I want to run 3 plants a month. I have a seperate clone room and veg room but only one ebb and flow set up for flower. The flower table would have 3 plants starting flower and 3 one month in(8 week strains). My question is how can I feed them correctly if they are a month apart in age and in the same flood tray?. Just use a general flower solution that covers it all and forget the enhancers?
can u grow perpetual with ebb and flow?

I run Lucas Formula in a perpetual flower AeroFlo36 set-up, with no problems.

it will work as you say with no enhancers but dang you will totally loose out on potency and density..

I beg to differ. My product gets top Top Shelf prices at the local dispensary.

yes i noticed a difference, so what i did is set up kinda like you said and got a smaller table for the boost phaze.. but that might be hard if your crambed for space..
and yes they make 3x3 flood and drain tables..

im not saying it wont be good without.. but its deff beter with the bud blasters..
as far as your top shelp prices heck man where i live there are some snob ass smokers around.. it has to be real good to make it to the top shelf.. props to you on that that..
my friend is a commercial grower and he doesnt use any enhancers same strain same nutes as me but local club will take mine over his any day of the week 4k a lb for mine or 3600 for his.. that is the difference i seen

I run 4 ebb and flow trays (homeade for $65ea including hydroton,pumps,timer ect..) that are about 36"x24", in my flower room. I run 2 sets, 4 wks apart. Even tho i quit using enhancers, I'm fairly certain I would lose a lot of yield and quality if I didnt up the ppms a tad as they got bigger. Week1 of flower is usually 350ppm, while week 6 hits about 850. Im thinking that trying to get a one size fits all nutes may work, but youd miss out on the very reason we grow hydroponically. You know, to get the most out of your gals. Besides, why starve your huge buds, or risk burnin' your young? Maybe its even simpler than that tho.
I do a perpetual grow for my mothers of random strain, in a smaller cabinet. Now, those ladies get the same solution forever! I have it set at about 120ppms, and under 100w hps, they love it. Biggest worry is that if you get enough nutes to sustain any serious fast growth, you may burn young things. Probably depends a lot on your lighting and growth rate too. Bast of luck to ya
