When can I start feeding with Lightmix?
Lightmix is already pre-fertilized for one week. Start feeding after one week.
Do I need to check and adjust the pH value if I use Lightmix?
Yes, Lightmix has been formulated to grow using mineral nutrition. This means that the pH value affects how the feed is absorbed.
Can I use Alga Grow and Alga Bloom if I use Lightmix?
Yes. However, the best choice is Promix.
Can I germinate seeds in Lightmix?
Yes, but it's best not to. Lightmix fibers can limit plant growth, and the nutrients in Lightmix will retard root growth. The aerated structure also means that contact between seeds and moist soil is not as good. This prevents the seeds from absorbing the moisture they need to start germinating. Our Seed & Cut Soil avoids these problems and increases germination rate and speed, resulting in more uniform plants.
