Nah, my last grow was with Miracle Gro :p

I have a question about that link I just sent you. The guy is using 2-1-2 or 3-1-3 during flowering. Does that mean I should use more of my EJ grow (nitrogen) than my EJ bloom (phosphorus) right now during flowering?

I guess it's dependent on the initial NPK of medium, does it hold any kind of fertilizer?

That formulation seems a little lite on the P though, especially through late transition and early flower .. . .when P requirements are through the roof . . .

I checked out the bag, it doesn't list out any NPK amounts or anything. It just says that it's 75-85% Canadian sphagnum peat moss, the rest being perlite, vermiculite, dolomic acid, and a few other minor ingredients.

I have some EJ Meta-K on the way as well if I need to boost K.

High P in early flower will only cause more stretch and help lockout essential micros... 3-1-2 is the best for container growing dirt, coco, promix... This ratio makes the plant grow a stronger structure in early flower when it is most important instead of just growing taller and taller.

Try it! Use a 3-1-3 or 3-1-2 mix. I tried it and found out that not one leaf turned yellow or dropped up until the day i chopped!

I don't know much about earth juice, I just use a complete one part nutrient with one additive for silicon - very simple and effective. Do you have a silicon additive? It makes the plant much stronger and more resistant to heat/humidity/pests/etc... I also use it as a PH up. the ratio on it is 0-0-3. I don't know if you have a lot of that earth juice stuff or are willing to switch but Dyna Gro Foliage Pro (9-3-6) and Dyna Gro Protekt (0-0-3) is cheap and simple.

Skip the bloom altogether? I may just add a little of it, to get that 1 part while doing 2 or 3 parts of grow and meta k. This is quite a bit different than how things were being done so we'll see how it goes.

I'll have an update tonight on the plants, 48 hours since their last watering. The last watering (before any advice on any forums) was a much larger dose of grow, microblast, and bloom.

Well, the last watering didn't see to help. :/

Time for a flush and getting on the 4:1 grow/meta-k schedule.

Good luck Enoch. The yellowing probably won't go away at this point but will slow and allow your buds to grow. Love the name, btw
