lucas formula!!! ha, what a joke....

I just got some grow and am going to give the full line a try. Would it be ok to use bud start and ton of bud with cutting edge? Had a big issue with the hydro store today and looks like I'm stuck with what I have. They are both future harvest development. Thanks in advance

Okay, so the lucas formula did not work for you. Yet you still come and bring nothing other than YOUR failure at it, as these forums are overrun with folks that have produced stunning crops with that method and some still do.
I say you report your grow and I would be willing to bet, in very short order the cut corners and misteps would manifest instantly and then we would get to see the real deal. I am less than a rookie grower, but I read my ass off in these forums and as far as I can tell, 99.99% of growing errors are generated from the grower and the other .01% is manufacturing defects. The plant, whom has an untold amount of experience, will only do as it is instructed, never anything more.

Mr less than a rookie LF can't perform better than using all 3. The corners being cut was me just using micro bloom. I have seen both ways used and from cold hard seen with my own eyes expirence LF is a lazy way that will get you by.

Again, with Cutting Edge nutrients, youre not supposed to use Grow past the first week or two of 12/12 lighting. Thats not the full line either.They have a start to finish nutrient calculator on their website for different stages of development..

But I never once said I used it. Look Lucas fans, think slow and concentrate. Say you are a scientist and you developed a 3 part nute line and put it on the shelf. Kinda insulting for someone to use only 2

Calm down tough guy. I never indicated I was defending the lucas formula.
this was from my first post.
"let me ask you, so you just used flora bloom and no flora micro?

I asked this because of your comment below.
"The corners being cut was me just using micro bloom."

I was only trying to ascertain if you only used one bottle out of the 3 part system. AND how much experience you have in doing hydro. I also forgot to ask if you were using RO water or not.
but based on your jumping to conclusions and the impatience you seem to have I don't think i'll listen to your opinions on this matter anyways. I prefer to listen to calmer minds.


again I am NOT saying lucas is the correct method.
but I believe if it was found that 3 parts were not needed, a true scientist would not be insulted and would prefer to use the best way.

LF is not the way to go. Agree with OP

1:2:3 is great for veg

for flower, Gh nutes, whatever i do < i dont get the best results
