You emptied that Masterblend quick.

That's fairly advanced to be fair. What's your blend?
Many pro's use such blends. Half of those also use kelp/fulvic/PK boosters. While Potassium Silicate has a good reputation. Finding it's way into 25% of big operations.

I wouldn't add any complications while you still feel a noob. Three packets can take you a long way.
 
My blend is 811 grams of Masterblend, 643 grams of magnesium sulfate, and 660 grams of calcium nitrate.

I am testing my CMH here.

Interesting K, Ca, Mg ratio. I tend to push Mg a little to. In the UK we don't rest on the ratio's anyway. The goal is to supply enough of each.

I presume it's the 4-18-38, which I have not seen used very often. Your weights are very precise.

Yes, it is the 4-18-38. I just used Ichabod Crane's recipe. My buddy is also helping me out in this grow. Inputs based on knowledge and experience from seasoned growers are valuable for me.

I will pull up a seat. Vertical bare bulbs do great and using Ichy as an example will serve you well. Best of luck.
 
Hahaha. Here are the updates:

The girls are doing well here. I had some issues with the Masterblend formulation when I mixed 14 ml of Masterblend/magnesium sulfate and 14 ml calcium nitrate to 1 gallon of RO water and it gave me twice the ppm needed. So, it could be that 14ml of Masterblend/magnesium sulfate to 1 gallon of RO and 14ml of calcium nitrate to 1 gallon of RO, and it gave me 600 plus ppm.
