Is ther any special way u have to add the GH 3 part solutions to the resivior?
I've heard alot that you have to mix the micro then the grow then the bloom is that true? Only reason I ask is that I went to the GH website site and it specificlly said order does not matter.
I'd go with the website, you read it yourself.
Logically... should it matter if you put either one in first?
kinda like asking if the glass is half empty or half full
Thats what I was thinking Bob thanks bro.
How long into the flowering stage do I use the mix of 2-2-2 or do I skip that transition mix and just use the 1-2-3 mix
Mixes are referenced in order of Grow-Micro-Bloom
I use GH 3 parts nutes, and it's wtritten on the back of the bottle the amount of each part to mix in water. (First the water must be PH balanced before adding the nutes). But the most important is the EC value. I use to put twice they advice, but my EC is correct and the plants don't burn. I put more like 321 in the veg state, and 123 in the bloom state ( for 1 liter and not for 2 liters) but the EC still rises from seedlings to flower except the last flush.
Im only using 25% nuets. I used for the Veg state 3-2-1 teaspoons per 4 gallons. For the flowering stage I was going to use 1-2-3 teaspoons per 4 gallons. Should I use 100% nuets or should I stick with the 25% strength?
I use 1micro, 3grow ,1 bloom per 2 gal in veg, then switch to 1-1-3 per 2 gal for the first week of flower then 1-1-3 per gal for the rest of flower, until the last week i run straight water(for ebb and flow).Also u want to add the micro to the resevior while u r filling it, then when its full add the grow and the bloom, because the micro will lock out nuts in the grow and the bloom if not diluted. Luck to ya
This may help you. Save this to your computer so you can use it off line.
Fucken Sweet!
Thanks Zandor for the chart I will use that from now on. Hondo as far as mixing them in a special order. Go to thier website www.generalhydroponics.com If you about the flora series it says order in which they added makes no difference. Explain why I should believe you over the makers of the product.
why do you have to dispute me or something i said thats fucked up
HONDO is right! Careful using the GH suggested use... I have never actually known anybody who follows their regement. I use .5 Bloom...
Never mix the nutrients together in one container... this can/will cause lock up... always add the nutrients to a full resivor (one at a time) and stir...
good luck : )
GK you now know someone who does. lol Well it's a guide line anyway. I mix mine away from the res then a final check once in the full res and then I turn the flow back on to feed the plants again.
I saw the chart and i am very surprised to see that in Europe, the value of EC or ppm are not the same. On my bottles of GH nutes, it's written that we can go over than EC 1.8 which is ppm 900. Maybe not the same concentration. If i can go till 1400 ppm from the third week, it's an EC of 2.8, which is huge i think, if it's possible i can grow very bigger buds, because on the last grow i did a max of 900 ppm. Is it true ?
Fhydro
The PPM reading is mostly for total NPK fertilizer mix. You add the supplements after you check the NPK reading. Otherwise the reading will be off. The idea is to enhance the NPK fertilizer we use. If you subtract the supplement from the NPK then there is no enhancement only a miss representation of the true EC/PPM. One way to know if the nutrients are supplying enough fertilizer to the plant is to use a Brix meter and check the absorbed sugar and nutrient levels of the fan leaf. If you grow in dirt then you know it takes days or weeks for a problem to show up and sometimes even longer to correct.
I have had many successful grows with the PPM finishing up around 1600 â?? 1800 PPM then I add supplements like CalMag plus 5ml to the gallon and awesome blossom, or Big buds and fulvic acid. As well as either advanced nutrients Piranha or Tarantula microorganismâ??s products. All that is added after the NPK is mixed and registered.
Did that make any sense to you?
Sorry, but no. It does not answer my problem.
