Hi Steveo h,
I have been using the GH nutrients (MaxiGrow and MaxiBloom) by their schedule (recirculating program) and have found that the levels are about at the maximum. I get a small amount of 'neut burn' (brown leaf tips) but the plants are doing very well. I am also using the Liquid KoolBloom, Floralicious Plus, Armor Si, and FloraNector.
If you want to 'push the envelope' on the feeding levels, just do it a little at a time and watch the plants closely. If you see any problems developing, you can drain and start over.
Good luck with your grow.Smoke weed,.....grow peace! -
Probably not. If it's not broken don't fix it. You'll usually want to have a mild increase till about 2/3 of the way through flowering- but you have to balance that with how the plant looks. If she seems totally happy then don't increase. If you do, just do it by a tiny increment. Most of the plants I see on forums look somewhat overfertilized to me. When you have a plant that's being fed too heavily through flowering and it has that shiny artificial green colour to it all the way through, it also has smaller and lower quality buds than it would if it was fed less.
At this point you'll probably want to be switched completely over to flowering nutes, which should lighten up that deep green colour as time goes on.
The first time I grew in hydro I thought I'd be ramping the nutes up past 1200 ppm But I never made it past 650 because the plants looked so happy. So I stayed there for most of flowering. Things turned out great.Last edited by Weasel; 02-10-2017, 11:56 AM.Comment
