Are you using Big Bud, Hammerhead, Kushie Kush, Grandma Enggys H2 & F1, and Final Phase? Also are you applying any foilage sprays?
@bayhydro420 yes coco is a inert mediem that has nothing for the plant,only the N.P.K you add so it depends on how hard your feeding them,i would never(and i dont)water water feed,why would you,then the feed would have to be so strong to give the plant all it can use,id say feed feed water,as long as no nute build up youll be fine,some add water into the ress as they go(growerMD) then only water when the ress is empty/being changed out,your ways fine,flush at the end/water every new res…
@heyITSmeWHATSupSON ill look into it but if its a 1-12-13 its,well in reality the 1(thats the N)is not needed as thats in your base and the P and the K (12 – 13 the numbers are really the wrong way round),mind it could be used as a early pk boost,a bit like bud igniter is from A.N with numbers like that,ill have to look for it ive never seen/heard of it though !!
@heyITSmeWHATSupSON thanks.
@heyITSmeWHATSupSON yup, last 2 weeks. some plants was uptaking more water then others. especially the one big one i had. roots took up whole pot compared to the others.
@heyITSmeWHATSupSON hmm ya not sure. i thought it was the opisite for coco since it has not nutes. nute nutes water. coco is still new to me so i do have some things to learn.
@TheCrunchymango awwesome blossoms is a good product too high pk 1-13-12 or something ,,
@cjkgibson agreees , i trim it wet though then on screens then into masons jars , never had any cholophl , anyways tyhe most inportant it tooo dry in the darkness , 65-70 f 30-40 humidiity . never had any problems also flushed using molasses 5ml per galloon , added weight n flavor . peace
subbed up nice plants , peace
dunno if u use this , but after the thrid week of flowering the roots stop producing , so less water is neeeded in flowering period , not the same amount as u would give veggin plant , i guess the coco , holds nutres for a long time , feed water water , and continue
YO i grew that gods gift b4 outdoor taste so good n turned purp , but mine was canadian strain…
did u flush it out aT ALLLLLLL?
@bayhydro420 try technaflora its synthetic , but didnt taste bad didnt have the synth burn either,, using x nutes this time….
@bayhydro420 try there iguana juice as you base ….along with everything u used befor……..its what im doing and im happyer then a pig in shit……
@JBarth22 thanks bro for the help and tips. ya GH is salty but AN is saltier lol. H n G is something im curious about. sounds like a better product. peace homie,
@cjkgibson ya sorry. it came out wrong. i meant the part where the bud is on. that branch not the main branch. for sure i like you input. i used to trim right away then wanted to try trimming when dry. im going to have to switch back. it did come out better before. thanks bro peace.
@MrSeedeeznuts ya im going to try different things. im curious about just going all organic. maybe the roots organic line. then do samples, i’ll have to get me one.,lol peace. bro
If you want to stick with GH, you should get Blue Planet Nutrients as it is made exactly like GH except the guy uses better source materials chelates almost everything as GH should do, and it is also about half as much as GH and so much better! Cheers!
PS- We just tested Orca makers of Great White, and man that shit is AWESOME!! Try it!! Works better than Great White!!
Bottom line though, a good base like Dynagro Bloom or House & Garden Aqua Flakes or Heavy 16 are all complete base nutrients and will provide a nice clean grow and give the plant its full potential. We do not even need to flush anymore due to being able to use so much less nutrients over all as we never peek 800ppm’s anymore. When you get dialed with the right base nutes you do not need more than that ever. Peace!
Also, when you use a good base line you dont need any additives…we switched to things like Pro Tek for PH up for example, and also Kool Bloom liquid and the powder is about all you need for boosters and finishers to add a little extra punch…also Mag Pro by Dynagro makes an AWESOME booster and will give the needed extra magnesium and sulpher and calcium as well.
Anyhow, those items will provide for all the “extra” additives if you want to use additives that is…:)
Thanks for sharing the information bro!
I have found that GH causes lots of salt buildups and AN’s ratio’s are so far off its pathetic! AN also uses cheap source materials like mammal piss for nitrogen for example.
Out of all we tested so far, Dynagro one part works very well as does House & Garden Aqua Flakes line, Heavy 16 is another great nutrient. All these are way cheaper than AN and way better from the test we did. Rock on bro!
Iv seen great taste off mirical grow lol no joke.
u dont want the branches to snap while hangging u want them to almost snap then go into curing..Your big ass plant hanged longer well good it was 3 to 4 times as big as the rest would need couple days more anyway..If the branches snap before your done drying then theres no curing all the water is already out.Dont want them to snap while hanging/ not till cured for a week.Also cut your fan leafs off and cut the stem in atleast 3 segments.Trim before you hang.peace
count all the times he says ( you know)
Kick ass brother!
