    Soil questions / first grow / guerilla

    Hi, I made this thread earlier https://www.rollitup.org/t/first-grow-guerilla-grow-need-help-with-soil-related-questions.1050318/#post-16247252 and explained my situation in depth but couldn't get exact answers to my questions. So I'm making a TLDR version here, if you could answer them would be...

    How do I change the PH of my soil with just PH'ed water?

    OK, so I can't find any sources online about how to change my soil PH levels by just using PH'ed water. Anything online is telling me to do weird shit like add lemon juice or dolomitic lime, which is not what I am wondering about how to do. For example, my soil PH is 6.7 - 6.9 in all my...

    Leaf Yellowing and Crisping Problems... Microgrow Royal Dwarf and Green-O-Matic

    Hi, my circumstances and location mean that it is impossible to grow unless it is very well hidden and camouflaged. I figured I'd see if I could quietly grow indoors under my desk. I realised at the time it was a fairly big ask, with slim-pickings and problems along the way. Anyway, it is a...

    pH Driving Me INSANE

    So I’ve been trying to test my soil ph and it’s driving me insane. I have a cheap soil probe that doesn’t really work. I stab it into the soil, it flickers like 7.4 or 7.8, then flips back to 7.0. I even just pulled some soil out, added distilled water, and tried it. Didn’t even read.. just...

    Too much light? Or other issue

    I had a plant battling potassium deficit which I combated with soluble langbeinite in order to feed it some quickly and also keep my grow organic. I think it's stalled but on all my plants including the other ones the leaves are starting to get this light green pattern on a the edges. Is this a...

    Use GH pH kit test soil?

    My partner (which I don't recommend partnering up by the way... Like ever) put the girls into 5 gal buckets with his layered soil setup ( from top down: potting soil, peat, compost and rocks for draining) without so much as running it by me first. What's done is done, and he said that he has...

    Adjusting soil ph after planting

    I started my clones in fox farm happy frog potting soil with peat moss and perlite. I recently learned peat is acidic. I started flowering yesterday, and they've been under 24 hours of light in red solo cups, 6 days in their final home, 2 gallon containers. It's basic potting soil from the...

    Fixing soil ph

    Im wondering what wouldn't be too drastic of a measure to correct a high ph in soil. I've watered twice..both times I ph'ed the water down to 6.2ish as out of the tap its around 8.3ish. Checked runoff lpast time and it was right around 7. There is lime that was in the soil already..but when I...

    So I just started a grow, using ffof with some of their nutes, not using yet tho since I'm only 2 weeks in, but my question is, do I have to worry about the ph of the soil if I'm using all of the ff lineup? Bad how would one go about checking the SOIL pH without going out and buying a soil ph...
