphagnum peat moss (60-70% by volume) Perlite Coir Gypsum Ground Limestone (for pH adjustment) Wetting agent Mycorrhizae From your comment I infer that you didn't have a big issue either. I...

I need to transplant two from solo cups but I'm on a tight budget. I have these in my local Walmart for $12 for 2cuft. It's OMRI certified, it has mycorrhizae etc. What's the catch with this blend? Can I just use this and amend it with EWC, Bio-Live and fish hydrolysate and be good to go or is...
