I purchased Jacks 321 and was wondering if anyone has a feeding schedule that works best with this?
Feed as necessary to maintain a runoff PPM of 1,000. I generally feed the 321 advised mix every watering to maintain the level.
Whether coco or soil, feed every watering. No plain waterings, unless toxicities become present.
Edit/add… With Jacks, usually a base mix feed to thorough runoff will get any root levels issues back in line. Good stuff. Been using for years.
Too many variables at play regardless of nutes used. If top-feeding in soil, as-needed, depending on the plant’s needs - appearance, pH, EC. Soil-less top-feeding, e.g., coco, usually every watering. Pretty much anything hydroponic feeds continuously by design because it’s soil-less or uses no media at all. And self-watering bases feed continuously, too, regardless of media.
I think I have most of the 321 mix’s. I’m not sure what the ebsom salt’s are for. It’s a boost mix. I’ve been old school for years now trying to use a better mix other than hog and chicken shit.
The epsom is for magnesium just make sur when you mix part A, Epsom, then partB make sure each part is fully dissolved before adding the next:grin:
Thank you brother. It doesn’t give a mix amount per gallon of water
3.8 grams A,1.2grams epsom,2.3gramsB:grin:
I’m not using Jacks 321 myself, but I’ve heard that many growers feed at every watering with the recommended ratio. Hope your plants thrive!
Thank y’all for the support and great advice. This is the bomb
Magnesium and sulfur.

Something else I noticed is. I set the PH to 6.5 then I mix the nutrients and the PH drops to 5.3. Should I then adjust up to 6.5?
PH after Nutes are mixed.
Thank you
