kiss.

way too much shit imo.

i use pbp grow & bloom and liquid karma and that's all i need..

i think ur confused..or am i?

I used LK, BASE, CAL MAG, and a phase product...not all at once?

[Xtrakritical]

yeah n00b, thats the formula I used when I burnt the shit out of mine!

Seedy is right, keep it simple...

My best results were also PBP and LK...with a bloom booster starting at 1/2 st and going up slowly. (no calmag, but I use tap water)

I just had to pull/cull 5 chronic cuts a few weeks in,
with black burnt out pistils (really ugly!)

I used bud blood @ 1/2 st along the usual pbp + LK 2nd week into flower
followed by a couple plain ph waterings.
then onto bud blood at 1/2 st. with pbp lk, and Bamn toast...
tried feedin just ph adjusted water before giving up...

I might have let them dry out a bit too much, but not sure that alone was the cause.
so just step up the nutes really slowly.
sucks to toss plants after rooting/veggin/ and flowering a few weeks!

if you are using coco and keep getting defs I would wager that even if you dont think it is the coco is drying out a bit and causing the lock out.

How often are you feeding and how well did you rinse the coco prior to growing in it

[BlueHaze]

keep it simple. Thats to much stuff

[thc43]

coco nute
root booster (veg)
friendly bacteria (whole grow)
silica(half dose veg full in flower)
Pk additive (only in last weeks)

Thats all you NEED. when something goes wrong with so many additive you dont learn anything from mistake because there are too many things going on in the plant and soil.


Ok you have the coco and the nute, find a root booster like rhizotonic, and friendly bacteria. the cal mag is worth holding onto you may need if defeciency shows.

soak the coco in full strength root booster solution at 5.8ph before using, set up a res with ec 1.3 ph 5.8 (clones only) lower ec with seed. Dont let pots dry out in first two weeks keeping PH and ec stable or slightly climbing.

Once you have a few grows under your belt start to experiment with other additives, sometimes they do more harm than good if used at the wrong time..

this is how its going to play out...I already have all the stuff needed so if I kill some clones oh well...only one way to find out...

KISS!

ive been havin good results with only stickin to PBP, LK, and cal-mag and even then i get a little salt buildup so a flush with clearex is needed about once a week. you definately dont want anything that is prone to salt and this may be causing some lockout. im still a newb kinda too so this is only from my recent experience. no deficiencies yet either and outstanding growth under only cfls.

KISS indeed
