Hey guys I am using a "no feed" soil mix very similar to the one in the soil mix thread. The moonshine mix
1 bag of Fox Farm Happy Frog potting soil ½ bag Fox Farm Ocean Forest ½ bag of Black Gold organic soil 2 lbs of earth worm castings. 5 gallons of Chunky / Coarse perilite 1 cup greensand 1 cup dolomite lime (powder) 1 small coco fiber brick 2 cups Peace of Mind Fruit and Flower
For 90% of plants this mix will need only Ph'd (6.7) water through the entire flower cycle. For the other 10% of heavy feeders I recommend feeding at week 3 through 5.
For this feeding per 5 gal of pre ph'd 7.0 water.
Week 3: 2 tblspn of Age Old Organics Bloom ½ oz Maxicrop seaweed 1oz of Mother Earth Tea bloom ½ oz B1 thrive alive bloom
Week 4 & 5 4 tblspn Age Old Organics Bloom 1 oz Maxicrop seaweed 2oz Mother Earth Tea Bloom 1/2 oz B1 thrive alive bloom When feeding make sure 20% of what you put in is peeing out the bottom. Start flushing 12-17 days before harvesting.)
In the soil mix thread they also recommend using thive alive b1 and maxicrop, but they don't recommend how much to use. My recipe recommends using it in flower for about 3-4 weeks, but I've heard thrive alive especially is great for the general health/robustness of a plant in veg.. I am afraid that adding the recommended dosage will be too much because the soil is already amended.
Whatcha think? should I try a bit while they are still in veg, then follow the flower schedule as stated along with the other ferts during flower?
