Have been doing this for about 4 harvests have changed my schedule every grow to have healthier plants but after a while they always seem to have deficiencies. When I first fill my setup with rooted clones, I add 2ml Micro 4ml Bloom. When I add more throughout the next couple weeks I keep upping the amounts until I hit 8ml Micro, 16ml Bloom. Anybody have any suggestions? All advice and opinions will help

If you're going by the feeding schedule and still getting deficiencies.. I'd have to recommend you to try another nute company/series.

Basic things you are probably aware of (ph and temp etc.) more than likely aren't the reason, but it doesn't hurt to double check.

I use GH nutes I use the grow, micro,bloom,kool bloom and flora blend,on my first 2 grows I thought that I had some deficiencys only to find out that my water has chloramine in it,letting water stand for a day or so will not rid the water of chloramine it is very difficult to remove from the water,I now use rain water but if I run out and have to use tap water I use drops from the pet store to remove the chloramine,

Object - Stop giving people vague easy answers. You didn't even ask if he was using R.O water or CalMag. Any brand of nutrient has ratios close enough to what marijuana wants to be manipulated as such.

Did you consider that plants need different ratios of nutrients throughout their life cycle, so giving them the exact same ratio is eventually not going to work as well anymore?

You're treading on thin ice man. I HIGHLY suggest you keep your nose out of my business and stop flaming/trolling me.

A lot of people just don't run additives and think their A + B formula has everything their plants needs, and that's not the case. Furthermore, most nute companies let you know that BY FEEDING SCHEDULE.

Different strains need different nutrients. What's the point of a 3 part formula if you are supposed to use standard ratios for everything? A 1-1-1 G-M-B for veg works great for most strains. :leaf:

Post count does not indicate how good you are at anything. Go look at the talk and toke section. Full of people with no grow experience but thousands of posts. That does not make them smarter.

That said I still agree with VO

I use GH 3 part Flora series with KoolBloom exactly by the nutrient calculator on the GH website; I admit that personal experience and general green thumbness when assessing plant needs can definitely improve your yield, but I've never had a problem across strains or from one independent res to another when following the calculator. Peace.

I did the same thing my first grows used the 3 part nute line plus their additives followed the nutrient calculator had some nute burn and cal mag issues but that was about it.
