About Dr. Bruce Bugbee:
Dr. Bruce Bugbee is an American scientist with a prestigious educational and research background with degrees from the University of Minnesota (Bachelor of Science), University of California, Davis (Master of Science), and Penn State University (Ph.D.). His work includes research into space farming with NASA to help develop regenerative life support systems. He and his students developed a dwarf variety of wheat that has been used in several studies on the Space Station, and he is currently working with NASA to study the use of fiber optics for growing plants in space.
After 34-years Dr, Bugbee is still located at Utah State University, where he is the Director of the Crop Physiology Laboratory. Athena is proud to be partnering with him in our pursuit of commitment; to never stop innovating. Innovation distinguishes a leader from a follower. Partnering with Dr. Bruce Bugbee at Utah State University allows Athena access to a team of research analysts running trials for various studies. Results to further develop better products and more consistent methods of cultivating the plant we all love.
Love how clear and to the point this is. Answers 5 hard questions real quick and still goes deeper than most info online.
Bugbee is the Biggest G in the game, true science at its best ❤
I agree "those tenths of a PH aren't that critical" definitely got me on that one. Bruce is a gold mind, hopefully we can keep the cash out this for the most part and move the needle of understanding.
you are the best. no bro science here ! All knowledge he's the top G
This is interesting stuff. I grow in Ocean Forest soil with Dr Earth's Flower Girl and extra worm castings for top dressing for flower. And I buy bottled spring water because the local water is full of bad heavy metals and chemicals. I don't mess with the pH because I don't need to. It seems like I don't run into issues unless the plants need fertilizer.
I know it's different with bottled nutes and pH is more important that way. So I do the organic thing. I also use Recharge or Stash Blend to boost the biology and provide sugars and stuff.
Good man
I’m using living soil and haven’t PH since I starting using it. It’s my understanding that the microbes figure it out for you. They mine the nutrients and feed it to the roots in exchange for sugars. I’m no expert but I’m having the best yields and quality I’ve ever had, and I don’t flush either. Watering is key tho. I’ve got a sour chem 78 in mid flower in a 15gal grassroots drinking 3 to 4 ltr a day. She is over 6.5 ft tho and growing through the lights. Proper over vegged, was not expecting that stretch 🤦♂️🤣
Happy growing people 🤙🇬🇧
These videos are awesome!!!
Thanks for going straight to the point and tear it down this way Mr. Bugbee, I really appreciate how deep you go within these topics without being boring. Keep it going!! Cheers from Colombia 🤘🔥
Always great info from bruce!
Just keep it swinging throughout the week between those numbers 👀
Grow debugging with Dr. Bugbee 🤘🏽❤️
Thank you sir 🙌❤️🙌
I like 6.7-6.8
Dr.bruce do you have any recomendations for outdoor growing
Funny because I’m pretty sure Athena was saying 5.8 max in veg lol
Love the videos the way they are dont change anything or listen to idiots
Content is great, music is unfortunately corny
what if running organics? does this still count?
Funfacts:
Scottish tap water no.1
Already peaty 6.8
England 7.2
Scotlands, Taste amazing but surprizingly your liver hates it.
Englands, taste awful but your liver will love it.
Sctlands closed circuit heating/boiler will concentrate the acid after 20 years and rot the piping
Englands would concentrate and clog the system with limescale/lime stone.
A few points 0.1 either way can make alot of diffence in many ways
Six. Or yellow with the pH dropper kit (aka beet juice)
Yup nothing beats the dripper and that piss yellow
I'd like to see some information on Hydroponics. Please.
Music too loud
6.1 from veg to flower coco. If I be perfect seedling and veg 18 hour light on 5.8 5.9 6.0. Max in flower 6.1 6.2 after week 4 best 6.3 6.4 max
🖐️ does Mn stand for manganese or micro nutrient 😛
I'll see myself out.
Manganese.
is bruce saying soil needs to be 6 - 6.5 or coco?
I think dr. Bugbee use a mix of peat+vermiculite, then 6.0~6.5 is good in that medium, but for pure coco is better in a range of 5.8~6.2 in My opinion
How to adjuste ph without add chemical drop in the water to lower the ph for example ?
Organic ph up/down
Vinegar
Is it the same for growing in Coco Coir being an inert media? 6 to 6.5 being ideal or is it better to be at 5.7 to 6.2. Thank you for all you do. I am learning so much from your videos, from so many different content creators. Iwant to take your course as soon as I can afford it.. LoL Being on limited income at 64 yrs old
5.8 to 6.2 is recommended for coco coir
@@rkano1744 Thank you, That is good to here because I have been hitting 6.0 very regular, 5.9 just a few times so I am more confident now that I got some confermation. I also switched to Canna Coco Nute line at low dose and am already seeing awesome results! I am being careful because I am out of sink with the Dots. If I were to ever do Dots again I would go with the hempy pots of sort. but I think I like the Cana line for my style
Never had a problem running 5.8-6.5 in coco. Long as it's within range I put it in the put. Currently average 6 oz per auto in 1 gal pot and 13oz off photos in 1 gal pots.
@@dadstent bro how ? I just seen your vid, what’s the recipe?
@@dadstent 13 oz from 1 gallon pot. You either lie or your bud is WELL over fertilized and taste like chemical. U pick
Don’t need to ph adjust if you have good nutrients
Or grow in soil and coco and use rain water.
Rain water has no magnesium. Coco is needing more magnesium!
@suki4410
Yeah agreed, indoor add cal mag bloom yellow bottles.
I find pH 6.8 works best
The word you’re looking for is acidic. You want it slightly acidic 1:11
5.8-6.2
Different cultivars like Different pH levels and ec levels 😢
Maybe on the moon or Mars. This is studies over plant physiology and this has chemistry backing it alongside physics and science. The EC is a variable but the ph is very relative to all plants that consume nutrients.😅
