Did any of yous find that WW is very sensitive to nutes? I can't go over 1400 PPM without seeing signs of overfertilizing so I keep it at about 1100 PPM
My first grow I rekoned everything was More the better.... more light, closet to the plants, low temps, more air circulation, more rez changes, and of course MORE nutes. I was pumping the ppms around 1300-1400. Regarding everything else... I do think more is better... but I don't thing that way with nutrients anymore. I don't think I've gone above 900 in any grow since then. For one, it's just a waste of nutrients. Also I haven't had a deficiency show up once. I am of the opinion to give the plants the least ammount of nutrients possible, so I wouldn't be worrying if a plant can't handle 1200ppms... I would be trying to see if she could enjoy 900... even 800. In my opinion the nutrients are just to keep the plant alive and well, to flourish in the environment you provide for them... and that environment is what is going to make some fat nugs (light, temp, airflow, oxygen to roots). I am also one to think a well placed additive to make things happen as well (bushmaster, gravity, potash boost, etc).In hydro, yes. I ran the last WW at 1250ppm and couldn't go higher without burn. Doesn't like full stength in soil either but you can get closer to a full strength rec feeding with it. I have some on hydro and some in soil right now. The hydro ones are just now getting a light reduction heading into flower so I'm mixing veg and flower nutes but am staying at 900 ppm right now. I'll bump them up a little each week for a few weeks until I reach 1250-1300 ppm of bloom nutes. The soil ones are a few weeks into flower and took a full strength dose of FF Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom with a half strength dose of Open Sesame mixed in with no signs of burn. I already know I cant go full strength on the solubles with WW so they won't get anything stronger than they are now.
I had a great day yesterday. Took a nice ride up to see our buddy jig, and might I say, he is a cool cat. His plants look super healthy, and that flower room is BRIGHT!!!! I smoked a few strains he has grown, and damn was I stoned. We were going to go hit the skate park, but I just wanted to talk more then i wanted to move. It wasnt until I had to navigate my way around the jungle that is the freeway, that I realized how high I was. Thanks again jig.
You guys are making me blush. I'm glad you had a good time visiting and tasting my strains. I had a real good time visiting as well, even if you are hillbilly trash lol. I can't wait to chill with everyone of the 600 crew. If only I had a family member that worked for an airline... that would be the life.Jig seems like a dude I'd get along with pretty well. I'm sure his closet is pretty impressive in person too.
Very sound thinking there. I just hit 1300 for the last time. My feeding schedule peaks at week three of flowering and tapers down to 600 when I finish. I think I'll peak out at 1100 for a while and see how that goes. I flushed the last time and won't bother with that again. Why starve your plant when it just wants to live? In my experience, it tastes and burns the same. I'm not a fan of additives, although I'm frequently tempted. Genetics and environment are the key.My first grow I rekoned everything was More the better.... more light, closet to the plants, low temps, more air circulation, more rez changes, and of course MORE nutes.
