Ive been reading the SB thread for a while....and ive enjoyed watching your grows taking shape...and your new rooms too guys....maybe I missed it AK....are you using the same nutes as SB or something else...maybe I smoked too much and missed it buddy...lol
Hey bro. Sorry for the late reply! Been hella busy moving into the new room.
To answer you Q, I started with my the original SB recipe but I have tweaked it a bit. I noticed some issues with my plants while running the OG formula, so I slightly adjusted it and my girls are very happy with it.
Veg -
750ml Pure Blend Pro Grow, 250ml Cal-Mag, 175ml Humic Acid (Liquid Karma). Mixed up in a gallon jug. As for feeding, I fill my res to about 2 inches below the top which I estimate at around 25 gallons (larger res' are way easier to manage temps, nute and PH levels. I start by adding 2ml/gal of Hydro Guard to keep my root healthy, then I add 2ml per gallon of Silica Blast with thickens up my stocks real nice. Once Ive put the above mentioned additives in the res I start adding the base mixture util I get to around 1000 ppm (on the 700 scale). After that I PH to 5.8 and they are good to go.
Flower -
750ml Pure Blend Pro Bloom, 250ml Cal-Mag, 175ml Humic Acid (Liquid Karma), and 250ml of Sweet. Mixed up in a gallon jug. As for feeding, I fill my res to about 2 inches below the top which I estimate at around 25 gallons. I start by adding 2ml/gal of Hydro Guard, then I add 4ml/gal of Silica Blast (double what goes in veg). Once Ive put the above mentioned additives in the res I start adding the base mixture util I get to around 1200 ppm. After that I PH to 5.8 and they are good to go. I lower the nute level to around 1000 ppm around the beginning of week 3. Then at week 5 I go down to 800 ppm. Week 7 I lower them to 600 ppm. Beginning of week 8 I run 450 ml of sweet only for 3 days. the last 3 to 4 days I run Botanicare's recommended amount of Clearex, then I chop the bitches down. Boom!!! Dont forget to always ph to 5.8 even if your using clearex.
