    Is this seabird guano too low on potassium for the flowering phase?

    Potassium Sulphate or Potassium Silicate works really well. I use both. The silicate is nice because Silica is definatey something you want to be feeding your plants throughout it's life cycle. Then the Sulphate for a serious potassium boost. I use this at around 30-45g per a plant every...

    chlorinated tap water for plants

    I just stumbled on this. So if you do not want to take the time to watch this, I just want to highlight that using tap water does carry risk with it. It does effect microbes, although it might not effect all of them, it definitely does effect some of them. Chloramine and Chlorine are can be...

    Concerning - potassium deficiency?

    If you really want to boost your K then you can look at Potassium Sulphate. What will help is if you feed the soil some Humic and Fulvic acid. I cant give you the exact science behind its impact but I have heard numerous growers talk about its benefits. I know it impacts the soil biology in a...

    Check this out. In the video he shows you the desired amounts of each nutrient to work towards. You can use this to compare. Bacteria like a balanced Ph of 7 so if you are looking at creating a bacterially dominated soil, which is ideal for cannabis, I do not think you need to adjust your Ph. I...

    Concerning - potassium deficiency?

    Are you still seeing a decline in your leaf health? I would remove them as a general practise but if your plant is already struggling I would not add stress into the mix. That is my opinion but not sure how other people may think. Other than adding the beneficials, I would just let the plants...

    Concerning - potassium deficiency?

    So I would not be too worried here. The damage here could be related to your original issues that you had. I have noticed that once there is an issue with these systems the damage that the plants experiences will be over a period of time. Remember that when you used synthetic nutrients in a more...

You can check them out on Youtube as well where they take you, step by step, through their grow. They have done like 4 seasons so there is 4 cycles worth of video content for you...

    Concerning - potassium deficiency?

    Its really hard to tell if it was the ph additive that threw everything off. I think you have the next steps here so just go with that and see what happens.

    Concerning - potassium deficiency?

    Best thing you can do. That is the thing with these systems, you have to leave the control in the hands of the biology. I tried a blended approach, adding organic soluble nutrients and it fucked things up so badly. I once did an entire run and got 8g per a plant. Hard one to learn but that is...

    Concerning - potassium deficiency?

    If you are really worried about the soil being overloaded the best thing you can do is to maybe bring in some type of a cover crop. If you go with the other advice given here and think there is too much Nitrogen in the soil, look at throwing in a crop that will help with that. I cannot give you...

    Concerning - potassium deficiency?

    Firstly, I would ease up on the amounts that you are using. When you are buying these craft soils they are generally aimed at having the target nutritional levels required for a complete run. Unless you are building your soil yourself, the frequency of top dressing you are following is a bit too...

    Why are my grows so slow?

    I just thought about my post bro I honestly I apologize if I seemed a bit harsh. All I am trying to bring across is that cultivation away from 3part nutrients takes quite a bit of work. Its complex and definately an eye opener to just how much synthetics take away your need for all these...

    Lilly Miller Super Sweet Sweet Lime

    I would be very careful at trying to save a buck on your inputs. If you soil health is way more worth a few bucks. I cheaped out and bought mushroom compost thinking its better and boy was I wrong. It took me 2 bad runs to realize the issue. So yeah man saving a couple of bucks lost me big...

    Watering amount & frequency in living soil

    I think that is what makes the Living Soil approach so great is that its an endless road of research. I mean I can understand why guys dont do the soil grows. To get right is a lot more work than relying on already made solutions. I am not slamming synthetics here, each technique has its lefts...

    Do I absolutely need to let my soil sit/cook?

    I have had issues with just throwing my plants into newly mixed soils. I have found deficiencies arise in the first week or so, the plants stunt and then after me adding certain beneficial and the soil "cooks" the plants begin to recover. In comparison, when I put clones into pots that have had...
