I rarely ever use it. I think why they're happier with the citric sometimes is that it helps chealate the extra Ca in my water and helps flush it it of the root zone a little. That's why I started using it to begin with. But I can't say for sure. Still experimenting.You could also start watering with Humic acids and forget about having to use citric acid to pH. Humic acids will help buffer the pH of the soil wether it’s acidic or alkaline! Plus as an added bonus Humic acids will bind up heavy metals, boost soil life by feeding the microbes, bind up salts, stimulate root growth, increase nutrient uptake, help tackle disease, improve drought tolerance, & improve the soil structure. Seems like an all around win to me, it’s truly amazing stuff which is why I now religiously use Humic’s & my girls absolutely love it! And when I say religiously I’m talking EVERY water from start to finish.
*FYI be careful using Humic’s if your in a heavily amended soil as it will unlock the amendments much quicker & could lead to problems

Humics man!
Is that the Mondi thermometer?
Liquid humic or dry like Down to Earth?
Haha. Ya, the battery's been dead for awhile though. I don't know why I still have it there really, lol.
You must not have kids lmfao
This some good shit right here.....
Haven't read all the posts, but anyhoo... Plant turgidity reduces between waterings, and the increased turgidity from watering proceeds upwards and it is the discrepancy in turgidity near the meristem where newly-formed, easily distorted leaves are that causes the softer petioles, in particular to, er, 'act up'...
Your hot water added ppms, could be from Ca buildup in your hot water heater.
Just ordered a Key of this humic acid. Backorder shipment from Columbia.

Be careful with it. Humics are powerful shit.Just ordered a Key of this humic acid.

What's a good starting dose on humic? I'm a bit stumped on my 5g fan leaf fades...can't figure out which problem im having and i wanna try humic and epsom salt one at a time and see how each affects
Calcium mostly
Great advice. I'm always really cautious at first. I'll do like 1/4 tsp per gal when I try it. But the Kilos are on backorder so it's gonna be awhile before I try this stuff.
I'm inclined to agree. The plant looks great. The twisting of the leaves is likely due to air pressure. Rotate the plants, and either distance the fan, or turn it down.
What humics are you using?
No clue yet, just gonna go to HD see what they got. If not ill putter down to this other garden store and see what they have.
Thanks man.
