These photos were taken last week but I just didn't have the time to post an update. Day 42 below... So this past week I had to add a second level of support as these plants are really starting to lean. I also noticed that since they're a bit taller than normal they're wanting to lean...

Which version are you using? The bags that I've been pulling out of are significantly less potent than yours, unless you're measuring incorrectly. I need nearly 5 grams per gallon to equal 700ppm (1.0 EC) in my 20 gallon reservoir.

MC is a 1-part so to tweak your NPK in flowering one would have to cut back the base and add a booster. That doesn't give one a lot of flexibility though and to be honest I don't know that one needs a lot of flexibility in flower. The ability though to sort of scale back N after a couple weeks...

It looks like Aqua Flores (intended for flowering in hydro) is a two part: 3-0-6 & 0-4-4. Combined you're looking at a NPK of 3-4-10 which is OK in hydro for flowering but I think adding more P to that mix would be ideal. So maybe adding DG's Magpro (2-15-4) as a booster would help? Maybe...

I'll sell you a light cycle that will make your plants flower and bud even if its still in veg an even if its 3 inches tall.

My 'rant' wasn't directed at you so my apologies if it came off that way. MC is definitely made up of 'balls and sand' so I guess if not evenly scooped one could get more of one than the other. I have not had an issue yet but I'm also using like 115gs at a time for the reservoir so the odds of...

Day 33 today... There isn't much to report here. The plants are cruising along as expect and megacrop has been pretty consistent in regards to it's use (dissolving, mixing, pH-ing, plant performance, etc.). My complaint here is that these plants are a darker shade of green than I'm used to...

Interesting. Growers across the board complain about 'cal/mag' issues with many different plant foods which to me is laughable. One cannot have both a calcium and magnesium issue simultaneously (unless both elements are missing from the formula) because these elements have an antagonistic...

That's fine for veg but unless you're running some sort of elemental analysis on your res to know how to balance it perfectly, I wouldn't do this for flower.

What EC are the FloraNova plants getting?

Mine is storing very well in a Tupperware container.

I think the directions on the foliage pro bottle say 1/2 tsp/gal. I think that's good for flowering, maybe halve that for veg? And just run that all the way through.

I don't think the nutrients are going to be your limiting factor when it comes to producing quality. If you want a stupid simple way to grow, pick up some happy frog potting soil and go with DG's foliage pro at like 1/2 tsp/gal from start to finish. That being said, my vote goes to DG...

Nope, just the dry powder food.

Day 22 today... Things are moving right along. I'd describe the health of the plants as perfect. I'm feeding around 1.1 EC and growth has been as expected, though I've had to thin the branches more than I usually have to because of the higher dose of N in this formula. The pH looks like it...

I used to use Liquid karma but it was a bit messy for hydro and I never saw much benefit in containers. FLP has worked well in both. I've always wanted to try H&G's Algen Extract. Maybe one of these days. I'd also be interested in similar humic/fulvic/sea kelp type products.

I've always liked floralicious plus. I also like a little potassium sulfate during flower for some sturdier plants.

I would avoid any 'PK boosters' and feed with a veg formula from start to finish.

For container gardening I wouldn't switch from a liquid food to a dry food either.

I'd bet my life savings that in a side-by-side grow there would be zero difference between V2 and V3 formulations.
