Pot shapes and sizes?
Do you think pot shape, not size..produces more uniform plants and do you think pot shape makes a difference in what weight she can bear at the end of flower?

Coco or soil? For easiness and yield
Does growing in coco offer bigger yields than soil or vice versa? And has anyone had good results using biobizz with coco? I’m curious because I'm thinking about trying out an organic coco run.

Grow medium for Beginner
Hello! Newbie Here! Can anyone recommend growing medium for a beginner? I don't care too much about flavour or yield, rather I'm looking for low-maintenance options/fool proof options. Also looking for nutrients that are somewhat easy to use and understand for that substrate.

How to get PH down
Hi everyone Her run off water is around PH 7.1 so I'm watering this plant with 5.8 PHed solution (biobizz and ph down). Despite of it I am not getting down the run off PH. What should I do to solve this problem? PS - I have already flushed her with 2.5 liters of 5.8 PH water.

First time testing PPM and slightly panicked :c
Runoff was at 2200PPM. I flushed her with 5L of pH 5.8 water. I got the runoff to 1000PPM where I left it. The pH was at 7 though and was higher than before the flush. Why is that? I always pH before watering. Also, is the flush going to cause trouble for her? I kind of panicked.

Best medium for autoflowers
What is your favorite growing medium for autoflowers and why? I'm looking to continue broadening my horizons with my next grow when I get more seeds. I'm pondering which method I want to try or if I'm going to stick with what I've got going on already.

How do you wash your coco?
I'd like to reuse my coco, so just wondering how some of you that use it wash yours in prep for another grow. I had issues with gnats so I want to be sure the coco is pest free before I use it again. I don't have lots of gadgets so tips on how to physically wash it wd be helpful

Adjusting Soil pH
Biobizz Lightmix is the only soil I could see 6.5 that's why I use it but this time I measure it's 7 my question how come does it happen even though the water it's been getting was no more than 5.8 all the time? I know my organic ph thing adjusts it only for couple of hours.
