I just finished reading through. I was wondering if the top dressing worked at all for the water retention a while back. I usually end up just transplating after a couple of weeks of flower because i get sick of watering every day. I dunno if your supposed to, some people scream hermiiiii! If you say your going to transplant in flower but i still do it. A 40 dollar bale of promix is worth not watering every darn day to me lol.
It also seems i showed up just at the right time. Only a couple weeks till harvest. Thats awesome and the plants are looking top shelf. The last two weeks is like the hardest to wait for. I always find myself scoping tricombs thinking i could just cut a few days early and it would be ok :lol:

hey pie

i remember that you're using an epsoma plant tone, but i don't remember which one and how much!! also, what's your latest ratio of promix to perlite??

thanks!!!



i've been using epsoma plant tone, the 5-3-3, with great success. i use it to start seeds, transplant rooted clones into, and i used it for every plant of every size in veg. when i'm preparing them for flower they get transplanted into a container that is about twice the size as the one they are vegging in. the pre flower transplant is into straight promix, no additives, and the plant tone seems to last them till when flower stretch is nearly over. by then the plant tone is depleted, and i'm watering in maxsea bloom nutes.

i dunno, seems to work well. but i see that you are having amazing results with just the plant tone, so now you've got me thinking of trying it. i've nothing to lose, and plenty of plants to try it on!

so lay it on me, how are you doing your thing currently? i know its back in the thread somewhere but you know how that jazz goes...

3 gallons promix
2 gallons perlite
5 cups EWC
7 tbsp Azomite
3 cups Garden Tone

Every time I up pot, dip roots in extreme mykos.

That is the new mix. Last mix only had 1.75 cups of garden tone and ran out of steam 5 weeks into flower. So I have been using maxi gro every other water.

The mix I posted should last a whole cycle tho.

I mist with potassium bicarbonate (green cure) every time I top. Then I do it once a week. I let them sit in the dark for an hour after topping or misting.

Oh, and I use Epsom salt at 1 top per gallon when I up pot to 5 gallon. Then again halfway through flower and a couple times near end of flower.

Makes em plump up real fast. Magnesium increases availability and uptake of phosphorus.

I run a product called magnum at the end. Reminds me of the trojan ones but anywaaaay, its all magnesium and sulfer. Its what i switched to a while back for mid to late flower when im cutting out the calmag supplement i feed with. Still get mag with no cal, and sulfer, which ive heard, but never seen proof of, is supposed to be good for the plant in the late stages.

OK, so you use the garden tone, I'm using the plant tone.

I really like the epsoma stuff. It is strong but gentle, like a said I use it for my seedlings, but i can transplant 5ft monsters into the same mix and they all do fine.

My next batch I'll make a bit stronger and I'll see if it'll last till finish. Or I could reamend right before flower...

Something to think about. Thanks for.posting your technique, I'll give it a try.

And you reminded me to buy perlite!! Thanks! My last batch didn't have any perlite added and it really retains lots of water, drains so slow, etc

Have a good day pie
