    Too late to top?

    Paired nodes = good for topping Alternating nodes = not good for topping

    Yeah, Steiner's sulfur ratio is racy. IDK if S tox is possible, but I imagine Mr Steiner knows, lol. Shooting from the hip, I believe I have the old blend of Mega in Hydro Buddy, but not knowing the differences, I forget what elemental differences to look for, but here's the analysis I used to...

    I'm hoping someone can help me out with a calcium conundrum. Has anybody tried mixing calcium carbonate with vinegar to chemically strip out the calcium? The end result is called Calcium Acetate Ca(C2H3O2)2, and has the molecular weight of 158.16604 g/mol. I am hoping someone knows how to do...

    3.6-2.4-1.1 is JR Peter's recommended dosage, but the refinements of the canna community reduced that down to the much simpler plain 321. Both systems are measured in grams per gallon. Here are the PPM comparisons of both, GH, Megacrop, Skybound's mid bloom and a couple others. If you want to...

    Is calcium carbonate more easily assimilated by cannabis than calcium nitrate?

    Has anybody tried mixing cali carb with vinegar to chemically strip out the calcium? The end result is called Calcium Acetate Ca(C2H3O2)2, and has the molecular weight of 158.16604 g/mol. I am hoping someone knows how to do the math to convert the molecular weight into mg/L(PPM)?

    Is calcium carbonate more easily assimilated by cannabis than calcium nitrate?

    I wasn't trying to jam this one up, I was seeking clarity for calcium carbonate for a hydro application. I'll check out those threads you linked, thanks but it's still premature for me to start a hibrix hydro thread.

    Is calcium carbonate more easily assimilated by cannabis than calcium nitrate?

    Unless the growth I see makes me feel like I want to change sooner, I generally only do Late Bloom for about a week to 10 days before a brief flush. I just dropped a Cheese that did late bloom for 10 days and when I flushed her, she faded to full yellow leaves in about 3 days.

    Is calcium carbonate more easily assimilated by cannabis than calcium nitrate?

    I am literally now transitioning feed charts b/c I am now trying to pursue High Brix in hydro and because of that I jacked up my Ca and K while reducing my N, but here are both my feed charts. The first I had fantastic results with save for very minor Ca spotting and a tad bit of K def in low...

    Is calcium carbonate more easily assimilated by cannabis than calcium nitrate?

    I have Megacrop loaded into Hydro Buddy and the formulation I have has Ca=6.5% and Mg=1.9%. This is how MC stacks up against other blends. IMO, MC is garbage, but everyone seems to be having decent results with it so maybe I'm dead ass wrong about it? I jumped on this thread because I (a...

    I just read this in a MaxYield article; https://www.maximumyield.com/are-all-calcium-magnesium-supplements-alike/2/1263 What I got out of that is that nitrates don't make good foliar sprays.

    I forgot about FIMing. Perhaps you should consider the suggestion by @OldMedUser ? FIM stands for "Fuck, I Missed" and refers to an attempt at topping, but the likely super stoned grower snipped just a bit high up and snipped the node head in half. FIM cutting produces a grouping of branches...

    How's it do as a supplemental source of Ca? When using it in the math, the app uses it for about 35% of the Ca, cal nit adds the rest. Otherwise, do you have any suggested secondary Ca sources?

    DWC Root Slime Cure aka How to Breed Beneficial Microbes

    I just went over my Tea mix this morning on 420. HERE is the link over to it. FYI, I brew for 36-48 hours, but have went as long as 72 hours in the past with no loss of affect.

    Has anybody ever used Calcium Carbonate? I couldn't find any info to suggest that it's only a soil amendment, or should be used in foliar sprays at most, so I ordered it and lucky me, it was one of the preset solutions Daniel Fernandez created in Hydro Buddy, and that alone gave me a lot...

    Is this regarding coliseum-style growing where there's one vertical HPS and a plethora of plants growing from a cylindrical wall encircling that HPS? As for High Brix, I'm not aiming to have high brix weed, but rather am using their tools to measure the health of my plants. I only want super...

    You are correct, Doc loads his soil with 18x more calcium that requires the soil microbes to convert the calcium into something ionic that roots can uptake throughout the grow. You are also correct that in hydroponics the ratio of calcium and every other element is much different because we use...

    Just because you're getting added resin (me too) from using Epsom, does not mean that all other aspect should be overlooked. Maybe it's just that most growers are totally content with "close enough", but something from within is driving me to desire to produce the best bud I know is within my...

    Seeing as how Doc Bud advertises that he packs his soil with 18x as much calcium to the next strongest element, I presume your belief is spot on. I predict high calcium and potassium will be a generalized objective and the focal point will be finding exactly how much nitrate will be the key to...
