Again another Light Question.
Thanks for taking intrest Weedhound- Well at first I watered it with well water (left out to temp/evaporate salts, the same I use for my houseplants) which it did fine with. Since the color change, I have been mixing the the left out well-water with distilled water. Bout 50/50. I am also have a rain collector out, but wouldn't you know it, it hasn't rained since!!!!!!! I don't have a ph ckr, but I really think it is the heat ( I had foil around it because for approximately first two weeks it had insufficient light...and I didn't remove it when I got the new lights, now foil is removed). Not to mention this grow is in my furnace room/closet (5'X6' guesstimate, the water heater and furnace are in there so subtract that room), lol. I definitley need to invest in a thermometer and a ph kit. What inexpensive ph tester do you suggest? Keep in mind I will not buy anything online...Stores available to me are Wal-mart, K-mart, Home Depot, and Lowe's. Although HD is farther.
As for my new sprouts....I used that premixed stuff, again....from Kmart Martha Stewart Product info: sphagnum peat and reed-sedge peat, perlite, and slow release ferts (i know now bad at this stage, but read) This product is regionally formulated from organic-based materials derived from one or more of the following: sphagnum peat moss, reed-sedge peat, composted forest porducts peat humus, a wetting agent, horticultural perlite, lime for proper pH balance, and a slow-release plant food. .09-.09-.09 They have a website...I am going to check it out, what should I look for? Or should I say screw it and go to Dollar General and get some cheap mix? I have vermiculite from growing some popular psychadellic fungus- I am aghast that I could grow those and not a simple weed- but no pearlite on hand. Let me know what you think my best possible course of action is at this point.
Sorry for the ramble, however I find myself high... Again thanks for the intrest.Bree1978 Reviewed by Bree1978 on . Again another Light Question. I tend to ramble a little, but bear with me please. Someone threw a seed in one of my plants (house, aloe) and Surprise! It sprouted. I tried to save it, although it took me a week and a half to get some decent lighting over it. I also transplanted it at this time (Saturday). I know it was way to early to do this, but I didn't want to wait to long with it being with that aloe plant (roots entertwining, ect;). Now it's first leaves that are not serrated are white and about to fall off, and Rating: 5
