G.h. Nutes are Amazing

[My420]

Idk man sounds like you had different shit going on every grow so that's no GH kool bloom vs A.N's Overdrive experiment..thanks for you "advice" though, i'd love to see some of you pictures..o yea and hey you should read U-B's thread about the abuse of phosphorus

do you have a link to that by chance? U-B's thread about the abuse of phosphorus... and Yes I do try a lot every grow but only from people who show me results because there is a lot of talk but no proof a lot of times. Being open minded has increased my yields 110% from last year and I have only changed these things.
I do not top anymore in veg i only top the buds about 3 weeks in.
I make sure to prune by end of week 2 at latest.
Foliar feed every day. ( i see more results from this then other stuff )
I watch my PPM and PH very closely
Instead of letting them grow up I am weaving them in a net to get better canopy penetration ( as research shows canopy penetration determines yield ) So not much of any shade bud anymore all tops all get light ( this has increased yields the most I believe )
Changed my boosters
Here is my full line

Veg=
3 part GH Micro, Grow, Bloom

Foliar feed=
all through veg and 1 week into flower is
per gallon
1 and 1/2 tsp wet betty
1 and 1/2 tsp nitrozyme
1/4 tsp superthrive
ph to 5.7
week 2-3 foliar feed per gallon
Switch out the nitrozyme for Hydroplex and use 1 Tsp
week 4 ( which I am in now )
Add 1/2 tsp per gallon purple Max ( unfortunately you have to dump what you dont use because this stuff when mixed with other additives will smell like piss after 2 days or so. SO what I do is mix a gallon then put 1/2 into another container then add 1/4 tsp purple max and when done clean sprayer and I have the other 1/2 Gallon for the next day.

Feeding
Micro Grow Bloom to about 550 ppm to start week 1 ( after I ppm with Cal/Mag to 100 ppm but my water starts at 20ppm from my revers osmosis )
up it to about 650 - 700 for week 2

Flowering Feeding
first 2 weeks Micro Grow Bloom same with Cal/Mag to start at 100 ppm then up ppm to about 900 with nutes
3rd week add liquid koolbloom
4th week add powder koolbloom on top of above measurements ppm to about 1700-1850 at this point.
5th week cut out Grow nutes ( that starts Saturday )
and I will have some good pictures today in about 3 more hours of how they are looking 4 and 1/2 weeks in.

If it works it works.

 

[My420]

Works for now until I find a better way!!!

 

[Tamorin]

I forgot to mention i do ten week strains, ill post up something next week end.

 

[Tamorin]

As a follow up we ended up with 7 lbs on 3000 watts hps and a 252 watt fluorescent . This was 10 week strain with c02 in 5 gallon pots, on 10 plants. Flora series recirculating schedule and no dry cool bloom till week 10. Maybe ill add the dry week 7 see what happens next round,

 

[matatan]

i just follow the feeding schedule
http://www.generalhydroponics.com/calculator/index.html
and add fresh water to lower ppm IF its to high. works very well for me so far

 

[BeaverHuntr]

I started adding the Powder Kool Bloom ripening booster @ week 5, I still use the Liquid Kool Bloom too.

 

[Huel Perkins]

I've been using GH in my DWC system for about a year now with great results. I follow the "keep it simple" recirculating schedule using every product in it. I also add Superthrive, AN Rhino Skin for silica, GH Flora Nectar and foliar feed with Purple Maxxx.

I've never used the powder form Kool bloom but after reading this thread I'm considering trying it out late in flower.

Do you guys add the micro first ?? I now add the micro first , bloom , then gro.

No its Micro>Grow>Bloom

I don't use dry kool bloom either, you need like a fucking drill with a paint stir bit to get that shit mixed right. Here's how GH be treating my buds week 3. Flora Series, on the Bloom phase. I like to keep the N to prevent any yellowing until about week6 when I switch to Aggressive Bloom, I also don't use the Floracious Plus, shit gave me root rot before, or at least I suspect it was the FP. I just don't fuck with it.

Really? I just dumped it in my buckets with a measuring spoon of course. I rock mass air in my buckets like 3 air stones per bucket so I'm pretty confident that its getting mixed up in the buckets they have waves in them from the air I push. Are you sure floralicious gave you root rot? I know its dark and stain my roots but It never gave me root rot.

