and me A+B is all i use and does me fine

oops.. double post!

Using General Hydroponic Flora Series nutrients right here in regular ol' city tap water(120-140ppm, 6.5-6.7pH) mixed right away without sitting overnight and straight into the reservoir. However it is to be noted that I do use GH FloraKleen(5ml/gal) in between rez changes which occur every other week for me. I top off with filtered tap water and the occasional 1ml squirt of pH down in the meantime to keep levels in check.


Recommended pH, Nutrient, and Temperature Levels


pH levels:

Rockwool - 5.6 to 5.8
Coir - 5.8 to 6.0
Hydrotron - 5.8 to 6.2

Anything lower than 5.6 results in nutrient lock-out in any medium.


Reservoir temperature:

68 degrees Fahrenheit (given a 72 to 78 degree lights-on room temp and a 65 degree lights-off temp)


Nutrient levels:

Note: Amounts will vary according to what stage in the cycle you happen to be at.

Clones - 200-400ppm AFTER roots appear (nothing before that)
Veggie - 800ppm, although can go aggressive and boost to 900ppm once the plant is well established.
Bloom - 1000ppm for the first couple weeks, then boost up to 1200ppm for almost any strain.



Mixture Ratios for General Hydroponics Flora Series Nutrients


Note: Amounts listed are per gallon and should be mixed in the orders given.

Clones and Seedlings - 2.5ml/gal of Micro, Gro, and Bloom

Vegetative - 5ml/gal Micro, 10ml/gal Gro, and 5ml/gal Bloom

Early Flowering - 7.5ml/gal Micro, 7.5ml/gal Gro, and 10-12.5ml/gal Bloom

Peak Flowering - 10ml/gal Micro, 5ml/gal Gro, and 15ml/gal Bloom.

Flush - 2.5ml/gal of Micro, Gro, and Bloom for 3 days, then plain RO or de-chlorinated water with 1 tsp/gal (2.5ml) of molasses.

I could use someone's customized Humboldt Nutrients Master A&B feeding schedule if they'd be inclined to share it here. Recently scored a full two gallon set of the stuff on CL for forty bucks!

for vegging i use DutchMasters Gold A+B

for flower,i use FloraDuo A+B and change the mixes
depending on what week of flower i am in.

other nutes i use are:

Silica Blast

Liquid Carboload

Bud Igniter

Hygrozyme

Superthrive

liquid karma

Chaching -the last 2 weeks of feeding before the flushing phase.

cal/mag

hydroplex

tarantula

root 66

and roots organic humic acids

i have dutch master liquid light and penetrator

other then that i just have samples of other stuff that i dont use..

How is the dutch master working for you? And if u don't mind me asking, why don't u use DM bloom?

The simplest nutes are the GH DUO A/b.... Ive had great success for the last 3 harvest averaging almost 2oz. per plant on a 12 plant setup.

This sounds a lot like how i used to feed my plants, i used a very complex feeding schedule trying to make sure they had every possible element they could even need. Over the years i've learned that most nute companies want you to feed your plants more then they will need and most of the additives aren't needed at all. So many of these additives are just marketing gimmicks that won't really help you at all if you're already using a good feeding schedule. I personally like General Hydroponics nutes, which is what i currently use but i don't even buy into all of their additives...

With your Fox Farm you can probably stop using almost all of the other additives and see no difference in your yield or quality.


Try using the following list and nothing else and see what happens...

Big Bloom schedule

Grow Big Hydro schedule

Tiger Bloom schedule

Cha Ching schedule

the dutch master works great for me,im not too sure why i dont use it in flower..

in vegging all my plants stay green(2 month veg),i even have a 5ft mother that is still green and bushy after about 4 months now,i take clones from her.

also have a short indica at about 3 1/2 foot same age doing well with just DM A+B
