Just a note from earlier.Ok, english isn't my mother tongue so I haven't even heard the name kelp before..
Nah, I deal with college kids all the time.....I got ya! YES = keep the PK in......IF, you abso-fucking-lutely HAVE to do some kinda "flush".......(blaaa)......dump and refill with straight water for the last 24-72 hrs only!!!Thanks Doctor W. ,,,,Now this batch what I have in hydro is getting ready a bit by bit....I was already counting that it is from the alleged flowering time 60-70 days ready on the 15. but realized from posts where you and other guys where talking that the flip isn't the staring point yet for counting flowering ,instead it is when the stretching ends,I need to wait at least extra 10-14 days more + the thrichomes looks a way too clear yet..
Anyway my question is for the end time feeding,,in this I did the slow build up with the PK 13/14(0.25-1.5 ml/1L.water, for like 5-6 weeks + there is some amount left in the tank also basic nutes,,,been keeping the EC around 1.5 and now been lowering it to 1.4 constantly adding just water and keeping the PH in check...nugs look great but I wonder should I consider pump all the PK away and just put new water and just basic nutes for the end,,,,there is around 3 weeks to the (new discovered ending time)
Actually in the short 7-10 days only of PK 13/14 scedule of a feeding ,this is when it' finally added /3 weeks before harvesting) so might be good to keep the PK still in reservoir for some time and then just add basic nutes,,,now because the EC is been going just a bit up by time I'we been compensating with just adding water....sorry bit messy mail not enough clarity but I hope it made some sense...
For a grower that been doing this a long ass time i say whats the deal with bro science flushing bullshit? Flushing is nonsense. If you knew where this bullshit started....the bullshit theory behind it...how its changed over the years into more bullshit....you would realize.....its bullshit. I cant believe this myth has taken off to be gospel over the years. Growers cutting out the nutrients and food cannabis needs for plump juicy buds rite at a critical time. At least taper the ppm down. People dont blast your plants with just water a week or two before harvest....please? Flushing....what utter bullshit.Whats this anti flush movement? Thought fresh water for a week b4 harvest or your smoking nutes ?
Buy that bottle of Nitrozyme from Growth Tech/HDI bro....trust me. Follow the directions for a foliar spray mixed with some humic/fulvic acid and a wetting agent. Spray your vegging plants with it this once every 5-7 days.....its rocket fuel man. Cytokinins and auxins make your plants bushy like youve never seen. Makes roots explode too. This additive will translate to a bigger and higher quality harvest down the road. I guarantee this. If you keep them nice and healthy and thriving....Nitrozime will put your crop totally over the edge. No joke.I found one product here what is seaweed , but I am not sure if it is kelp...and that is sold in a regular gardening shop as a extract
for potted plants. Usually I'we heard that the regular extract and fertilizers which are not really meant for anything like pot have been
not giving good results more problems ...because it is a extract (not shure if kelp)..it might not kill the plants but it still is gambling...
Ou jeah, I forgot there is the Biobizz Alg A Mic...is that proper kelp seaweed..?..and then there is Bionova Algmix...either ain't cheap..
but any regular and cheap kelp is not to be found here..at least I haven't found any yet....I rather buy those from the grow shop than go and do crazy experiments with gardening shop products...because I can't find anybody who has used that gardening seaweed brand ,for pot over here etc.
And yep we have Nitrozyme from Growth Technology also....
So at least 3 seaweed products ..probably even more at grow shops....but kelp seaweed for chop change don't know where to get...
Whats this anti flush movement? Thought fresh water for a week b4 harvest or your smoking nutes ?
It is a long story,,about how buds need to get nutes very much close to the end of developing and how the actual buds don't store nutes ...if you flush too long and too early ,you will loose in yields ...it's ok to flush 2-4 days but not really longer....this is hydroponics culture..
there is more science behind it but that is the short version..of the hypothesis...maybe Dr. Who can enlighten you more...or google the
underground movement who supports this direction....there is a secret hand shake and shitt ,its all very cloaks and daggers you know..
Nitrozyme is a kelp extract. Very concentrated ascophylum nodosum is the actual name. Super high in hormones that cannabis responds extremely well to.Yaah, we have it at my favorite grow shop ...I am very interested...if I run in to the kelp stuff I will get it too for shure, but this will sitting right there on the shelf when I walk inn ,,,so it is an easy pick...it probably goes nicely with the TML since I have quite few bottles of it too...
