hey guys, I'm struggling a bit trying to get the 6/9 set up to work on my 3-week old plants I was at a quarter strength with a bit of calmag (1.5/2.25 per gallon) and I got nitrogen deficiencies so I Up'ed the formula to 50% and went 3/4.5 a gallon and got nitrogen toxicity


should I maybe try a 1/3 strength and see how they go at 2/3 per gallon ?? seems like the only choice ...

or should I just shoot for an actual ppm and not worry about the amounts as long as the ratios are right?

Maybe more information is needed newbie.. what are you doing with 6/9?? Dont get me wrong and it could be some type new lighting set up I havent heard of... I get stuck at 18on 6off. I have know of some that do 9on, 3off and nine on, three off for veg. not sure what ure trying to accomplish. Veg? Bloom? light size? strain?
Info in before info out. Otherwise we'd be guessing, just like you are.

I'm using 18/6 and they are in veg atm only 3 weeks old, my light is a 450w led and I have them sitting at perfect par for veg at around 700 PAR

strain is indica photos, they were given to me by a mate for my first grow because i assumed i would fk it up haha so not 100% on the exact strain

Hi King Loki

You can drop the micro for strains that are sensitive to nitrogen.

I had a strain that was very sensitive to N, i gave her 4/9 and she loved it.
