Hi can anyone help with what the best ph is for vegging.
my seedlings are 2 weeks old, one is still only about a cm the 2 others are around 3".
I am using rooting agents now with a ph of around 5.8 sometimes it's a big higher (no higher than 6 )and think it's time to do half rooting agent/half vegging nutrients

Depends on the medium your growing in, 5.8 is right for coco I think.

Are you in soil chap?

If so, and you have bought a generic multipurpose compost, you should not need to worry about ph in veg really. Its in flower generally that ph issues arise in soil, if at all.

You should not need to add anything to seedlings if in soil at all. Its only when they get 5 bladed leaves ( a few weeks away) should you start worrying about nutes and agents etc.

 

Cheers

Mrs W.

I like to have my PH in veg around 5.5 for better calcium and raise it to around 6.0 for flower for better magnesium

To start of I aim for 5.5/5.6 then as they get bigger I take it up slowly to 5.8 'ish'

 

Then in flower I aim for 6.0/6.2

 

and best of luck with the grow!!
