general hydroponics 3 part for clones

[danlboy]

Ive used GH 3part latewood legacy for my ebb and flow 4 x 4 table and have had great results. I havent had the pleasure of starting from clones yet. Picking up some babies this week, can anyone help with proper mix of GH 3?

[Horsemanrocks]

I move my clones into a sort of pre-veg bubbler.

I use GH 3-part at 1/4 suggested strength, So for 2.5 gallons water:

3/8 tsp Micro
3/4 tsp Grow
3/8 tsp bloom
1/2 tsp calmag+
Ph to 5.8

I don't have a clue if that's optimal....but at least I haven't been to any funerals lately.

Hope that helps,
HMR

Unrooted GH Subculture M and Superthrive.
Rooted, I agree 100% with HMR. 1/4 str till roots established then slowly increase dosage.

Try this GENERAL HYDROPONICS (http://www.generalhydroponics.com/calculator/index.html)

i use only bio roots from ghe for cuttings the 10-14 first days(no rooting hormon), but you can also add ghe 3 part at 0,3ec srength.

eks: 2 gal
5ml gro
5ml micro
5ml bloom
2ml bio roots

i use this in rainforest 72 and cuttingboard with 90-95% sucsess remember also to keep the res temp at 78f and rh at 70-90% for best results....

If you use the chart for feeding from the GH website you are going to burn the hell out of your clones. Been there done that. There mix isnt what our plants are looking for. 5ml per gal is 100% strength, do the math from there. Or you can start heavy and watch all your leaves start to turn brown starting at the tip and working to the stem.

5 ml per 2gal aprox, or just add equal parts of gro,micra and bloom to you have a srength of abouth 0,2-0,4ec as easy as that. 5ml per gal is 50% strengt do math. and dont you think gh have tried full strength? i have and did great, but as i wrote in the last post i only use bio roots the first 2 weeks no nutes so all in all im agree with using only 1/4 of nutes since they can do with or without nutes.

It Depends on a lot of things like strain and setup. I also do 5ml of all 3 per gallon. Have been for years.

Tinytoon What up! Remember me? (not trying to thread jack sorry)

Hey Pete wb :thumbsup:

I don't do anything fertilizer-wise until the roots have had a few days to get established into the system. Then I feed at half strength and work up from there, in DWC systems. In my NFT system, it's half-strength the entire way through.
