i am using the 3 part GH nutes. The lucas formula changes the makeup a little. apparently this lucas guy (its pretty big, google it for more info) figured out a formula that uses only the Micro and Bloom nutes (plus cal mg). his reasoning with this is that the 2 of those provide all the nutes...

they soaked in 5.5 but only for 2 hours. will try a longer soak next time... But now i got a good question for you... how the heck do i soak the rockwool croutons like that??? I could flood the table and just put them in there or 2 tables, but seems like a pain. wondering if anyone has a...

lucas veg (0-6-10) is the feeding schedule i am trying now. I can post the one i was using but thought about trying the lucas cause it cuts out some N. This happened grow too which i attributed to PH problems in teh root zone but i could flush last time really good and they would be fine for...

i shake my cal mag every feeding but not the GH 3 part nutes. should i be? PH meter gets calibrated once a week. Could be PH issues?? Maybe flush again just for good measure? yeah... doesnt look good. but isnt too bad yet if i catch it now.

yeah.. definitely not doing anything drastic. :) i moved them over to the flower room last night. still on 18/6 and veg feeding but wanted to start getting them used to the room and lights (HPS). lights are on 50% and about 4' off the canopy now and will turn them up and bring the lights down...

lol.. yeah thats what i am sayin!! looking great! Such a difference!! I cannot thank you enough laserbrn!! What a difference. The only thing i am curious about is if you look at the last 2 pics i posted, there is "marbling" in the leaf... is that a cal-mag def? I have seen this happen quite...

pics from tonight. thoughts?

WHOA!!!! Yeah.. that could DEFINITELY be the problem i have been seeing.. cause i have never gone more than 5ml/gal! very interesting!! Going out to tend to the girls now! They are looking great! Will post pics when i am done.

oh wow! sounds good!! Will give that a shot. What would you consider a "full strength" dose of calmag per gal? but yes to answer your question, the calmag was part of the 250ppm.

main stems looking much better actually. there is still purple/red, but you can see its getting better. Will post up pics tonight with close up on some stems. The new growth stems are GREEN though. Still think i am having a PH problem in the cubes, i can see the new growth on a good majority...

wow.. Will throw up some new pics later tonight, but went in last night after they woke up and BOOM... seems like a lot of new growth!!! Totally awesome! one strain still seems dark (too much N) but i think that will go away with the less aggressive feeding schedule.

Have tried, OG, Valley, and Tahoe and i could pull every one AT day 60 and be just fine. Let a couple go to 63, but thats not quite 9 weeks.

and think i am going to adopt a water water feed or maybe water feed water feed schedule.. but we will have to see what they like.

Oh yeah.. was shooting for 200, but it ended up around 250 (but i have RO so that is pure 250 of nutes) :)

Here are some from today.

Wheew... what a crazy couple days. So i ended up going ahead and giving them some water with nutes last night for the first time in almost a week! They definitely needed it as signs we JUST starting to show of some deficiencies (can see in the pics). Today, they are looking great and have a...

Bingo on the PH problems. I would maybe think about flushing first then start fresh with lite nutes. the PH in your soil is off and causing lockouts. plants also look a little dark which could be too much N.. again, this could all be from ph problems not a real deficiency in what you are...

I would post some more pics of the entire plant if possible. Also, what are you growing in? Purple stems could be caused by a lot (lack of P, too much N, stress, just the strain, etc). More info would help. What are your PPM'S going in, what nutes are you using, and most importantly your PH...

Sorry.. super long day yesterday... but will be taking more pics tonight and posting. Ended up not giving them water yesterday cause i had a lot going on and they were ok. Today is the day for sure. Cubes are lite, plants are green... think they are going to love a little bit of nutes...

I do handwater all the way through. Not gottten much algae (actually...about none) once i move to the 5 gal huckets with the croutons thingts go pretty well. Have never tried flooding. Have considered it though
