Watch that 10-52-10 like I said. The 15-30-15 is fine, in fact anything is fine, until it starts causing problems. High P foods induce stretch and lockout very important minerals, mainly the micros, which causes yellowing leaves, chlorosis, and worst case premature leaf drop.
Right, well I'm using his charts to support a conclusion that differs from the one he presents. So in fact, I'm using his information to draw my own conclusions, and those conclusions lead me away from his product line.
That explains alot, I made a mistake with a few plants in my current grow and dosed them with too much P. Experienced all of the symptoms you described. The 10-52-10 I dose once at half strength when the plants root system is developing, then I move to the 30-10-10 or 20-20-20 into flower depending in the needs of the plant. My foilage is so much greener and growth is nearly twice that of the 3 part I was using that cost me $160 bucks. Much easier to mix and handle complete dry ferts as well, nice to spend half the time achieving much better results! Kudos to ya UB! Love your methods!
You've just made my point, it's a credibility issue with this jerk, a matter of trust which has been breached every which way but Sunday regarding the company's MO. Not singling you out, you and I are singing from the same sheet of music. I appreciate your thread and time.
Glad it worked out for you. BTW fellas, I do not practice brand loyalty with any of this stuff, and that includes HID hoods, timers, potting mediums, etc.
Makes perfect sense, I think brand loyalty is a big part of what generates all the hype and so called marijuana voodoo . Everyone wants to make a buck and it makes the whole game extremely difficult for people who just want to simply grow well and not have to break the bank in the process.
Bahaha! so true, MJ doesn't need unicorn poop to grow good!It's not just the brand loyalty, but places like AN along with a lot of internet myth yammering on about mj specific nutes.
MJ has gone from just being a flowering plant to something like a unicorn that can only eat oats that have been fertilized with elf shit and apples from the original tree.
Thank God, when I started growing way back when, all I had was my various Peters that I used for my orchids and ferns. None of these other lines were around then and I still grew some very dank weed.
So now, when I see all this "you need _____ and ___ and ___ or you will never have a good crop", I know it's just blatant bullshit and hype.
The effects might be magical, but the plants needs aren't.

dude, UB didn't compare Big Mike to Hitler. He compared Hitler to a "genius" and probably meant "crazy genius".Look UB, we all know you don't like AN and that you think their products are crap. But comparing Big Mike to Hitler?
That's a little much, isn't it?
I like it better when you back up your arguments with proof. That seems legit to me, and like something I would actually listen to. When it comes to sort of calling names (and really, Hitler was much worse than anyone...that's an awful comparisons), that's when I check out.
You're a smarter guy than that UB, tell us the facts, back em up, and then we can all be wowed by your excellence.
Name calling? That's for 12 year olds.
That's great new! Finally, I can stop my search for unicorn poo!
Nitrogen is important throughout the life of the plant. Don't stop feeding it when it needs it most (the last 3-4 weeks of flower).
Dat hype is so ripe, it smells of tripe.
I know we're on the same page...I just don't give a hoot about him or his company. He came up with some noteworthy information but failed to understand it properly (or chose to not understand it properly, but that may be giving him too much credit).
If you smelling ammonia, you may be going too heavy on the ammoniacal N sources that you're using. I've done it with blood meal.
