A word of advice ...Never talk about when you are soppose to harvest.
You don't want anyone to know that but you.

As latewood said it depenps on the stage. Mine runs from 1500 to 2000 PPM's in the middle and end of flowering. More important is you lose the nitrogen the farther into flower you get. I found out the hard way, don't even tell your brother about it. Since we all know now we will be at your place for the trim party feb 18. LOL

LOL!!! We're there LOC... can you give me a lift? LOL!!!

Damn dude, the brother thing really sucks... I told my brother (long time ago, before hearing your story)... and since reading your situation, I've told my brother that I will kick his ass if he threatens me in any way. But he's cool... I doubt there be problems there.

Here's what I do if some one finds out about my grow(I don't tell anyone...need to know basis)
I tell them your the only other person on this planet that knows about this grow,If anything happens your the first person I'm coming to see!
It works well.People are afraid to talk about it to anyone else in fear of getting blamed for someone elses robbery.
Just when you say it be nice and none threating ,that way when you say your the first person I'll come see ,with a big friendly smile on your face.They think your nuts...Also I'll give them insentive to keep the secret."If you don't tell anyone and nothing happens to my crop I'll kick you down a fat sack(never say exactly how much...this keeps there imagination running to the sum of a huge bag at harvest)...
Trust me this is good advice because sometimes someone will stumble into your room or show up at a wierd time...Or professionals like the stoner bug guy I imploy for all my outdoor and indoor pestiside spraying...I tell him everything that I said above and then kick em down a 1/4 or something after harvest.

Sure turtle I'll pick you up on the way. LOL. Don't let us scare you atvs22 we are mostly harmless mostly. LOL. J DOG my bro had one good outside grow in 10 years. I barely saw 3 joints. what started it was he got an NFT tray and a 150 HPS and a 400HPS and a phototron from my cousin for a boat trailer and motor worth 4000 bucks. Suck ass trade. He gave me the 400 because it was too hot for his closet. It would of been alright if he listened about venting and maybe a cool tube. I told him everything he tried in the tron would die if you don't follow there instuctions. It did. Then he wanted a 6 plant drip system like mine cause he saw me doing well. Then gave me the tron because everything in it died. LOL. He went to florida for a week and sold the drip system to the guy next door. Did not tell me his 150 was part of the deal, so he had no light. Had me get him another drip system and had the nuts to take clones off the guy's next door. Well lucky for me I got a 1000 HPS at a good price new. I was useing both lights to finish my grow. If he had of even lied and said his light blew out I would of been there with the 400 in a second. He had to get mad cause he thinks I ripped him off when he put it in my hands. what got me was demanding more of my small grow then demanding the whole thing or call the law. He was super jealous cause I made his grow look like shit and it was. I do not submit to blackmail. I told him his part was in the woods behind my neighbours and I cleaned up, now the shoes on the other foot. His scared ass could barely bring his self to my house to get the light. He would not take the tron cause you could see it in the back of his truck. Told him it was going in the trash. HAHA. I asked where he was going to use the light and he says you going to call the law on me! I say I'm no nark but watch out. He was going to tell my parents on me. They know anyway I told them. No big deal. Haven't heard from him in a week, good sign. I have a big sack of orange bud he will never see. I don't have friends to smoke with, jobs and piss test you know. So I'll smoke it all my self laughing the whole time cause this stuff will knock you in the dirt. Oh well It's time for some meds, where did that lighter go. LOL. atvs22 sorry about the hijack. Tell us a little more about your setup, style, type, light, just general stuff.

atvs, you plant should look happy and greeen... n

Not light green and not super duper dark green..

the tips should be healthy... no brown burns...

Now, since you are coming to the end of your plants life cycle, some leaves will turn brown or yellow.. but this is OK.. i am talking about the tips of healthy leaves.. they should not be burnt

1350 sounds good... It can be high for some NUTS... some companies make better nuts and it is not neccessary to go over 1000.. other companies, like my beloved General Hydropnics.. make medium grade soultion, that requires a HIGHER ppm..

1300-1600

the most important thing is to sit and observe your plants.. really look at them.. you will see if they are healthy or not.

i love you

i just read on another forum that with three part nutes(micro,grow,bloom)that you only use micro and grow in veg and then micro and bloom in flowering is this correct or fucked up i think you should use all three thats what the directions say anyways your opinions?

Go to the faq's page. There is a mix for GH nutes. You use all 3 and start droping the grow when you flower. That's the nitrogen. There is also a mix I forgot the guy's name that you only use micro and bloom. OH do a search for Lucas formula.
