ARGH

luckily for me I gave her like an hour long tutorial, and I quizzed her half a day later and had her actually perform the watering in front of me. She did it right. I gave her enough ph water to last 2 days.

I PH'd the water at 5.4, I know the PH tends to rise if it sits for a few days. After two days I don't anticipate it being any higher than 6.5-6.8 which is still adequate for coco (just not ideal).

If I am still not home I will have her water with tap water (ph 7.0). It's not great, but it's better than letting the coco dry out. That would destroy my plants that are looking beautiful.

Weedhound, when you ran your SNLxNH did you get any variegated plants? I got a few and they are pretty. I hope their variegation is more pronounced as they get bigger.
