I'd look into my Ph. what soil are you in, what light's ..........?

 

[kushman]

Dont know the PH auto ordered a tester last night. Only soil available here is earthgro and miracle gro haha. Lights 2 40 watt cfls 1 33 watt cfl all with reflectors. Went with the organic earth gro cause heard mixed opinions about miracle gro. Heres the contents of my soil. Hypnum peat, sand, perlite, aged pine bark and my favorite forest products and compost haha. I grew regular bag seed pretty tall with this soil but never wanted to finish it cause i didnt want regs.

Strain is Afghan Auto Mass. I watered her last night. She seems to eat good soil tends to dry out pretty quick. hmm what else got here in a 3 gallon pot planted her straight in.

dig it up and replant this one. Try 1/2 Miracle Grow mixed with 1/4 vermiculite and 1/4 perlite only use water for a bit and see what happens.

Do not dig it up leve it where it is!!!!!!!! miracle grow blows time releas is not good....I think your gonna find your ph is out of wack, 6.5 is optimum...what water do you water with?...

you'll probably need this also

Rough Calculation Guide:

Here's some good info on ph.....
If your runoff pH is higher than your starting pH, use this equation to determine your soil pH:*
Soil pH = Runoff pH + Difference

If your runoff pH is lower than your starting pH, us this equation:
Soil pH = Runoff pH - Difference.

For example, say your the starting pH of your solution before it goes in is 6.5 and the pH of your runoff is 7.0. The difference is +0.5, so using the above equation:
Soil pH = 7.0 + 0.5*
Soil pH = 7.5

If your starting pH is 6.5 and your runoff is 6.0, your difference is -0.5 and using the above equation:
Soil pH = 6.0 - 0.5
Soil pH = 5.5

Ty for the input fellas. I been using tap water auto should i start using bottled water?

 

[BUSHDOKTER]

If you could let your tap water sit out at least a day or bubble it to get rid of the chlorine..the tap might be fine after..could be the chlorine in it..hope your ph meter comes quickly...

bottled water still gonna be 7 to 8 range..is your tap water well water or city? I use city water but I bubble for 48 to 72 hours get all the clorine out...
I ph with viniger to go down and backingsoda to go up.. you'll have to ph your water every watering/feed..my city water comes out of the tap at between 11 and 12........
