Light: 600w HPS
PPM: Max of 5-600ppm using a Hanna ph/ppm pen

The ppm's changed throughout the grow, as I adjusted them based on the response I got from the plants. I started off with 1ml of foilage pro per gallon of water during the seedling stage, and worked them up to about 4ml per gallon in flower. These are grown in 2.5 gal fabric pots, and they ended up being a little over 2 feet tall after being topped, and flipped to 12/12 after a 5 week veg period from seed.

I think it's important to dispel as much stoner myth as possible about growing, and dudes like HB, and these kind of threads, saved me time and money over the years by demonstrating that you don't need 9 bottles of shit to grow some good stash for yourself.

I smoke a bowl at every harvest for all the growers in the community that challenge and fight all the marketing bullshit and ignorance that exists about weed growing. While they seem outnumbered by shills and idiots, there truly are a small cadre of growers that know their shit, and are not only willing to share it, but demonstrate it as well.

I personally don't care how people spend their money but it does irk me when people think their 'premium' plant food grows better herb. I've even heard that nonsense at the hydro store. Don't get me wrong, the plant food matters, it's the brand that doesn't.

I agree with you Uncle Rico. When you spend a ton of money on nutrients you are just paying for the brand name. Hell if you wanted to you could use the raw salts and do it yourself. When it comes down to it they're all nutrients. I really do like the complete formula of Foliage Pro. I don't care for the bloom so much the high phosphorus seems to always burn my plants and cause lockouts. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us. You are a legend on this forum as far as I am concerned.

Picture of health right there! And that's the goal. In my experience, healthy plants at harvest equals better yields and superior smoke.

holy crap...3 days reading 104 pages top to bottom...1st of all thank you homebrewer your info is very appreciated, as is all of you guys posts, ty. That being said what brought me here was 2 fold. The hate of many bottles to feed my plants and the constant yellowing of my plants leaves in flower. I will now be trying foliage pro and protekt in promix all the way through! Love the idea of 2-3 bottles max! Awesome thread.
