Is this why my led causes purple stems? Same plants on the hps side no issues whatsoever
Possibly, mate. I remember reading (I think when we were on the other site) that plants need more under LED.
If that was referring to all LED, or just the blurple ones (that were mainly around then) I cannot tell.

The thing with Verve is that it's not consistent. I've used it for weed, tomatoes as well as chillies. EVERY time with tomatoes, I'll get blossom end rot with Verve. A good spray with cal-mag always fixes the issues.
Confused on why everyone there uses verve, is it hard to get earthworm castings and peat moss? To build a soil basically.
And amend it how you please

It's cheap and not too strong. The quality can vary vastly as well.
Peat moss isn't easy to get everywhere. Worm shit takes a while to produce and not everyone has the space etc for one. Even composting horse shit and grass cuttings takes time.
Never give advice. Wise men don't need advice. Fools won't take it.

ive said all i can aspie ive never ever needed it + under led if the dopes being fed enough feed + stems are purple its cold root syndrome. :oik!:
It can also be a strain trait.

I've had it on my plants from time to time, but I can't say that it's ever been cold in the tent. I'm not saying you're wrong, I am saying it's not the only cause.

That's not a bad thing.
It's the same as online porn. You may not need it, but it's there for back up, just in case.

What a stupid statement.... of course you NEED online porn!
The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear.
