STINKY!!! HELP!! :eek:
Daniel I must say I am so bad with this kind of thing but I will give it a try. Understand that the way I grow is the way I was taught from a very kindly hydro guy whom I still think walks on water so when he tells me to do something I pretty much do it without asking why. I think that's why I loved teaching cm......he was a good boy who did what he was told. :D
I am only going to list the basics....anyone who wants in depth information on specific nutrients needs to talk to Stinky or rhizome or someone who actually knows.
First here is the website that explains the nutrients and supplements I use. DISCLAIMER: I am not affiliated with these products. They are simply the brand I use.
Botanicare : Products : Product Overview : Nutrients
This iincludes product overviews for the CalMag, Pro Grow, Pro Bloom, Hydroplex, Liquid Karma and Sweet.
But this website has a cool way of waiting until you've written a 3 page post before it swallows the the entire thing forever so I've learned to post in stages.
Dutch Master: FOLIAR TECHNOLOGIES
Here is the website for the Reverse, Penetrator, and Liquid Light which are the foliar sprays I use.
Lastly here is the website for Cannazym

Reverse osmosis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A quickie on RO water. The Cal Mag is used to replace the mierals etc that are lost in the RO process that the plants need.
Sooo...yes. You get to pay to take those things out of the water, and then pay more to put them back in.
Lastly a quick run through:
RO water: Water with close to nothing in it and usually used in hydroponics to control the exact nutrients and minerals the plants are getting and to assist in controlling the ph of the nutrient solution.
Cal Mag: Supplement to replace lost minerals in your RO or distilled water.
Pro Grow: One part hydroponic nutrient for vegetative growth
Liquid Karma: General supplement for plant health and to assist with ph control.
Sweet: Carbohydrate supplement to increase growth and flowers
Pro Bloom : One part hydroponic nutrient for flowering
Hydroplex: Bloom enhancer or "bud booster"
Reverse: Foliar spray to eliminate to possibility of hermaphrodites appearing and
pollinating the flowers.
Liquid Light: Foliar spray to increase growth.
Penetrator: Additive to foliar sprays to assist with leaf penetration
Cannazym: Added to resevoir to assist and maintain root health.
PS.....you folks are on your own with the 3% hydrogen peroxide.....google it. :D
WOW! Thankyou so much!

hey weedhound, not to thread jack or interrupt, but has anyone seen kindprincess around lately?
Hey WH you wrote in week 3 of bloom you use 600ppm of the pro grow did you mean to switch back to pro grow for a week and then back to pro bloom or is the just an error and you ment pro bloom? Only asking cuz I'm a noob :)
Actually you are right and that is a mistake. It should be Pro Bloom.....somebody else mentioned it also. Thanks for reminding me so we can get it straight. :)
