GH 3 Part

Hey everyone. Got some freshly rooted cuts going into 6" blocks.

Was wondering if someone knew how much nutrients (GH 3 part) in 5 gallons of water to achieve 1200 ppm.

I dont have access to a good PPM meter tonight so if anyone is generous enough to help I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!

I can't imagine why you would feed freshly rooted cuts 1200ppm.

I have been using REZDOG's recipe for a year or so with good results.


REZDOG said:
==The Recipe==


(All Products are GenHydro,pH at 5.5 pH)
(All measurements are per gal.)
6ml flora micro
9ml flora bloom
Kool-Bloom POWDER

VEGETATIVE STAGE AT 24 HRS. LIGHT ON
(18/6,optional)

Veg,Feed:

6ml flora micro
9ml flora bloom

Use the above 1/2-strength on seedlings and clones to 10" tall,then feed full-strength>on.

They're used to being transplanted into 1500ppm, this particular cut anyway. (From rooted clones to flush)

Maybe I will feed them 1000ppm just to play it extra safe considering they're in a new atmosphere.

Thanks.

Okay, well you would know best since you've been growing the strain. I just never used so much that quickly since most of the time the plants won't use it.

So 3 ml/gallon Micro and 4.5 ml/gallon Bloom for veg??

Why skip the grow?? lol I probably have some reading to do...

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to tokinafaty420 again.

Thanks again bud. I'll get you back soon.

it's modified lucas formula, another GH recipe that works for many that you might want to look into.

1200 ppm does seem a bit high, though, for this stage of growth. are you converting from EC @ .7 instead of .5?

Honestly Humble, im unsure. The person I received the cuts from runs them 1500ppm from rooted clone to flush, but suggested I transplanted into a lower PPM considering the new environment.

I just transplanted about 30 into 6" cubes @ 3 tsp per 5 gallons Micro, and 1tsp / gallon bloom.

Thanks for the help everyone.
 

Wait...What?

Rooted clones can take full strength nutes.
I use 7.5./5/2.5 grow/micro/bloom for veg; it is superior to 0/8/16.

Rez/H3ad formula is for running to waste in coco.

Yes he's right.. I tried (REAAAALLY) both form. and GHE one is much superior....

Here you have GHE reccomendations:
http://www.eurohydro.com/pdf/tabs/sp/fs-aero.pdf

I follow them at 60% and works great.

Myself, with 400 w HPS, at 1000 ppm, sometimes burt some clones...
If I don't know the strain, I go from 600-800 ppm up ...

But I see you grow with higher PPM; here in Spain different hydro style (400-600 watt lights, smaller sets for self-cultivation basically) ;)

I'm sure it does seem high but food is also directly related to the strain your growing. bterzz is using very hungry cuts that normally get fed at 1500 ppm from the time they are rooted until flush, and this formula gives 2 pounds per light to a legit grower. I've tried it both Lucas's way and with three part using a much lower PPM level and neither of them matched the yield I get now which is basically just 1500 all the way through.

All that being said, without a meter this is all pointless, a meter is purchase number 1.

Wow this strain must be a nute whore? These are the ppm's i have done for many years . imho anything over 1300 ppm @.5 conversion is very unnecessary evn for a very hungry strain .

Short version, it's useless.

Long version, Lucas is based on the NPK numbers provided (arguably) by Rosenthal and Frank. Using Grow, you will be unable to get within light years of those proportions. Throw the Grow in the trash and you can get real close.

Well, sorry as I don't want to be as stupid as doubting on FB's word, as he is light years from me as a grower, etc...

But we could REALLY have an argument on that ..

We ha different forms of N, etc , there; for diferent absortion at dif. PH level, etc etc...
GHE 's been developing and improving the formula for years ...they are capable ppl, believe me...

And excuse me, I feel a bit like spitting at my guru; please no offense.:ying:

The truth is GH works as a 3 part formula very well...lots of grows here to prove it.

Also the truth GH micro/bloom works very damn well also...lots of grows here to prove it.

Kinda up to the individual grower as to which they prefer. No use getting all excited about anyone else's choice.

I use it in 3 part. Works wonders for me. I never tried Lucas but that's not to say I don't think it works. To each his own.
