Megacrop

Just checked my mailbox and I had a parcel card inside. Just made it there 15 minutes before the post office closed. Santa delivered my megacrop and pk booster on time for Xmas. I might switch the sativa reservior to megacrop and leave the indicas on Remo to use up the last of it.

Picked mine up today too!
I ordered 750g bud explosion, they sent 250g and 250g cal-mag pro. It's not what I ordered but only $4USD loss in value.

Is the cal-mag pro needed if using megacrop and bud explosion?

On average I use 10gal/ week for flowering and 1-6 gal / week veg. I run perpetual cycle but it isn't 100% dialed in, trying many strains. How long will the amount of nutes I have last me?

The simplicity of this stuff is amazing. I can't offer my results yet but have some hope it works as well as you guys have said.
I mixed mine in a jug for a day before using it to dissolve it ahead of time.
I'm curious about the amounts you used as I am thinking about trying that also. Can you make a 1L concentrate?

Yes you can do that......or pre weigh some into small baggie's or containers.
I'm using what their calculator suggests. I have big res's but it's proportional to the amount your mixing of course.
I've read of guys going with less than suggested as well and they seemed happy.

Some folks premix it in water first a day before or whatever. I have found so far that in less than 10 minutes it seemed basically fully mixed via the Ec meter. So premixing in water doesn't seem to be absolutely necessary. But work's if you want as well.
I'm thinking of just dividing up a bunch of doses and put them in small plastic containers. Reusable and already done when needed. Also stops the crusting of the larger mother lode.
I use 3 different res's so It's kind of a lot of containers.

I'm thinking about premixing 1 scoop in 1L of water in an old Remo jug. I figure that 1 scoop is equivalent to 5gal for regular veg plants. 5gal has 18.927L. So 1000mL/18.927L= 52.83mL/L of solution I would add, or just 50mL/L since my syringe is in 10mL increments. For younger plants I could give 10-20mL/L.

Is there anything wrong with my math?
PS I just smoked some ambrosia from Jordan of the Islands that I grew so I'm pretty high.

20 grams in 5 gals for normal veg. So you can add 20g to a litre of water and then add it to your 5 gal jug of water less the litre your adding.

Just add the 20 grams direct to your 5 gal jug...ph it...ready to use. Dissolves in 10 min or less basically. If you don't use it all it will keep til you need it.

I have a Chem91 strain that would give me a some trouble. The leaves would do the yellow patches in spots on maybe 5% of the leaves. They would die on the edges slowly and eventually the leave was done and would fall off or i'd pull it off. The plant still does pretty good even with this issue.
The MC seems to have fixed this issue whatever it was. I'm glad as it's a very good strain.

So if I wanted to have a large res for my tent, could I have half the tent starting to flower and the other half halfway through flower? Or would I need separate reserviors for each group. (For autopots and blumats)

I was hoping I could have my 8x8 always on 12/12 and just add megacrop and pk booster to top up a single reservior.
Deltanxs on icmag runs 1 massive res for multiple rooms in his ppk grows. He multifeeds at around .6-.8 ec Jack's from veg to end of flower they all get the same shit. His grows are titties so yes it's very possible. When your flowering plants need more food then the veg plants you feed them more often. I can multi feed in coco 8-10 times a day with .4 ec stuff and not see any deficiencies
