hello everyone I just gave these autoflowers in super soil a watering I gave them plain filtered water ph. to 6.3 with citric acid crystals made sure not to get any run off if possible to avoid leaching the nutrients from the super soil
so far the plants are looking good in there under the pair of mars II 700 lights I had to turn the mars II 400 off in the middle since I am also using my grow tent and together it was pulling to much power and tripping the breaker but since I turned off the 400 things have been fine so its all good lol
now that I think about it this setup in the closet is way better then the mars pro II 320 I had in there before dont get me wrong its not the light that I dont like and in fact I love it I just think it was not the best light choice for the space that I had it in if I had a 4x4 tent man that thing would kick butt
I got to say I am loving the fact that I dont have to mix nutes up for watering's just give them water it might not sound that bad but once you take in that fact that I would have to mix different nutes for the plants in different stages of growth then it becomes a real pain in the butt
it gets even worse if you think about that its not just different nutes for veg and flower but even in veg I cant give the same nutes to the seedlings as the ones that are in full veg that would want full strength nutes so that's even more mixing it never ends
ok dont get me wrong super soil is not perfect it has its flaws and it still can be a lot of work but its mostly mixing soil and you only have to do that once and let it cook and a lite mixing before you use it
I like the super soil style of growing since it was always a hard job for me to try and figure out what the plants needed sometimes when I was feeding them bottle nutes
it made it worse that I always grew a bunch of different strains all at the same time and since most plants like different levels of nutes and I was just mixing one batch of nutes for all my plants some of the plants always seemed to be lacking something different so I would get some good plants and some bad plants and genetics play a big part to but that's a different story all together so I wont get in to that
well I cant beat myself up to bad since its just how life is and nothing goes as expected just roll with the punches and do what you can man I must be super stoned sorry I got side tracked
long story short I like super soil style of growing and am glad I just mixed another batch for my next grow it helped take some of the guess work out and its one step closer to happy plants and happy plants make a happy me
