Am I mixing to much nutes? Or will I be ok?

I would say you're on the right track. But take it easy on the nutes. Start slow and add more as you find your ppm dropping. I rarely use a bunch of additives, unless I have a deficiency start which is rare. I mostly use a 2 part in my veg stage, keeps it simple, and for most strains, I've grown they seem content with it. Also, be careful of nutrient lockout. the things you mix-ups your chances of nutrient lockout. Good work, keep up the good work:bigjoint:

Thanks for the reply. So far. I haven't had any trouble. On my nutes. But I will most definitely slow down on it.

If you are in the US, check out Ebay for Southern Ag Garden Friendly Fungicide. don't let hte name scare you, it's a million times more concentrated than Hydroguard and cheaper and the same strain of bacteria.

Have you ever used silver bullets? I read an article in here. Of someone using it. But I will most definitely look into getting the southern agarden friendly fungicide.
HydroGuard do get very pricey.
Thanks again.

I just use HydroGuard. Bc of my heat problem on the roots. Sometime I get lazy n forget to put iced water bottle in the rez. So I'm using HydroGuard to keep me from getting root rots. But im always welling to learn something new. Thanks for the tips.

I didn't have much success with the iced water bottle in the rez trick this past summer, the little bit it helped didn't last long. Water got up to around 71F for a while but no rot even without a sterile rez or benes. Lucky I guess, or maybe being a recirculating system helps too.

You're plants look healthy, follow you're instincts and I think you'll be a happy guy in a few months. I juice my crops the fuck out with all the nutes Blue Planet has to offer and end up with absolute space buds that make people hallucinate they're so strong. The best nute advice in my book is to watch your plants reactions and approach feeding changes gradually over time, given they're isn't a crisis going on that is.

Nice job on the training.

Yeah. I'm struggling to keep the rez cool. But it does it for the time being. Will built a water chiller. In the spring time to help keep the water cool. I've seen the blue planet nutrients on Amazon. Just didn't know of anyone ever using it. I might give them a try after this batch. I want to try flora also. So I'll do 1 bucket on each nutrients. :) n thank you for the comment.

If you do try BP, go right to their website and you get free shipping over $150 I think. They've answered any questions I've had and steered me straight a few times. I can't say enough good things about the nutes or their customer service.

Ok. I'll keep that in mind. Thank you.
Do you have any pictures of your finish products with the BP by any chance?
