    Default Expert with liquid nutrients needed

    Does anyone have an idea of how much of grow/micro/bloom i should add to a 1 gallon AeroGarden reservoir at start? I know that i shouldn't start adding nutrients before 10 days of planting the seed in the aeroGarden Medium, but i couldn't find an accurate explanation of how many ml i should start with and how much should i increase the dose every week, i'm still a newbie and worried about doing anything wrong, the plant got its root down to the water already, It's 1 week old now

    P.S. i have the Flora Series

    You can also call general hydroponic and ask to talk to a tech. They will walk you through everything. Great customer service, just don't mention cannabis, they know what your growing so it need not be mentioned!!! I also use GH products and would never stray from them..here are a few of my recent crop..all GHIMAG0462.jpgIMAG0454.jpg

    Soon as you see the second pair of leaves (not including the embryonic set) go with 1/4 strength. I wouldn't wait much longer otherwise you will leach them a bit and as a result they get a slow start. Ditch the grow and just use the micro and bloom. If your water is close to hard (120-199ppm on a hanna .5 conversion scale, for truncheon multiply that ppm by 1.4) dose 15mL/Gal of GH Bloom and 7.5mL/Gal of GH Micro for full strength ( use 1/4 of that in the beginning) res resulting in 941-1020 ppm (.5 conv.) If your water is relatively soft (35-119ppm, .5 conv.) use 16mL/Gal of GH Bloom and 8mL/Gal of GH Micro for the aforementioned result (lucas ratio). Your pH will start around 5.6-5.7. Be careful in the beginning when running 1/4 strength as you run the risk of hurting the babies if you use pH adjusters. When ppm is low , even a small amount of pH up will do a disproportionate (read: wild up swing) amount of work. Try to avoid pH adjusters in the beginning "1/4 strength mode". If you feel the need to raise the pH a little, just use a small amount (1.5mL/Gal) of potassium silicate at the onset ( just once after you change water, not daily as a pH UP replacement) will do.

    Man this is confusing me now! The bottle says on the 3rd week I should start with 2.5mL/10liters (2.64Gallon) and the numbers you are talking about are way much higher, are you sure these numbers are for only 1 gallon reservoir ?
