Should this be used only when i add nutes every third feed?

Im currently giving them 5ml each of coco a+b to 5 litre of water every third feed...

How much rhizotonic should i add to this.. or could i just mix it with my normal water?

Ive heard it helps newly planted clones and stressed plants.. my plants were heat stressed and have currently being planted for 1 week...

Growing in coco soil and 20 % perlite!

3 jack herrer clones.. One Died due to the Heat :(

Thanks

dont you find that nutrient salts get locked up in the medium?....

Dont you ever just give them straight water?

What amount of coco a+b and rhizotonic to 5 litres do you use..

So that i can use my 5 litre bucket to mix up my nutrient mix

I am very worried ill over nute these clones lol!

i have fed them every 3rd watering but your grow went well so i must b doing something wrong!!!

Also!! is rhizotonic a nutrient or root stimualtor?... im mean.. i wont have to 1/4 the dose will i if its not a nute? im using 1/4 strength coco a&b so i could use the recommended does of rhizotonic and not 1/4 it......

I went to get some today for £10 on my lunch.. also a ph kit and shringe

SO i need to aim to get a ph between 5.5 and 6.5 ?

i always go half or 1/4 of whatever and work my way up.

companies give you that formula to sell more product. you can fucking burn the shit out of your plants if you arent careful.

but rhizo is not a nute.. is a root stimulator.. and the npk is like 0.4 0.3 0.2 or something.. so i thought i would have been able to dump the full dose in

Hi,

In my last crop I got a nasty infestation. I mixed in a hydrogen peroxide solution to kill the larvae but it also killed the root system. A friend suggested using Rhizotonic in all grows in future to build a stronger plant base so that IF (fingers crossed) I have to use HP again, the plant will be able to stand strong.

Is this true and if so where should I buy it from? I am thinking of going with these guys because they are local to me.

Advice would be appreciated!

Rhizotonic will help plants recover from stress and help build a good root system, but its not for use during flowering (you dont want root production in that phase) and it will not protect against disease or bacteria. Cannazym is what you want, it cleans your root system out and breaks down dead matter, giving any harmful bacteria no food to live on.

I use both consistently with my grows and I found that rhizotonic will not typically burn vegging plants (although on seedlings or clones you should use it very sparingly) but throughout the veg stage I use both at about 1/2 strength and during flower I only use the cannazym at 1/2
