Can't figure out exactly what the problem is?

actually this is even better and easier to mix

you wont need the bloom, the magnific, or the Epsom salt


bloom full strength per gallon

4 mls grow
8mls micro
6mls candy
2.5mls astro

veg
9 mls grow
9 mls micro
5 mls candy

its actually better than the first recipe because the removal of the bloom nute helps get the micros down to whats appropriate ,, like I mentioned the first mix had the micro nutes real high


Thanks man. are you sure I should use the grow nutrient for the bloom phase? it seems pretty strange... lol and once again i half these measurements for a 2L container right

fertilizer is just a set of numbers that describe whats inside

how your brand labels it "bloom" or "veg" is just a label

in the end its just
nitrogen
phosphorus
potassium

and so on

if you look at the ingredients between the bloom and grow there not much different

the bloom is 1-4-6 n- p - k

the grow is 2-3-5 n - p - k

the only difference is the grow has more Nitrogen and the bloom has more phosphorus

OK :P So you are confident your recommendations will make my plants healthy again then huh? :) I will try it out tomorrow bro when i water them :P but how come the indica plants like cheese seem to respond to the excessive nutrients with no problems? Last grow i followed the feed schedule on cheese and blue cheese plants and I had them healthy all the way through? Now I have moved to hazes and kush's I am noticing problems. Weird. anyways i'll be sure to try it out and keep you posted on how they respond. Thanks again :)

start with the formula I gave

if theyre showing signs of def mix it the same way but with slightly less water to raise the ppm/EC

if you mix ten gallons worth of the formula/nutes only in 9 gallons of water youll raise your solution strength by 10%

mix ten gallons of worth of formula/nutes in 8 gallons of water youll raiseit 20%

the mix I gave is balanced and safe... you might find it low but its a safe starting point and if its low its not by much

its easy to give more... but if you give too much its hard to take it back

I can figure a mix using the bloom for flower
that's no problem


per gallon for bloom
8 mls micro
8 mls bloom
2 mls candy
1/4 tsp Epsom salt (1 gram)

per gallon veg
9 mls grow
8mls micro
1/4 tsp Epsom salt (1 gram)

if I spent enough time on it I could find more ways to mix it lol

any of these formula would work and theyre close to the same

again..your nutes have considerably more micro nutes than most no matter how you mix it,
it likely will be fine but I just want to note it:

notice the bloom is added but the astro is removed
you don't need both

the reason I choose the astro over the bloom in the first flower formula was because the astro has no micros but it does have sulfur
notice theres little to no sulfur listed on the info you provided so again the sulfur in the astro was desirable

since the micro nutrients in your "micro" are already high it was better to not use the bloom and pick the astro for your P & K needs

I also understand the author may not be with us anymore and for that I am deeply sorry.
So Im4satori was a good friend of mine he is basically using an excel spread sheet that is a nute calcualtor you type in your res size the NPK % of the nutrients you are using and it will calculate the dosing of each nutrient. Pm your email i will find a copy of the calculator and send it your way but study it well before puttin info in its easy to mess it up where it wont work properly.

I’m going to try Im4satori’s advice on the nutrient mix. I had massive success following the Remo calculator on my previous Green house seeds cheese, so I figured I’d do the same with this run of Jack Herer. Not looking good so far. Will post an update in a week after I mix up the feed.

You probably figured it out by now but it looks like over feeding, the fingers of the leaves look like they are clawing so maybe to much nitrogen?mag cal.
