I am currently a week away from chop on my 2nd grow (first hydro) and love it but want to make improvements to the next one.
First some background:
-I am using an 18 gallon stealth hydro bubbleponics system that I wish I would have built myself (hindsight is 20/20) It has two growing pods and a reservoir.
- I vegged under a 4 foot, 4-bulb t5 fixture
-600w hps cooltube for flowering
-Nutes are: Botanicare Pureblend Pro Grow, Botanicare Pureblend Pro Bloom, Liquid Karma, Cal-mag, and the Fox Farm's tri-pack (open sesame, cha-ching and beastie blooms)
-Using R/O water
If I left anything out, just ask and I'll answer. I'm going to write up a journal after harvest.
I started the grow without anything to combat pathogens but got a little scared when roots started browning so I drained and filled with plain water and added some H202 for a day. I then drained and filled and started using hygrozyme.
My main question is: Can I use H202 regularly with botanicare nutes? I know that organic grows should steer clear of H202 but I don't know if botanicare falls in that category. They claim "premium natural and organic based plant food" So is organic based organic? If anyone has used H202 with botanicare nutes, please enlighten me with your experience. I like hygrozyme, it has worked really well for me but I have to order it and it is expensive. If I can use H202 instead, I would prefer that. If anyone else has any other suggestions, I'm all ears.
My plants vegged for about 5 weeks and then fell over during flowering so it has been a mess of strings to keep everything good. I was told the clones were OG Kush x Trainwreck which to my understanding is Kandy Kush. Here are a couple of pictures from 12-12-10:
