Bugus Monkey's new and improved puzzle basement and various ramblings

[SubmarineGirl]

I have mixed FF nutes up the night before and swelled sediment happened over night. I do soil not hydro but it’s never hurt my grow but I can see where you would be worried about buildup in your system. Wish I could help more.

Call FF and speak with a rep about it

It just sort of P$sses me off. I thought by watching here, experience, instruments & gadgets, studying, stealing ideas off the internet and paying attention in general etc. that I was ready for something involving more bottles I guess. A little more effort on my part (one that was going to make a difference though) to make some top of the top shelf stuff. I'm to a point that I am going to be able to spend a little more time at home for a bit. I am sort of mad at myself, with the thought of "Keep It Simple Stupid" stuff. I'm planning on heading to the ATM for some change and then to the Hydro store for Emerald Harvest. I can't leave until after lunch. I will probably still use some of that FF stuff once I get to budding.

Before I leave for the Hydro store.... Any super simple suggestions for Hydro nutrients from anyone???

Bugs Have you tried to grow in Soil?
I did hydro and never cared for it except when I grew in Coco Coir and perlite mix (has to be hand watered every day mostly Needs to be moist always) I never cared for all the fancy stuff.
I like soil now.
I used General hydro Flora series just the 2 part Micro and Bloom all the way through Veg -Bloom.
I buy store bought soil and feed from about the 1st month into growth.

Lucus Formula

Hydroponics using Lucas Formula – Grow Guru

Some don’t get it, others do… Regardless we are here to help you better understand the Lucas Formula. The Lucas Formula derives from a man named Lucas who participated in online forums for growers who use hydroponics/soil-less growing. His nutrient feeding regime quickly became widely recognised...

I have had great luck so far with hydro

 

[Bugus_Monkey]

Switched everything to FloraMax. Give it a little bit. Defoliated and prepared branches for scrog. Pictures in a few days. It is supposed to help in stabilization of PH and it's not from AN. - - At least that's what I am told. Anyone else using FloraMax?

Never tried that one , going to look it up now

Roster covered it , to make it really simple all one needs is General Hydroponics Flora Micro and Flora Bloom and follow the Lucas Formula

doesnt get much simpler

I seen that Lucas formula long time ago but forgot how it worked.
Does GH work in soil?

All I ever use now muself
And I am still experimenting with Bloom. busters at the end of growth
I also have used this system to do hydro in Coco/perlite 50-50 mix
Just different amounts of feed needed with hydro
They have charts to tell us how much to use.

Lucas Formula - GrassyFarms.com

What is the Lucas Formula? As mentioned on the Growing Marijuana page, providing nutrients is a crucial element that you need to pay close attention to when you start growing marijuana. Your marijuana plants cannot thrive or produce high quality yields without a well-balanced nutrient regime...

In soil I use 6ml Micro and 9ml Bloom

Cal/mag will still be needed

 

[WeedHopper]

Damn that sure is a simple way to feed your girls. How cool. Might have to try that when I run outta FFs nutes.

 

[WeedHopper]

I just read that I could use the same Luca formula for soil as they do for hydro grows.
