Started using the HD on my SFV x Stardawg at day 21 she's at day 46 now. I've been topdressing lightly with ewc and feeding 1tsp HD, that comes out around 820ppm, with the Photosynthesis Plus that I add to the water first has things around 950ppm, the pH still stays at 5.9 with or w/o the Photo +. Smells are just as good as my organic runs!!

I had a mag def going before I started using the HD, I treated that with an Epsom foliar and figured the cal/mag in the ferts would carry me over, wondering if I should stop feeding altogether after this week or keep feeding her lightly till harvest? Going 65 days I wanna give her atleast a two week to flush or is a one week flush cool? I have most of my veggers on HD and Golden Tree now, some are in coco while others are in promix, all are doing great. The promix plants are feed, feed, water the coco plants get a little more runoff and are fed every time but every 3rd feed is at 1/4 to 1/2 strength.

Seems like they are finishing faster than what I am used to.

Haven't seen any new pistals since last week, normally I have a few all the way 'till then end.

HD and PUSH take at least 10 days off my flower schedule. Pumping them full of water is a good way to get her fat and ripe. I always top off my Rez with just water going into the 7th week and the recirculating nute solution has plenty of goods to finish them off prime. Saves a shit ton of water too
 
Calmag with veg+bloom

Calmag with veg+bloom

So i started useing Veg+bloom clean version for RO at 1tsp a gallon and was told not to use calmag and use enough tap water to make my ro water 50ppms i Dont like The sound of it tried it any way and the plants are starting to go deficient calmag . Any advice would be greatly appreciated Thanks

its strain dependant Hungrey , some strains will need the extra CalMag & some won't . i use it in veg all the time now , just to be safe , a low dose of 2ml per gallon seems to be the sweet spot to keep Cal & Mag defs at bay . if its a known CalMag hog like some of Bogs strains , i'll keep using the CalMag up untill the stretch is over in flower .
i also use RO water & RO formula V&B . my PH stays steadier (less adjusting in a rez ) when i use plain 0 water than if it has any ppms to it .

Ditto this... My RO water needs no adjustment and stays very steady for days, creeping up very slightly but that's a good thing! Maybe .2 points in 4 days or so? I'm at 4.75grams per gallon of the V&B RO and plants have never been happier. That being said, I use maxi grow for vegging and first week of bloom. Don't like the V&B for veg.
 
Yea im trying to avoid useing tap our water has been caught a few times with jet fuel in it im gona try to figure it out if not then im going back to flora nova but ill utilize the +life and +Size Thanks Everyone for Assistance!!!

50/50 ro/tap has long been advised for slight calmag deficiencies


True ! & it works , but then my PH has to be adjusted daily , & thats just impossible for me certain times of the year . i'm just not here enough . so the CalMag keeps the girls happy instead .

You just have to raise your EC. With tap aded back for pH for sure .2.3EC higher to get that solid green. RO is like 2EC for really high light, 1.3EC for small guys under t5s, 2EC for the 315 ceramic lamps. COCO with HD. I don't think they get a whole lot healthier then what I'm seeing.
 
I Think ive fixed the problom 1ml of calmag per gallon fixed it i was wondering if anyone uses any carbs during flower with V+B Thanks

i like 2 weeks minimum of plain water feeds . some get 3 weeks , depending on how fast they fade . theres plenty of nutes in the coco for those 2 weeks for the plants to feed on & fatten up .

I keep forgetting to ask how, or whether, to use +Life with Hydro?

They sent me a few samples

i found sandy residue in my rez's when i tried both of them , so if you can deal with that , then try it . My OCD wouldn't allow me to keep using it , i have to have a clean rez or i'm dumping & cleaning every couple days lol , so i stopped :biggrin:

Rives & a couple others use the blumats , so i don't see why not . RO formula is the cleanest one i've seen from HR .
