Planning my first grow. A few questions.

It means that plant is probably going to be your runt.

Just keep giving it only water, and don't over water it.

Should be ok. :hump:

Guyyss, the other plant is starting to turn yellowish like the other one too. :S What's going wrong?

And it isn't the standing water. I had just watered them when I took the picture and it hadn't soaked in yet.

^^^^^^^

Correct, get your pH around 6.2-6.8

You could get some pH down in basically any pool/aquarium section of a store.

You can also mix some dolomite lime with your soil to drop your pH I believe. :hump:

Are you sure pool chemicals are safe to use with the water for my plants? That just sounds not so good. :S

pH + and pH - are fine to use with your plants. Get some out of the aquarium section of your local store.

It's safe for fish. :hump:

So spa Ph + will work for soil? I didn;t think that would be a good idea, but i can't seem to find dolomite lime anywhere around my area. Thanks

Yes, just remember it doesn't take much for a gallon of water. A couple drops.

All I know is fish tank pH+/pH- is totally safe for fish. Spa pH+/pH- shouldn't be different. :hump:

I went out today and some aquarium PH adjuster. Got a pitcher, filled it up, and got to adjusting. I put it at 6.5, and gave them a good watering. (:

Right on, remember to flush the soil with about 3x the volume of your container.

If those are 16oz cups use 48oz of water. :hump:

The middle of the plant is still so green that I think it might actually live. Lol, we'll see I guess. The other plant is looking pretty good though.
