And thanks for the answers man. RIU really shit the bed as far as the new search tool goes. I cant find anything im looking for ever! I used to just brows threads and make up my own theories based on what the masses were saying and whos arguement made the most sence. Now i cant even find the information im looking for. Its faster to just ask/harass members for information.

Im really hoping gardenboss finds this thread and chimes in. I know he uses maxsea and i think i saw an ICB water container just like mine in the middle of his grow.

The reason I was kinda vague is because there is no "exact" rules with Maxsea. If you follow the label directions you will be fine. I have found Maxsea to be very forgiving & you can adjust usage up & down as desired. I have seen guy's do well just using it occasionally as a booster to their regular feeding, to guy's raging it triple dosing (3tlb per gl) and growing MONSTERS!...what I gave you were the general guidelines I follow when using Maxsea. I add Epsom salts about every other feeding, you can use more, you can use less, depending on how green your plants are. A little Epsom will get them nice & green but don't over do it, start with every other week & increase if they aren't staying green for the entire 2 weeks...good luck
edit: I tend to stick with label directions (1tbl per gl) & increase frequency, rather than upping the doseage...

thats the think with maxsea. It works so good that you can cater it to ypur needs. Regular feeding or booster or increased feedings.
