Thanks brother.....she is turning out better than I anticipated!Dang nice looking auto Van
Ok I know I'm suuuuper late to the party, but with the new site I only get alerts for recently viewed post ok!
Would you run into any issues or deficiencies using regular dirt or regular bag soil? My dirt is riddled with earthworms but don't wanna wait a full run to use my old soil...
Ok back to reading the other pages! Great info in this journal guys
Hey Conradino, wondering where you got your info on Gypsum because I am thinking you might have it mixed up. Gypsum is a form of calcium sulfate dihydrate and essentially just Calcium, Sulfur and water at the molecular level. It doesn't affect the pH at all.
When I spoke of amending my soil with it, I was referring to buckets of the soil sitting around unused. Upon noticing the calcium deficiencies, I busted open my unused soil and I re-amended it with additional minerals and the gypsum, mixed it all up really well, made sure the soil was slightly damp and I covered the soil up to 'cook' and breakdown before I used it.
As for amending anything that was already growing.....no I didn't do that. For those, I just started treating with a little Cal Mag and a little Silica supplement in with my ACT and it got everyone looking much healthier.
I generally try to keep my Cal:Mag ratios at about 7:1. I think I had my ratios good....I just don't think I had enough Calcium in the soil. The Northern Lights and White Widow will be test plants with the re-amended soils. The soil the Northern Lights was transferred into had the Gypsum and minerals added to the soil about a month before I put her in it. Not as long as I would have liked...but its been breaking down for an additional 2 weeks with the plant in it. If I still see any of the spots I saw on the other plants, then I know I still have a calcium issue or I have something else that is the issue.
Here is a link of Gypsum if you want to read the breakdown of gypsum

No worries brother. I figured you might have had it mixed up with Epsom when you were talking about the Mag. I just didn't want any other growers to get put off from using it in soil.You're right I mixed it up with epsom salts... dunno why. I never actually used gypsum. I usually use lithothamnium, which is a form of powdered alga.
If you got calcium and magnesium ratio right, then it's most likely low base saturation, which means you need to up the amount to get around 15-20% of total weight.
It's sth you can dial in for the next cycle for sure. Lowering potassium helps a lot to get it right.
