I think one of the problem is that you have so many variables . I would order some MegaCrop. I add cal/mg , eps salts , (ro h20) in veg I’m adding there kelp , flower adding the sweet , n booster .

Agreed!
And I also changed my standard soilless mix and I'm thinking it needs a tweak. Probably back off on the calcined clay. That shit works great to raise CEC but there was some mag deficiency early.

Maybe I should just say fuck it and use all that leftover shit on outdoor plants. (non-cannabis)
I usually just throw some chicken shit pellets around but it's not a big deal to run a siphon feeder from a bucket of mixed leftover nute concentrate.
-- edit --
I've already tried megacrop and liked it a lot. The new formula is supposed to be even better!
My PH & PPM meters have been getting a workout. It would be nice to have a standard mix that's complete.

Sorry if it was posted earlier but... what buckets are you using and also what are the disks on top? Haven't seen those before.

Root Master or Hercules Pots
I like them but difficult to transplant out of
FloraFlex Matrix tops .

They are a 3 part unit (all sold separately)
And to make it work properly you need them all.
Water comes out the ring , onto the top, the top uses a pad underneath to hold back pressure and it fils all the holes for even watering . Works good if it’s setup right .
To small of a top, or no pad, the water doesn’t want to go to the edges n will give you lazy roots .

I’m still waiting on lots of pieces, hopefully in a couple months it will be the way I want it.

Rings come apart for cleaning (I like that) 5C41C1EF-6B77-46BB-ADCD-0F1AD69B9860.jpeg A83C7734-F711-4CE8-B890-8B12B70DB9F1.jpeg
Because of no pads (only one has a homemade pad) I’ve had to do some added hand watering to make sure the medium is getting saturated.

This room has been 1 step ahead many back. I posted pics of the completed drain line a couple weeks ago. It had to be removed n redid , all for 2” to chance the pump location

I like the new stuff better ,
I think it just running straight is good, but I have having the extra on hand to tweak as I want .
I have poor water , and very bad in the spring, so I always just use RO, n I’ve always needed cal/mg.

I just took a couple pounds n put it in a gallon jug, cause I don’t like the dust , Could be the new slogan, just add water . Lol

Sorry, smoking my lunch right now .

I still have an unopened 22# and about 5 pounds in a bucket. But I did just get a sample of the new stuff to try out in the clone tent. Do you mix a res? Does the pH stay in check any better

Ya I’ve been mixing right in the res, using a drill n paint mixer . I’m going to setup valves n let the pump do it soon. Just let it recirculate for 5 min should do it .
I never kept any of the old stuff to see how it shifted , just made what was needed . The new stuff in DTW it’s stable, the kelp seems to want to settle out tho, but when I get time I’m going to make my own liquid n I’ll filter out the fines .

I think I’ll order 44# more in 18 days
Heard there might be a 420 sale

If they have a sale I'll probably buy some of the new stuff. Tired of the pH moving between feedings.

Where'd you get your floraflex stuff from? I'm looking for those 7.5-9 inch trays. Fuck this hand watering nonsense.

-----------------------------------------------------

I had condensed the flavours from those images into a flavour and taste list below, but I think it might overcomplicate matters....or rather, Marco's is very thorough and already covers that, so why reinvent the wheel? This is meant to be a quicker version and I figured what better way to describe a taste or flavour than a one liner (e.g. citrus with skunky undertones). Here it is anyway. If you want it in I can put it in, but I think shorter is sweeter atm.
