Added 10grams Calcium additive powder on top of my medium to each plant.
Started acidifying and keep aerating my filtered water to 5.6 staying under 100PPM before mixing and my pH is more in range at every stage now, it seems.
EDIT this was good for seedling and early veg but ultimately, for my method in mostly peat meda, it's been dropping a bit too low by pre-acidifying at 5.4-5.6 100+PPM.
When not a dryback day I'm feeding 1 to 2 gallons of 800-1000PPM each per watering cycle (6 times daily).
I'm adding BE 1/3 gram/gallon and lowering Part B 10% this week.
Runoff of 25% per watering cycle and EC is between 2 and 3 in my pots.
EDIT: Daily runoff per plant of 1.5L for total +1gallon weekly runoff per plant. EC in medium was flushed lower once to maintain a steady rise between 2 and 3; second flush this week coincides with the flip but using Megacrop so nutrients are gradually changed vs full recipe change.
Reservoir up to 4 gallons feeds for two days-then drying back two days.
Not sure if they are stretching since they're dwarves...EDIT: actually they just showed sex this week. HST done on tops but no pics.

Grow Questions
Rheaun613started grow question 4 years ago
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?
Solved
Feeding. Chemical composition

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?
