Cracked this jar 5 minutes ago and my kitchen still smells like someone got their skittles in my gas can. Don't ask why I have a gas can in the kitchen neither!
Haha just foolin' happy Friday I hope y'all enjoy your weekend and everyone's families & gardens are happy and healthy. Shout-out Ben and everyone at SpeedRun as per usual. 🤘
Hucked a Z-Man LT SWAG with the sickle hook out the top, let it hit bottom and sit for a tick, then started a nice slow retrieve and not long after leaving bottom this tank absolutely toilet bowled the entire lure. To the point that my line was so dramatically walking right there was no doubt she had it set. So I leaned back and it was on like donkey Kong. Had the pleasure of fighting her the entire 100+ft of dock I had walked out on because I didn't want to break my leader trying to dock flip her. Breached 3 times and still stayed pinned. Shout-out Z-Man for making a killer product. Excuse the French, if my colorful language doesn't suit you then turn the volume down. Tight lines ladies and germs! 🤘🎣

WTF? Coco pH keeps CLIMBING despite 5.0 pH flushes. I’m about to lose it.
I’m in early flower with two autos (SLAMberry x Orange Portal, and an S.B.C.H x Dreamcast both by SpeedRun seeds)in cloth pots with coco, and I am stuck in a groundhog day type scenario and am starting to lose confidence. More so I just feel really bad that they're suffering.
I’ve been feeding both:
8mL/gal Fox Farm Bush Doctor Cal-Mag
4mL/gal Humboldts Secret Part A (4-0-1)
4mL/gal Humboldts Secret Part B (1-4-2)
pH'd down to 5.7 - 5.8 normally.
The Issue:
My runoff skyrocketed to I’ve been trying to "Nuclear Purge" this shit for two days. Today, I’ve been pouring in full-strength nutrients adjusted to a pH of 5.0
The runoff is actually getting HIGHER. I just got a 6.82 and a 6.72 after putting gallons of 5.0 through them. How the fuck is the pH going UP when I’m hitting it with straight acid?
This coco WAS buffered before the pots were packed.
Runoff was totally healthy/normal for weeks.
Environment: 79°F, 61% RH (1.32VPD), CO2 580ppm.
PPFD 468
Medium WC is 44%, EC is low (.19).
The plants are starting to yellow at the top (Iron/Lockout) and I’m about to lose this entire medicine run. Both of my herniated discs are absolutely screaming from lugging these gallons and I’m seeing zero progress.
Is the coco breaking down? Is there some kind of insane salt precipitation happening that raises pH? I have never seen a medium fight back this hard before.
Please help.
