from all the nutes i have tried i couldnt tell you if i saw increases, but i can tell you i didnt have white salty residue anymore, i had stable PH and PPM didnt lfuxuate, aside from that i never seen healthier, happier plants every! super problem free and i think the stuff makes everything taste soil grown. i buy the stuff cus PBP has humic, citric acid, silica and raw cane sugar already in it

hey I am pretty sure it was you that said you were using the pure blend pro nutes and really liked it? if so did your yields increase or decrease with the switch? would you recommend these nutes?

yea any old spray will do. you can leav a regular house spider alone....good bugs bro, they dont eat plants and they feast on all other bugs. if you want you can spray around the outside of your tent but watch out spraying into the fresh air supply. if you ever have a chance you can pick up a few different products that are easy on the wallet and very safe on your plants. neem oil, safer soaps and my favorite is a product from fox farms called " dont bug me". i highly syggest these products as a precautionary spraying for every couple of weeks, on your plants and around your tent. although if you got hit with a full blown infestation bugs use these sprays as mouthwash! these are only the front line in a bug battle. eventually you will get hit with bugs, its inevitable the most seasoned and precatious growers get hit, thats when the war only begins and you will start spending $$$

hey i was wondering if you could answer a question for me, i have my tent set up at my house now in my unfinished basement and it seems to have spiders i actually just saw a spider in my tent, is it okay to use regular spider spray throughout the basement or would that some how effect the plants?

change your rez every 10-14 days, OR... once the volume of water has been replaced totally by top offs, ie. 50gallon starting res was topped off once every 2 days with 10 gallons of water, the 10day would be a total of 50 gallons worth of top offs

They where born on Thanksgiving 09..... So you only change your rez once a month? Thanks for the vote of confidence.

hygrozyme takes care of anything, using it should put your mind at ease, use peroxide to clean your equipment after a run. as for your plants not taking up nutrients, how old are they? you have to figure to get a good build up of salts it takes around a month, i dont know if your starting rez ppm(nutes mixed in) is too strong. sometimes that lucas formula works great but its not a one size fits all. the clearex you should let run like the bottle says, until ppms stop rising. in my experience with it that takes atleast 24hours or like 6-8 flood/drain cycles. you did good, my advice would be to flush like you did with clearex once a month to avoid those nasty ppm and ph spikes, start off with weaker nutrient mix and watch the ppms, its ok for the ppms to rise but nothing drastic. the sweet spot is when your ppm stays the same or drops as water is consumed, this will be the indicator to bump her up 100-200ppm

So, my question is this. (sorry for the back story) When you use Hygrozyme in your formula how often do you dump the res? From what I have read I do not need to use h2o2 anymore b/c it will destroy the hygrozyme. Do you worry about your rez getting slimy without the use of h2o2?

I saw your form. on the CAP thread and I really like it. My ? is about the Hygrozyme. I just started with it yesterday 10 ml/gl. I am also running 30 tsp/ gal Cal Mag plus. The rest of my nutes are GP Lucas form. My prob. was that my plants where drinking the water like crazy, but not the nutes. My level was going down but my PPM was raising like crazy. So yesterday I dumped the res and filled with tap water and Clearex and flushed 5 cycles. The ppm on the flush started at 144 then when I was done it was 452. I dumped the res again and rep. the clearex rinse for another 3 cycles. The ppm went from 144 to 220 this time. So I am hoping this will solve the nute lockout I have. So now I have added the hygrozyme. Even with the use of h2o2 my roots on a couple of plants are brownish. I started the res at around 900 PPM and I will + to 1300 when they start accepting nutes again. My rez temps stay around 65.

hey MG! Im back home and at it again! I was readin and saw a post from you and wanted to say hey, anyway, thanks for the advice with my cab.
