My veg tent gets 1 tbsp-3 cups of 2600 depending on size and stage even more If there behind I give my flowering plants 5-6 cups of 2600-2700 (genitc dependent) every day per plant, or 10 maybe even 12 in early mid flower when I'm doing every other day. And at the high end of that amount if I buffer with Gm in veg and transition, or buffer with GM and Herk during flower ,or if its tea day. When I am feeding every other day I buffer my coco often and have to go big with the food. I feed every thing about the same ppms from seed to flower its all about how much 2600ppm I am giving compared to my Buffer mix I am giving. So a seedling would get saturated with the buffer then maybe just a 1-tbsp of the food mix. Moving on from the seedling, If you running new genetic Its good to throw 3- 4 -5 tbsp DD in that mix to fill that number until you target how much MM GM you can get in there. Most plants can tolerate a ton of DD and its a coco necessity for most genetics but i can say I had a pheno of silver kush that did not need much DD ,less than a tbsp. Remember Im talking non bufferd coco here not soil. Giving up to 10-12 cups 2600-2700 ppm under 315w cmh IDK maybe
@bubba73 would have to answer that never herd of anything close to that in soil indoors. That's important I don't want to mess someone up and they go and give a gallon at 2600ppms to a small plant in coco or soil. I defiantly don't recommend my way in soil as you don't need the ph buffer in soil. My way will not give people The perfect photogenic plant, It will only give plenty of tight ,encrusted, photogenic buds without having to feed daily in coco. I recommend as many every day feedings during stretch as you can to get every thing a fukn green as you can while its easy. 3-4-5-6-7 Tbsp AA ,2-3-4-5 tbsp DD .Get that mother green green green and and start bombarding that girl with photons. Keep the AA up through flower until the plant starts to slow then start dropping fast . Remember this is for non bufferd coco because I believe you will find it hard to fade in soil if you run that much AA that late. Another reminder that coco and soil are way different even soil with coco functions nothing like pure coco most importantly completely different cacheion exchange capacity second if you dry your coco in flower with Nectar your in for double troubles due to a billion dead bacteria acidifying your coco, there water retention is different and unlike soil you cant get away with slurry's of 390 without consequences manifesting a few days later . If you go in with a soil mindset or think your coco infused soil works like coco your coming out scratching your head. If you plant is at 500 in coco and your light is close you might have less than two hours to problems. Another huge mistake i made as a new grower was to make little mistakes in coco and forget about it, then 24 to 48 hours the damage would manifest and I would instantly flush (huge coco nono) thinking I overfed the night before and leave my plant for 24 hours. NO NO NO NO NO . Never flush or tea your coco and not feed very soon (30 mins). You have got to remember you feeding mistakes and wate for the problem. I know you all have heard when in doubt flush it out. NO NO NO NO When in doubt in coco fkn Slurry. Watch the color of you tips consistently in coco. Your tips will yellow and green very quickly in coco (1-2hours) if you done something write or wrong . Before you feed your plants take a pic of the angle of the leaves . In coco your leaves will ever so slightly start to either claw or pray in as little as 20 Mins after feed or flush. Be warned sometimes if you put in a mix of food that is phd to far off the coco range but still in range for the plants you will get a temporary claw until things even out . Its dose'nt cause any problems and the plant is back to prayer in a few hours. The stronger your lights the quicker this all happens. Holy shit Im done for today.
