    Talking Pure Luck or Pure Genius? :D

    Seems like House and Garden Nutes either have it sussed or i just have pure luck, here is why.....

    House & Garden Veg (A & B) + House & Garden Silicon + Water = PH 5.8
    House & Garden Bloom (A & B) + House & Garden Silicon + Water = PH 5.7 - PH 5.8

    Im just wondering whether or not this is pure luck or just pure genius on House & Garden's Part?


    Would be good to hear what all of you think

    ghe 3 part flora series.. g/b/m in water = ph 6.0

    im pretty sure it is quite deliberate. hydroponic nutes have acidic buffers to drop the ph of water in an attempt to eliminate the need for ph and and down chemicals. if you mix as directed, then adjust the ec- you'll usually find the ph is bang on.

    I think they are done deliberate, because Ionic Nutes have a buffer which won't allow ph to go over 6.2 and in flower adding the Ionic boost always takes ph down to 5.6-5.7.

    hmm thats interesting stuff - i wonder if the vitalink nutes have any of these buffers?
    just gonna say widow chap, i believe that ph during flower (i presume this is when your using the boost?) should be kept slightly higher than 5.6/5.7?
    i follow - 5.5/5.9 rising during veg and 5.6/6.2 rising during flower - i read the plants like a slightly higher ph later in flower as they mature. but if anyone can tell me more please do as i cnat find the article anymore lol

    Totally agree cock, check my LSD thread page 4, there's a post by djvivid who was kind enough to post me some charts when I had ph issues!!

    This happens with me when I do a fresh batch of nutes, it takes it down to 5.6 but I leave the tank to stand for an hour or so b4 giving them their first feed.
    I check the ph before I switch the pump on and its usually 5.8.
