Howdy RIU.
I'm on my second grow and have a question.
I'm using mega crop and their kelp, also have been adding Raw silica, cal mag was needed. And yucca.
Do I continue with the kelp, silica, and calmag to the end?
Or should I ween it down?
Thanks in advance

i'd first drop your EC . lots of tip burn on new growth.

Looking great for a second grow. A little tip burn is something a healthy plant will quickly recover from. I wouldn't change anything except the forementioned main fertilizer. Try cutting it back by about 20%.

Do you add all of those ingredients at once or alternate btw the different products?

Been adding it all each feeding.
Start with silica, sit an hr, then MC, kelp, calmag, yucca
Ya, I noticed the tips. Will dial it back next feeding.
Thanks fellas!

Howdy … my 2 peso pardner.

I would probably back off the silica. It is mostly to harden plant against environmental, pest and stress tolerances. But they do look great. Definitely keep the kelp - macronutrients.

What medium ?

Thanks budz!
I'll cut out the silica.
Ya looks like all 5 will make it.
My first grow only 1 made it.
The best thing using the MC.... Not a single dam gnat
Also learned that autos do NOT like 100% of my light... 75 max

I'm absolutely blown away by this grow using the MC.
Fingers crossed in about a month or so I should have my first report.
1st grow went to make butter. It smoked by meh.

afaik you want to mix them silica first, then cal, main nutes, then the rest (one at a time)..

Well this doesn't looks so good.... Cut all in half with last night's feeding and it looks like it's getting worse.
Any suggestions @Budzbuddha @rkymtnman
In 5 gall... 1 gal to each
8g of Mega crop
3g of their kelp.
15oz of calmag
1/8 tsp yucca
PH to 6.5
Ec was 8 from 1.2
I left out the silica this feed and have never used epsom salt
Advice and help needed.
Thx in advance
