I’d reduce the dosage to 1/2 of what is in the FF schedule. I never use full dosage of any ferts. Also keep in mind that amount is for a week, so if you’re watering twice a week, it’d be half of that half, which would be 1/4 dose.
Certainly wouldn’t hurt to have a bit more runoff, mini flushes are good.
You the man
It seems the fox farm schedule differs from the bottle. Which to follow
Do you feed nutes and calmag every watering or do you use just RO and calmag every other feeding, thanks hellraiser
Ph up and down wont be here for 2 feedings, just water ph is dead on, nute should drop it. Will it be okay till then
I’m growing in Coco right now as a first time grower. I’ve done a fair amount of research and also asked hellraiser and a few other a question or two and it’s definitely seems like consistency is key. My plan is to feed twice a day I stop as soon as see run off l. I’ll feed 5 times then water with just pH and cal mag water. Being as cal mag is a little high in ppm hopefully it will allow for consistent ppm EC and pH
Also I’m pretty positive nutes increase pH it did for me as well as the cal mag
Follow the schedule over bottle.
I’ve gone back and fourth on feeding every watering and skipping. But currently I’m on a feed every watering kick, including the calmag. My flowering girls this session seem more perky with feeding every watering at 1.3 - 1.4 EC, than my previous flowering session where I skipped feedings. A constant level of nutrition seems to make sense but it can also be easy to get off track if you’re going too low or too high with the nutes,
In the end, it doesn’t really matter, either method of ferting works, just whatever you prefer or fits better in your schedule.
@Hellraiser Wow is all I can say! This is so informative for someone like me! Set to watching!
Hey Travis23, Welcome to the party and let’s grow some serious weed.
Your seed starting method worked great for me, once I got a new batch of good seeds. Then again, I probably overwatered that first batch. I don’t know. Another thing I tried recently that worked great for me was Root Riot starter cubes. No presoaking of seeds, and everybody came up in 2-3 days! If that’s cheating, then I am a proud cheater. ![]()
I really love this thread!
Sweet! Good going Larry, I’m glad you got it worked out.
Hey @Hellraiser I was brought to your journal by recommendation and just finished reading the information up to date amazing what being on top of a process can simply show you over time , you understand the plant and not just follow a chart or instructions blindly, Growing has many bits and pieces and a lot of them look like a puzzle to me but with your article it makes all that much more sense , thanks for the info keep it up
Late to the party, sowere you using 7 gal smart pots in 4 by 4 area?
How tall does the IGLM Gorilla Glue get after ruffly between 5-7 weeks of veg.
I ordered the beans and was looking to do 4 >7 gal or 5 >5 gal in my 4X4X6.5 tent.
Can’t seem make up my mine.
Thanks for the info Hellraiser
Any pics of your setup?
Thanks so much for your grow journal. I am truly amazed at how much help your thread has given me!
