This is why the Internet is such a bad source for news. A guy at a shop says something's true, you can find something somewhere online to confirm it, therefore it's true? What you're missing is a huge amount of additional information. First, at the time this story broke there was no "the owner"...

THIS! Just my opinion but thats like using the cheapest hooker because it saves money sure she's probably brimming with disease, but look at how much money I saved! *shudder* I don't care how much I save if it comes with a free gnat infestation it costs too much

The bushiness of a plant can be caused by several things, but it's generally caused by genetics and light. If you're running some strong HID lights your plants will grow more bushy than if you're running a CFL or something. As a general rule: more light = shorter, bushier plants. They grow tall...

This is a common mistake caused by most feeding charts doing an absolutely crap job of explaining how to measure weeks. Now to you or I or most sane people, we tend to think of weeks as starting when the plant does, right? I plant a seed, see it sprout, and start counting? Nope, not by most...

That's definitely the truth. I'd simplify that further to say it's not adequate, period, but that's more in the realm of personal opinion.

this! i can also say i ran at less than that with no probs i ran 0.5ml/L on some tiny girls awhile back for awesome growth and zero pH problem

everyones gonna have a different opinion on that top of the line? i dont think so and im definitely not alone on that youll see people talk about how NASA uses GH... it makes me laugh teh government is hardly a good example for spending money wisely i think GH got it right in the first word -...

no problem, your welcome glad i could help u might wanna check out the feeding schedule for Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect lines for ur next grow i think its easier to understand at least 4 me better quality 2 i think 2c

okay dude, here is the CORRECT answer that doesn't make any assumptions about what you already know as you'll see some other people have the right answer but its not totally complete step 1 - decide how much nutrients you need at the end - so like if you have a 30 gallon res you want filled...

This is true. So unfortunately for your problem the pH Perfect nutes won't be the answer. At least not the whole answer. Ditch the Miracle Grow, that's for mom's petunias. Re-pot into something decent and most of the problems should be solved. If not, pH Perfect may solve the rest of them.

Good advice here so far. My advice would be to lift every pot every day, feel the weight. You'll start to get a feel for when to water by how heavy or light each one is. When you water/feed, give the pot a lift again to feel how heavy it is when full. IMHO this is the best way to know when to...

IIRC it was Advanced Nutrients that busted the myth awhile back about not using Nitrogen in flowering. It's true your plants don't need as much, but you do a lot better if you make sure you still give them some. You might cut back, but don't cut it off. And the 2/3rds strength recommendation is...

That website is an interesting example of the power of misinformation. The guy who runs it is kind of a tragic story actually, and he knows just enough science to be able to make the paranoid ramblings sound legitimate unless you really know your stuff. There isn't a single thing wrong with...

Looks great, what are you feeding her?

You might think of trying a completely soil-less mix like Sunshine #4. That's what I use if I want to do a "soil" grow but keep the benefits of hydroponics. Since there's no nutrients in the soil to begin with that way, you can just run hydro nutes like you normally would. Only difference is you...
