the recipe is a good starting point for just about anyone. When you're comfortable using it you can start making your own recipe's or move on to the pricier nutrients with a little more confidence

yeah just use top booster for one week. It supposedly will begin the flowering sooner and thats basically all it does, so thats why its not needed for more than 3-4 days in the 5th week of flowering

I also Use Airpots. I just find that there is no need for as much water as when I was using HPS. Theres a line between how much water the plant actually uses, and how much gets evaporated. In my small grows I notice these things based on how often I've had to go to the water store to get RO...

I'm getting good results so far, it's just a matter of using a good quality light, making sure your wattage is not right for the space/number of plants growing, and tweaking certain things in your grow. For example, when using a soilless mix I found that a lighter mix is needed because LED's...

I like the format better but its all metric, and the smallest reservoir size is 50L, which is 13 US gallons. I use a small 5gal bucket as a res So I'd be doing math to calculate my nutes anyway which would make using the calculator pointless. So I either use the one on the US site, or...

Right on. I'll do the same and maybe with enough encouragement we can have a better nutrient calculator

I think that humboldt wholesale is in charge of the website, aka the nutrient calculator, so thats why the different countries have different versions.

The ph up and down is one of the european products, like bactoforce and the magnesium supplement. Eventually it might come to the US

regardless of knowing or not, that would be a lot of PK to give the plants at once. I'd be willing to substitute bloombastic for shooting powder though, just to try another late flowering booster

What about a patient like me who has had my license suspended because of my medical condition? Regardless of a 5 mile or 25 mile rule, it still makes access to a dispensary extremely difficult for me. And I sure as hell dont want to pay a caregiver to grow for me when I can do it myself. There...

you don't need too many nutes in your regimen, I like house & garden because they're not trying to sell you a million things. You have base nutes, roots, amino, algen, multizyme, top booster, bud xl, and shooting powder. For me its an easy way to grow and it provides results

My tent is 5'11" but once you add in the height of pots or the hydroponic system it goes down at least a foot. Then The lights need to hang a little from the top to vent the hot air out of the led unit, so that takes some more vertical space. I don't grow monster plants either, but having more...

Right on man, it takes a big man to admit he was wrong:) I bought a pretty nice hanna combo ph/EC/ppm/temp meter and its the one investment that will transfer to any type of grow I do. One thing I was reading is that the higher quality meters keep their calibration longer than the inexpensive...

I don't have any experience with blackstar, but I have a relatively small tent and even growing 2 - 3 plants in there is a problem. Everything gets tangled and theres no room to work. A better size tent would be a 3x3 or 4x4, you can hang the lights to cover just the plants, and it provides...

arent bloombastic and top booster different types of products? Top booster is supposed to trigger the flowering cycle while bloombastic is a late cycle enhancer similar to shooting powder

I just started the last few weeks with shooting powder and my ppms are back up to the 1700+ range. I would think most nute lines would severely burn plants at those levels but I get good results and am loving the shooting powder

Goddamn! Thats 1000ppms more. I thought about doing the aggressive feed but figured the plants grow so well on the normal plan so why change it. That is pretty impressive the plants can take the aggressive feed though, maybe they build up a tolerance for it over time then eventually it gets to...

I use T5HO units as side lighting on led grows. They do penetrate well, are pretty medium heat and work great. I can only assume they work better than a cfl since i've never grown with cfl's. Just remember, with any light there will be heat and without proper ventilation that heat will become...

LEDs are probably not the best option when you dont have a lot of money. A good quality panel is essential to ensure you don't end up being another LED hater and they just dont come cheap. Save a little money and you'll have a much better experience with LED's. This is just my opinion, of...

I was just wondering how high your ppms get with the aggressive feed, I've gotten all the way to 1750 following the regular chart and i'd be surprised if my plants were able to survive any more nutes
