Gravity Flower Hardener

[DR. VonDankenstine]

Thank you for the kind words---no rep is needed----would rather have people that I have helped just have more success than anything else, I'm here to learn new thing and share some knowledge. We're in this together so the more people we help the better of we all are. Best of luck with your grows brother.

thank you for the help i have the lights around 12" away from tops so i figured that would be enough. And the nutes that i mix with it are at 1/4 and i id start with 1ml to gal so i think thats pretty much what you said thanks for the info. I have a Lavender Kush that looks pretty promising and i heard the smoke is out of this world.

Please do one thing for the old DOC---put some 0ppm water in first and check you run-off-( the reason is that if your runoff is say 1000ppm and you hit it with 1/4 strength nutes--say 400ppm,----that's close to 1400ppm's and you will burn your plants when used with gravity---with the use of gravity at 1ml/gal and 1/4 nutes you will want your run-off to be under 900----and 750 is ideal) Use it 3 consecutive feeds---if you water every three days, it will take you 9 days to run the cycle. hope this helps. Make sure your 1/4 nute solution has a good dose of organic sugar or molasses in it as well---if you use mollassis it's 2 heavy tbls's/15 gallon.

If your lights have been 12" from the top under a flowering cycle for any amount of time and you use hps you will still need to move them 6 to 12" up---I recommend 12".

 

[MrHowardMarks]

You in a "check the runoff mood" today doc?

 

[DR. VonDankenstine]

Ya-----lol----lol----lol---I was up late the other night helping out a friend----we got relly high and I kinda had this vision about the earth and run-off and this and that---You'll prob see me on here all week boring the shit out of people-----"The run-off's are coming, The run-off's are coming"

 

[MrHowardMarks]

Hahahaaa, it's good to remind people of the basics. Most people asking questions don't have meters and will reply "what's runoff?"

 

[DR. VonDankenstine]

I wish they had cheap as hell disposable meters so everyone could have one----at least half of the problems posted on here would already be resolved.

 

[MrHowardMarks]

I agree.

The sunleaves are cheap as hell and "disposeable" but I'd rather have my bluelab.

 

[daddychrisg]

Whats up Lord D Bits? What us the results of the dose of Gravity so far?

 

[DR. VonDankenstine]

Testing update----The 1ml/gal with 1/4 strength nutes x 3watering worked out great--no burn at all--I will run a few more tests on other strains and see how things turn out---The thing that I can say is this---the buds didn't get bigger but they are definitely alot denser compared to the one's without gravity-Haven't been able to check weight yet---that's next.

 

[regrets]

Thanks for the update doc, keep 'em comin'.

 

[SouthernOregonOrganic]

Julian?

He's cool.

Julian is more than cool, he's basically the shit.

 

[SouthernOregonOrganic]

I used the recommended dosage of bushmaster fed it to 2 plants, now they dont have any fan leaves.

When i first read this line i cracked up for about 5 min straight

 

[MrHowardMarks]

Me too, and again just now

Don't blame the nutes, blame the gardener.

 

[anhedonia]

man you guys are some serous dip shits. I m starting to see alot of dumbasses on RIU. Do you even know what your talking about? You said you both laughed at that so maby you could both put some bushmaster on your cocks and fuck each other in the ass. Fucking stupid ass morons.

 

[FilthyFletch]

Gravity works well. I have been running it in hydro table for awhile now and it does make nice hard nugs. I find the buds stay smaller but much more dense. I also like adding Purple maxx and sweet.Get many stacked flower sites from the purple maxx and the gravity makes them rock hard

 

[Bagelthief]

so are BM, G, and PM organic or not? i need to know if i can use BM especially....

 

[DR. VonDankenstine]

I have found the purple max is 100% organic but still trying to find out about the bushmaster and gravity---I do know the bushmaster is a PGR but still waiting to hear what it is sourced from. The Bushmaster is very-very hot and you can fry your plants in a heart beat----if you do use it test it out at 1ml/gal at the flip of your light cycle on a few plants. Almost everyone I know has experienced burn and ram horning at doses at or above 4ml/gal--With the bushmaster you will only need to dose once at the light flip. I tried it @ 1ml/gal then flushed the medium 6 hours latter and had no burn. The instructions on there products advice to cut back nutes 1/3rd(700-900ppm) but that was to hot---I would suggest running your nutes at 1/4 strength(350-450)---The testing that I did was on a Island Sweet Skunk strain and the doses I gave did shorten the vertical growth. I have yet to compare the avg weight against a ISS that has no application of BM.

 

[Bagelthief]

sweet. you have good info man. what does PGR stand for? i think im definitely going to pick up the purple max, but ill wait to see whats up with the bushmaster. i have a grow where exactly half of my crop is grown strait organic (BMO), and the other half is getting a mixture of some chem nutes(FF) and some organic nutes. if i did get the bushM i would need to use it on all the plants, so it definitly needs to be Organic.
