Nutrient stack, what could I be missing

FlowerPower88 · Jan 25, 2023

I’m growing using coco perlite 70/30. I’m using jacks nutrients for flower, with Bio-Ag Ful power fulvic acid, Roots organics rain wetting agent, GS plant foods liquid kelp extract, grow genius monosilicic acid, and floraflex hypochlorous acid.
Just wondering if I’m hitting all the spots and if not what could be added/removed? Thank you.

Pretty much what I run or have and go back and forth. Watch your ec with the fulvic you don’t need as much nutes. Recharge once a week is good too which also has fulvic and kelp

Thank you. I like my results for sure, but I just want to make sure I leave no stone unturned. Recharge in coco, what is the function, I know in soil it’s making nutrients more available, recharging microbial activity and such, but in coco without all that going on in the medium, what does it do?

They say there’s still microbial action in coco but idk there’s molasses in it to feed them so they probably stick around a bit as long as the medium stays moist. I know myco grows in coco had a mom container solid mycelium once lol. Usually I just use floralicious plus which has fulvic,kelp, bennies and all that stuff

oh yeah, I definitely get results from the mycos

I would assume that the hypochlorous acid would kill microbes. I'd probably use Southern Ag Garden Friendly Fungicide in place of hypochlorous acid when running mycos. I also wonder how the hypochlorous acid interacts with kelp and fulvic acid.

it’s a small amount 1ml per gal, and I definitely saw a difference adding them. The hypochlorous acid is to keep the nutrient reservoir sterile, and I don’t think the micronutrients from the kelp or the chelating effect of the fulvic should be altered by that, but it might be…I’m a n00b

*Sterile* -- free from bacteria or other living microorganisms; totally clean

I've noticed that when using hypochlorous acid along with kelp and fulvic acid, the nutrient solution seems to get lighter in color (similar to what you'd expect bleach to do to a stain). I have no evidence to suggest that anything other than pigment is altered, but it makes me wonder.

Yeah probably should have said I only use the hypo on my automated plants with no organics. All the other stuff on my hand watered

Oh I don’t notice that, but idk if .1ppm of hypochlorous acid is enough to bleach

Should I top-dress less dry ammendments in my organic soil when using Recharge? Because of the fulvic

Fulvic acid is going to be compatible with a living reservoir using Hydroguard. It is not compatible with strong oxidizers like hypochlorous acid (UC Roots, Athena Cleanse) because it creates biofilm when combined.

I had seen this on thc farmer. Bill farthings Ballin on a budget post. He seems extremely knowledgeable. He seems to say hypochlorous acid and fulvic doesn't mix.

This is what he says about bioAg

BioAg Ful-Power is 30ml/gallon. They are the worst offender for paying to ship water. You can tell the Green Planet is cheap and dirty Leonardite extracted with hydroxides from the potassium content. Both are a rip off for people with more dollars than sense

He recommends Mr.fulvic for fulvics Acids.

The recipe hes described is for jacks 321 with a good monosilic acid and fulvics.

Ballin' On a Budget- THE RECIPE

I love fertilizer. I work with big grows down to friends that have a single 400w light. I recommend the same thing to each and every one of them. It is used start to finish, so there's no following confusing feed schedules. A buddy of mine started calling this "The Recipe" because it is cheap...

Pretty much arrived at the conclusion that I’m going to reserve the hypochlorous for my PM regimen and possibly to help flush if needed.
