I am thinking of trying out promix as opposed to the mix I put together. I am sick of mixing it up!!! I'm religious about PHing everything my plants get fed. So if you are a "you don't need to PH" person, I respectfully disagree and please don't say as much. So if using ProMix, do I get the...

T= tablespoon

Plants will be awfully close to the lights... Go taller or go LED...

My mix: Earthgrow Potting Soil (cheap shit without time release nutes) from Ace Hardware Perlite from Farm supply place Vermiculite from farm supply Peat Moss - Home Depot Dolomite Lime - any of the above Roughly equal parts of all but the lime. It goes in about 2T per gallon of the rest...

I ran it once. Very fine line timewise before it gets quite green.

I grow all LED (A51) an would not go back. Once I got everything dialled in, it works great. NO heat. No ballasts. No big electricity pulls. I converted from CFL a couple years ago so can't compare to HID. For cost, I looked at it vs buying weed so payoff is after one run. I think it is a...

Most "kits" are dilution oriented. They all have the same characterisitics - lots of water to dilute, B vitamin to get some color in, and creatine to add weight (specific gravity) to the sample which makes it not show as diluted.

He is totally wrong. It is totally legal and made from industrial hemp. As for how effective it is, that is another story...

Very cool. I may need to try one.

You want to let them dry out fairly well between feedings. I use nutes every other watering, about once a week. Most nute companies have a feed schedule on their websites..

I believe Sunshine Mix is technically not soil and you want to go lower like hydro. But if you don't know where your PH is, that may very well be your issue. Also, the companies always recommend too high of nute levels. You want to ease into it, starting at about 25% the rec dose.

If you are a new grower, you should simplify... Too many different nutes. My rec would be dyna gro Foliage Pro and Protekt - start to finish, Psst some pics so we can see. You may need Calmag. Also, you did not mention PH of what you water/feed...

Why not use tap and why not use PH down? Dyna nutes (Gro, Bloom, FP) all bring down PH. Protekt brings it up.

About 6-7 weeks, depending on strain. They don't look very far into flower...

What Will said. Get real on the light needed for so many plants. IF saving on electricity is the concern, then you need to invest in LEDs. But for 20 plants that won't be cheap. Bottom line, you can't beat the plant's needs.... 300W of CFL - yes about 4 plants. You will have huge stretch and...

ProTekt not a problem. It does raise PH but one dose at high PH isn't going to do anything. You didn't show the whole plant or state age. If young, do be careful with flush as you are really just releasing more nutrients.

Leaf spots look like nuted water that splashed on them.

Saying soil is organic means nothing. If it is a soil with a lot of nutes in it, then wouldn't flushing just release more??? With those small plants, you don't need all that light. Fluoro sit closer than LED. As stated before, I would put the LED 18" above the plants. Trust me, I only grow LED...

I am guessing is is light burn. Raise that sucker to about 18" above for now.... Plus they do look small for nutes. What's in your soil?

I'll say that A51 puts out great lights that deliver as promised. These are brand new models but I am very happy with my two older ones.
