Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Hi all, my chili pepper plants all are growing well but are dropping their chilis before they get ripe. Also many of the flowers don't make fruit.

Nitrates are high, I supplement iron, maxicrop and I have oyster shells in the water. pH is 6.0.

What you guys think?

Add a little Potassium BiCarbonate to your system.... you can usually get it from Wine Making Shops...

Will bring your pH back a bit... and provide a Potassium boost....

aww shucks rupe, duh. Thank you very much.

I've got a whole bunch of the stuff. Going to add it tomorrow.
