if you understand the link abit ....... Basically you've got two choices

bennies

or

h²0² , chlorine etc etc .... Other non- organic products.



choose the bennies and you'll get a better smoke ( ask all the 50-60 year old smokers on the site )........ And i think ( not sure ) but you cant over do them , or kill your plants if you give them too much ..... Unlike non- organic ( not bennies ) products....... So no ppm or ph issues with bennies

are you getting an understanding of how important the roots and bacteria is?

the roots are everything in hydroponics they need to be healthy and clean :)

the bennies will do all the work for you don't worry about a thing.

Lucas Formula - GH Micro/Bloom 8/16 CaMG ?? just follow the recipe. That is all you need especially if you go from clone to flower right away. You don't need to add anything else and you will be more than happy. After you do that a few times if you want to mess with the formula a little definitely do... but realize that people use the lucas formula because it works ... really really well.

i think you'll find many growers disagreeing with you there mister .

whats going to kill all the bad bacteria?

the opition in hydroponics is .... Styrile or bennies


not syrile v bennies v nothing

people who use nothing useally have another choline in there tap water to become sterile .

this leads people to believe they don't need ..... They don't realise its the tap water which is killing them .


no bennies or no sterile solution is NOT recommended

Hello,

I will be using the Lucas Formula with maxibloom dry nutes.

7g per gallon.

Now seeing as PPM is supposed to go up how would I accomidate for this?
Adding more maxi every week once res is changed to accomidate for more PPM?

Any good PPM Sched I should go by as I am doing a 60 plant SoG from clones.

Help appriciated.

Not quite sure.

I will be flowering immediatly after plants have good roots.

Need a good sched by PPM per week for about an 8 week harvest.


From my Research would this work?

Start at 800

End up at 1,200 PPM and last weeek flush?

If not give me a beter chanrt.
I use maxibloom in a aero system for veg I stick around 700 to 800 ppm, in flower in stay no less then 1100 to 1200ppm. Idk how y’all grow anything good at lower ppm! GH has a Ppm chart online too.

Tap water does not and I repeat does not kill your plants. Idk what kind of city water you got it. I’m calling b.s. on your comment

As mentioned, you're responding to an old af post.

Also, he wasn't talking about tap water killing your plants. Context is important.
