Wonder how those would do in a SIP setup. Looks similar to Nectar's OneShot deal, might have to give it a try or at least use for mother plant maintenance, etc.

Me thinks that the time released properties of. The DOTS should not lend to a sustained grow, It is just my take I am intrigued by the nute process of G D

I used one 75gr. Bag for two buckets seven bucks on Amazon then just recharge , water every five days or so
I have a grow currently going using Grow Dots utilizing three 3gal fabric pots growing three Zkittlez autos. They say the nutes lasts 16 weeks, so I thought they’d work well with growing autos.
I layered in 90 grams of Dots alternating with Mosquito Bits. I’m growing in Bush Doctor coco mix and I’m doing what you guys spoke about…Recharge one watering then Tribus/FishSh!t the next with Power Si mixed in here & there…once they went to flower, I added Flower Fuel as well. So far, so good. Nothing dramatic as far as deficiencies go, just three healthy plants putting on bud weight. These were planted 12/7/2021. They’re kinda of a strange 420 Fast Buds strain thats
growing weird…but they’re growing.

I have two in three gal pots looking fat and healthy this could be a game changer seems too eazy to be true, Time will tell thanks for the post
I feel ya…I’m so used to mixing Jacks 3-2-1, silica, cal-mag, ph-ing, TDS/PPM-ing, etc (that I’m still using in another tent with Coast of Maine growing Mephisto Double Grape) and the ease of the Dots grow compared to the Jacks grow leaves me feeling guilty and lazy…lol. at the end I’m still going to go with the Winter Frost regimen and end it with Flawless Finish flush prior to harvest.
My next Dots grow will be three White Widow autos that I’ve grown a bunch of times. That’ll give me a better gauge of its performance since I’m used to getting 6-7 ounces per plant with them.

Don't make the mistake of "top dressing" with it. It must be mixed into the actual entirety of the pot for the best results. 1 tablespoon per/gallon of coco.. It's designed to supply more nitrogen for ~20 days then starts providing more phosphorus and potassium after that so plan accordingly..
1 24 oz bag should feed up to 10 x 5 gallon plants or so.. @ $50 that's $5 dollars per/plant roughly, not bad.. If you were able to stretch it out across 12 x 5 gallon plants that would be about $4.20 per/plant start to finish.
Just remember,
Don't top dress with it, it's better to be mixed into the coco/soilless media directly.
It's designed for a ~20 day vegetation period, so your going to get ~3 weeks (21 days) of veg time before you want to flip them into flower.
Do not add CalMag it releases calcium and magnesium through the entire grow cycle
Do not do any crazy "flushing" just water until a little water drips out the bottom

That being said you shouldn't need any calmag or other additives, maybe a bloom booster but I wouldn't try that until you've ran it by itself first, record results then maybe try adding in a PK booster or bloom stimulant mid/late bloom.

Grow dots are good. It’s different than anything else iv seen. I’m gonna try it for coco. Apparently cheating to the experts.
It’s a one shot deal and cannabis growers specific. Everyone I know that uses them has very nice grows with no Deficiency’s. All it is, times changing, and people are able to openly study and create different things involving cannabis nutrition. I approve

Scotty Real is all about the ganja and wouldn't sell something that is bunk. He's been a grower a really long time and knows his stuff and has lots of people backing him that know their stuff. Keep us updated! I ordered another pack so I can finish out my transplants, I ran 7 gallon pots so didn't have enough to mix all the pots properly.. lol not to mention I think 7 gallon is too big for only 3 weeks of veg in coco.

Yeah. I’m a patron on the side site. I get 30% off on all grow dots and recharge. Plus free seeds. That I prolly won’t sprout anytime soon because of current projects. And they’re mostly regs. But I trust grow dots as a single nute and no need for anything else other than water. Which I like the sound of. And for me tryin coco for the first time. I’m all for the “cheating” method for premium bud. Lol.
