i cant really answer this exactly, but id think if youre having problems, reducing your mixture by 50% is a good start. just allows you to keep your mixing proportions in even amounts for calculations and if you dont notice a change for the better you can reduce by 50% again. what are you growing @boogie4200 ?

Same here, though not quite as many guanos ... But I'm new to this

Last grow I used AN Sensi A&B (ph perfect), Big Bud, Bud Candy, Overdrive, and B-52 (I think that was all of it) at about 50% - 75% strength for flower. For veg I used straight Happy Frog. That was my first indoor grow, and it went really well actually. I was happy with the nutrients, but I want organic just because I do, so no more of that for me. That really was a killer first grow though :-)

Oh, I used Happy Frog with a little added perlite but nothing else. I transplanted to bigger pots for flower, with FFOF and added perlite, then started adding flower nutes a few weeks later very light, then "full strength" (50-75%) some time after that (I forget exactly, and this Cotton Candy is good) :-)

Here's a little of my Green Crack...

Can you explain. Thanks

Sure. I don't know what u guys use for a fertilizer in bloom but I try to stay organic. Which most synthetic ferts are a ph down. I use spring water and my ph is 7 from the spring. The coca cola is a solid 4.4 ph and has a lot of malasses and some k. And the wonderful sugar we all try to find. I also use the coke in week 4 when the salts are built up in the roots. It dissolves salt.

Somebody seen me making my teas the other day and he laughed his ass off and said that in Colorado they use Dr pepper. I found the benefits while goofing around with ph strips. I get tons of crystals on my buds and I'm organic.

I liked the Espoma reference. I used Plantone outside in the garden.
I love all the beneficials they add.

Oh absolutely not, I'm doing my first one and holy cow! I can't believe this kind growth is happening in 5 gallons of soil without getting burned. All it takes is a well areated 5gal bucket and a filter sock or tube and even that's not required either. I'm using rootballs from the male plants, a scoop from the mulch pile along with your mentionables, it all goes in the sock with a splash of molasses. You can use it in a few hours. The best advice I received is to leave them alone and don't overwater them

I am going to brew my own mix for a tea instead of buying ready made stuff. Trousers has a good looking recipe going on! I think I am gonna use the dwc rubbermaid container that I start out using for hydro and get tired of changing all that water and so forth and always end up putting them in soil lol. I have a bad back and I can't lift those containers full of water all the time. So I think I will use the dwc container and let it bubble in there and just dip it out and give it to the girls.

And is this correct this stuff is only good for a few days??[/QUOTE
Yes, I start over after after a few days. Avoid the bonemeal, it stunk my house up big time. It's the only organic that really has a funk to it. Most others you won't notice

I've googled around one time and there's an experienced grower called OldTimer1 (later made his own Plant Magic OldTimer fert line).

OT1'S schedule

right, no feed up until flower as you should be gradually re-potting therefore using the nutes in the medium

then when you go 12/12

start with 1ml grow & 1ml bloom p/l
wk 2- 1ml grow & 2ml bloomp/l
wk3- 1ml grow & 2ml bloom but add a one off feeding of epsom salts (1tsp for 10 litres)
wk4 1ml grow 3ml bloom

then when the pistils are about 50% red
go 2ml grow & 1ml bloom

I usually grow with Pro Mix Hp using Blue Planet Nutrients, but I recently switched to Roots Organic soil and they included their Roots Organic Buddha Grow and Buddha Bloom Nutrients. My question is, since I'm using the roots soil, would it be best to use their nutrients also, or can I continue with Blue Planet? I'm growing Purple Cheese and Hijack, both autos, in a 4x4 tent, under 400w hps. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks :bigjoint:
