Give me some input on my 30 Autopot nute regime.

So here we go after all the research, so tell me if I did a good job.

Spect: 30 Autopot, 45 Gallon. Chemdog


0. Plain Cal Maged Water of 150ppm, until 3 to 4 set of new leaves come out.

1. Week. Goal Ppm: 0 ( Cal Mag would not count because its an additive right? )
Plain Cal Mag - RO Water of 100ppm for X Amount of days until 3-4 set of new leaves come out.

2. Goal Ppm: 300
After 3 sets of new leaves. Goal Ppm
Cal Mag ( Need to test 100 ppm ( Additive so don't count in real ppm right? )
Sensi A 150 ppm, 200ml
Sensi B 150 ppm, 200ml
Liquid Karma 0 ppm, 450 ml

3. Goal Ppm :650 ppm
Cal Mag 100ppm
Sensi A 325ppm, 424ml
Sensi B 325ppm, 424ml
Liquid Karma 0, 450ml
H202 130ml to Wash of any bacteria, mold, fungus caused by Cocoir perlite.

4. Goa 950 ppm
Cal Mag 100 ppm
Sensi A 620ml
Sensi B 620ml

5. Goal 1250ppm
Cal Mag
A- 625ppm, 815ml
B- 625ppm, 815ml
Liquid Karma 0, 450ml

Does it look solid, how is this guys?

are those meant to be the 4 weeks of veg? there are some issues there. you should measure out the dosages of a&b first. they should be even dosages...not ppm levels. measure them evenly till you get to a ppm level. also, measure a&b first to the desired ppm level and then add the 150ppm of cal/mag. no experience with liquid karma or running h2o2. if those are the weeks in veg you are jumping up too fast. if you are using r/o water then i would do another nute plus cal/mag for seedlings/cuttings. like thrive alive b-1 or clonex measure to about 75ppm with 75ppm of cal/mag. simple 150ppm solution till they are rooted. then that is considered your first day of veg.

I am not sure why I am jumping too fast, I've read that it is best to jump 300ppm every week of vegetative stage.
As for the ppm, I came out with a number that in 45 gallons every 1 ml of sensi A, or B, increases .766 ppm.


My biggest concern is the validation of ppm from additive can be disregarded or not, that the nute should only be based on base nutrients, that being my Sensi A and B.

first week of veg is after they are rooted and have 3-4 sets of new leaves. before that just a 150ppm solution like i said. then 300ppm first week of veg. go up 200ppm every week after that. if you have no burn then the next crop you can push it a little harder. maybe 250ppm jump every week.

look at your chart. you go from 300 to 650 to 1250. you are gonna fry your plants. trust me. i use sensi grow. max is like 300, 600, 900. my plants tend to tap out at 950-1050 in veg. they don't want anymore nutes than that. and that is pushing it. every strain is different. better to give them less than it is to give them more. some strains that i have don't like more than 800ppm in veg.

you can't mix base nutes on ppm alone. you have to add the same amount of both and you will see with sensi grow that part a will increase ppm more than part b.

i don't know about liquid karma cause i have never used it. if it affects your ppm then it needs to be factored in to your total. so does cal/mag. that will affect your ppm.

that number you have for your base nutes may be a good starting point but i would measure up slowly in the beginning till you get used to it. better to have to add more nutes than it is to be wasting them.
