as far as the RO system, im still not convinced i need one. we use it at some grows and personally haven't seen enough of a difference.i could just be getting lucky... as far as burn goes, well i see your point, so my only real option is to start low and hope i can read the plant well enough to make the adjustments on the fly. i was just trying to get some input as to what ratios you have had some luck with in dirt. i have used promix quite a bit in the past with good results too, however that was with a bunch of AN nutes. this room is kind of a side-project so doesnt need to be a homerun. just looking for a decent harvest with out brain-f*cking myself over the nutes. like i said the room is solid. temps hang around 72-76 at 50%. and i have some very nice kush strains.. HB i have read a lot of your posts and i like your philosophy. so im interested in your advice especially since you have had experience with dyna AN and gh. do you still like Dyna over everythig else? or should i look into some of the cheap powder ferts?

I would either go 100% organic or 100% synthetic. If you really want to use bat guano and other poop related fertilizers in your soil mix then your looking to go organic and you should use poop derived fertilizers to supplement the soil throughout the remainder of the grow. Why not just make super soil and be done with it?

If you want to go synthetic, leave to crap out of your soil and go with synthetic

supersoil sounds like a great idea. i'll probably go that route on another room where i have a helper and some time to prep it. initially i was going to stick with an organic program on this particular room however my work load has tripled recently. so i really don't have the time to brew teas and i may be away from the site for a few days at a time, hence the need for an "easy" feed program. from what little i can find on dyna it sounds pretty solid and im sure i can figure out a good ratio. this was just about asking a few of you who have grown in soil, with the product line, which ratios you used and liked.

Does Dyna-Gro nutes work good in Coco? also at what ML per gallon would be good to start clones in? is Dyna-gro veg nutes needed in flowering with there bloom nutes ? if so at what ratio?

From what the jug of Dyna-Gro says it sounds like their product is for just about any application from soil to hydroponics. It doesn't specifically state coco, but from all the potential applications described I'd be surprised if you didn't get excellent results there as well. And I'm sure that like all other nute applications it's always a good idea to go with about 50/50 grow/bloom until the last 2 weeks of flowering. We don't hear this often or enough but buds form more thickly and develop better overall if sufficient levels of Nitrogen are supplied through at least the first half of the blooming stage. I keep reading very good things about the results with Dyna-Gro apart from Mr. Homebrewer's recomendations.

To add to what Jar Man has stated, I start seeds off with 2.5ml/gal of Protekt and 1.5ml/gal of Grow or Foliage Pro.

Thanks for explaining the nitrogen, I had suspected that aleady but it's good to confirm
I'll be aiming for an NPK of 4-7-7 during weeks 4-9 of flower and finishing until week 12 with straight Dyna-gro bloom(3-12-6)(with a week of flush)

How are you achieving this NPK value?

That NPK breakdown is similar to floranova and maxibloom. Mandala seeds likes these numbers. http://www.mandalaseeds.com/Guides/Fertilizing-Smart-Guide


GENERAL HYDROPONICS FloraNova Bloom (Soil/Hydroponics)
This is what we have been waiting for since a looong time! Finally, a well-balanced NPK ratio of 4-8-7 that is perfectly suited for cannabis during all stages of flowering, and also for topping up nutrients before or during sexing in soil. We tested the new product outdoor and found it to be an excellent fertilizer which is "soft" on the plants. Nutrient uptake is very easy and effective and holds up to the optimum nutrient absorption as advertised by GH.

The price-quality ratio is equally impressive. This fertilizer is highly concentrated and only a small dosage is needed for soil cultivation. We used just one bottlecap per 6-7 Liters of water to feed potted plants and plants in the ground. This potency makes it an attractive choice for cost-intensive hydroponic cultivation too. Certainly the NPK ratio of FloraNova Bloom is a clear improvement to the 3-part Flora Series from GH. FloraNova Bloom is based on mineral and organic sources but looks and smells like a rich organic fertilizer. The bottle needs to be shaken well to mix the contents properly before each use.

Right, but he's using H&G and I believe he said he's planning on mixing DG in there to achieve that ratio. I'm wondering how he's getting to that NPK value.

I've multiplied rounded divided rounded averaged and added the numbers many times over so I may be a bit off and 4-7-7 is not the exact ratio I will end up with, but it's close to what I will get

I will see if my limited math skills can demonstrate how this works...

3-12-6 X 1.5 = 4.5-18-9

11-7-18 + 4.5-18-9= 15.5-25-27

15.5-25-27/3.875= 4-6.45-6.96

So by adding 2 parts H&G and 3 parts Dyna-Gro Bloom I will get an NPK of 4-6.45-6.96

homebrewer how far do u keep ur lights from the top of ur plants? just curios thanks man

I hang them as close as I can without bleaching the leaves, basically around 5000 foot candles at the canopy. Mine happen to be around 18-24 inches but YMMV.

Thanks, I'd bet that ratio would work well.
