Looking for advice on a feeding schedule using mega crop. I grow in non-additive soil (potting soil with vermiculite, perlite and cow manure) in 10 gal fabric pots. By utilizing mega-crop’s feeding chart I’m looking for advice on a schedule. For example I’ve heard that on a 3 day schedule the procedure could be feed, feed and on the 3rd day water only, then start the process over.
Secondly, I understand that sativa does not like nutes, if so I’m wondering if I should cut the admixture in half for the sativas.
Cannabis is cannabis and sativas and indicas like pretty much the same environment.
Most nutrient lines are the same as well, but I would note that most of their feeding amounts are pretty aggressive. Many feed only half the recommended doses and do just fine.
Many (self included) feed somewhat lightly with each watering and do our best to maintain proper PPMs, which is really the only good way to maintain proper nutrient levels. Cannabis prefers wet and dry cycles, so be sure to let your soil dry out between each watering / feeding. How many days that ends up being depends on several factors like the size of the plant, the size of the container, how much light you are pouring on, etc.
Sorry but my Sativas love getting nutrients. Start small and work your way up to a full dose. I tend to split the dose over a 2 to 3 day watering. Since I use Fox Farms I am supposed to feed nutrients twice per week so a total of 2 gallons of water per week.
