Using GH grow, ph 6.0. I had a little trouble early on because I was ph’ing a gallon of water to use and I’ve been using citric acid to ph down. The problem is (I found out later) that it’s only good for about 8 hours and so I was watering my seedlings in ph 7.8 water for 2 weeks. Oops! No harm, they look good now.
This is straight coco/vermiculite already washed and I’ve added nothing to it. My plan at this point is to use the General Hydroponics two part Grow and Bloom for this.
Awesome, awesome @Myfriendis410! :sigh: I am envious you got your Gold Leaf to take hold and grow. We are not having any luck with ours We have 3 seeds left and are apprehensive to try again. When/if we do try again, I might come sniffing around your door for any help you can offer great job and I learned something new today, don’t use citric acid
@rodri59, I don’t think citric acid is a bad thing if you use the water right away. In fact: the ph rising can be taken advantage of and one could say, ph for a water-only watering in soil, ph down to 6.0 from say 7.0 with citric acid and as the ph goes up over time, different nutrients reach peak solubility.
I’ve been using it in my grows with excellent results but it’s not stable for storage and it almost bit me where the led’s don’t shine haha.
Don’t give up on the Gold Leaf! It’s a ridiculously vigorous plant. I have one 3 weeks in flower now. She’s telling everyone ELSE what to do lol.
You better start building your SCROG now! That Jack Herer is gonna be a big girl? She is only two days older than the other one and looks to be 1/3rd larger?
The little ones are enjoying the shady part of the yard and have really shot up. The Jack Herer is nearing 10", the Gold Leaf at 8" and the GL clone at 6.5".
