Veg and Bloom Grow

The Promix and Foxfarm came in at just around 70 grams per plant. The Promix is smoother yet the OF has a bit better nose on it.

Here are a couple shots of the Promix grown Jack the Ripper, very light green and pungent. You can smell a small nugget across a large room

Wow, the flavor was outstanding from the PROMIX grown herb. I smoked out a group of 6 friends around the camp fire this weekend and everyone was blown away by how smooth and tasty these came out. The Foxfarm was a not as smooth.

Check out the frost on these nugs, i lost a bit in yield running v+b but the quality is better then ive ever done. Couple more runs and i could prob yield a lot more then previously without a doubt. Also the smell is AMAZING It litterally blows me away everytime i smell my fingers.... Dont wanna sound like im trying to sell anything, i used the product and i love it, simple as that.
Blueberry kush nug shots... Cuebossa jelly?

I got a little problem with the V&B in my trial run. When I mix it up, it gives me a ph of 6.5 or 6.6 which would be great if I was growing in soil. But I'm running passive hydro hempy buckets, and I want a ph of 5.8. And it takes just as much ph down to move it from 6.5 to 5.8 as it does to drop my regular water (50/50 tap & RO ph 7.0) down to 5.8. I'm using the RO V&B. Would using the tap/well V&B drop the ph down to the 5.5 to 6.0 I'm looking for???

My only complaint with it actually. I end up at 6.3.

Also my Blue Dream definitely needs Cal Mag with it.

I started this thread using the hardwater formula. My tap water here is 8.0ph with 400 ppm(.5EC) hardness. At 1 tsp to a gallon it dropped my ph to around 6.0. I'm guessing the hardwater formula would be the solution to your needs. I've also noticed that anyone who has complained of Ca/Mg deficiency has only needed to slightly raise their EC to solve their problem...not use CalMag.

One thing I have to say is I ordered a sample and it got to me door in 3 days that has been better then a lot of stuff I payed for online haha. I am going to try if out on some early moms I have in coco and see how it does. It does seem there customer support is top notch .

I had several questions when I started using Veg+Bloom and was always given answers promptly when I emailed.
I'll have some pics up by end of week. I have a Chernobyl going that is almost 2 weeks into flower in ProMix and looking great!

Just got an email that my sample is on the way. My clones are one week in the Cloner so the timing is perfect. I'm going to run 2 k using it and another 2 k running heavy 16. I'll see how it works out..

Back to the Promix for this Chernobyl lady. I'm running straight Veg+Bloom @ 1.6 EC. Already a couple of weeks into flower. This was given to me a little stunted so I don't think I will be getting much more vertical growth out of her. Here we go.

I'm running mine in pro-mix at the recommended 3/4 tsp/gal. Aren't you running it a bit hot?

Not for this pheno. I've already narrowed it down to between 1.6-1.8 . I've had other strains start to curl at this EC but not Chernobyl. I try to find a strains tolerance during that first week or two of flower. I found the directions to be too light for the aggressive growth I like to see in my first 2 weeks.

I think you're on to something there. I'm finding at 3/4 tsp the buds seem a bit light but my god!! the trichs are fantastic! I'm growing Super Lemon Haze testing Dyna, Sensi and V&B and V&B is #1 in bud sites and trichs BUT less dense bud. Dyna has the best bud density but lacks the amount of bud sites and trichs. AN wins with good density, as numerous bud sites as V&B, and heavy trichs. (so far) . I would grow with any of these 3 nutes for sure. Seems each has it's pro's and con's.

yea have TONS of budsites with the Veg+Bloom so far. Good size nugs as well. Im about week 5-6 now, density is def not there. Not sure why that is. Have TONS of lumens and temps in low 70's to see if that helps. I typically go around 77-80.

Try the flush/feed technique I was trying to communicate a few pages back. Flush your plants with lets say 1 litre and then follow that immediately with 1 litre of V+B,1.8EC or slightly above your regular feed strength, to surge growth. I have noticed this produces results when applied weeks 5,6,7. Something to play with at least.

What is the purpose of that?

It helps harden up flowers. Strain mileage will vary of course. It's worth a try. I have been getting more aggressive in the ProMix and am trying to max out my growth potential in any way possible without complicating my regimen.
