Soul Survivor Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 (edited) sorry if this has already been stated, just need an answer for defo. When I go in to flower and start tointroduce the nutes, is it a good idea to start both grow and bloom at .5ml per litre. And then slowly increase them at the next watering like 1ml grow, 1ml bloom, and the next watering after that 1ml grow, 1.5ml bloom and so on untill i get to about week 5/6 where i will be giving them 1-2ml grow and 3ml bloom, and about week7 decrease the bloom and increase grow slightly cheers Edited November 5, 2009 by Soul Survivor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
net2-3 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Good chart Green Ninja, only things I'd like to add are I don't think it's wise to be so prescriptive with the Epsom salts, they should only be used if the plants show indications of Mg deficiency, secondly OT1 advises against using perlite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agito Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 big steve ec meters are useless with organics as they only really measure chemical salts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ping pang Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 really informative thread im currently using ot1 guide to a tea and they look like theyre loving it no signs over doing it all, having fun in the sun, maybe they want more, but will i give it em? will i fuck , when feeding the epsom salts it says heaped table spoon to 10 litres, i only have 2 litre bottles to mix my nutes, so if i wanted to break down the amount of epsom salts to say per 1 litre, would it be heaped table spoon of epsom salts onto a some kitchen scales then divide the amount by 10 giving me the amount i need for 1 litre? oh and what does heaped mean? does that mean big heap on spoon like a mountain or heaped as in level if that even makes any fuckin sense :wink: ping pang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluePixie Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Yes mate - just divide up the amount by 10 to get a per litre dosage. I'd suggest dissolving the epsoms in a little hot water from the kettle then chucking that in with the rest of the water/feed. Personally I prefer to give them a lower dose, but twice once at day 10 or so of flower, once at day 20 or so. Definately don't give them any more than what's been recommended, epsoms is easy to overdo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrFreaky Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Thanks again for the info Oldtimer. Just to confirm then, would that mean that you should never need to feed during Vegging? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbal Kint Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 It would mean that compost should feed your plant s trough veg. And from day 1 of flower you start with 1ml grow 1 ml bloom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradJJ Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Maybe someone with a higher level of expertise should make a FAQ on this and get it stickied Well don't fancy reading 17 pages, helpful as it will be From what i've read so far, a lot of question answered!

moodster Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 so if i increase my grow to 2ml and my bloom to 1ml alitre at the end of flower do i still need to flush or not thanks everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 I stop using the bloom roughly 2 weeks before the chop moodster and usually end up finishing on 1ml grow or just water for last few days if the plant is still nice and green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
