i've been using vegamatrix, and don't have anything really bad to say about it besides the price. i was reading a few threads and have been trying Jack's dry fertilizer, the citrus blend for veg, and the bloom booster for flower, with calcium nitrate and a little epsom salt. the plants like it, and it cost about 20% of what the old nutes were costing me.
Thanks for the input on the ferts, after extremly close inspection i think you are 100% accurate on the beginnings of the PM, i did some pretty good research on battles for this and best results i found were mixing a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar into 32oz spray bottle and misting plants 3 times a week to cure this problem, I noticed you mentioned hydrogen peroxide whats the ratio's you use in mixing for the PM?

once should get rid of most of it. again when you see more. the underlying problem is still there though, you have to figure out why you're getting it to begin with. you have to keep your grow area clean, wipe down the walls and floor, even the ceiling, with bleach water. where does the air in your garden come from? is it pulling out of a damp basement? you need a hygrometer if you don't have one, its important to know the RH in your garden, and provide good ventilation.

I am in my 4th week of flowering and im starting to see alot of burt tips on my leaves, I am guessing it may be from chlorine in tap water not evaporating off enough before i use it. I have started with pure spring water 2 days ago. any thoughts?
I've usually treated that by boosting the potassium side of my nutrients.

With that said, they do look WELL fed from the standpoint of nitrogen and all other micros/macros.

IF you're on a 3 part, I'd pull back a little on the micro and boost the bloom a bit.

Currently using Tiger Bloom every third watering 2tsp per gallon of water started that a couple weeks ago and have been thinking of upping it to 2 feedings straight water (she gets watered every 2nd day 1 gal, usually have about half a quart of runoff
