hey riddleme, lol its me again... i bought a bag of Pennington Epsom Salt Plant Nutrient, and also a bag of Miracle Grow Organic Choice Bone Meal 6-9-0. what dosage of each would you recommend in a 2 liter bottle? not sure if you remember my situation, but on my larger plant, the leaves are starting to cup under on the sides, and the other, my lil darlin, has burnt up looking new growth. also, the guy at wally world said bone meal will add calcium... is this true? it made sense to me since bones=calcium... but im sure youve used both products before, so what do you recommend?? btw guys, anything RIDDLEME tells you, you can take it to the bank!!! give him rep!!!!! it wont let me give him anymore lolz

So your pH starts at 5.1? I would keep it around 5.8 constantly.

Your pics are showing a calcium defielciency. That's what that twisting
and contorting is. This is due to the low pH. Which causes certain micro
elements to become so soluble that you experience lockouts. When magnesium
is too available, calcium is locked out automaticaly. Lock in you pH around 5.8,
top it off with pH'd water and don't let it slip too far, citric acid for pH down is great.
But hard to use in hydro, nitric acid or phospuric acid will provide a longer balance.
I would do nitric acid due to the fact that there is plethora of phosporus in your ferts.

well im actually using the ph down thing i have to check it regularly but all is good for now and well i just added some nirvana rich with cal and mag hope its going better man but hey thanx for the help yea my ph does start at that but wen i add ph'd water it i make sure that it only goes up .1 since so it wouldn be much off a dramatic increase and stress out thye plant

An FYI, .1 pH shift is actually a shift of 10x the hydroxide/hydrogen ions so
6.0 is 10x different than 5.9, etc

Is silica in a closet very bad for plants? I put one in with my plants to get rid of humidity and I think that is what dried them out. Since I moved it into another room the plants perked up

they are ok if you have a high humidity problem but if humidity is normal, yeah could cause problems,,,sounds like you should leave it out to me

Sounds like a boy, but no way to be sure without pic's

4 plants, 24/7 light. there's mold in the soil?
Click to expand...
mold in soil is an indication you are over watering, humidity is too high

scrap the top layer (1/2 inch) throw it away and let it dry our might help to have a fan blowing at the soil

the bone meal is going to be slow release, best to blend it into the soil before planting (or transplanting) you can spread some on top of the soil but it will take awhile to start working for ya

with regular epsom salts I do 1 teaspon to a gallon, but since you got a garden one I would do have of what the instructions say

hey shrubs,
just makin sure i understood what i read lol
so 6.0 is 100x diffrent than 7.0 correct?
Click to expand...
Incorrect, it is exponential, 6.0 is 10x different than 6.1,
which is 10x different than 6.2. Which means 6.0 is 10
to the tenth times different than 7.0, or like 100000000x different

ok, i got 6 female beauties, 5 of em have started flowering with loads of white pistils at the tops, but one of them started but then has stopped and has started producing branches instead of white pistils, even though i have kept em all in the same amout of light and darkness.

btw: i am growing them outdoors in big pots, i bring them inside everynight to give em 12 to 13 hours of darkness.

Nothing I would do, but you are following in the steps of many growers I have seen or followed, you should be fine, similar to how lacygirl grows and she just started a great harvest, you should take a look her grow is textbook awesome!
