Topping off rdwc with add .27 Dutch Master Gold

[UberPooner]

Hey I had a question for the people familiar with dutch masters gold line.

I am using grow a+b, add .27, zone and silica.

I only put the required amounts of .27, zone and silica for all the water in my system(15 gal).

Then for the next 10 days or so I just top off with nutrient a+b to put ec at desired range. I was wondering If I should also be topping off with add .27?

I have been experience some of what looked like to be cal/mg deficiency so I started using cal/mag with nutrient a+b for topping off. Then I saw some info saying you dont need cal/mg. Thats what made me wonder if I should add the .27 when topping off to fix those deficiencys.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks!

im doing a grow right now with DM. check it out. google its on this same forum. its called dutchmaster power kush scrog. use there nutrient cal at half strentht and everything will work awesome. i use rodi water with no calmag at all

i top off in a 5ml A 5ml B 6ml add27 5/5/6 per gallon. res change at 12 to 14 days cause solution gets unstable after that from what i experienced

ps always add the add27 first then silica then the a and b. and never mix that shit in the same res as your rootball. premix in 5g bucket then add it to top off. all the ph swings will stress your plant way out. with ro water it drops my shit to like 4.0 and i have to use ph up

HAHA Hey Dr Tone! I laugh because your post actually made me think about this add .27 issue. I was browsing dwc and dutch master last night and stumbled on your post, it is a very good one! I noticed you bought the larger size of add.27 so thats what made me think about topping off with it and starting this thread ha. So now I will top off with add .27 as well!

I had a question on their nute calculator. When you say use half strength, is that off their standard or aggressive feeding plan?

What was your ppm in veg rite before you flipped to flower? Those are about the same size as my plants.

Im running at 610 as of now, It was much lower though it looked like it was getting deficiency from cal/mg/boron/nitrogen. Though now im wondering if that was nute lockout and me increasing to 610 was a bad idea?

All my ppm's are off .5 conversion, if possible could you provide values as EC or .5?

Thanks man!

 

[Dr.Tone]

My ppm were super low. i use a .68 conversion meter but it also reads EC. in veg i was at 0.8 EC max in flower ive never went over 1.1EC in flower either. im also using ro water also and never got any deficiencies ever. just look at the lower fan leaves. if there burnt at the tips and its not spreading you should be fine. Its the half strength standard feed schedule BTW

Thank you soooo much Dr. Tone I really appreciate it!!!

hey @Dr.Tone, sorry to bring back an old thread but I had a question. Since your doing half of the standard program, are you cutting A+B AND ADD.27 in half? Or just A+B and full ADD.27?

Thanks!
