I think the tub im using is like 27gallons. Probably only 22 gallons on soil though. Been giving it 4 to 5 gallons of water a day depending on how hot it is or how dry the soil looks. Is that still not enough water? I definitely get run off. And what does the molasses do?
Ok so about 3.5 to 4 gals then?...
That's a larger scale than im used to lol, but whatever saturates the soil enough, is how much you should give, and you water when the container feels light, or the top 2 inches of soil is dry.
Unless you are growing in coco, you won't need to add cal/mag that often. What is the source of your water? I'd say try the organics section for help with dosages and/or what you can get to feed them. maybe someone can suggest a tea to make that will help. Im used to my ppm meter and feeding mostly chemical nutes, so i wouldn't take a stab at advising you on how much or how often to add what, as i have no experience with organic feedings. I can only help with plant symptoms in this case
Dude you are the true mvp! Helped me out so much more than google haha. Glad you were able to save your plant! So i guess ill just go back to the store and ask them what kind organic nitro supplement i should use. That last pic you have of the plant is gorgeous. Those kolas are huge!. I def wont have nugs like that
Just remind them that you are into flowering, just trying to correct a small nitrogen deficiency. Nitrogen should not be overdone in flowering as it slows down/halts flowering if done in excess. It's why it's always important to start at quarter to half strength of recommendations and move up if needed. You also need a source of potassium and phosphorus, its not just a nitro supplement you need. The big bloom has almost no n-p-k value. I think the one you needed more was the grow big from them. Ultimately, you're looking for an n-p-k ratio around 2-1-3 (or 4-2-6) during vegetation, and flowering is more 1-2-3, or 2-4-6, and usually some bloom booster for mid flowering.
Ok sounds good ill tell them that, truly appreciate your help man.
Will the shooting powder help with phosphorus?
what's in it? Take a pic of the ingredients.
Will do
Ok so basically i would need to use it with same brand supplements. And would only be used in a couple weeks from now. Pretty sure my plant is in week 4 flower, i think its supposed to go till late oct.
Ill look into that for sure. Gonna try to hit the store before it closes and tell them what you told me to. As for a natural supplement what would your opinion be on using fish emulsion?
You can use fish emulsion, a 2 part system is better as one usually has most of the n and some p and k along with micronutrients, and the other has the p and k in higher amounts along with usually magnesium and sulfur. With a 1 part system, you have to add all 3 (npk) in the same ratio always, which doesn't always work for the duration of a grow.
So being this far into the grow, would it be alright to use along side the cal mag and big bloom i have?
