Look Bro I don't know who made YOU the all mighty book on cannabis growing, but don't disrespect me and come on somebody's thread who I'm trying to help, and flat out tell me...
Untrue.
Fuck that!
This is my opinion, from personal experiences.
I'm not the type of person that jumps into people's threads and feeds them bullshit information that I've read or heard from some other source.
First off, IMO, he shouldn't be spraying anything on his plants, its never good practice. Unless he's one of those creepy foliar feeding fuckers. Lol
I'm not here to argue about exact ph.
For one I NEVER said 5.0... Or anything below 5.5
I run my garden indoor coco DTW on ph 5.5-6.0 with excellent results. And the balls to back it.
My outdoor in coco/potting soil mix I run around 6.0-6.2.
Outdoor is the one situation I would, and have, applied preventive maintenance sprays.
For me it doesn't make sense to spray anything outside of those ph ranges.
Plants absorb the water in the sprays and if its outside of what your normally feeding your plants will suffer.... Your throwing the whole balance of your garden off. Gardening is about consistency and flow. Once you master that quality will increase.
The real root of the PM needs to be addressed and his entire op needs to be properly sanitized, and dryer out.
Then air flow and humidity control needs to be focussed on.
I mean to say what I said is, not true is a little extreme. You don't know what I've experienced. We're all just trying to help eachother reach our common goals.
Actually... who the fuck made you the guru, bitch?
Im allowed to share my experience and knowledge from research, too!
This isnt your thread. This is a community where people share information.
You have the right to say what you think is right, and so do I.
I didnt attack you, you attacked me.
I can back up what I posted with facts. Theres no need to attack anyone.
Have you actually ever read the foliar directions on any products?
Q: Do I need to adjust the pH of the final mix before I spray my plants?
A: No you should never adjust the pH of any Dutch Master foliar sprays. You will notice that the pH of LIQUID LIGHT and Gold SATURATOR when mixed is quite high (between 8 – 10 pH). This is how we have formulated the products to work most efficiently for the best yields possible.
The leaves dont care about PH, but PM and mold hate alkaline environments!
