Jonny5 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Stick 1ml in a litre of water check the ec and go from there, according to AN it performs better than everything else they sell so you wont need any additives with it, good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbal Kint Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Hi mate ,i dont have ec pen , went to buy some fish mix and bio bizz bloom but guy had no bloom in shop, i asked for a good bloom and he gave me that.

Laphroaig Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Just go buy yourself an EC truncheon and a pH pen. Guessing won't cut it, you need the right gear. Peace 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbal Kint Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Laphroaig i grow in compost , do i still need that? And why does it says ph perfect on bottle if you still have to mess with ph? I have no idea on hydro growing,since i got this nutrient i might try coco next grow,saw some mad buddage in that medium but till then my plants are 30days in flower todays , ill take a picture of them before i turn lights on and post it.

Jonny5 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 You need an ec pen otherwise how do you know what your feeding them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laphroaig Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I've never grown in compost, so feel free to take this with a pinch of salt. But my feeling is as soon as you reach for the liquid nutrients, additives and boosters a pH pen and EC truncheon are a given, irrespective of what medium you are growing in. You can supplement compost with all kinds of goodies that'll benefit the plant when potting and then just feed them water without regard for pH and EC, but as soon as you start mixing up liquid feeds you need the right tools.

Guest Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Think theyre hydro nutrients,i dont use myself but would appear to be for coco or hydro etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbal Kint Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 I looked at their site and seem to be good for soil , they have some calculator that says i just add 60ml of both in my 15L watering bucket,and that stands for whole flowering, no changes Not a word about ph pen , dou i see they listed 4 more products i should use in hobbist level. All i wanted was a bloom Anyway here are my girls 30days in flower, i got some fish mix and wanted to mix it with bloom as they seemed hungry but not sure i should mix it with advanced bloom? Temp at cannopy level Headband Lemon with problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbal Kint Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 You can see Satens surounding Lemons that are discolored Saten ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbal Kint Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Worst Lemon After clean up , if it continues like there there will be no leafs in a week or two,just cola sticking. And another Saten in small pot looks fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbal Kint Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 You saw the plants if anyone can give some guidence from here i would apriciate it . I got that Advanced A and B , Fish mix and thats it. My idea was to mix fish mix with that Advanced bloom. Now what do i need more ec and ph pen? Dindt mention till 30days(today)plants were feed with Platinium nutrients which i ran out of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laphroaig Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Well they look really nice to me, whatever you've been doing seems to be working more than okay.... I'm thinking maybe I should just shut up and let you get on with it If it isn't broken, etc. There's always their product info http://www.advancednutrients.com/hydroponics/products/connoisseur/connoisseur_product_information.php Their directions state 4 ml per litre for first 6 weeks of flowering in hydro etc. In which case your 2ml per litre in compost sounds safe to me.

Herbal Kint Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) If everything looked like the Satens in corner i would agree mate.Think low night temps got the best of Lemons , ill have to cut my losses there. I will give them 2ml A and 2ml B next watering and post few pictures of same plants.If they will seems stunned in anyway ill go find some Bio bizz. Thanks for advice guys drop by see how it went , might stick some hydroton under my pots and flod the tent if it goes tits up only thing bothering me is that ec ph thing i dont now how that applys on compost Edited May 6, 2014 by Herbal Kint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
