good, not too worried about those.
The most difficult parts are balancing Sulfur/Calcium.

hey mate, what is the 15kg nutrient you buy for $60?
Yes, we are planning on opening up warehouses shipping within Canada (probably based in Ontario), so shipping will be much quicker and less expensive.
Plant prod MJ
grow 12 8 28
Bloom 10 30 20
Finisher 4 31 37
Boost 15 30 15
They range from 60 to 70$ cad for 15kg
This is what most commercial growers use in Canada at the moment but I would defenetly switch over to greenleaf megacrop even if it's more expensive...easier than buying additives for amino, kelp, chitosan and b vitamins...

OH, thanks for the info links. Yeah, I have heard of that company, they sell in states too. However I wasn't aware of their new "MJ" line. I studied it over, and its not too impressive. Probably 1 step up from Miracle Grow, but their based (both Bloom and Veg) have 0 Calcium at all. So, it looks like you need 4-5 products from their line based on the feeding chart, just to get the basic NPK down. And of course there is not Silica, Amino Acids, etc...
So, I understand for commercial growers its nice to have something close, and cheap! So, hopefully for those people who do not want to wait to get something shipped, we will have some products available in retail stores and local warehouses soon! So they can use MEGA CROP as an option in their grows,
Its usually about 7-10 days for the big 9.9kg bag to arrive with Priority Mail, shipping is $46 to Canada.

hi, hope everyone is well!
I have been working on a new updated Feeding Chart, the goal is to be easier to use regardless of what type of measurement system you are using.
You can test it out here

Would love to hear any feedback if you feel like sharing!

with the mix of powder and balls in MC there is only one real way to measure your fertilizer that is accurate and thats ppm/EC readings after fully mixed in water. The weight in grams or measuring with a spoon like your chart suggests will never be fully accurate until you make your fertilizer all one consistency like Maxi or V+B products. I wish MC didnt try to separate itself into balls on top of the powder, maybe you guys could fix that issue by grinding the balls up then mixing with powder if possible? Then your product would be more consistant overall and easier for every method of measuring to be accurate.

couldnt agree more about the "balls" seperating an floating to the top.
Greenleaf, the balls are Calicum nitrate fertilizer? digging the dial in calculator.
Even with a meter are you still gonna get what you want though?
You may be making 30 gallon batches at 3grams per gl while the next guy may only be making 2 gallons at 3 grams per gl at a time.Measuring out 90 grams vs 6 grams is gonna give more of equal parts of the pellets and powder.
Even with a meter it's a bit harder for the smaller grower to make feedings because of the pellet/powder mixture.
I'd like to see Greenleaf address this on their website for their customers.Sure they're in biz to make money but i'm pretty sure they even want the little folks to be happy too.I can see where peeps doing very small grows may not get every thing MC has to offer if they are trying to mix up 1..2 gls at a time.
I would say no not exactly, the elemental breakdown like they claim on there site with the mix of powder and balls like it is now will never be exact. I would say ppm/Ec readings would be a better way to measure megacrop then by weight though still for any kind of consistency.

I was wondering this also but, what makes you guys think its seperating into different compounds? I just thought it was clumping.
I've asked them some time ago:
"what if I am mixing small parts and get more pellets than powder on the spoon?"
Heres their reply:
"It should come out very even eventually. So, its not something you really need to worry about, just taking normal spoon or scoop should be OK!"

No it does matter and you need to make a stock solution with a greater amount of powder to even it out. I've brought this up on multiple threads with GL. The nutes should be manufatured to similar sized grains or your macros get thrown off.

hmm... im running hempys right now and since theres a pool or res in the bottom, everything gets "evened out" there I suppose?
the potential for inconsistency mixing small batches is pretty high if what you guys say is true, that the ratios are off if you dont mix the granules evenly with the powder.
Ive been eyeing it in the scoop but im only mixing gallons at a time, right now im feeding around 300ppms so its just a few small scoops. I totally would not care either way if was running a res but im also in mid to late bloom, I'd hate my macros going wonky now.
***edit: micros, not macros

the big granules are Nit. the powder and fine powder is everything else. if you are able to use scoops at least as big as a tbsp you should be ok
