Day 47

[ZuuTeD614]

Ok so Potash is Potassium and Phosphate is the Phosphorus?

 

[BenGman]

Yeah its in the big bloom but tiger bloom has more of it

 

[ZuuTeD614]

Not seeing cal though

Yes there is no Cal and another reason I just gave Calmag every other time. Just to give it some.

 

[ZuuTeD614]

Yeah its in the big bloom but tiger bloom has more of it

Cool thanks ks alot I just watered the other day, so I will let my pot get light and try again and will keep you all updated. And I can drop thr CalMag correct there should be enough calcium in my tap water to keep them happy?

 

[70's natureboy]

Most feed should have enough cal and mag, just feed them and don't worry about the cal and mag. They are a little hungry.

 

[ZuuTeD614]

And now tjat I'm in Flowering I can drop the Grow Big and just use the Tiger Bloom and big bloom correct? Or should I use a little of the grow big still as well?

Got it man yah I see the yellowing coming in, I just watered thr other day got to give her a few days to dry up the pot and I will up my doses a little more. Thanks for all the info!

 

[BenGman]

Yeah, it says to stop using it once flowers appear pretty much

[PadawanWarrior]

Could an excess of cal cause the pk prob?

Yes. Excess Ca and Mg can lock out K.

And ya. It looks like K deficiency.

 

[ZuuTeD614]

Yes. Excess Ca and Mg can lock out K.

And ya. It looks like K deficiency.

Ok, so how will I know if it's locked out? Thr nest time I feed if it don't get better?

 

[ZuuTeD614]

Yes. Excess Ca and Mg can lock out K.

And ya. It looks like K deficiency.

And if I just watered the other day would it hurt to mix some nutes up right now with the right amount of NPK or would I overwater her?

 

[PadawanWarrior]

Ok, so how will I know if it's locked out? Thr nest time I feed if it don't get better?

If it's excess Ca, it will just take time. But you could add some acid to break it's bonds a bit. I'm just talking a tiny bit. I use citric acid occasionally. Just like 1/16 tsp a gallon and it will drop my pH from 7.8 to around 6.7. Any chealating agent will help.

You could give it a little more K too.

Basically excess Ca makes it harder to access the K, so adding more K would help. But then you could give too much K and lockout Mg or whatever. So go easy.

It would be fine. As long as the roots have enough air it doesn't matter if the soil stays wet the whole time.

 

[ZuuTeD614]

Ok so maybe like 8ML of PK and she is a little lighter in the yellow side probably should add some Tiger Bloom as well and maybe just stick to 5 ML of that.

I don't use those FF bottled nutes. Tiger Bloom is basically just more P and K. It barely has any N.

 

[ZuuTeD614]

I use a little Boomerrang too. It has a low dose of N as well, but it says it helps stress levels and helps with salt build up.

 

[ZuuTeD614]

So should I use a little more of the Tiger Bloom than 5MLs? It stats 10-15ML and was told to use a quarter of what's recommended to avoid nute burn. So I though 5 ML was good. LOL

If it was me I'd just use Grow Big since you're using the FF line. But like I said I don't use that stuff, so I'm not the best one for this question.

I'd stop the Cal Mag and other extra shit too for awhile if it was me. If you're using tap water, you probably wont need CalMag.
