Prevent pythium

currently:

Indoor:
AN Sensi Grow A&B
AN Connoisseur Bloom A&B
AN Bud Ignitor, Bud Factor X, Big Bud & Overdrive
AN Tarantula & Voodoo

Pro-Silicate, for silica and PH adjustments

Hearty B's

Cannazym

white vinegar for PH adjustments

Flood and Drain w/ Grow Stone medium

400 - 1000w bulbs of MH &/or HPS

Run base nutrients @ ~300ppm, try and aim for 6.0 PH as my current strains seem to develop mag def or lock up at <6.0ph

Outdoors:
Coco, Perlite, Vermiculite, Grow Stone (small), HP Pro mix Michorizae (sp?

home brewed organic tea's

I will be swapping out the AN products for Innovating Plant Products as they run out.

At some point I will be switched to COB led lighting.

When my situation allows I will buy bulk and mix my own hydro nutrients.

un instigated opinions:

Big Bud and X-Factor do nothing noticeable. Ignitor and Overdrive do what they claim.

Hearty B's is amazing for cuttings and shock. Only need a few drops/L.


***edit:

cuttings; DIY aeroponics with 2.5ml Hearty B's / 10L water, 6.0 ph, 10 day roots @ 100% success

Seeds; Large oil catch pan, plain water @ 6.0ph, rock wool plugs, air stone (DWC style)

In Vancouver I use Veg+Bloom


Vancouver USA

They all do the same thing for base nutrients and for additives, well it depends on how much bs the manufacturer can sell you on.

Soilless mix (custom blend)
MH's for veg
Warm MH's for flower
Low ppm Veg nutes (salt based) 20-10-20
Low ppm Flower nutes (salt based) 15-15-30
H2o

shock is just Chlorine..."bleach" in a concentrated form
Our water has Chlorine in it already.

Water less often, with a lesser amount of water, to get rid or phythium.
You can treat it once with Peroxide but I wouldn't( sterilizes it.)

Composted alfalfa and minerals with peat and perlite. Keeps things simple and cheap with water only from start to finish.

quite a popular regime actually

GH Maxi Gro ,Bloom and Koolbloom.
Soon to be switching to Jacks Citrus + Cal Sulfate + Epson and Aquagold for Flower.

Saves tons of money. Elements are elements, organic and non organic are not separate. Calcium is Calcium no matter how you use it.
