I started out with the Lucas formula and have used many different nutes over the years with pretty good results some with additives some without, thinking about going back and maybe just adding in some Phosphorus in flower maybe a cal mag if theres any signs I need it . any thoughts. I grow in DWC.I tried Coco but fungus gnats drove me crazy

I'm going back to NFT for the same reason. Also looking to go with the Lucas formula. I'm using T.A. DryPart Bloom and some Athena base to add nitrogen. And also the CalMag agent from T.A. as I'm using osmosis water.

Use calcium acetate for your calcium and magnesium sulfate for your magnesium. The key is the full and healthy pH swing to allow *all* the nutes to get absorbed properly.
Have fun.

Why not just go with Jacks Hydroponics and Calcium Nitrate from J.R. Peter's?
Cheap, made for Hydroponic Cannabis growing, it's clear, same formula from start to finish, threw away Cal/mag, gave up res changes (add only), I could go on?

The Kiss method is one of the best if not the best fall backs for me, I try to stay with organics, truly. But the kiss method always saves the day if I start having problems. For me, the lucas formula/kiss is probably the best nutrient regimen for traditional indicas, and indca hybrids most seed companies sell. The only thing different I personally do is cut MaxiBloom with commercial 10-10-10 for my more wild/true sativa plants.

I rather have a little more Maxi grow (N) instead of using all bloom in flower
1:1 ratio grow and bloom until week 6 and cut the grow seems to be the sweet spot in flower

I have to agree with Lucas on the no additives, except... the rabbit manure extract I make.
Only organically derived product I am sure will make my rez cleaner, while it increases health and terpene/cannabinoid quality, quantity and complexity.
Excellent shit. lol
