Well peat perlite mix buffered with lime just wanted to try something other than Coco so I don't have the calcium problems
Interesting

Pro mix hp. Ph 6.0

yep, 6.1 and let the peat drift the pH negatively through the hydro range. Treat this grow as a soilless hydro with a negative drift and you will be golden.

Thats about what I been doing buy for day 19 my Barney blue cheese looks like a week ! Lol I did some looking around most of the autos I seen on day 19 are on at least three noeds and going on 6 inches or so my little girl still looks like a seedling so I'm trying to figure out my problem I was thinking pH but I guess not maybe I haven't been watering enough I've been try to keep it on the dry side so the peat doesn't drown my roots and I see very slight yellowing it's in a organic mix with peat and roots organic amendments foundation grow and bloom maybe 1 or too spoons of each nothing major at all

I would... like whats it going to get out of the peat? The only nutrients the plant will see are in that roots organic... and if that is the nutes then the ph doesn't matter... just let the medium do what it will. But yes, water with the nutes daily. The real challenge would be using a synthetic nute that needed to stay in a range. This will be a snap. Roots Organic was a good choice for this odd medium and it should grow some tasty pot. Be ready to throw some calmag at it though... RootsO is magic, but it can't supply everything to a mag or calcium hungry plant.
I kinda was thinking treat it like Coco since it has no real way of holding onto anything
Very interesting choice of medium indeed

Probably don't have to water everyday it holds more water and I've been told less air but I have perlite and it's in a bag so I think it'll trun out good I think I'll use Coco next time I'm just resting waters I have the auto in peat and the photos in a sort of homemade foz farm living soil mix I added some stuff to

You should stop measuring the pH of your runoff. Its reading is meaningless. Making changes based on the runoff reading is a sure way to wreck your grow. Continue watering at the correct pH for your medium.

I always thought it was 6.1, but you need to check with someone that runs promix.
