If you don't have a pH meter, I hate to sound like a spokesperson for Canna and Botanicare, but the Canna Terra and Botanicare Pure Blend nute systems are buffered so that you don't have to adjust the pH as carefully. Be sure to flush out all that miracle grow chemmy fert though, because your plants look locked out already. I'd go with a plain non-fertilized potting soil, bagged compost, or promix cut with perlite by up to 30%.
alright i guess imn not gonna use rocks and sand anymore lol. i just took most of the wood chips out and i also just fed it with 15-30-15 nutrients to try and throw some nitrogen back in there its the only thing i have gotta get more materials. i hope you stick with this grow journal because you have helped me a lot in the past i had such a nice grow last year and some fuck stole it and i fucked his eye up pretty good lol
