Hi All,

I've tried searching for a "suggested ppm chart" but couldn't find one.

First off, I know there's not a definite number and it all just depends on the plant so i'm looking for suggestions more then anything.

My plants are at 2 weeks old from seed in 5 gal bubblers under 400hps. Currently I have the ppm at 300 with Dyna-Gro "Grow". They are doing well. I don't need to change the rez for another 9 days. Should I wait until then to add more nutes or should I give them more now since they are doing so well?

Does anyone know of a chart; maybe per week or something? Thanks.

Id like to use a Water farm and I read that Ionic and Canna are great so Ill be purchasing one of these soon. Ive read books and grow journals and I believe Ive memorised the process quite well the only thing that hasnt been mentioned in detail is HOW MUCH NUTES TO USE DURING SEEDING, 1ST/2ND/3RD etc WEEK OF VEG AND FLOWERING.

Why hasnt any one given detailed guides for nutes? SOMEONE PLEASE HELP US NOOBIES WE NEED TO KNOW!

Your nutes should have a feeding schedule that tells you how much to mix and what the ppm should be. I use Foxfarm and on their feeding schedule they start out a 700 ppm but i start out at 1/4 strength 250 ppm the first week and then 1/2 strength at 350 ppm the next week. Then i go to full strength. My plants have responded well using this method and i have not had any nute burn this way.

Great to know :) ! I have both GH and Dyna-Gro and I chose Dyna-Gro for some reason, i'm not even sure now.

Thanks Sticky. Sounds like what i'm doing is very close to your method.
