I've use age old grow when my plants were clones and I switch to maxsea 16-16-16 when my plants were transfer out side and it's been 2 months already and I'm running out of maxsea 16-16-16. I want to switch back to age old grow for the next few more feeding will it be bad for my plants? I think age old grow is better than maxsea 16-16-16. Age old grow is 1oz per gallon and I use 100 gallons of water and 1 liter of age old grow isn't enough for one feed. How much do you guys use age old grow per gallon of water the recommended dose?

doublejj I saw your older post you got some huge bitches. What did you use with maxsea bloom 3-20-20? It's gonna start to flower in mid august or end of august and I was thinking using maxsea bloom 3-20-20 with molasses, hygrozyme and dyna-gro pro-tekt.

I haven't check my pH because it's outdoor grow I can get the pH right on nutes but after that it's water everyday and pH won't be the same. Last season I pH my nutes to 6.5 and when I check the soil the pH is a little over 7. Can I use Dyna gro protekt all the way through flower or should I stop using it when it starts to flower?

It helps plants fight off pests and mold. I know some guys who use it in flower. I personally only use it in veg as a foliar spray. Makes sure to mix the dyna gro protekt into the water first and then add nutes, molasses, or what have you.

I've only used it once and I will continue using it. Yea I add dyna gro to my water tub first and then add my nutes.

Just make sure to watch that ph bro. That shit will steadily raise your soil ph if not kept in check.

I'll check my soil pH. If it's high peat moss will bring it down right if not what's a good way to bring it down?

Sulfuric acid for quick fix. Other options need time to break down in the soil to be effective.

The thing is the soil probe isn't accurate so I'll check my pH after I mix my nutes and if it's too high I'll just use pH down.

Yeah. Don't fuck with the soil ph without an accurate probe. As long as the solution going into the soil is decent you should be fine. I don't ph shit lol. Too much thinking.

Np. Maxsea is some good stuff man. My plants like it. I mainly use maxsea and molasses. With epsom salt once a month. Plants stay a deep ass green color as long as I dont fuck up lol. I would just water the next couple feedings and then switch back to age old. And then do the same when goi g back to maxsea. I have switched nutrients before with success.
