What kind of soil and feeding schedules do you typically run?

Bluebear. I have considered a sulfer burner and will be buying one in December for my new room. The new room has a humidity problem so aside from a dehumidifier were going to have a burner as a precautionary method. My only problem with burners is that they can definitely affect the smoothness of the bud. I never had a problem with taste being affected much, but it just seemed harsher and burned quicker, hurt my lungs. To be honest, the SaferGro Mildew Cure works 95% of the time. I spray em about once every 2 weeks. After 2 sprays it usually doesnt show itself again, and if it does show again, I can spray a 3rd time and they are gone. You can use it up to the last 2 weeks of flowering no problem. Its 100% organic so you ever could use it later then that, but your bud might smell/taste like garlic (never happened to me but its a strong smell so...).

As far as feeding schedule, I dont have one set in stone that I like. For veg, I use a 1/1/1 ratio of Bloom, Micro, and Grow. When I move into flowering, I move to a 3/2/1 ratio of B,M, and G over a few waterings (slowly increasing). When flowering hits, the ppm with my additives (VitaBoost, Big Bud, and a tiny bit of Growth Excel) is around 1200. Right now deep into flowering, I am at about 1800, with a tiny bit of burn. Last time this worked ok but this time around they dont like it quite as much. I am about to start cutting it off pretty dramatically. I do 2 ferts then regular water, 2 ferts then regular water, etc. I am about to move to 1 fert then 1 water as I lower the PPM.

Im going to do yet another experiement with the Trainwreck, as once again (Ive done this before) I am going to harvest about half the plants early and half the plants a little late. Trainwreck is a heavy sativa so I want to see how the trichrome matureity really affects the sativa "head" high. Last time I liked the stuff I harvested early (50% clear, 50% cloudy) better then later (almost all cloudy and some amber).
