Let me start off by saying that Im researching the strain WhiteRhino!
What nutrients are the best for flowering?
Are all A+B mixes complete with secondary nutrients & macronutrients & such?
Has anyone used Liquid Gold during flowering as daily foliar spray with noticeable positive results?
What is the safest maximum TDS ppm I should use to feed plants in Pro-Mix HP soiless medium?
any help will be greatly appreciated!

I would suggest the 'Advanced' category, or the 'Hydroponics' category, if that's your style, ... and, a more patient attitude helps ... :smokin:

QFT!
You catch more flies with honey there, Suspect... leave the vinegar for your chips.
Oh... and there is someone who has posted on this thread who is familiar with the strain. Unfortunately your previous statement may have alienated the people who could help you.

Hey, how are ya guy?
I like the Canna Terra series in Pro-mix.
The A-B's are pretty good, but they all have their weaknesses- If I was going A-B in promix, I'd do the AN Sensi- but not the whole 2+ thing, it's overkill.
Never used the Liquid Gold myself, but it's got a solid rep.
Max EC will be related to nute choice- lemme know what you're using ... wouldn't push over 1200ppm in MOST circumstances, but diff nutes are diff.

When I started this thread, I tried to ask my questions in a way that would incinuate that Im not that much of a beginner, and that I already understand the basics very clearly. So when the first response was what it was it kinda disappionted, didnt mean to come off as rude, sorry to those of you that took offence,
Peace!

Thanx for the reply,
Ive recently switched to Supernatural Brand suplements
and Grotek in the last month with astonishing results.
For the last 2 weeks my ec ppm has been @ 1100, & the last 2 feeds were @ 1350ppm, I think this is as high as Im gonna push it any further. Growth has far surpassed both of my previous 2 crops, so I think Im gonna stick with this stuff for awhile & experiment with it.
If you havent already seen my 2 threads, in "indoor growing", check em outif ya want. WhiteRhino 2oo7

Well let's see then. I still haven't had the pleasure of growing that strain yet so I might be one of the noobs you scorn... but... :D
Just having a peek at your grow, what was the thinking behind batwing reflectors? Was it simply that they are inexpensive, and since you have multiple points of light, it isn't as much of an issue? If I were going to make a recommendation, it would be to upgrade whenever you get a chance to a little better quality reflector with air cooling so that you can regulate temps and light spread better, and hang a white poly curtain in front of your area to minimize 'lost' lumens.

Suspect - Nice setup!!!:thumbsup:
I know this doesn't respond directly to your question, but have you read any of the molasses threads?
http://boards.cannabis.com/basic-growing/127894-yet-another-molasses-question-stinky-anybody.html
I just bought some Cana coco nutes, A & B, and the directions on the package seem rather specious so I'll be interested to see what you find out here.
BTW - speaking on behalf of the over 50 crowd, that type size and color you are using is kinda hard on the eyes. Could you tone it down a little, please? :jointsmile:

yes I have tried molasses, but apparently youre only supposed to use the one specific bread called "Blackstrap molasses" due to removal of sulfuric acid or some shit like that, I cant seem to find it anywhere, and when I tried the other brands somethin bad happened to my leaves. Im gettin some Carbo load by AN, its pretty much the same shit except it has a little extra umph for my buck.

FYI - "Blackstrap", as I understand it, is feed store type molasses and is a lot cheaper because you can buy it in bigger quantities. Regular old grocery store molasses works just fine, just look on the label and make sure it says "unsulphered". I never used carbo load but have had excellent results with molasses.
...whatever works, right?
I just scrogged some White Widows yesterday. I'll have to check out your Widow thread.
Thanks for changing the type color. The black's a lot easier on the eyes. :thumbsup:
