  1. Where to meet Hiso Thai women? TROLL With a capital 'T'. This guy comes on here blabbering how rich he is, how he wants Thai mafia connections to 'threaten' people. Why hasn't this post been reported and shut down?
  2. Question is, what is the PH of soilles medium? Can't find a clear answer on Google, also, if I water with a lower PH water will that reduce the PH of the medium? If yes, how long before it does?
  3. That is not the issue at this point. The soil is brand new and has never been used before. I have 6 inch plants and seedling just starting up I also used the soil for cucumbers and since lowering the ph I am seeing great results. The PH is something overlooked by most soil medium growers. Hydroponic growers are more into this usually in my experience from when I did hydro. Right now I just want to set myself up with strong mother plants from different strains then I might start cloning them and go back to hydro. I was out of the game for over 20 years but seeing how the regulations have changed my interest has spiked again.
  4. Seen some of that at Mega Home. I grew 20 years ago and have just come back into the game. I kinda am old school. Now they have feminized... photoperiod... auto-flower... It is taking some time to catch up. What is the ph of soil-less medium? and how do you go about fertilizing? I will give it a try but if you have any inside info I am here to listen and learn. My main interest still remains the ph... as that is one of the corner stones to great weed, IMHO.
  5. Hey Trippy, PH neutral is not ideal for weed. Read my post just prior to yours. It tells which PH weed likes best. The best solution I found so far is to water with wood vinegar (which has a ph of 2.5-3.0) once or twice a month and dilute and adjust the ph with water to around 6.0-6.2. as @Mr Meeseeks recommends water at desired ph after that. I also always adjust my ph in the water using fish pond water ph reducer to get the ph I want. I will use sulphur and wood vinegar in my compost and soil to reduce the ph to around 6.2. I used to do hydro with a ph of around 7 and the results were okish. I already see significant improvements in the color and grow rate even after a couple of days. If you are happy with a ph of 7.0 @Trippy then you will be a lot happier if you adjust your ph.
  6. 5.8 – 6.2 Cannabis, like many plants, prefers slightly acidic soil conditions. It tolerates a wide pH range (5.0-7.0) without symptoms of bronzing or interveinal chlorosis (yellowing of top leaves), but pH levels outside of the optimal range of 5.8 – 6.2 will limit growth.Mar 5, 2020 Maybe this answers your question? I grew some feminized auto-flower last time and they came out <deleted>. I am narrowing down all the causes. PH was a big factor. Of course nutrients and watering are too... so are many others. But turns out plants like pot absorb nutrients best at a lower ph.
  7. After some research I have found that wood vinegar has a ph of 2.5-3.0 and can be diluted and used top water plants once a month. This might help reduce the ph. It is also, apparently, good to treat soil and compost prior to planting plants. Maybe this will work. Feedback and first hand experience are more than welcome.
  8. And will that lower the PH of the soil? If so, does it take many waterings before reaching desired PH?
  9. I am in soil. Dirt purchased at Megahome Hardware store and 20% my household compost. Hmmm everything I read about vinegar suggests otherwise Hmmm... --> Muriatic Acid and Soil Like any acidic substance, muriatic acid can technically be used to neutralize soil, if you use enough of it. However, it is not generally a good option because of how caustic it is. When put into the soil, muriatic acid does not necessarily degrade very much. https://homeguides.sfgate.com/muriatic-acid-safe-acidify-soil-gardens-80524.html No simple solution for sure. I just can't believe that there are so few answers and solutions out there. Darn, am I one of the few who has encountered this problem? Seems doubtful.????
  10. The soil comes from Megahome. Question is... what do people use to lower the PH? I read that acid can be used. Just hoping for a simple solution to a seemingly difficult problem ; (
  11. Hi fellow growers, I am wondering how you guys lower the PH in your soil. Lowering PH in water is easy enough but soil... that is a whole different ball game. Yesterday I asked my better half to order sulphur as it seems to do the job according to my queries on the internet. I keep reading about 'elemental sulphur' but is is impossible to find here so I will try sulphur straight up. A solution I tried was to make my water for watering the plants at a PH of 6.0 but the PH of my dirt is stuck at 7.0 to 6.8. I want to get it down around 6.2-6.4 which is, so far, near impossible to do. Raising the PH is a cinch, just add baking soda. If anyone out there has a solution to solve this problem I am sure it will help quite a few people here.
