    I'm trying to decide between 2 brands of nutes for flowering. I'm in Europe, so some of the usual brands I see people posting about aren't available to me. Here are the 2 I'm considering: Plagron Terra Bloom N: 2.0% P: 2.0% K: 4.0% Biobizz Bio Bloom N: 2.0% P: 6.0% K: 3.0% The Terra...

    Help Deciding on Flowering Nutes Please!

    Interesting. Okay so if I grab 2 of them, I should use each at 50% strength, and mix them together?

    Thanks for all of your help. I ended up finding an online grow shop in my country, and that pretty much solved my problems. Thanks again!

    Raising the pH of my water/feed solution with dolomite lime?

    Hmm... pet shop? As in dogs and cats? That's where I can find the silica??

    Raising the pH of my water/feed solution with dolomite lime?

    You'd be surprised what passes for "postal service" in some places. The issue is that I need to get the girls some nutes this weekend because they're starting to show a bit of a nitrogen deficiency (minor), and I don't really want to wait 2 weeks for mail from the states.

    Raising the pH of my water/feed solution with dolomite lime?

    Thanks for all your help. In looking around online, it seems that hydrated lime is actually another name for calcium hydroxide. As long as I'm not too liberal with how much I use, it sounds like I'll be okay. It's just impossible to find the silica where I am. If anyone knows, can you advise...

    Raising the pH of my water/feed solution with dolomite lime?

    It seems the easiest thing I can access is magnesium sulfate or calcium hydroxide. Either of those work?

    Raising the pH of my water/feed solution with dolomite lime?

    How about using calcium hydroxide? Is that safe long term?

    Raising the pH of my water/feed solution with dolomite lime?

    Thanks jondamon. Forgive me for sounding stupid, but isn't potassium silicate a salt? I'm just afraid that could build up in the soil and prevent nute absorption.

    Raising the pH of my water/feed solution with dolomite lime?

    I'm growing my plants indoors in soil. In the part of Europe where I live, I'm having a tough time finding "pH up" to add to my feed water. I'm looking for alternatives, other than baking soda (I read that baking soda is very bad for the plants). I've seen that some people use dolomite lime...

    Help with Flowering Nutes Please!

    I'm working on my 2nd grow right now, and based on some things that went wrong during my 1st grow I'm trying to prevent nutrition issues this time around. My grow is indoors, in soil. So far everything is going great, and I will be switching the lights/schedule to flowering cycle in 1 week. I...

    To Flush or Not to Flush?

    Thanks all. If it wasn't only 1 more week in veg, I'd start feeding veg nutes. So far no signs of any deficiency, so hopefully that continues for the next week!

    To Flush or Not to Flush?

    By flushing I meant the 3-5X water. I've heard from some other growers that flushing 3-5X when switching cycles is a good idea, but those are people who use veg nutes. It would make sense to me to flush in that case, but since I haven't used any nutes I'm guessing I don't need to do a full flush.
