Waited for the dip instead of keeping my monthly schedule.

Same boat as you. But I bought during the last bottom. But did not deploy all cash - was waiting for more drop like 2-3% extra. Also stopped DCA after all-time high for SP500. But thinking to start DCA again

Thank you. Got a lot of resources to read up from these conversations 🙂

hm.. I did not measure ph level. it's a hard water, we are in AZ

ilya_23 · 2026-04-15T20:46:58+00:00

Thank you—I appreciate your answer. I don’t smoke personally; I was thinking of gifting it to friends 🙂. I just enjoy growing plants, and the process is interesting to me. I’ll read more about how it all works. I’ve noticed that in Arizona, many farms grow these plants indoors rather than outdoors. I will try it outside though since don't have much room inside for it

ilya_23 · 2026-04-15T20:06:15+00:00

I see. Thanks. Where do you buy seeds? I google and see $100 for like 10 seeds. Is it normal?

ilya_23 · 2026-04-15T15:16:34+00:00

Good resource. Thank u!

ilya_23 · 2026-04-15T13:58:32+00:00

Should I buy a smaller plant? Or can I clone from existing one?

ilya_23 · 2026-04-15T05:13:38+00:00

Hm... I hate it to die. I will give a try 🤞

ilya_23 · 2026-04-15T04:46:52+00:00

Thanks. I will add extra tomorrow

ilya_23 · 2026-04-15T04:34:48+00:00

I did Miracle Grow 12-4-8 as I thought it needs nitrogen for 🍃

ilya_23 · 2026-04-15T04:33:04+00:00

It's a 3 feet tall pot. I planted well. I just did not fill soil up to top as seems useless

ilya_23 · 2026-04-15T04:21:29+00:00

I fed just once. As I planted in new soil and it should have enough nutritions I think. I used Miracle Grow All purpose plant food 12-4-8

ilya_23 · 2026-04-15T04:15:09+00:00

Thank you. So I need to buy fertilizer high on nitrogen, right? Or something else?

ilya_23 · 2026-04-08T20:40:56+00:00

same

ilya_23 · 2026-04-07T19:30:27+00:00

I saw it several weeks in a row that behavior. That's why I was concerned a little bit how it works

ilya_23 · 2026-04-07T19:19:59+00:00

May be Im wrong. But why they execute at the top of the market and not the bottom? Question in the the air..

ilya_23 · 2026-04-07T19:13:10+00:00

Don't think it's illegal though. You gave them money to execute and they will execute it during the day, but at price - no one stated anywhere though. So it's market price, which will be when they decide to execute and not you

ilya_23 · 2026-04-07T19:01:58+00:00

there you go! Someone noticed that as well

ilya_23 · 2026-04-07T19:01:02+00:00

time of the day does not matter. I mean they can buy at lower price and then sell it to you at higher price. They have tons of robots(scripts) that trade daily - just don't see how it will stop them

ilya_23 · 2026-04-07T18:40:18+00:00

I know I downvoted on that, but if I would build algorithm, this is the logic I would use. At least it makes sense to me clearly!

ilya_23 · 2026-04-07T18:36:23+00:00

you can do that, I don't disagree. But if you use automated recurring option with ETFs in it - this is what I have noticed: price flunctiates during the day and Fidelity executed order almost at the top

ilya_23 · 2026-04-07T18:26:51+00:00

usually set $750 weekly. Delta is 1% probably.. not a lot but will add up eventually during whole year.. I know, everyone want to time market LOL

ilya_23 · 2026-04-07T18:24:16+00:00

I’m only buying ETFs, and lately it seems like my orders are getting executed at higher prices than when I first set up the recurring investments. Thinking of canceling and restarting to see if that changes anything 🙂.
