wow this thread is crazy old but i agree 100%; there is way to much focus on nutes and additives when people really need to place there focus on the plants needs (reading the plants) and using alot less nutes. its actually quite amazing how little these plants need to produce healthy yields. i personally use GH 3 part nutes b/c they last forever even if you make a nute solution you can store it indefinately (as long as its nutes only with nothing natural/organic added) and b/c they were developed some 30 yrs ago for nasa to meet all of a plants needs; back before hydro nute companies and hydro shops realized they could make big bucks off of "us" (especially newbies) through wise marketing tactics. seriously it is a bunch of bullshit; theres not one nute maker that has a feeding schedule with less than 5 products at the least. i think feel that if got into this hobby now instead of when i did i would be detered from it b/c of all the confusion and misleading information. great thread fade to black!so as i was saying...
it's all bullshit. you have to do this and you have to do that. why are the seed banks doing such extensive breeding if we control the outcome? i think the more you try to help it along, the more you actually hurt it. maybe indoors things are slightly different. topping. that's about it. indoors you are limited on height and width, therefore topping and/or training a plant can help increase growth and yield. but other that that i feel all you need is to provide a comfortable environment and regular feedings of organic nutes. this plant has been here for a lot longer than we've been growing it. i think trying new things is fun. good to learn all we can. but when it comes down to it this plant has just a few basic needs. like we all say "it is just a weed". but we are fed all this bullshit. i blame hightimes for a lot of it. they are paid to advertise products. the more products that are sold the more money the companies have to spend on adds. notice they won't say add nitrogen. they always name a brand to use. they get us to think we will grow "Super Buds" with this crap. someone pointed out their prices index last night. i received the Oct hightimes about 10 days ago. the price index says prices dipped $32 from Sept. and slid to it's lowest point since July. WHAT THE FUCK???????? it's still August.
it's all bullshit. i have a lot more........

hey fade what made you think you needed cal-mag? did you test your water & soil first?
every once in a while, i listen to people.
it didn't hurt anything, but it smells funny. i was having issues indoors and everyone kept telling me i needed cal mag. it didn't fix my problem. turned out being my sulphur burner. i was running it too long and it was leaving spots on my leaves. i got it figured out now.
every now and then i throw some to my plants, just to use up this jug.
i saw your other post, i wasn't ignoring you.
merry christmas, my friend. i wish you and yours ALL the best.

hey fdd..I am sure you've mentioned before so I apologize for not reading some of your 40k posts and finding it for myself.. but do you use tap, R/O, or rain...etc water??
edit: I ask because I use R/O and many people seem to think it's necessary. I thought I saw a cal deficiency in my girls so I added it once. I'm just not sure if I feel comfortable using it. Doesn't the GH Flora 3-part contain enough calcium, magnesium, and other elements?
