Promix flx I haven't seen that yet. Googled it looks like a custom blend? Where did you get it?
From a Garden Centre/pond shop They've converted have to pawn shop to a cannabis grow store. When they first did it I really like that store, however the past two times I've gone there they've given me cut open bags that were taped up. When I noticed it at the time I told the guy didn't want that one to change it for one that had not been cut open little did I realize the other four bales he put in my truck were cut open as well and re-taped so it will be the last time I buy it there but That is where I got it.
And I just have to say the guy that's running that side honestly, is a bit of a douche bag. His ego is bigger than the warehouse and he is nothing but lazy and thinks he is above everyone. Needless to say, he goes don't work well with me. Life's too short stay humble. Not to mention I don't think he approves of women growers just the vibe he sends.... Makes my hair wanna go straight!

I only went there when the other ones are closed. I'm
Which I won't do that even anymore.
 

Hey Mr S

This is the next bag I have. I'm nervous to use it now. I had never looked at dates before. I will be from now on.
It never occurred to me that I could be possibly over feeding if my MC is absorbing the moisture in the air.
OK, so I'd take some out and fill up a pot that you will be using. Water it in to activate the buffers and wait 3 days. Take a soil sample at different spots and run the slurry test again and record the results. It should be around 5.8 if all is good.
 
Hey Momma, figure I’ll post some pics of the ladies in here as you offered your guidance. They’re all going into flower

@MrSauga is there any difference with the soil Flx? I will definitely do the test on the soil starting this morning

I'm feeding today again and I sprayed yesterday.

I'm buying a dehumidifier today, bamboo, & fan.

*temps went down to 12 last night

:hmmmm:
The FLX seems to be a custom blend. They start with the BX formula then whatever the customer wants they add it in there. Unless you know what it was for then it could contain anything.
Check this link out to understand it more.

Check out all the 'TABS' as there is info on each one(Description,Usage Guidance, Specifications).
 
These are the options a customer may have requested.

PRO-MIX® FLEX OPTION ?

It has for base the popular PRO-MIX® BX formula which, based on your request, is adapted with one of the following 5 options:
  • No fertilizer
  • Control release fertilizer
  • Low limestone
  • High limestone
  • No aggregate
If yours has time released ferts your screwed. If it is high/low in limestone it probably won't buffer correctly. If it has no aggregate it may not provide adequate drainage. Too many unknown variables in my opinion.

I agree.
Okay so regular Pro mix is best?

Promix HP is ideal. Promix BX is good but it uses vermiculite instead of perlite for the most part. Vermiculite acts as a sponge where perlite does not. Cutting BX with some Perlite helps with that. Either will work.

I honesty prefer the HP
