*The K.I.S.S. Method*

That is inevitably the truth.

Back on-topic... has anyone considered rocking maxibloom with blumats? I've been wanting to switch to these forever, maybe next round. My main concern is dosage. Do I just run 1 tsp/gal and do a plain water reservoir every 2 weeks? Or run 1/2 tsp/gal continuously?

That's a great question, my initial feeling is that a complete flush/plain water res fill,every other cycle, would probably be best.I would find 'the edge' with a strain I knew well and go from there in terms of dosage/above/below 1tsp per.

I'm liking the blumats, just don't think they'd work for my situation (large containers)

^^ Cheeb has a grow that he just finished in the coco section using blumats with only Maxi. Check it out!

Super,

How big of containers are you using? I'm about to put my blumats on 5 gallon smart pots.

great to see this thread! i used lucas for years (no dump) in DWC, till someone turned me on to "lucas in a one part dry fert". now im in coir and still getting GREAT results. although with a few tweaks:
I have noticed that in coir, some of my strains were getting a bit mag deficient, so now i use .25 tsp/gal epsom salt during weeks 1-4 of flowering.
and
I love Blumats in Coir esp. with Maxi/KB
just make sure to run Drip-Clean and you will have zero issues.

I use my tap water to mix my Maxibloom (1 tsp/gal) and my ppm's come out right about 1200-1300. Yours sounds 'but right.

I just read all the responses to your thread in the infirmary.
First, Maxibloom all by itself is all that is needed to grow plants like this;

So anyone who tells you otherwise either hasn't tried it or had issues that are unrelated to Maxibloom but blame it on the Maxibloom because it is still hard to believe that 1 tsp/gal of pink powder grows herb that is as dank as herb grown with $1000 in nutrients.
Also, all that is needed for veg thru harvest is that same 1 tsp/gal of Maxibloom.
Veggers;



I honestly don't know what's wrong with your plants, mainly because you're in Aero and that is unknown territory for me but I think Chimera is correct in that it's a ph related problem.
I could be wrong though.
Sorry I can't be more help with that.

Not sure I understand you.
I use Botanciare coco. Not for any other reason other than that's what my local 'dro shop carries. I've used GH CocoTek and had the same results. Never tried Canna though, nobody around here carries it.

 

[CranAppleGemz]

That's a bold statement... but it was very nice. My favorite on here is probably blazeone's 4k soil... with the supplemental UV, fucking badass. Or his secret/hidden RDWC room behind the book shelf? Sick.

please, dont get me wrong...tons of nice set-up..and blazeones 4k is F'in AWESOME..but my statement is not a fact, milehigh...just my little opinion...

D69's room looked surgical...having a mean case of OCD, i just loved it...not to mention it was completely dialed in...unless she was lying, u gotta respect those numbers she was pullin...2+# per 1k

all on Floranova Bloom by the way...K.I.S.S . at its finest...

I don't see why mb and aero wouldnt work just fine, if anything they'd probably thrive like mad.
