Fuck that's weird that she's stalling on you but looks so healthy and green I would have no idea what the culprit is.... How often do you change your bulbs?

Ill be the very first to admit everyday is a new wealth of information for me in regards to plant biology and i appreciate ya steering me in the direction of new info.
When you say that Ca bicarbonate is not available, im assuming you are referring to the calcium in my tap water? My analysis that was done shows calcium in amounts of 8.8 mg/l. total hardness coming in at 34 mg/l
What about the 18% Ca in calcium nitrate?
Thanks again

yes generally... Most of the Ca in muncipal tap water is Ca Bicarbonate, good for pH buffering bad for actual plant uptake
If you have any further general questions about plant nutrients, do a search on "fatman" was member on multiple forums(he's got a whole thread dedicated to him at the farm nutrient subforum) before being booted for attitude problems apparently.. He does a pretty good job of breaking it down in a easily digestible format, not so sure how sound some of his findings were, never read in depth just gave it a quick lookover, but leagues ahead of what most growers/nute companies/basic mmj info will tell ya.

Haha smart ass! I don't even know why I asked anyway I don't know shit about Gravitas lolz!
Whitelotus, your ec seems on point.. Other than fucking around with raw base salts. It would be hard to tweak your npk/ca levels. Don't have enough experience with Jacks to tell ya, I would say milky is bang on though, too many people get Ca as a secondary all wrong, secondary is considered that not bc its needed in lower levels, but bc its usually readily available in native soil...
I would start a log of what you're feeding- when, and from run to run how its working, any ticks/hiccups, etc. and ask Str8edge whats up I know hes killin it with Jacks and has pretty good understanding of it, plus he runs the glue pretty regularly, maybe he could give you pointers on why youre stalling out..

I just changed mine after 1.5 years.. If I don't notice any diff I wont be changing them again for a very long time. I don't use ca Never needed it. I only add Silica in veg and only a few x. It's more of a preventative then anything else. Everything else I use is Organic.. I just put a glue in flower. She is in a 20g smartie, Vegged 60 days and trained for a more bushy growth.

Yea, I don't get it either because, of course, it's DHNs Blue Dream that all these guys did and are doing again.
Perhaps a change from '13 - '14?
I dunno but I DO know my nephew had his best outdoor run in '13 w same BD from DHN.
He was quite happy and I have ZERO doubt you and your associates are light years ahead of the kid.

thanks everyone. got some reading to do!
take care and positive vibes

you mean to tell me you have 15ft ceilings and you're not already running gavitas?
the way I look at it every run that i'm using a standard hps instead of a gavita is costing me at very least 1/2# per light per run
do you want a car than gets 15mpg or 30mpg? same car just different mileage.
I personally feel like there is more than enough feedback on them at this point...are there any more huge commercial ops that aren't running them? I haven't seen any recently

So what are the dry yields with HPS & with Gavitas? Not the difference but rather the numbers.
Currently use Large Adjust A wings and get great results, but pretty new to the threads and been hearing about these. Im old school not really in the social mix talking shop if you know what i mean. LOL
