first time grower(12 days into flower w pics)
Brooke,
Before YOU slag off people who have a lot of experience growing cannabis, find out if they have used MG first. Yes, I've done trials with it. I grew 4 plants with veg miracle grow and switched to flowering MG during flowering. At the same time I grew 300+ plants of the same species using my normal nutrients. The 'soil' was 100% coir (Coconut fibre containing no nutrients by itself, very light and airy stuff, great for growing[am now a hydro grower but still use coir for a few species]). The species was AK-47. The lights were 8 foot HO fluros for seedling stages, 400w MH lamps for the grows and 1000w HPS lamps for the flowing stages. Each MG plant was placed into a different grow room (to negate the effects of poorer conditions in one room). The yield off the MG plants were average of 24 grams. The average of the normal plants (grown with A/B, root stimulator, veg booster, bloom booster and PK was 182 grams per plant.
Now, I'm not a math genius, but that seems like alot less for the MG plants.
You can use WHATEVER you want to use. Not my plants, not me having to smoke it. But I think the numbers speak for themselves. The MG plants did not smoke as well (burn was harsh, high was not as good) and I ended up giving it all to my cousin to smoke. Personally, I'm in it for the money as well as the smoke, so 182 grams versus 24 grams, and a nice smoke with a good stong high seems to me to be the way to go.
I'll send your comment back to you and challange you to try cannabis specifically formulated nutrients before you comment on which is better. Do a test, you'll be impressed!
Not trying to slag you off, not trying to make you upset, but I know at least two dozen commercial growers in NL. Not a SINGLE one uses MG for nutrients and all would problably laugh up a lung if anyone suggested it. We use good nutrients formulated for MJ because we want high yield, strong THC content and a good burning smoke. NONE!, Absolutley NONE of the smoke you buy in coffeeshops in Amsterdam has been grown using Miracle Grow.
The nutrients we suggest and use ourselves are not expensive and available at any good hydroponics shop (yes, even the soil nutrients) or available via mail order.
Peace and love!
The Fr33kMan :rasta:Fr33kMan Reviewed by Fr33kMan on . first time grower(12 days into flower w pics) Hey everyone. I have been posting questions on this site for a couple months during my first ever grow. I finally got a camera, so I decided to put up a few shots of my ladies. In the setup, there are 3 definate females and 3 younger plants we decided to start flowering as well. Let me know what you think of the plants. They are under 300w of HPS with reflectix and good ventilation. I'll post more later especially as things really start to change. Rating: 5
