I wouldnt skip micros, and sure wouldn’t stop cal mag. I would probably go in at 7.0 on your next feed, at 5.8 in soil your already locking some nutes out, it will only get worse if you don’t get it in line. You could scratch one rounded teaspoon of fine ground dolomite lime into the top of your soil to help bring it back to 6.5. Ph higher next water and see what the runoff does.

Gotta get that humidity down in flower, bud rot will show up if not. Also keep fans on and lots of air moving.

I have one oscillating fan but I know it’s not enough air. Do you think a inline fan is necessary? Does it help with airflow and keeping humidity down?

Definitely does. I run a 6 inch in both rooms, intake is thru a carbon filter, exhaust to outside.

The inline is for air exchange, you still need oscillating fans in there as well.

Yes I agree. I’ma get one more fan and inline fan soon. Keep the airflow going in, I opened the tent one day and there was even water droplets on the tent and leaves from so much humidity after watering

Is purified drinking water good for plants?

1 Like

It’s fine to give occasionally but if using all time, you’ll need cal mag in it as there’s no bicarbonate in pure water, so you couldn’t ph it, although pure water will take on the ph of the media. For changing ph, you would definitely have to add to it.

@OldNailPounder If ppms are at around 640 and I want to raise it to 1100 how much ppms would my next feed have to be?
