Shiiit @Hammerhead

I always recognise pics of your plants. it's not the orange canes.

Always so lush looking, healthy and resin coated.

What is your feed and medium brother?

I appreciate the love. Anyone who has been growing plants in general after 50 years better know how to do that well lol. The #1 mistake made by many is the PH is out of range(too low). Keeping the proper PH in that narrow window is a game changer.

I don't use anything special as far as Nutrients go. In veg Ive been using PBP grow for 15 years now. In flower, I have been using V&B Dirty for 10 years. I add some silica but not often. I use microbes in every up pot. I don't use anything else. I use soilless most of the time. Im using Happy frog at the moment.

I can't get my leaves that dark like yours hammer. I'm in promix hcc with cal/mag Maxi grow and bloom.
The later the go I'll be around 5.8-6.0. Just off the response from the plant.
Well done brother, you always have fire medicine

The medium I use really doesn't affect anything. I use a feed ph range of 6.3-6.5. in all the mediums I use. I never let it go out of that range. Our plants take in nutrients based on PH. Some plants do get too much N but It's easy to fix feeding RO a few times. The APPSS x APISS x WLF8 above took in too much so she has been on RO only this week,

All soilless mediums are buffered. Promix HP is 5.5-5.8... Once the PH drops to low the plants will suffer. Feeding 6.3-6.5 the medium PH never drops too low. Low PH is the #1 cause of all plant issues. I tried using 5.8-6 ph but found my plants did not take well to that low of a PH. Over the years of tweaking, I found a PH 6.3 is the lowest I will ever use in any soilless medium.

How do you maintain that ph?
