Hey peeps! I’m in the process of finishing up my current grow and starting to plan for my next. I will be switching from GH nutes to jacks 3-2-1 and hopefully adding blumats (thinking 3 plants- each in a 5 gallon fabric pot).
My questions are this:
1. If using a 5 gallon bucket as res. with jacks mixed in at typical 3.6/2.4/1.2, say in 2 days the plants drink 2 gallons, do I just add back 2 gallons of full strength 3-2-1 and ph the res. to ~5.8?
2. I know its a difficult question to answer as there may be many variables, but how long should a 5 gallon res. last growing 3 plants? (i.e.- week or so early veg/ 3-4 days late veg/ 2-3 days flower)
3. Since I plan to grow in 5 gallon fabric pots, is it best to get extra blumat carrots and start them in 1 gallon fabric pots then transplant to 5 gallon with the extra carrots? Or just start then in the 5 gallon?
I’m sure I’ll have a few more questions but these are the main ones I was wondering about. Thanks guys!
