Do you already have nutes? What are they using now? You can add nutes now if not already done. I plan on using GH Flora Nova nutes. 1 part complete nute.
Yes i put about a week n half in! i only used 2 tsp,!im using something called 3-10-3. the guy from the hydro shop said it would work for now..! i just have no idea as to often and when. i kinda just guessedd
what do you recommend buddy??
This may sound odd but can you take a pic of the nute bottle? (front and back if possible) That is alot of P.
Most times in a DWC (like the bubble buckets you have there) you would dump and mix up a "full strength" nute solution every 2 weeks and top up with plain water in between. Do you have a TDS or PH meter?
TDS is "Total Dissolved Solid". It measure the strength of your nutrients. Good ones are $100+ but you can get a cheap one for 20-40 from dro store or ebay. I HIGHLY recommend you get a TDS and PH meter. You must know what is going on in your res to be successful with hydro. Especially using off-brand nutes.
That stuff looks pretty mild. No experience with it but it should be ok. Most of the stuff mixed up at the dro stores (house brands) are pretty decent. Use it at label strength. Go 1/2 label strenght if you are nervous.
Make up a new batch every 2 weeks and just top-up your res with water in between as needed.
I will keep my nutes at around 1000ppm. That is a very general figure and some would say it is on the low side but I prefer to not overpush the plant and run the risk of nute burn. You can use Flora Nova Bloom for the whole grow cycle but they do make a veg formula called Flora Nova Grow. Both are 1 part complete nutes. I am a believer in the "Lucas Formula".
