I would recommend pura vida. Use the grow and bloom and havnt looked back.

yes but i have already purchased the earth juice. i'm sure it'll work. but would you REALLY recommend the pura vida over the earth juice? what are the differences you've noticed using the pv over the ej? you've used both and seem to have some knowledge on the 2.

i just finally got a tester and using all 5 EJ nutes it is reading 4.6 on ph . So i added probably 4 TB of ph up to get it to 6.5. Is that too much up ? thats more up then it is food? Should i be switching to a organic up instead of the general hydroponics up ... or will i be fine using the GH up ?

my babies are locked up bigtime! Tom do you think this will unlock um?

Yes correcting the pH should get em back on track
I think the Earth Juice makes an organic pH up and down, here is a link: http://www.planetnatural.com/site/ea...ral-ph-up.html

That same site sells the natural pH down too

I don't see where it would be a problem using it

thanks cc thats answers the last question. but i guess i'm still going to use the fish fert and ej combo. we'll see how she goes.

i use the alaska fish for veg and bloom and use ej micro blast.1T veg,1T bloom,and 2t microblast per gallon of water.the schedule i use is nutes,nutes,nutes,water,nutes,nutes,nutes,water,ex t.i have no problems at all.i flush with just water for the last too weeks and i use only the bloom and microblast after 2 weeks into bud.i would suggest experimenting and find what works best with your strains as well as your set up,good luck

hey john thanks man for real it helps. i heard theres not a lot of burning with these nutes but DAMN! 3 hits of nutes then 1 water all throughout grow? does it affect the taste, well i suppose not they're organic. i'm not saying i'll follow that completely but it gives me a better idea. hmm, so no problems at all with that setup? no bad burn or taste to bud? hows the smoke?
