Dont trip on weight... i was just joking bro.... yield is strain relative... look at grinspoon v big bud hahaha. Just work on quality.

Ps... if you got yellow leaves week 5... start with a higher ph by .5 in week 3..... chances are you get a ph drop from flower nutes

No they yellowed from the bottom up, lack of N, improper feed ratio's. Ph drop would yellow the entire plant at the same time.

well the flowers are eating the fans like mad if you have low pH. balanced pH is basic practice, something that does not happen unless you let it happen. they take the stored food from the nearest fans which yellow when they get deficient. Bloom nutes alone WILL NOT keep a plant green. And too much bloom nutes will just fry the fans off even quicker before the buds will even get to use them, if this happens too early in flower, your harvest is fucked.

When ever I want to grow bigger flowers using a 'Bloom Booster' I just grab a wad of cash and throw it out the window and then get back to work thanking Allah that I didn't put that shit on my plants.

Az2000, resinhound and dr.who already answered the thread. Lets just shut it down because threads like these is the reason new growers continuously get confused. They read it and they start to itch! They get lost in questions but pretend they know how it works! Growing cannabis isn't something you can google because there is just way too much misinformation out there. It's pretty simple, you keep deficiencies and toxicities away AT ALL TIMES and you have happy plants that couldn't do any better but you can't do this by following the feed schedule on the bottle.

''Threads like these'' are actually helpful. Why don't you take your complaints up with the company's producing all these terrible products rather than trying to lynch those using them. You and most of the regulars here exhibit 0 empathy, new growers who swim through a sea of ''Advice from professionals'' are obviously going to get bitten by a shark at some point. Yet, you think posting here, to people who can actually review products while not being profit driven is a bad idea?.

Do explain how else a person is to understand or educate himself on such topics with no prior experience on where to track that ''credible'' information down. Simply understanding how a plant works is not going to cut it. Nowhere in my educational back ground was I shown that topping a plant of upto 70% is actually beneficial. If I were to go back some years and echo your attitude then a lot of what you currently do would have me deem you an idiot.

Let me give you an example. Link me all the logistics, equipment and techniques involved in climbing a multi pitch trad of your choice. I will jump down your throat when you inevitably show some poor information. And in all fairness what I've asked you to search will be far easier to get right than trying to understand the cluster fuck of professional liars and armature do wrongs involved in growing. I can't trust the professionals but I can't ask the amateurs?.. a dog chasing his tail.

I've been given some very useful info on either side of the coin while you have contributed nothing. Daunting must be the revelation that you are the only problem here.

Even if your stance is right it is interesting insight of the low esteem leading you into using your knowledge only to persecute fools.

My experience is that jacks 10-30-20 was beneficial in small doses. 1/2 teaspoon per gallon during week 6 , then week 7. It did fatten up noticeably more than the same strain when I kept using megacrop by itself.

Slurricane, fed 400+ ppm of megacrop every 2-3 days. In a mix probably 80%coco, some peat and ground up wood mixed in. Then during week 6 and 7 some feedings were substituted 1/2 teaspoon 10-30-20 per gallon instead so I could bump the P up higher than what's in megacrop
