Had to do two dryback period in week 4 and 5 of three days as I was pumping much solution in them with six on/off schedules on the timer and the wet felt pots developped a different smell, maybe the Megacrop smell and or ammonia buildup.
The two dryback periods made roots come to the sides of the feltpot interior and resulted in really pronounced growth bursts when the medium had dried for three days although the stretch period is starting today which contributes to the double growth.
Pics of Sep25 posted at top show before and after of feeding after first dryback, or the growth after a feed and a dark period follwing three day dryback. Future grows will need more drainage by adding 30% perlite.
I lack finesse in my defoliation technique, for this purpose, and the plants being dwarf and autoflowers isn't optimal for training but they are growing nicely with multiple evenly spaced tops.
For nutrients this week I will gradually substite PartB (15-0-0) for Bud Explosion PK booster and at some point do a foliar of B-52 and CalMag to wash the stomatas and ready them for big flowering buds.
Broken Vivosun zipper, one month of use, locking me out of my veg tent. Amazon not replacing it so not sure what to do but looks like it's coming down.
The ratio of Sulfur is something like 20% higher using the Megacrop two part. They say it has added magnesium, but when I input my numbers on their site PPM calculator it's much higher sulfur than magnesium. So I add 1 gram per gallon of Epsom, Why/what ppm ratio do I need here?
hey there, sulfur is good but only really used during the flowering, magnesium is important throughout but it doesnt relate to the N in any way, more like it regulates NPK in general as well as its important in photosynthesis, so it's more sensitive to the amount of daylight hours than to the NPK as well as it becomes important at different stages of the plants growth for example during stretch periods. so to answer your question, your PPM is spot on but you can lower it with no problem by using less mgsufur and more epsom salt. Hope this helps ! 🚀
@@Rheaun613, it's almost impossible to over do it with Epsom salt or cal mag in general, but many growers still manage to find a way to over do it, knowledge comes with experience and a bit of intentional learning, just keep taking notes and it will " click " pretty quickly i'm sure
@CRiSPrGrow, so Epsom is less likely to unbalance nutes vs overusing NPK, got it. I'm also already measuring each ppm seperately just haven't done enough runs to completely grasp how i'm going to change it up over transition especially about cutting N. To keep that simple and optimal we watch the plant I understand that 👌.
@@Rheaun613, great f-ing question growmie, see not all PPMs are created equal Epsom ppm is "good ppm" (not a technical term lol) so that means that it hardly really counts (just my personal opinion) just dont over do it and you can basically add it with eyes closed. NOT so with NPK especially PK boosters. What you want to do is measure your PPM after adding each element starting with NPK to get a more fine grained idea of what you're doing. The "bad PPM" (again, not a technical term) is NPK and others that can lead to burns and lock outs , so that's what you want to keep under control... am i making any sense?
