Not completely. Multiple symptoms, is generally synonymous with ph problems. Salt buildup, over or under watering, etc... all changes the ph in a soil grow. I just wanted to offer the perspective bc I've dealt with those type problems in controlled environments (to test and see if ph should be...

It is 100% a over nute or buildup prob. Not that you have too much... but that it's not used fast as its applied, and it gathers, dropping ph horribly. Esp when you have a soil like ocean forest that does not have buffers that last really long. I've seen the end of the season basically just...

Big bloom IS organic. SOME of FF line is not, but BB Def is. They also don't bake their soils, so u gain lots of beneficial microbes in their soil. To correct others... mixing the dry Fox farms ferts w the liquid is NOT the way to do it. Their own feeding charts say to use a lot more than u...

If it's only the lower growth, it does not tell u definitively. This is definitely an alkalinity problem. The spotting is spot on... and it's typical for those who repot their high alkalinity soil... It must be sprayed off the roots as best as possible or the lower leaves will remain in this...

Maybe the larger aggregate versions. The finely pulverized dolomite acts fast and does EXACTLY what is posted here. Lower leaves begin curling in ward, yellowing and necrotic spots break out on the lower leaves first. It's bad. And all due to high alkalinity... even if your PH measure is spot...

I agree completely. But when a seed bank Seuss they will guarantee something if you follow their method, it's difficult to resist. I figured, they'd know their product best. Why not try their way? Worst case I document and get replacement seeds to do my own way. So that's why I went with paper...

I'm not sure what doesn't make sense, but I've done it under lab conditions. There are no PH issues, as I take a sample of each mix I create (lab has multiple soil types from FFOF to the nutrients Lacking seed starters soil). I take my sample of a Dixie party cup, and put drainage holes, then...

Yeah I agree. I tried to carefully examine what was going on with it in the medium though, and there's just no growth. It popped, stayed too form a tap root, but ultimately just expended her energy b4 being able to grow it. Shitty. Especially when buying them at CKS. Yeah, so far 100% success...

Does anyone have any advice for seeds that begin to pop, stick out a tiny bit(maybe a mm), and just seem like they are having a difficult time getting out of the shell. They've been through soaking, paper towel, etc. They are all fem seeds and popped in a day of going into germ. Would it be...

When I hear peat and seedlings or seeds dying, I immediately think ph. Most peat mixes I've tested (using a cup with drainage and catching runoff to test) end up with an acidic ph. Usually I stick with specific "light" soils or "seed starter" types to avoid this. It's much easier to take a...

Yeah the fine grind feels finer than sand and works immediately. When adding to water it does not like to fully mix as easily though... so keep these jugs separate also. When adding a tbsp or two, it will still collect and settle to the bottom. So if you do not rinse these VERY thoroughly, you...

Mg lockout? It could be ph problems if the leaves actually curl into a curly-cue circular type shape (Like a stereotypical snail shell). The Mg would be an upward bend but the ph would actually curl in on itself. Heat stresses appear all over the leaf margins usually. I dealt with a huge ph...

That's bc it's only really worth your time when you put a LOT of time and effort into training them. When you use a method that creates a VERY strong feed system (roots and lower stalk that splits), you'll be able to revert and gain something that you'll never get from a clipping or seed... a...

I just came across this journal/question, and it is the first time I seen anyone with the exact same problem/anomaly I encountered. This is crazy. I too, went with FF GB, then to TB, and never had problems b4. Flipped it, switched to a very light 30% dose of TB. Wasnt checking ph bc no tester at...

I really can't speak to that, b/c I never deal directly with a website and I don't pay retail. The guys were extremely helpful, so customer service is A+. They knew what they are taking about and clearly researched their design. But I paid just under $450 for two bloom spectrum G8 240 models...

Half of a decade is not leaps and bounds ahead... but as I mention, there's higher end brands and less efficient ones, and that's the free market. Electricity going through a diode has not changed that much, and the angled tech they use for the lighting is still relevant. It's not like they are...

That's ridiculous. All brands use Chinese parts for hardware components. Besides the fact G8 uses no extra lensing (no loss due to absorption), they have proven to be one of the most affordable, reputable American distrubutors to hit the market. Although they do not share the same overpriced...

To answer your question of why our eyes perceive colors, it's a result of different wavelengths being absorbed and reflected by objects. The wavelengths absorbed are not perceived while the ones reflected beam into our pupil and the light wavelengths are refracted to hit the cones in our...
