Ya that's kind of where I'm at. I'm gathering supplies but I'm going to watch and listen to my plants. Add in I've got a bonus. My mom has the greenest thumb I've ever seen and she makes her own fertilizer / nutes. Her tomato plants are AMAZING. I figure if her nutes will work on tomatoes they'll work just fine on my babies.

It depends are you lowering ph in water or trying to bring soil ph down

Medi-One 4-3-3 combined with Big Bud during flower.
Slowly worked up to 15ml/gallon during veg and then bumped it up to 30ml/gallon during flower. I’m not 100% sure on the big bud as a buddy pre mixed a gallon of it for me and instructed me to use one cup per plant per week of flower. It’s been working out great. Currently in week 5.5 of flower.

I havent got a clue when it comes to nutrients. So my last couple of grows, I've asked my mother. I dont know anyone that spends more time in the garden then her lol. Here is the "rutine".
Cactus/seedling soil in a small pot with some perlite for the first cup.
Potting soil w/pre added compost and perlite for the next pot. Feeding some bloodmeal from time to time.
Transplanting into 10 litre bucket. Mixing cow compost into potting soil with perlite. After flip. Feeding bone meal, compost tea and backstrap melasse every 3-4 watering.
As I havent got a clue what im doing. Im careful and not use that much when i feed. Any tip to improve would be nice. Just as long as it pulls me in the direction of something organic
. Im going to get the book "teaming with microbes" and the other 2 in that series. I hear thats a good read.

Woah for results...I just hopped in here for some research and always like to work backwards..what a treat.
Look forward to lots of information, definitely looking for an easy/effective soil/feeding method that is not chem heavy and provides fat delicious clean buds!

So Google the advanced nutrients 3 part series feeding chart it will give you a week by week feeding schedule. Dont give the full amount they list . If using a super soil like fox farm ocean forest do not feed at all for the first 3 weeks water only . Then start using the nutrients at 1/4 of the recommended feeding. I do feed . Feed then water only. After about a week bump up the nutrients to about half and stay at half un less u see that they need more bump up to 3/4 strength you should t need to go more than that. If you are using coco or something like that start the nutrition program right away. Dont be tempted to over do it less is more . I use emerald harvest 3part series I love it
First strain I ever grew lol

I tried aluminum sulfate to lower ph in soilless mix once and all plants died. Pretty sure aluminum is bad for cannabis and also you dont want aluminum in your plants.
Find dolomite lime instead
