Need help guys.. just started a grow with 3 LSD and 1 white widow.. using a 600w led and medium is coco coir... I received vitalink A+B with my package and I'm really confused as the bottles say it's good for the whole grow but others on other sites have been saying I need buddy and bloom talking alot about PK etc etc... also how often should I feed nutes?? I'm currently slowly introducing them now at 1/3 strength and only giving 250ml each plant.. daily with more with growth... anyone help me simplify this????

Vitalink have a nute called buddy or bloom think someone mentioned about using 1 of them but there seems to be loads of vitalink products out there lol..
Product Description
VitaLink Buddy is a PK additive rich in potassium and phosphorus with added Magnesium and Sulphur to support the extra K and P which primarily supports the quality of the plant but also encourages maximum yield from plants i.e. growing bigger buds, producing more fruit and flowers. During the flowering process, an increase in the potassium to nitrogen ratio speeds up the reproductive processes and encourages plants to use more energy on their flowers or fruits leading to an increased yield. Extensive scientific trials have proven VitaLink Buddy to enhance the size and quality of flowers. Buddy is available to buy in 250ml, 1l and 5l. Dosage: 1ml/1L Tip: if you want to use PK to give the plant a larger dose of the nutrients it needs during peak flowering demands, you can use our new PK product in weeks 5 or 6. After using PK for a week, change back to buddy to use up until the 8th week of flowering.

So I can go A+B throughout cycle and then introduce buddy during flower... I have calmag and ph up is there anything else needed nute wise??

Yes A+B and calmag all the way from Veg to flower and simply add PK in flower, if you have ph up you would need down too, I personally never bother with pH but I have soft 20PPM tap water

Ok stop.

what light have you got?

because notoriously blurple lights are usually under powered.

what is the actual wattage of your lights on the specs panel etc?

600w Led

No I mean the actual specs of it.

I haven’t seen blurple light draw what it CLAIMS to be.

look for a white sticker on the side where is says all the specs and take a pic.

the reason I’m asking is most 600w LED lights that are blurple are usually equivalent wattage to 600w. Normally Around 150w.

150w of blurple LED is about enough to grow 1 plant.

Please I beg you go and take a pic of the side panel of your grow light.

we need to see the actual wattage.

ive Found the eBay listing but it says NOTHING about the actual light.
Which leads me to believe it’s not enough wattage for those amount of plants.

Unfortunately you’ve fell prey to the “older” style LED sales pitch.

It WILL NOT give you the same lumen output as a 600w HPS that’s just sales hype.

that light in the picture will be good to grow those plants for approx 4 more weeks maybe 6.

then when it comes time to flower the plants you’ll be seriously under powered for full fruition.

Sorry tell a lie it’s got 3w LED DIODES.

60 of them. So that’s a grand total of 180w of LED power.

enough for approx 2ftx2ft floor space with around 2ft tall plants.

what are you Hoping to achieve here?

3oz per plant?

1oz per plant?
