i did a little journal, the nutrients i listed were never used all at once, i just added differant ones at differant stages of growth depending on there N-P-K value.

I'm certain i read that canna coco (the one i use) self buffers to a 6.4 - 6.6 range, and have never had a problem since ditching the acid i was using to lower it myself.

Checked my PH run off the other day and it was showing as 6.0, i have been feeding at 5.8 twice now and the plants are already thanking me for it. Im also using canna coco man...what would be your suggestions on the watering sched that i asked u before tickle? Thanks! :)

I would feed every time, but keep the levels low, and they'll be happy as :)
my best plant yet yielded 16.5 ounce on half strength feed (at most) and this was only for a few weeks in full flower, but she drank like 3-5 litres a day(she was in 20l airpot, with Canna Coco), so i reckon you get away with less feed, just more often, instead of too much, not often enough, best advice is in my sig, just keep em green :)
she never lost a leaf, and was a very healthy plant, only problem i had was a little heat problem as she got too near the lights.

I use the bluelabs ppm rod, and never go above 1.6- 1.8<max ec

hmmm, fair play, but they recommend putting twice as much feed in also, so I'll take it with a pinch of salt and feed them what they need, not what canna say, all i can say is that my last 5 or so grows, i have not altered the ph with acid or anything else (really cant remember where i heard canna self buffers, but i stopped ajusting after that)

After just reading the canna bag itself, it too says that you gotta put in water @ 5.8...hmmm, well, i aint changing what is already working perfect for me, but it does make you think...does it really matter?

Don't mess with success. Keep it frosty!
