Hey do you have a reference ..or should i say what do you usually top your nutes out at ? My last one was up to 1500 ppm and this seems to be freaking out at 1000 ppm so i am flushing the 2 tubs that seem affected, where as one of the other tubs has the same strain and seems ok tho not really growing nearly as much as the last batch did, does anyone have any advice on the supergirl strain, or bubbilicous strain, and what do most of you guys run your nutes at? And by the way i am using gh flora series nutes, with the lucas formula but this round it seems not able to handle the lucas formula which is 10-15 using only the flora micro and the bloom...i am going to try about a 1/3 of the lucas formula and see if i can recover a little bit...........please let me know guys what you are running your nutes at.........................thanx
Ill try to help bro. Here's my feeding schedule.
Note my tap water is already 400- 450 ppm right out of the faucet.
No nutes until the roots hit the water.
As soon as the roots hit water I start feeding.
Week 1 VEG 500-600 PPM grow nutes.
Week 2 VEG 600-900 PPM grow/Liquid Karma
Week 3 VEG 900-1200 PPM grow/bloom
Week 1-2 Flower 1200-1400 bloom/grow/kool bloom
Week 2-3 Flower 1400-1500 bloom/grow/kool bloom/Diamand nectar.
This should be sufficient for most strains.
If u want u can push ur ppm a little higher like i am right now for mid flower. Im going to max out around 1800. For 3 weeks and gradually start bringing it back down and flush for about a week with clearex and sweet.
Hope that helps. This feed schedule may not work with ur nutes tho. But these are numbers that always worked well for me.
I still say ph is the most important. Keep ur ph proper man and u shouldnt have any problems. They will tell u if the schedule is screwed up or not as long as u keep PH steady @ 5.8.
