Just wanted to get a opinion on the lucas formula and see how many people actually use it. I personally have been using it for the last year and a half, maybe longer and have had great results. How many people out there are using it or have used it. And if you have and moved onto somthing else... why? Smoke on fellow RIU'rs

I use it for bloom. Have used it for about two years. Very good results. Now I have a recipe for it and I make it myself only costs about five dollars per gallon.

Ran Gh 3-part for a long time, then switched to lucas formula for a few runs. Found myself having to supplement with cal/mag. It worked fine for me, but I wasn't impressed. Either I have to buy a gallon of cal/mag or a gallon of grow. So, I didn't see any savings in cost. I have since gone back to the using all 3-parts, for me it works better.

I ran it and never had cal/mag issues. I have noticed others say that but GH Bloom has one of the highest amount of soluble Mg in the indusry, 1 1/2%. Thats the main reason to double up on it instead of the 1 part Grow. Grow has 1/2%. Maybe it's more strain related.

Good to see we have some people who know what there talking about And honestly if you read some of "lucas's" threads he has alot of time and thought into the whole lucas formula. maybe it's time to gather all the material into one
