Good morning (or whatever it is where you are) everyone! I have a few autos growing and while I have enough questions about the plants themselves something else came to my attention this morning. While having my morning coffee I was eyeing my empty soil bag and was looking at the ingredients it says "dolomite (ph adjuster for this soulless mix)". I have been treating it as just regular soil. So I guess my question is should it be treated as a soiless medium? Or was my assumption of it being dirt and treating it as soil correct?

Wat ph feed/water have you been using? I wouldn't go full soiless treatment but 6.5ph to 6.8ph should be fine any other? Lmk will help out where I can.
 
Not 100% on the ph I tested it before and it was always acceptable for soil growing, haven't tested it recently. I'll see if I can't find my ph pen and get some new numbers.
 
As soon as they say "compost" as an ingredient you have soil. Water and Fertigate at 6.3 PH. Peat leans hydro by itself although it holds on to nutrients better than coco. It is the other additions that make it more soil like. Dolomite will buffer the PH.

Morfnoevight

I have just decided to coin a new word in the Blog world "morfnoevight". I have thought about this a lot since becoming an admin here in AFN. It is really the first time I am communicating in real time all around the world and there is no one word greeting/salutation that works for the time of day no matter where you are. So here is a new word that by definition does exactly that.


Definition:
Morfnoevight mōrf nō vīt
Noun 1. A word to encompass Morning, Afternoon, Evening and Night. Commonly used in a greeting or salutation when communicating live worldwide. Good morfnoevight.
