I'd like to thank all the members who replied to my questions. I will follow the growing and caring suggestions from all of you. As for 'ArronOB's' suggestions, I will look for better plants for hot/warm weather. As for the Aliceara (thank you 'Estacion seca' for the correct nothagenus). I just bought this plant 'ArronOB', and I will try hard to keep her alive "I love a challenge".
Ray, it's been a few years since last we spoke. I have bought some of your excellent products in the past. Your explanations about how to make use of water and the chemistry behind it are always fascinating to me. I try to understand and do my best to accomplish as close as possible to what you suggest. I've just watered my plants, I mixed 64 ounces of tap water (175 TDS-PPM ((today)) with 64 ounces of distilled water (I get my distilled water from AC runoff), and I got the PH to 5.87 with no fertilizer. I try to water them every 7 to 10 days with 1/4 teaspoon of fertilizer (based on how fast they start drying out). I had to water twice this week because of the heat, so I didn't use fertilizer. Do you feel that the mixing of my tap water and distilled water makes a good base for watering? I will add fertilizer to this water for regular watering. What type of fertilizer would you recommend?
Again, I would like to thank the members that replied to my inquiries. Have a wonderful Veterans Day, Zoren.
