    Dr. Bruce Bugbee method: NASA technique on Mars etc.

    if ur using the peat lite 20-10-20 it could be calcium defficiency from the additives in the soil not being enough calcium. i know at least some of the jacks 20-10-20 has no calcium. could be too little phosporus... theres not much P in the 20-10-20... not much at all... going in at 6.5 ph...

    Dr. Bruce Bugbee method: NASA technique on Mars etc.

    this is the numbers in ppms... if i remmeber correctly he says a nitrogen rate of 120ppms in the video... these numbers i think would average out to pretty close to that. you only give the start solutiuon 1 time in hydroponics... then go into veg refill.. then reprodutive refill.. also...

    Dr. Bruce Bugbee method: NASA technique on Mars etc.

    its very important to note that the 20-10-20 he reccomends has almost no other nuitents in it. i think it has micro nuitenients but other than the NPK it has almost nothing. so while the additions he adds do help to w the PH they are also there to supply the other nuitents not in the jacks...

    righht on thanks for that.... im running the hydro system and i dont do any flushing or changin the water or anything like that. so i really got to be on point for whats coming out and whats going in the cirulating solution. i find it easier to keep the nuitreint count using the ppms.

    these would basically averasge out the the 20-10-20 he reccomends but it also has the calcium magnesiuom sulfer in the nuitreint feed as opposed to the bugbee method that puts a lot of that stuff in the soil.. its eaiser to gauge when its in the liquid feed.