I'm sure about the micro>grow>bloom, the floralicious I'm not sure if that was the culprit to the root rot, all I know is couple days after I started using it I got rot. This run haven't used it and my roots are good. This run I also use h202 in my res as well, not sure if thats making the difference or not? Which is better floranova or flora series? And does anyone know the difference? Looks like its a all in one bottle system? Is price difference? I suppose I could google it lol.

Yeah I know to add the micro first. I grow DWC with 5 gallon sport coolers so my water temps are always 63-68 degrees so I really dont have to use bennies or H202. Flora Nova is the newer and better of the two products I dont know the difference I never used the Nova series.

 

[DCgrow505]

yeah i have just made the switch over to and man my veg grew a foot in a week it some killer stuff i love the stuff

The Floranova is organic and the Flora series is just the regular stuff. Floranova is thick and .....thick. I aint using that never no more again!

I have this run added a few small things and I am fuggin amazed.

mirco
bloom
liquid KB wk 1-8 powder KB 5-8
superthrive -new addition
H202 - new addition

I start them in the GH rain forest when my garden is at 7 wks (cut a week off the cycle since its only transition week) then after harvest move them to the GH aeroflo. Also I upgraded my reflector to the.... BIG KAHUNA.... that thing is HUGE not exact but its like 28x33 covers my entire 18 site aeroflo and you can put it like 5 inches above the canopy with no heat issue. It cost me 225 shipped but it was well worth it. After this run I am going to put my co2 back online now that I have made some improvements. I am running kushberry and they are known for light yeilds, I only averaged before like 14g per 1 week vegged clone on the little easy cool 6 refletor and with the light being about 14in above the canopy due to heat issues. I am now vegging for 5 weeks so hopefully I can get the ladys up to atlease over 1.5 2 oz. Also I have ben running SOG's but I will be switching to SCROG now with my amazingly huge reflector. I have a light mover that i was going to add but the reflector so big and heavy it not even worth it now. Man i am going into wk 5 this weekend so in a few weeks I can let you guys know how my new addition did! O yeah I forgot to add that the Rain forest abd Aeroflo 18 are both new peices, well Ive had the rain forrest since the start of this cycle and yes it made a huge difference and the aeroflo just was set up and cranked up this week which was the start of wk 4. I am looking forward to fatter & denser nugs.

Are you guys foiler feeding in flower, if so up to what week. Ive always seen people say dont in flower but I have come to realize that everyony who post dont really grow but just repost other shit they read...lol!

side note: I am about to get some new gear from Cali Connection, Tahoe OG and I cant wait to pop them shits and get them in my mix!

Was really interested in Taho OG , cant go wrong with Cali Connection. Just a heads up Attitude has Reserva Privada OG Kush and OG #18 back in stock!

dude you know how hard it is to come to a decesion on what gear to purchase..... now you have made my for sure order not so sure now!!! I fuggin luv Reserva Privida along with DNA .... man I may spring for both ....bout to go do a price check. The freebies o the freebies that would come with both orders!

 

[ziggy39]

i use the GH maxi powder neuts and they seem to work really good but i dont like them very much its easy to put too much and have a bunch of powder on the bottom of your res. But its my first grow and i think next i might try flora 3 part i have to figure it out and i need to buy a calander for sure.

With a purchase at tude the freebies right now is dinafemseeds critical +. If you want a yeilder I believe this is supposedly one the best ever with a mega short flower time, commercial grower delight. Also giving away white widow I believe.

 

[303]

I ordered some blackwater from caliconnection and will be getting some the freebies, right now is dinafemseeds critical +. If you want a yeilder I believe this is supposedly one the best ever with a mega short flower time, commercial grower delight. Also giving me a free white widow seed, no desire to grow that though.

Black Water is such a killer strain. I'm in love with OG Kush just one of my all time favorite strains, that black water though Mendo Purps x OG sounds FUCKING AMAZING. I think next order I might go black water and then the Reserva Privada OG #18 I just love female seeds so easy and when you grow DWC pulling males sucks donkey nuts.
