The pH of your nute mix don't mater with any good buffered medium like promix HP the medium will buffer the pH you don't need to adjust your nutes as long as its in a reasonable rannge 5 - 7. It's the pH of the medium that matters. The only way to check the pH of the medium is by doing a slurry test. Test runoff is useless.

LOL... Just noticed the hot pepper plants behind the pot plant they are blooming nicely... What kind?

Flaming Flares I believe they are called. Those are also in coco /megacrop. Works great!

Gave the girls a little haircut today. The white widow was still just too dense this is her third or fourth serious pruning.

Damn guys, it’s been no lower than 10-12C here at night with days in the mid 20s and feeling like high 20s/low 30s during the day with the humidity.

 

[oldsmokey]

7 here right now the forecasted high is 8

 

[The Celt]

How far north are you Smokey?

 

[oldsmokey]

Central Alberta

 

[The Celt]

Ah, that explains it, a LOT farther north than here

Girls ar loving the 33C in the B.C. Fraser Valley today. Damn, it’s hot out. Phew. Low of 14 tonight.

Hope it stays this dry until the end of October.

Promix hp .. I'm going to have to try a grow in that, I have been doing DWC and outside in soil , How is growing with promix hp inside? Wait maybe i kinda am is that stuff peat moss based like rapid rooters?

The plants like a wet/ dry cycle .with HP ProMix I think
I’ve observed no lockout, hotspots or salt buildup , maybe I’m lucky
water slowly like a litre every 5 mins until run off ( pot size proportional) and then not again until the pot was LIGHT

good luck!

Your not far from me and it was 2 here this morning and only got up to 22 today

Funny the difference the short distance makes. I own property between Oxford and Pugwash, and if i was growing there, I would be worried about frost already. Even when I lived around Truro, maybe 40 miles as the crow flies, I would be wanting to harvest before the end of the month.

High of 8 here today I actually have the fireplace burning right now.

Frost advisory for us tonight, then the rest of the week is highs of 20 and lows of 8. Furnace has been back on for two days now. I love this country.

Here’s a Hindu Kush tester I took yesterday!
