ok i was looking everywhere but i couldn't find. i use soil. how do i know when to change soil? p.s is rockwoolbetter than soil and would i ever have to changed rockwool??
if your using foxfarms OF that shit is packed full of good stuff for your plants so wait until they are around 4-5 weeks before you add anything as thats when they will actually use it. they spend the first 4-5 weeks establishing a good strong root system so thats when they will be safe to start nuteing.
change soil??? you mean a new grow cycle or what??? because you dont change the soil unless its fresh clones or seeds your planting. for hydro you would use rockwool as it works best with soiless mediums.. IE...clay rock pellets,perlite,or any other soiless medium. if your in soil stay in it.this is my first post
so do u read german??? if so what does it say??? you want potting soil that does not have any added nutrients... unless you plan on not feeding them yourself and want to try the nutrient added soil
but look for foxfarms,miracle grow, scotts, or any specialty plant soil.. thats got good organics and provides good texture for roots and can drain well. tomatoe soil would probably work great but i have never used it so i cant tell you forshure but if you got a credit card or something of that sort... you can everything you need online
No i don't think its true. if you don't flush the plant 2 weeks before harvest then yeah it would probably fry your brain
most nutrient lock ups happen when there is no flushing of the soil leaving salt buildups and locking out certain nutes.Also adding perlite will help aeration of the soil for oxygen to the roots and help keep the roots from growing in bunches or wrapping around bark.Im using this now and it seems i have a little nute lock up/stunted growth during flowering. PH of the soil is around 6.8; but it seems some nutrients are being locked up (perhaps N) *yellowing leaves* . Could also be root lockup for this soil has small wood chips in it that some of the roots "group" up around. Anyhow this was my first full grow experience so; it was all enlightning none the less.
Don't use (N) durring flowering. Turn up the P and K. Turn off the N. You will have huge buds! Look for a product called Big Bud on eBay.
I use the same mix only I use Happy Frog in place of the Light Warrior. I have used the Light Warrior and it's great but I believe I get slightly better results with the FROG!
