Soil,Plagron,homebase,john innes,flowering

Hi there ive recently done a grow indoors in secret jardin tent ,250 blue cfl for veg and 400w dual spectrum bulb for flower,

i used plagron light mix all the way through the grow and it produced perfect results up to 2 weeks into flower,then i ran into all kinds of problems either nuted them too much or not enough ,

i use ionic grow,bloom,boost , and greenfuse grow,bloom,root organic stimulators alongside that,

i had a perfect veg process using light mix and ionic grow,greenfuse grow,
i got to 11 litre pots and they were monsters ,i switched lights and nutes and everything seemed fine until 3rd week of flowering i got like rusty crap all over fan leaves looked like magnesium ,and p and k defiencies ,i couldnt fix the situation ,started losing leaves from plants,im sure ive cut a yield ,this is my 2nd grow so far and has went almost tits up,my first grow i used homebase multipurpose and got 2 ounce a plant with not one yellow leave ,so my questions are should i use plagron batmix in flower ,or something complete differant,i would like some help as im doing another 4 and would like to see a good grow this time ,any help would be very appreciated man thanks .

It's whatever works best for you bro.

I use COCO with CANNA AQUA VEGA nutes, CANNA MONO Ca, CANNA MONO Mg, CANNA PK13/14 and CANNA RHIZOTONIC.

I have green plants right up until harvest.

IONIC nutes are basic and work better if you just use GROW and BOOST.

funny you should say that last night i was looking at my ionic bottles for the npk numbers i now know a little more about,The Ionics Grow has an NPK of 2.2:1.4:2.6 and the Ionic Bloom is 1.4:1.4:2.6,it seems to me that there is only a higher nitrogen in the grow than in the bloom ,i understand i should use Ionic Pk Boost when flowers show and the NPK of that has 0:14.0:15.0 no N but plenty P and K I also understand plants need more P and K during flowering so ye,what i cant understand is where i went wrong 3 weeks into flowering ,this is my first real grow attempt and yes i want to use what works best for me as i said i did 6 chronics with homebase multi purpose very first grow and not a thing went wrong,this is my second grow and the vegging went better than perfect using plagron light mix and feeding Ionic grow and greenfuse organic grow stimulator,they vegged in 11 litre pots for 6 weeks and were 18 inches when i flipped them to flower however i did not repot with fresh soil and i wonder if this has been my problem,i switched to flower and fed them just water for 1 week which i think was stupid ,then i gave them full strength ionic bloom the next week and again the week later which probably was even more stupid but i did it because i was getting what i now think were bad pottasium defiencys on all big fan leaves at an alarming rate so this is why i went in with the nutes and i think i done more bad than good,i should have gave normal doses and introduced just the pk boost with bloom feed i really dont know , ok enough my questions are this to help my 3rd grow should i stick with plagron light mix and then repot a week before flip to batmix or should i not use batmix as i hear good/bad about it
or should i get homebase multipurpose soil and feed that ionics,i dont mind paying for quality

question 2.i still want to use my ionic feeds and stimulators ,do i use the feed mixed with water everytime i give them a drink or do i use feed one week and just water the next ?? (when i was vegging i mixed feed everytime i watered)

basically dont want to mess up another perfect grow on 3 into flowering,the strain im using is super cheese and im now 6 weeks into flower on them dont know how much more to leave them theyre an 6-8week flower strain theyre now 6 weeks exactly into flower im seeing bud hairs going orangey brown too so i think ill get something from them even if they look like shit and im just feeding water now is that good ? ? .

thanks for any and all helps

IMO you switched to bloom nutes too early.

I would do the next grow just using IONIC GROW the whole way through. With the BOOST during flowering.

Transplanting would have helped from 11L into at least 18L.

Feed every other.

As in feed then water then feed then water.

So that you are feeding every other time that you water them.

thanks for the replys man ,next time ill repot a week before the switch into fresh soil ,and ill use grow feed only and see how it goes ,
should i just continue as before the way i vegged as it worked well i mean i was giving them nutes each time at about half strentgh at the most every feed or should i still water feed water in veg too ? ,and is plagron batmix a good soil to pot up to from light mix does anyone know i want to try and avoid any flower problems next time should i get a bottle of plant magic magna cal plus as well as some people claimed i have a mag defiency and some others said salt build up and some other wanted to beat the shit out of me lol haha learning costly but enjoying the mistakes in a way :0
