Oh, I understand it's acidic. Every time I have it in salad I get terrible heartburn, lol. However I wasn't very complete in that answer. After reading through this thread again I suspect a change in fert is something to try, like Supernatural as it has pH buffers in it. Just a thought really. But I still believe soil for most people is easiest. I imagine there are those who think I'm wrong but if you're good in hydro, I say more power to ya. In soil pH tends to be less of a problem.
Hope things are running more smoothly for you Shawn.
I expect you haven't tried coco yet? I've found it definitely easier than managing soil... no over watering, no compaction, better thermal insulation, faster growth and bigger buds. And pH? Well I haven't had any problems at all, never had to adjust it and this year haven't even checked it yet, but I will before flowering, just to be sure. What more could you ask for?Quote:

No, I haven't tried coco. How do you fert? I like to mix powder fert in potting soil as it's set and forget. What do you do?
Same way you provide nutrients in any other hydroponic system... soluble nutrients in water.Quote:
