HELP!

IF you're using pure water you may easily overdo it with a small amount of water. Dilute the ph down and up to 5ml/L in some fresh clean water and you'll be able to get finer control with a smaller amount of acid.

 

Truly excessive amounts of pH up (potassium hydroxide) and pH down (phosphoric acid) could harm plants, particularly if you've only got a small amount of water and it's swinging wildly from one end of the scale to the other because you're adding highly concentrated adjusters... But if you only use a small amount to adjust pH there's no harm, and indeed, these substances break down to become plant nutrients...

 

Can you give us a rundown of exactly how you germinate seeds? Position, temp, number, water, pH, etc so on and so on...?

 

That would help to diagnose any possible problems.

 

I myself prefer to direct plant into cubes, as it's easier and has less potential for harm to the baby sprouts.

i hate starting seeds in rockwool. i found ya need to squese them to get water out otherwise they too wet and seeds rot and those that come up get stem rot. so squese water out so they damp but not driping wet and success will be yours.

Hey guys i found some Korean Bottled water that came in at 5.2.. so i just used that straight.. put the cracked seeds into rockwool which i soaked maybe a hour? at the end of which i took each cube out flicked it and resoaked (did this 5 times) .. now this morning both my seeds have poped out of the growcube with the seed still ontop! is it normal for them to popup so fkn quick? i only had them in wet papertowel for 2 days.

 

btw the strains are WhiteRhino, and BigBud X Skunk.

 

cheers for the feedback guys

yes its normal for them to pop up quick by the sounds of it u planted them with tails already yeah

 

and the seed thing on the top can be normal too so dont stress what type of light have you got them under

 

cheerz :Dj:
