Might be a bit difficult coz i generally grow multi strain that swell at different points and all get fed from same tank

Close enough is good enough in that scenario. Just start with mpk as soon as bud development starts. Than boost k once you get some decent buds set on most plants. Personally i give them a few foliar hits with potassium citrate (actually nts k-rich). it’s clear so no staining and i generally only need 2-3 sprays over 2 weeks (I don’t spray last week of flower only rootzone feeds), with foliar you might be able to target specific plants as they need it.

Just remember when switching that mpk is more like 13/6 pk not 13/14 so might need to add some potassium back in at late flower (last 2-3 weeks) to help With that swell. Don’t want to hit the k too early but.

Any recomendations on potassium them.

See few blokes are havin trouble with the usual seed banks.
Any one on here used lgm recently an gottwn seeds to their grandmas frnt door,
I went threw bonza last time (got order within 2 weeks an near 100% germ rate) cause i knew nothing about the good banks an crap. Only askin cause i think bonza is aus bank for lgm

Might try using mpk until its time to start boosting k and then switch back to my normal pk13/14 for the rest. Foliar is a bit of a pain in my room cant reach up the back effectively even with a sprayer thats got a long hose

Don’t need it with megacrop. It’s got plenty of potassium. The potassium level is it’s only real downside actually but it’s easy to work around.

Only way I’d add calcium is via foliar spray in the last few weeks. That might not be an option down your way with the humidity in flower, I’d be smashing them as hard as you can with foliar calcium in veg though to build cell wall strength which will help fight off bud rot.

Or just add some potassium sulphate, silicate or chloride. Don’t have much experience with potassium chloride (don’t really need to boost my k levels with mega) but k sulphate is super cheap and available

Yeah I’ve spent some time experimenting with different additives and shit with mega, been using it since it came out. Obviously every grow is different but with some basic starting numbers you start to be able to see what the plants do and don’t like. Even just growing with mega on its own yields good results, boosting a few things just ups it that little extra.

Wasnt judgin by the flags or skippy mate.
Wanted to contact bonza but the email and everything was linked to ILGM. An in there reply email they said that they ship from within our borders take it as ya want i guess. No doubt its just a marketin skeem to convince aussies that there aus based.
More to the point tho is i wanted to know if anyone had recieved seeds from ILGM becuase the usual banks arnt making it all the way threw...

Frosty flowers is based in melbourne. Seaford is where my shipment of stardawg and lemon pie came. Took 7 odd days and Im in Melbourne too. I've been contacting boutique growers/breeders in the states Canada and UK. It will be easier to get seeds direct from them without the red flags.

It's not trouble with the usual seed banks ...All deliveries are getting to Aust in rereasonable time it's when they get here most come thru Melb unless you live in Sydney so Melb feeds obviously Victoria south Aust Tasmania etc
Everything stalls in Melbourne the moment due to covid 19
I have ordered from 5 seed banks 4 tracking one non tracking and the 4 parcels are all in Melbourne saying it's on its way but there will be delays
Seed banks :
Seedsmans
Attitude
Msn
Haze I.o
And another yank one I can't remember
If ppl can't wait on delays once they here in Aust then don't order
The seed banks are doing there bit 100%