  12. Hip, Hip, Hooray!!! Put the fear of God in the Frackers!
  13. I fail to get the point of your post @rankric. What are you trying to say?
  14. It seems to me that a director of a school who owns a palm oil business is doing quite well for himself. It is a known fact that directors skim ofc the top of their allocated budgets. The school lunch scandal reorted on not so long ago comes to mind. I think these directors need to be audited regularly in order to maintain transparency. Everyone deplores the education in Thailand, yet the budget allocated is one of the most significant in this country. I believe the reason for the failure is likely that the money gets funneled into the wrong pockets and in the end it is all of us who suffer for the lack of skills in this country.
  15. If you can't handle a variety of how people deal with problems then maybe you should not start OP's. Frankly I think you need a skirt rather than trousers. I won't get out of the way for people who hog the sidewalk because they are self-important. I would do the same thing even if I were 3 foot 6. Lay off the keyboard maybe you will find some inner peace.
  16. I especially love those who walk side by side (and this is in every country and culture) who won't queue when encountering people coming in the opposite direction. I am a healthy 6 foot 110kg man and when this happens I don't budge. I love it when people walk into me. It is like hitting a wall especially when I have momentum. Thing is... they can't get angry cos I did nothing wrong. This post reminds me of the video 'Bitter sweet Symphony" by the verve.
  17. Turn off your VPN. Google usually asks the catchpa thingy if people are using one.
  18. I actually have no worries about that cos I have nothing to hide. At their discretion they can pop-in anyone's home any time and there is nothing we can do about it. We are 4th class citizens here. Moreover, I honestly don't believe the IO was filming our encounter. Even if he did he did not get much of a gander of the house. But I get what you are saying.
  19. It is a mina bird. They go around in packs and can even learn some basic words. Super clever birds. I love to watch them because even if they are clever they do the stupidest things. I once saw one fall off a wall... wonderfully funny birds.
  20. Here in Rayong they did mine via Line app and web cam. My witness had to be present and we had to talk to agent from inside the house and outside where my address is posted.
  21. I have one with 3 different filters and a UV light. We have been drinking using this device for 6 years now. You have to maintain the filters regularly, every 6 months or so. No smell nor any after taste and haven't had to buy water since then and for 7000 bht I believe this is money well spent. The brand is 'Clarte'. Easy to install and maintain. Make sure if you buy one that it has a UV light. I use a UV light on my fish pond connected after all my water filters and all the hoses are dirty with algae except the one connected to the UV light going into the fish tank. UV lights rock and are worth the investment. Just read what @n8sail said after the fact and what he says about home water filters is spot on.
  22. Not quite. Isuzu pick ups with buckets of freezing water and the whole neighborhood dancing drunk in the box, and pvc water guns and drunks riding on their motorbikes ... that is the hillbilly version. Not the one where elders gently poor water on family members' hands. Which one do you prefer or partake in? My wife and I actually barricade ourselves in during these deadly days.
  23. Hmmm which version of the festival will be a UNESCO thingy? The Hillbilly Songkran where 100's die? or the traditional one where elders are revered and water is poured gently on nong's hands? Must be the Hillbilly one cos in 20 years living here never saw the traditional one being practiced anywhere. Only heard about it going on somewhere up in Chiangmai.
  24. Not just in Thailand dude. This a a global phenomenon. Back home the red tape for welfare makes it so difficult to get anything to the point that the homeless are overtaking public parks. And if that ain't enough every year dozens die of exposure during the winter months. The world sucks and only the 1% truly get anything out of this world. OCCUPY WALL STREET!!!! lol ; )
  25. We must be neighbors without know it. I hate the training plane the just hovers around on Mondays or Tuesdays... and yeah pretty close indeed.
