I don’t see nute burn issues, it’s easy to mix, grows good cannabis. It’s also much less expensive. I do recommend silica as it’s not present in the line.

I have used Jacks 321 and now TAP for my current grow for two years. I follow Jack’s published feeding schedule for both 321 and TAP. I grow in coco and perlite. I run a couple autopots and also top feed a plant or two. There are a lot of us out here.
I initially started using the 3.6 / 2.4 / 1.2 standard mix. But then everyone seemed to modify it and tweaking it so eventually decided to use the published schedule. No issues using it other than I have to either add Epsom or not decrease it ratably if I want to reduce ppms (mix at 75%)

I used it for a grow, and will be using it again in an upcoming. Its alot easier to use then FF, I dont know if id say its better. See alot of growers use it with coco and rave about it. Dont use coco myself at this time.

I’ve used jacks for a few grows now always used it at the recommended dose and did well with it. I have a grow that I’m just getting started with jacks. I cut the ppm’s back the seedling are looking good and strong.

I switched to Jacks the last 2 grows.

Easy, simple and effective.

It gets my vote.

I second all of the above. I based my feeding of the kootmed chart above. Cheap, easy to use and hard to beat. I’m a proponent of extra P and K during flowering. First run with Jack’s I used MKP (2/2.7/2/1.2) the first three weeks of flower. Next time I’ll do that for two weeks then use big bud powder weeks 2-5.

I used the new recommended blend 3.79/2.52/0.99 and it worked well. Had to up part B 0.2g for one plant for a while but otherwise I didn’t have any issues. No flushing, no salt buildup, perfect runoff numbers all the way through.

How do you have that light that close? Do you have it dimmed way down to do so?

It’s just a 4’ bank of T5 fluorescent grow bulbs that are heavy on the white and blue for tight node spacing and almost no heat. Call it my garbage veg light on a shoestring budget.




What I use in my flowering tent is a horse of a different color. Would never dream of getting the light that close to the zkittlez. They have corca 4 weeks left.

Mono potassium phosphate is a phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. Some growers run a modified Jacks 321 and MKP the first 3 weeks in flower to boost the PK :love_you_gesture:

My current plants are being fed at 50% 75% and 100%. It is strange, they must not be heavy eaters. In the past I pretty much ran 100%. This time it is the exception.
She is a big plant and happy but doesn’t need 100% very often.

Nice looking plant. Im at 50% in the seedling stage (525ppm) next watering I’m going to knock it down to around 350ppm see what happens then work my way up.
