Nutrients For Purple Urkle Grow?

Looking to see if anyone can share their list of nutrients and feeding schedule for a successful Purple Urkle grow? Everything I read just states that you have to be very careful with the nutrients you give this strain, yet never does anyone actually list just what those nutrients are and in what amounts to feed. I appreciate any advice on this one!

Same as non purple urkle plants.

N-P-K

I had a Purple Urkle cut I kept around for a few years in the mid 2000s, it required zero care above and beyond what any plant needs. As for feed, I'm partial to either Jack's a/b or Megacrop a/b-there are a few good threads here on Jack's with exact ratios and PPMs that people use, and you'll find there is a WIDE range of PPMs that will produce an excellent crop. Just watch your plants and focus on growing pristine leaves with no deficiencies or tip burn and the buds will follow.

Appreciate the feedback... just concerned because every single article about Purple Urkle states that it requires specific nutrient feeding... just an example:

"Purple Urkle is generally considered a strain that novice growers should avoid. It requires lots of maintenance, and you must keep a close eye on its nutrient intake. "

Yet most of the time no further info is given on exactly what that means. Wasn't too interested in just giving it a whirl and seeing what happens... too much time and expense invested with growing to just see what happens.

Anyway, thought I'd ask.

Peace.

I grew the urkle a few times in the early 2000's. Compared to what ive grown up until now i found it to be pretty difficult. Its not like most indicas that can handle lots of nutes. Very picky and the yield was subpar at best. Beautiful plant though and the smoke is top notch, tasted like a grapes and a stoney high that went great with toaster strudels and x-files reruns. Perfect candidate for organic growing for sure

Thanks for that... I'm guessing that the plant just needs to be watched closely to avoid killing it with too much or too little nutrients. I've got the seeds so I wanted to try it... want to experience what the finished product tastes and feels like... never had it yet.

What kind of seeds? from what bank? I was under the assumption it was a clone only strain. I know mine were
