I mix up about a quarter of the bag at a time ocean forest and yeah add a little less than a quarter perlite but add enough so your soil is airated well because after watering soil compacts alot restricting air flow to the roots , and the dolomite lime is good to 1/2 cup to a quarter bag of ocean forest ph will stay at 7 all the time !!
Plants look great! Do you still adjust the pH of your water with the lime?

ph ing your water is a must all the time as you can only take up nutes from 6.2 to 7.0 anywhere above or below this is bad for ganja and will cause major problems !!
Thanks I didn't know if the lime buffered it to 7. Do you use FFOF for seedlings? do you use lime with whatever seed mix you use?

Thanks Stoney...

I am currently messing with some seeds obtained from some really good supposedly sensi that I obtained...kinda funny sensi with seeds...lol... ( thought I would practice with these seeds before purchasing the really good ones) Anyhow, started with Miracle Grow moisture control soil and so far good results with the seedlings, but have done a lot of research and decided to transplant in FF Ocean Blend to kick it up a notch and then read your thread here and that was the clincher for me.

I am planning on using the FF nutes and following their schedule. Has this schedule worked well for you? Any adjustments that you would make? Also when adjusting the PH on the H20 that you use, what are you using to adjust it? Any additional tips for the novice here would be appreciated!

Funny thing is I do not partake in the cannibas plant at all....Zero...Nada...I am a nurse!, but the husband has a lot of pain from football injuries, becoming arthritic and this is by far the best pain reliever for him! So my endeavor now is to help him out with some primo homegrown.

I enjoyed horticulture in college (nursing major/ horticulture minor) and am looking forward to mastering this plant! One long day away from here...lmao

Thanks for your time and any info shared!!!

I usually fill my ona bucket with 1 cup ona and 9 cups water I guess that would be a 10/1 ratio, it is pretty strong for a day o4r two then back to skunk. I will recieve my carbon filter in a few days so should be good . The wierd thing about those clones is that I know for sure that I have not over watered them because they are bone dry when I give them water, they may be low on N because I have been giving real light feedings because they are like babies , but I will kkep you posted ?? Thanks Dr. V , glad to see you are still around . Thanks guys for all the answers !!!
Looks to me that they were overwatered at cloneing time and they really were never giving a chance to re-coup----I would still stick to the recovery program I gave you even if you let them go dry between feedings-----the h202 can help with alot of possible root problems and will give the plants a boost of o2. They do look like they need N but the sagging has zero to do with N def---use the program and they will bounce back.

i found out that onIy faucet water and water that comes from treatment pIants have to be ph. its the saIts, chIor.in the water that make it unaccept.if you use a mineraI or drinking water , needs not be ph. Its perfect .Iike rainwater.ithink its stays at 6.5 in numbers. i aIways use water from our dispensary here in town 35 cents a gaI. but its worth it . i aIways get ubove ave. yieIds with it and good potency., pIus the fiII up is one bIok from our house.But i might get one though, wat kind of tester, and up and down ph formuIa do you use?

Miracle grow has a very low ph which is bad for our kind of plants. Fox farm is a very good line of stuff the soil is perfect except you need to add a little perlite and dolomite lime to it . Also do not feed using the fox farm feeding scheduled dates as they say seedlings week 1 and you do not add ferts till atleast 3 weeks from plant emerging above soil in fox farm ocean forest soil as it has ferts in it and your babies will become dead or really close trust me. You can start with about a quarter tsp. of nutes not the recommended and I only get up to 1 full tsp. at anytime in my grow ?? Hope this helps ???

The advicee you gave me was great and I already do that to a tee , I was not feeding any nutes and they really needed some as I said before the leaves were red and they were purple which I believe is low n. I added some yesterday at a small dose and they have perked up some and greened up a bit . I think that the babies were just hungry ?? Like I said before this batch of blueberry is like no other I have seen as it loves nutes, grows tall, and seems to be producing nice sized buds ?? I do not know ??

No I just add it to the fox farm ocean forest and yes that is the soil I use from seed to weed !!

Hey Stoney,
What do you buffer your H20 with???

Also a general ? for anyone... Do the plants lose their potency from clone to clone. Was reading an article about cannabis put our by Purdue UN, about growing and it said a clone will not have the same potency that the mother plant does? Is this really true? It seems that alot of folks clone so just curious.

Got the FF soil today and will replant the babies tomorrow!

Buffer my h2o ?? I do not buffer my water but I do ph it every time I use it ??
Afte some time of keeping a mother it will lose potency but clones will have the same potency as the mother as it is the same plant more or less ??
