[Aeroguerilla]

8ml floranova grow 8ml floranova bud 8ml gh bud 16ml gh micro per gallon... i think correct me if im wrong. i believe theres a thread for this

 

[PuReKnOwLeDgE]

there are pages upon pages upon pages on Lucas, search please

 

[omenman]

alll it is is talking about not changing your water and just keep adding water every week and more nutes but check the ph and the ec...i did this my last run and i noticed no difference in my hydro setups..i only changed the water out when i harvested...however it does make a rez a little dirty to clean after the end of the 8 weeks..

 

[gregor_mendel]

8ml Flora micro
16ml Flora bloom

OR

8ml FloraNovaBloom

OR anything that gets the target elemental ppm

N 100
P 100
K 200
Mg 60

Reservoir management is another issue.
Don't use additives.

The Lucas Formula is generally a nute mix of 0 GH Floragrow-5ml Floramicro-10 ml Florabloom/per gal of water. This goes to 0-8-16 during flowering.

 

[furley]

0-5-10 is for low intensity lighting...

 

[Thecoon]

Does someone have a Watering schedule that works for 0-5-10..Ive got my lights on for 24hrs, its the first day for the babies....ANy input

I know there is a lot of info out there, but lets take this a bit further... Peeps using the Lucas formula in their Hydro setup, compared to say a basic fertilizer such as Ionic bloom + boost? or maybe a Pure Blend Pro or a Dutch Master. I have been using Ionic for over 3 years, works well but has anyone compared these two. Happy growin' fellas My setup I use currently is Ionic Bloom, Ionic Boost, Sugar Daddy, Liquid Karma, little cal-mag if there is a deficiency. So what about it Lucas users?

Can't resist.

Forget about GH and Lucas. Get some Advanced nutes and never look back

0-5-10 vs 0-8-16 is not veg vs flowering, but low intensity lighting vs high intensity

Low intensity generally means flouros that are not t5

Being that nearly every product Advanced makes is a copy of another manufacturer, why dump another nutrient for Advanced?

I use GH flora series.

How would my garden be better if I used the exact same salt mix from Advanced?

 

[cygnus]

I have used both as well as a few of my friends our yeilds are nearly double with advanced.

 

[slowandeasy]

Yeah right

 

[superultramega]

right [/sarcasm]

what is the supposed benefit of omitting the grow from the standard GH mix?
