Does anyone think using Potassium Silicate as ph up could be causing the lockup with +size? I was just curious is someone may have had an experience with this.

Whats the NPK ratio on +size? probably to much P causing lockup if i had to guess.

I have not tried running V+B alone during flower have always used the +size but it looks like it may be causing my lockout issue. I think thats the way to go is to leave the +size out from now on.

I grew with v+ b only for ~ 4 years. Last 2 flowers I started adding +size. Since adding it, I have only experienced a nice increase in bud weight

How much are you using?

Are you starting with RO water, and what's your ppm. If not what is your tap ppm/TDS?

I was told +size is being updated with more goodies and re-released under a different name. It def adds oil and I haven't had any lockout issues using it. 1 gram per gal.

How are you guys using HD feeding in Promix.......
a) weekly
b) feed, feed, water
c) feed, water, feed

I'll be starting out with 2g/gal on some cuts and seedlings in a couple of weeks. I'll probably add 20% - 30% coir for aeration and some diatomaceous earth for pest control/silica to it as well, deciding between MycoGrow and Photosynthesis Plus for my mycos.

Back in the daze I grew a beastly plant in a 5 gallon Home Depot bucket of vermiculite and perlite using MG.... it turned out pretty good, starting wondering how the HD would respond to that type of medium. Found a giant ass bag of it cleaning up the other day that has barely even been used.
 
Can Veg+Bloom RO turn anaerboic in a non-aerated and not-moving reservoir?

Asking this because i never had problems with Maxibloom with the way i mix my nutrients and how i feed. I mix up a gallon of water at a time and feed to my plants so one gallon can feasibly last a week (just sitting on the counter) depending on the stage of growth. Should this be a concern of mine if there are organics in it? I have a feeling the answer is YES. Whereas with Maxibloom because it was all artifical salts it could sit for days unaffected. I also run coco hempys as well so the mix would be sitting in the passive hydro rez in the bottom of the post as well so it is sitting stagant.

I have 100gal Rezys I change max once a week. I recirculate and dn't have problems with water funk. I'm also mixing in tap to balance out the ph. I've seen the same system repeated by others as well. Top shelf all day

Hey BF, I don't know if it will or not but I can tell you how to inhibit it if it does. Just keep your 1 gal jug in your fridge next to your milk. The cold and dark inhibit almost all growth of all forms of life:biggrin:
