can someone give me a quick feeding schedule for the GG4 in coco.

got some amazingly dank buds, but they were not massive colas by any means, does she like it hot or more laid back fert wise? anyone who has suggestions like first 2 weeks of 12/12 1.6 ec then down to 1.5 till its time to flush or what ever. what do you find she likes in coco during flowering?

edited to add: i apologize in advance, i know the info is already in the thread, trouble is it's a damn long thread, lol.

I have always feed her no more than 1.3ec since I got her. I'm pretty sure the coco guys are doing the same.

how would you say she yields with ec 1.3 in flowering, does she make 1 gpw with that ec?

i guess you are doing soil though right? can't really compare the ec level in earth and coco.

so you vegged them how long and what ec? if i might ask?
where they already used to high food levels from the mums?

my plants only get 10 days of veg phase, 7 to 10 days to root my 5 by 5cm rw cube, then max 3 days of veg on the coco slabs set up with the 600s. then i go to 12/12. normally by that time i only managed to build up to about 1.5 ec, normally i will give them up to 1.8 by the end of week 2 or 3 of 12/12, then cut it back to 1.6 till it's time to flush, or when i do a maintenance flush in between. thats been getting me good yields with a combo of strains growing together, but the GG4 didn't flourish in terms of bud size under that schedule. don't get me wrong, it's a decent size and the smell and resin is fantastic. just wondering if she can yield more potentially.

thanks for the feedback guys, much appreciated. now that i finally have this fine lady, iwant to know how she likes to be tickled and where/when :D

I always got great yields for GG#4. I do perpetual with many different verities. My largest yield from a single plant was 12oz with a 60 days veg. I was using 1kw hps at the time. Most of the guys here are doing coco. I like soil. I don't know any that feed gg#4 above 1.3ec. They all agree she is a light feeder. If ur doing outdoor it will be different

This was here in early flower. 1.3ec

cheers HH,

have had strains before that did the best with really low ec levels, so i will try out the lower top ec next run. got some chocolope and stardawg in there too, will be interesting to see how they do with the lower ec levels.

I don't know how stormy does it but I've heard she performs well at high ec's but every time I go over 1.3 after week 2 they lock out on me so I do 1.6 the first 2 weeks and 1.2 to finish.

something noone else mentioned is that she likes a little extra magnesium in both veg & flower .
but yeah i wouldn't go any higher than 1.2 or 1.3 after the budset starts . during transition you can go slightly higher to help keep her green .

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide,
No escape from reality.

Open your eyes,
Look up to the skies and see,
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low,
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me.

I always fed her low also but since I switched to quantum boards in veg I have been feeding at 1.8ec in coco and I had to check the label to be sure she was gg. She is growing faster than she has in the 6 years I have had her. I have bumped up to 2.2 in flower and shit is exploding. Not sure why but under these lights everything is turning into a pig.

Since I started using CMH im noticing way to early yellowing on my all girls vs HPS. The next few plants going it will get 1.5ec.
