Well I was able to get my old stuff, thought the company was only selling wholesale but I called and they mixed me up a batch. As for the MC, I have had major issues this run, which is probably my fault, but never had them in the past. As for cost my regular stuff is cheap as chips with no shipping or currency cost .

What were the issues you had?

No roots, green algae, nitrogen uptake seemed to be an issue but I’ve ran old faithful and still having some issues so it’s for the most part me

As I mentioned in another thread, I had issues with MC as well.

Everything was going great in veg and for the first 2 or 3 weeks of flowering, aside from the constant PH fluctuations. I'm used to my PH staying pretty rock solid. MC was all over the place - up one day, down the next. Kinda odd. Whatever - did the daily adjustments to keep it in range.

By mid-flower, it seemed that my girls weren't stacking as much weight as they generally do, but that's sometimes difficult to judge with simple observation. The last couple weeks of flowering was the real heart breaker. I'm used to 8 full size girls drinking between 3 to 5 gallons per day. With MC, they were using about 2 gallons a day, and I knew that was going to translate to diminished returns.

In the end, a room that generally produces 2.5 to 3 pounds per harvest clocked in at just over a pound. Had to cancel an upcoming Nicaragua trip. Oh well. Lesson learned - back to my old formula. Based on some of the pics I had seen, I really hoped that MC was gonna perform for me.

* Ebb & Flow, LECA, RO Water

Same exact thing happened to me I was really happy with veg late flower everything fell apart I switched back to my old nutes and hopefully saved half the harvest. I'm using Coco I would never flower with this stuff again.

So u guys think I should switch to a different formula for flower or midway thru flower? Or maybe just some GH Koolbloom 0-10-10 with the MC?

this is disappointing.

Yeah, not sure if the MC rep was feeding us fake grow links or what.

I didn't get close to the results of the pics I saw online.

I'm super stoked that I had to cancel a shorty vacation based on my decision to run this shit.

Just got my “free” sample and no it’s not really that cheap at all in Canada lol. Shipping was $10 for 250 grams . I will look at a bigger quantity but still thinking it’s gonna be on point with other higher end lines . Not the companies fault btw .

One big bag to Canada is cheap man ,can't really remember price little over $100 bucks ,probably last close to a year depending on what you got going on ,usually cost me couple hundred a month for nutes in Canada,just saying cheers bro

NGA · Apr 24, 2018

Yee guys need to learn how to grow man,I've grown for for ever with all nutes only difference is price plain and simple keep trying I guess ,no problem with MEGA CROP just people don't have a clue what there doin ,growing is way easy ,most growers keep throwing all kinds of additives at there plants ,which is crazy,you guys should try growing with just plain nutes and go from there ,learn

Ive personally had great results with it. Ive documented multiple grows in my thread using only MegaCrop, pH adjusted tap water and H2o2 in a flood and drain system. Currently running Fruity Pebbles OG @ 15 days 12/12.

I guess it depends on scale and method. I’m not sure about pricing but converted to US $ I thought it was more? Now I’m buying 2 gallon jugs of aqua flake knock off for 40 that last me a year (8 months) then I’m outside with only compost so maybe if I was full time indoors it may be about the same

I've been growing successfully indoors for over 20 years. The sentence in my post in which I mention my usual totals being triple what I got with MC should have been a big tip off.

You need to learn to quit making assumptions about people you don't know shit about.

I follow the feed chart on the site. Heres what I follow for mixing per gallon. I run a 10 gal res so I multiply this by 10 for full res amounts.
The last week 2 wks of flower I mix my res as suggested, then I taper off with just fresh water top offs til harvest on a 8 wk run.

Are you using any additives in flower? Or just megacrop and h2o2? Also, are you running a chiller?

No chiller, but I have started using Humboldt's Ginormous 0-18-16 in mid-late bloom on my last cpl grows with MC. The Fruity Pebbles grow pictured above are just MegaCrop so far but I will start using boosters in a few wks.

I did complete a few grows on just MC alone though with great results. If growing under COB/LED's you might want to suppplement with cal/mag. I showed a slight mag deficiency on my last grow under cob lighting and it was remedied quickly with a little cal/mag.

Thank you! I always have cal mag on hand anyway, but I’ll grab a bit of pk boost in case things start turning yellow. And I’m running hps right now but I’ll be switching to cobs once all my parts are in.
