Right now in my grow its mixing Part A and epsom salt in one bucket. Mixing Part B in another bucket, fill up rez and PH. I like working with the powder over the liquids. The liquids were too messy for me, but to each his own.

Just curious roughly how many gallons do you think you use a month?

This is the best video for learning about dry nutrients IMO. Short version - cheaper, more control over individual nutrients throughout grow.

Yea, in his mixing video he adds Part A (doesn't show if stirred/mixed), then Part B (doesn't show if stirred/mixed, technically wrong order), then Epsom. As you pointed out by saying you put Part A and Epsom in the same bucket, there's already "Epsom" in Jacks (Part A), so it's fine. It just means you can't then alter those ratios later (except if you wanna add more Epsom, I guess).

I'd do it in the right order though it's easy to not think of it, if you didn't know, because you'll want to add it in the order you're weighing it (as a newb), and if you're mixing any type of concentrated mix to then dilute, you'll probably run into issues (precipitation).

This is jacks actual instructions on order of mixing. They used to have an info page that was great (shown in the video you linked, now I can't find it).

This video has even more great info in it: "Greengenes Live: Nutrients" (don't wanna post more vids here).

Thanks!.... we're loving these roller trays!.. Didn't get them installed until this past 3rd run, but they are awesome! You can move them 17 inches either way with one finger!.. even loaded up with a fresh feeding. Prob been our best investment so far.
What companies trays are those that can move with 1 finger?! Bad ass man!

This time of year is great!, we don’t even use the AC at the moment. And July and August is almost impossible, it’s just too hot. RH is pretty steady and easy to control with 3, 4000 sq ft dehuyes. We have 2 on turbo and constant drain, and one that we dump in the sink twice a day. Those trays are from Botanicare. We sure do love them!, makes maintenance so much easier! Going from memory here. But I think for 3, 20. Ft long trays was somewhere around $6500 for parts only. The guy I bought them from wanted to install them for free so he could learn how to do it and start selling them out of his grow store. Sadly, he went out of business a couple of months later.

Haven’t had anything break or rupture lately so that’s good!..been on hermie watch, and so far, all looks good. I need to add a WiFi router out there, my playlist on my phone is getting old lol!176E2D3B-6F09-4759-B67D-C42761FC88B5.jpegA9DC0F69-9850-412F-ACC2-A1685C41A207.jpeg5B71EF7C-5A34-4D12-9C06-BB92B248D770.jpeg

When you say 3 4000 sq ft dehueys i dont really understand because there are companies that market themselves as XXXX sq ft and remove like 10 pints of water a day. :D.

How many pints are removed per?

Amazing work man! I hear ya on the trimming. How close are you to the city?

We’re about an hour away from the City. (For those of you not from Oklahoma, The City is Oklahoma City). We pull 70 pints per day, per unit. So, like 210 pints a day.

Garden is looking on point, again.
I began running Jacks 3-2-1 this year and I've had very good results. Simple to mix, stable and once you dial in the ec your strain likes it's on auto-pilot.

Looks good man! Try some glue sometime its easy to grow and yields nice.
Thanks brother!... man, there is so much glue on the market right now, you can't hardly give it away. That's why we have stuck to these Ethos Genetics, I have only seen one other person grow OKC (Orange Kush Cake), and that was a personal grow. I don't even want to run Cindy99 again because there is a lot of it out there too. Dosi Whoa! is rare, that's why we grow it. However, it's not an easy one to grow, and the yield is not super great, but man!., everyone loves it! I hate the structure of the way it grows, and it can be a super stretcher with alot of secondary sub branches that you have to plow through and get rid of... same with Banana Punch OG, except is stays shorter. I'd like to do Green Crack again, and Sour D but,.. also all over the market as well.

Ya I feel you man I’m growing some purple diesel and purple crack rn it’s always good to have something fresh for the market. I’m about to cross these two and I’ll have something really new for the okies in my area. I’m going to run some ethos soon I’ve heard nothing but good things.
