So i was cookin in the kitchen today when i noticed my baking soda box. "Use for a fresh Smell!" "makes your food better!" "Clean your environment!" things like this writen all over it.

Now since im about to start some new plants and have a smell problem this instantly came into my head for a solution.

But wait it gets beter. Because of the chemicals used in Baking Soda (aka Sodium Bicarbonate) it is very good at the following; Contact cleaning, air cleaning, air freshening, Ph raising, Absorption, Nurtring certain chemicals, and "Fresh taste"(as quoted by box)

Now who is to say that Baking Soda isnt the Key to making your harvest more CHronic than it already is. Of course youd have to be good at growing in general. but i think Baking Soda can Fix all those small problems that hurt your crop in so many ways just by keepin a couple open boxes in ur grow room.

heres the logic,
Rids of the smell, Rasies Ph level when applied, Keeps a standard Ph level just when present, Kills all type of negative Fungi that would hurt your plant, prevents over watering, kills mold, protects from bugs, etc.

post what you think, in fact i would love to see someone try this on the next grow! i plan on it!

WRITE IT DOWN> WE HAVE A BREAK THRU!!

and it makes you burp. Good stuff!

fungi in the soil aren't bad for your plants, I don't understand how it can prevent over watering, if you let your soil dry in between watering you won't have bugs, and i would be too easy to get the pH out of the acceptable range adding it to the soil.
Add baking soda if you need to raise your soil pH, but add it to the water not the soil and use very small amounts.

Of course all in porportion when adding....

The fungi isnt so much as being in the soil buy on the plants themselves, because of like a certain way baking soda effects air(the freshness) it has no tollerence for mold, or fowl substances(UR PLANT DOESNT COUNT).

The water concept is easy. Since Baking soda is an obsorbant if u over water your soil the air because more humid thus the Baking soda absorbs it. being if u water to much the natural process of the soil tryin to get rid of the water humidifies the room and the bakign soda absorbs=no over water. Another concept developed is that becuase the soil is in contact with teh water it would not be possible for it there to be overly watered....im not to sure how to explain the second one didnt understand it to much but u know.

however the first makes perfect sense!

none of that made any sense, all you are doing is speculating because of the shit the baking soda claims to do on the box...
You need very small amounts of baking soda to change the pH, it wouldn't make a difference.
With a good soil mix it is impossible to overwater at one time, if you do it would just be flushing
Have good ventilation with fresh air intake to prevent mold, forget about the baking soda it's not a cure-all, it's really not good for anything except raising the pH.
Read up, it sounds like you have a lot of learning to do...

Also i'd imagine leaving boxes in a humid grow room would turn them into chunks pretty quickly.

My "Journal" When do I harvest? a no bullshit approach.

No.... why do u think that people put baking soda in their refrigorators? because it absorbs smells and kills mold, and fungous. thats why you get the fresh smell, no mold=no smell

there is no way baking soda can absorb with the smell of a flowering plant, as for mold when conditions are right it will form regardless of if you have baking soda in the grow area or not...

again thats why i said multiple boxes....
its how baking soda works. if it didnt ppl wouldnt put it in the Referigorators and then they would smell like shitt....
Mold is weak when its starts tho and very easy to prevent, Baking Soda has done it beaitfully for ppl accros the globe....look it up, top uses for baking soda; prevent mold

sounds like all of these wonderful things baking soda does are purely speculation by yourself have you used it for a grow start to finish?? if not then you should try it before you start telling people of this wonderful cure for all?? (spose it cures cancer too lol) na just joking but u should really try these things before you go raving of how great it is when in reality you don't really know your just guessing due to what a box says??? all good mate and the best of luck to you once you have tried it out I'd be interested in your results.
