hey Kush I used peat pellets for first week for seedlings, by first week I mean first week. I did the paper towel sprout method and then put them in the peat pellets for 1 week then I put them in the FF/OC in a yogurt cup and only used water for week 2 as i was sure the FF/OC had enough nutes in it. I did'nt have much problems with that method will be using it again. I am not too familar with the LW mix that is a seedling starter mix. anyhow I'll be sticking to the process I used it worked pretty good. as for perlite everyone is using a 60%(soil) to 40%(perlite) I will be also I got the perlite today.
did you check out my picture albums they are hard for me too see I was looking for feedback on picture Quality on the Bible album..peace ..:jointsmile:
oh and I was also asking myself that same question how much lime are they putting in FF/OC
veggii Reviewed by veggii on . How does perlite effect PH? I probably have a very simple question. Here's some background info. My Amish friend has some babies in 16oz keg cups, they look great, and are still in the "seedling" stage of life. All is well, however, when watering with RO water, adjusted to 6.8, (and even down to 6.7) the ph of the runoff still comes out at roughly 7.2-7.28? The soil is foxfarm lightwarrior, and the very bottom inch or two is solid perlite. (Hoping to aide drainage although the fflw is very light and seems pretty Rating: 5
