    Bigger yields

    A plant that is given more time to adjust to a larger pot will grow larger during flower and subsequently yield more than a plant that had a limited amount of time to adjust to the larger pot. You're basically talking about the difference between a 5 week veg vs an 8 week veg. Bigger plants...

    Bigger yields

    With any organic soil, you've got to make sure that you've got enough juice to last the entire duration of the grow, and finding that balance can be hard. Contrary to what many may say, I don't think organics are that easy. Growing in something like happy frog with a compete plant food like...

    Bigger yields

    Concentrate on growing healthy plants. The yields will come. To that, you could be given the best of everything in this hobby and your level of experience would be why your grow would still kinda suck. To answer your question above: plants food brands don't make a difference, it's the NPK...

    Mega Crop vs Dyna-Gro comparison grow

    I tried mixing it in my reservoir and while it did eventually mix, for me it took longer and required more effort as compared to a bucket. It's not just MegaCrop, it's any food in hydro with a higher dose of N than needed. I've grown with DG's Grow (7-9-5) and their Foliage Pro (9-3-6) all...

    Mega Crop vs Dyna-Gro comparison grow

    I think some of the Mega Crop crew would know. It's the 'balls' part of the food. I think that's calcium nitrate maybe? It just takes some minutes to fully dissolve.

    Mega Crop vs Dyna-Gro comparison grow

    I can post a report but in my experience the quality of the flowers is a function of plant health and if you have healthy plants at harvest then that's about as good as it gets, regardless of what you've use to get there. Flavor can change a bit I guess? I vape out of a volcano so everything...

    Mega Crop vs Dyna-Gro comparison grow

    We're at exactly 9 weeks today and I'll likely start chopping away tomorrow. I'm going to do a final wrap up once yield numbers are in but at this point I can comment on a few things. Overall I didn't love working with Mega Crop. It's a complete dry food that is just kind of dusty and dirty...

    Are we using much, MUCH too much nutrients?

    They're growing in soil so in a sense they are feeding with every watering.

    Mega Crop vs Dyna-Gro comparison grow

    The only 'issue' with using FP in a coco and perlite blend is that in terms of watering frequency you're getting close to hydro and higher doses of N than needed tend to grow leafier, branchier plants. IMO, that's what we're seeing here with mega crop. If you know what you're doing you can...

    Mega Crop vs Dyna-Gro comparison grow

    I haven't grown with that exact blend so I can't tell you exactly what to do. That being said, if you're feeding with say 100% bloom during flower at a reasonable EC and your plants are starting to yellow then it's clear that the plants need more N. Personally I'd go with Foliage pro from...

    Do you add anything to it during flower?

    Mega Crop vs Dyna-Gro comparison grow

    Nah, they started out about a foot taller. Maybe not quite a foot but they were bigger than the DG gals.

    Mega Crop vs Dyna-Gro comparison grow

    DynaGro Day 49 It's kinda hard to compare these two trays to one another as the MC plants got about a foot taller than the DG plants. Even then, I think the 'visual yield' of the DG tray looks greater than the MC tray. In terms of 'visual quality' they seem similar enough. I do think the...

    Mega Crop vs Dyna-Gro comparison grow

    Day 49 These pictures were taken a few days ago on day 49. Plant health looks great, growth is fine, and branches are starting to snap. Last week I had a couple colas hanging down between the wall and the back of the tray that I had to repair. You can kind of see their indentation on the...
