Here we go again... I have been reading about growing and have actually been growing for about 5 years and my BIGGEST complaint is the contradictory information that is out there.
I don't know if it is even possible (because this stuff is friggin 'black magic' if you ask me) but I'd like to see some myths busted.
Here's some if anybody wants to play:
(1) Adjust PH of water for seedlings
I see folks recommending targets and adjusting and then I read that acids and bases should NEVER be added to water for seedlings so it is NOT a good idea to PH the water.
whattheheck?
Do I or don't I, ff's?
(2) No nutes until the 3rd set of real leaves (the seed contains all it needs)
and then I get smacked for not giving them THRIVE (B1 supplement) and sure enough, I read the label which suggests amounts for seed SOAKING and germination.
whattheheck?
