Hey mate - sorry for the late reply I've been away. Thanks very much for your reply back. The advice you gave just then has been well received and I completely agree with and understand what you're saying. It makes no sense for me to grow in peat etc when I'm just transferring to soil anyway...

On that note, I just found something by AN that says 1ml/L should be 300ppm & 0.5ml/L should be 150ppm --- My plants are in the dark atm and don't want to go and measure the EC but I will do it in the morning on my own solutions

I've been using 0.5ml/L strength for the smaller plants and the "more hungry" ones I've begun to give 1ml/L. The ppm of the 1ml/L solution is quoted at ~600ppm so I imagine 0.5ml/L would be somewhere in between 300-400 ppm which should be okay I am guessing?

That is precisely my understanding of organic growing. How can you feed plants that are in an inert media with organic nutrients if the very thing that defines "organic" is a symbiosis between plant roots and bacteria/fungi which colonize the roots and control nutrient release from the...

I find your comment rather uneducational rather condescending, and frankly conflicting with a lot of the other advice I have found in books and from hydroponics shops. First of all, your reasoning concerning a nutrient lockout may be somewhat truthful however, that can't explain why all of the...

Hi The growing medium is standard peat pellets -- some others are in rockwool. The pH of the feed has been ~6.0 since germination. I'm using carbon filtered water which supposedly removes chlorine. The feed mixture has been sitting in with an air pump in it in the grow room and has been at room...

Interesting and thanks very much for that. It baffles me as to only one out of ~15 seedlings may be showing such a sign when they are all under the same light at the same proximity?

Hi I am fairly new to growing, however am not a complete beginner. I am currently experiencing a problem with one seedling only (out of a fair few). The strain is Cannatonic, germinated 2 weeks ago and has been growing well until the past 24-36 hours. Currently it is placed under 110W of cool...
