hello folks

a great way to massive stinky yields and preventing powdery mildew and bug infestation and or root rot is keep your root zone salt build up free

this is my tried and true ppm/ec chart that will work best with my genes or anything else you are growing

clones / seeds -
week 1 - 140ppm / 0.2 ec
week 2 - 210ppm / 0.3 ec

At this point go feed feed flush. Feed feed flush etc

veg
week 1 - 350ppm / 0.5 ec
week 2 - 420ppm / 0.7 ec
week 3 - 550-650 ppm / 0.8-0.9ec

bloom - transition
week 1 - 700ppm / 1.0 ec
week 2 - 800ppm / 1.1 ec

full bloom
weeks 3 - 5 (or more) - 800-900ppm / 1.2-1.3 ec

ripening (shock flushing)
15 days before flushing - 400-500ppm / 0.6-0.7 ec

flushing
15 days before harvest - 0-200ppm / 0.0-0.3 ec

shock ripening
at least 72 hours of pitch black and ice water. dehus on constant

less is more guys. pounding plants with ppms will stunt growth, stunt yield, lower quality, resin production, and send signals out to pests like pythium, powdery mildew and bud rot plus all the bugs you can name to come and finish them off. its how nature works. thos parasites are just waiting for the plants to call them in. and toxic salt build up is the #1 cause of all grow room related issues

Ive really studied your tutorials and adopted the ones relevant to my situation,

I truly appreciate the tips, and no , I havent bought anything from you yet

my problem is the generosity of icmags members have kept me in great genes since ive started out - I already have a library in the freezer, and I havent had my first harvest yet, smh.
Im lucky, fortunate and grateful to you and my new friends here on ICMag whove donated their time, tuts, knowledge and opinions to a certified noob like myself

ChaosCatalunya · 05-02-2015, 07:24 PM

Is this for hydro, not coco?

The figures are to go on top of tap ec/ppm or is it for RO?

Can you please explain more about the shock ripening, is it to speed up ripening or improve quality, or both?

med-man · 05-02-2015, 08:05 PM

Hi chaos

Its for any medium. If they need more add more. I updated the post with the feed rinse cycle as well.

Shock ripening is to increase yield. Terms. Resin. Density. Taste. Color etc etc.

And if you have to crop early great way to get them ready for chop

Read the whole med-man method for a clear decisive description please

Thanks Med-Man- this is very helpful! I never did think that plants were pigs!

med-man · 05-31-2015, 05:12 AM

Hi 13 x-ray

You are welcome

Plants can handle alot. Its avoiding the stress that causes slow growth. Pests and death that are most important to prevent imho

Hi Dr fever

I am sorry. People are not plants lol hahaha

I will leave it at that

Re-read why ice and darkness. And if you haven't tried or done it. Then don't judge it
