  1. hey all :wave:. i been reading post after post and saw something about the pH range is lower than soil mediums. so my question is, whats the optimal range. and how often should i feed em. right now im keeping is about 6.8 to 7.0 and using all purpose mg 24-8-16, for my vegging sprouts and bloom boost for my clones and im having a helluva time keeping my larger plant healthy. any help will be greatly appreciated..... thanks alot, shen P.S i have no clue how to post pics so help in that area would be great as awell... shen :smoking: medium is 50/50 perlite and vermiculite.
     
  2. optimal ph for soil is 6.5. hydro is (imo) 5.8.
     
  3. soil 6.5-6.8
    soilless 5.7-6.0
    hydro 5.5-5.8

    IMHO:p

    With the number of noobs that havent completed thier first grow journals and the abuse from those know it alls.............well those that are feelin froggy....leap

    I could use a fishin trip
     
  9. Skeptical of GG's knowledge? Who? N00bs?

    You don't get personal requests for help on boards unless you seriously know what you are talking about and have expressed it several times. GG is the name I hear the most over fixing sick plants, that speaks for itself.
     

  10. See GG is so pro he goes frog fishin.
