Hi folks!

Some funkiness with the forum, I posted exactly this before, and its not showing up...
Hope its ok to jump in. Im trying to recreate Fatmans Veg and Bloom formulas, or whatever you nice people suggest. I have found the following recipe :

I have the following chemicals available to me :

I input these values in hydrobuddy

And I get vastly different results... Please note that the Mass below is in ounces, and it is a bug that does not change Mass (g). I can understand weights of elements used being different from the originial formula, but the NPK suggested in the original formula is 3.25 : 1 : 3.24, also different. edit, when I multiply my NPK ratios by 3.25, I get close.

What am I missing ?

Thanks for any and all help folks!
Take care!

Hey dog! Thanks for the reply. yes. But please ignore that post, ill start again.
@TintEastwood and @Mont@n@ , thanks folks! So I tried to replicate Sidewings recipe linked to by Mont@n@, and I get the following, does this look reasonable ? Substances used are bearing in mind what available to me, and getting MagnesiumNitrate is still difficult, rest is good. I tried to not use Magnesium Nitrate, but HB was not being convinced.

Im understanding that the following recipe is good for complete cycle Mj growing ?

View attachment 4647569 Molyb-N is Ammonium Molybdate @ 52% Mo

View attachment 4647571

Does this look good folks ? How can I improve, ill try compile a list of substances available to me, while I continue to study how this whole thing works in the background! But I really would like to start a grow now!

I also read that if we are not careful, some metals can fall out of solution permanently. I tried using chelates where i could. Im also reading Fe DTPA is better suited than Fe EDTA, while i do not know the difference yet, both are available to me, but I already have EDTA.

Im fully open to any recommendations. I know nothing. And am here to learn. if there are better or more appropriate formulas I am happy to adapt. My main concern would be that a solution should be good to store over a long period of time.

Is it OK to use RO water off my home water filter, or is there a good benefit to purchase Distilled ?

Thank folks!
Please be safe and take care!

I use this elemental numbers with cal mag to feed my mother plants in coco and for a flower LP aeroponic system with good results.
by the way I’m not a pro but I’m more than pleased to have all what the plant needs in 3 bottles of nutrients.

For me, it's a great discovery! Because cannabis is illegal in our country, the police have high nutritional control requirements for cannabis! It makes me depressed! I can't buy fertilizers like ordinary hydroponics in my country, but I've always been yearning for and passionate about God's gifts! I have several years of growing experience and know some basic gardening knowledge, but know nothing about chemistry. I'm trying to learn. I've read the links you've provided, even in this forum, "DIY Your Own Brand Nutrition." It's an unprecedented challenge for me, but I'm passionate about marijuana and I'm not going to give up exploring! Because I know that in my country, if I want to do planting research, learning my own nutritional formula is my only option (fortunately, in my country, you can buy basic elements such as calcium nitrate and magnesium sulfate!). )。 Until then, I've been looking for situations where anyone has successfully used the basic element ratio (I'd even like to know if this is an unrealistic move due to a lack of knowledge, so it's a bit strange to me!). Now through your description, let me realize that all of these are realistic dreams that can be realized! Thank you again and the people who wrote for this work! Could you write me your formula if possible? I appreciate it! Peace! So it's a little strange to me!
