[Free Stuff] Official AFN Hello from Greenleaf Nutrients!

[midIN]

Well, that's my issue. Not sure if I should ph gor soil or hydro. Pro mix you ph like hydro 5.5-6.2 is optional range but up to 6.5, or 6.5-7.5 like real soil? I think 6.5-7.5 but have no idea hoping someone who uses MC with biobizz light mix can tell me what they ph to.

It's similar to warrior mix IMO, I would go lite with the feed til she burns past the light mix layer maybe.

MC in action!

There is no nutrients in it. Need to know if it's like pro mix or like OF. Pro mix's ph range is 5.5-6.5, OF is 6.5-7.5 but says soil buffers to 6.8. You need to be in 1 of those ranges just cant find out which 1 it is. If it's 6.5-7.5 and feed is 5.5, cant imagine it would buffer up to 6.5 but maybe it will. I looked on afn but everything thing I saw said no need to ph???? I got till like 2-3 week of December to find out so got some time.

6.5 what I always ph’d to in that kind of medium. 6.2-6.5 you can’t go wrong. I bet 6 would work fine too.

Can’t believe no one uses biobizz. I think @Ribbzzy uses or used biobizz. @Mcdee would like to know optimal ph for biobizz light mix.

If it's like hydro yes. With pro mix once you get over 6.2 your getting close and over 6.5 you will have lockout. I got this from pro mix. OF is more like real soil which uses the higher ph range. I was at 5.3 with AN this grow and was having a lockout. As soon as I brought up to 5.7-5.9 they took off. I have been having this issue for 3 grows I was going back and forth trying to figure it out. Come to realize with help from Pop22 it was the ph, so just being off a little can be huge. That's why trying to find out so I'm not hurting my grow because of a simple mistake. I get the feeling its 6.5-7.5, but have to be sure. I'm just about out of bud cause l got nothing out of 2 of 3 plants last grow. I have until beginning of December till this grow is done. Most who I seen use biobizz uses their feed too, so that maybe why cant find anyone that ph's. I tried emailing biobizz but email wouldnt send not sure why. Someone will use MC with it besides me eventually lol.

Found a bunch here who do cant find anyone who ph's it, not yet anyways.

@Mcdee i just looked it up and refreshed my memory it is soil with organic amendments. So if nobody answers I would go with the low side of what u feel soil should be ph’d at. I know canna plants prefer slightly acidic feed solution that’s why 7.5 sounds high. I know soil has buffers that lower ph but why put it so high and rely on buffers to lower when u can just put a little closer to the acidic range. 6.2-6.5 is where I would start if I was in need to start tonight. Honestly I think 6.2 would work for any grow, might not be optimal but it would work to start and fine tune from there. I go by how fast they uptake. If they r sucking t down I leave it be if they r struggling to drink I adjust. Usually solves the problem. I hope
Someone chimes in with biobizz experience. They used to be a sponsor here but no longer.

When I started in soil using fox farm products I didn’t ph. Things went smooth but never blew the lid off. Started to ph around 6.5 and things started to take off so I understand soil might self adjust but things sure seem to move faster when I helped along.

@Waira would have a better idea @Mcdee
