Thanks for the tip Doc
What benefit(s) would be achieved in so doing?
There is 4.9% sulfer in the Citrus FeED?

I like to learn new tricks and tweaks.
Thank you!
The extra potassium and sulfur will do wonders for the quality of your final product. Highly recommended.
K2SO4 is the "secret ingredient" in many bloom formulas.

Protekt is the only one I wasn't going to pick up... Have the Foliage, Bloom, and Mag in my cart.
Contact them and get the sample pack.

Click contact them and email or call to get sample pack of a few different items. Comes with quart each of the protekt and foliage pro and some pint bottles.

Is foliage really all that?. The cal/mag levels look really low compared to what I've read mj likes during most stages. The P level what does that work out too in PPM?. I read over 70/80 ppm P will force myko to go dormant (or kill them off?).

Obviously it works or you would not suggest it, just wondering if you think it's that good.
It works. I have used it. Works great.

I don't use it now.
I have run it, to see how it works. It does fine, in soil that is balanced. I suggest it for newer growers because it's easy and one part.

I run my own soils - organic....

If your running soiless/tupor mix's. I would add a bit of Ca/Mg.

Never ran it in any hydro and personally wouldn't suggest it for that.

There is quite the following for Good old Jack's classic. I would suggest the Citrus for the added Sulfur.

To add color to Chunky Stools post.

I don't add anything to my RO - I build the soils to cover the lack of buffering content of the RO.

In anything other then my own soils. I would always add a Cal Carb based Ca/Mg to my RO.....My opinion.
Works in hydro.

For anyone wondering I've decided to go with Jacks Citrus 1/2 tsp every feeding and 1/4 tsp Potassium Sulfate every feeding during flowering. We shall see how it goes.

Might be a bit strong on the feeding at 1/2tsp.......
1/4 is a better place to start!

After all. Tis far better to have to add more, then work out a problem from too much!

Did you use it with photo or autos?. Just wondering if you feel it matters.

Anybody know of a dry variant, if it's actually possible.
Both. Mainly photos.

People have been duped into thinking cannabis needs a special flower formula. It doesn't.

It actually goes to show that a feed high in N is perfectly fine for cannabis from start to finish.

With autos higher N feeds is key for bigger plants. Flowering nutes will induce flower inautos.



Folaige pro is also great for deficiencies. It has the instruction for fixing them. Lime 1 ml per gallon.

I'm not under any illusions of flowering myths, but as I understand the calcium amount in f-pro is low depending on water source or lack of soil amendment (possibly strain too?). Either way, what is a rough calcium ppm range veg/flower?.

Top dress with some indonesian bat guano (0-7-0 17% calcium) around week 5 and watch your buds swell. :leaf:

Its provided all I needed. If it is a concern add a bit of lime to the mix or get a small bottle of cal/mag for when it is needed.
