Technique
I am realizing a ramping up of growing medium EC to the point it already required a flush mid-veg; Megacrop recommends feeding at 1 EC and rying back my peat based media seems to increase it's EC by 50% of feed every dryback.
On next grows I will begin at low PPM and base using more Part B (N,CA 15-0-0) in lieu of 20% less Part A...and as I started to do this grow feeding Part B progressively switched to BE (Potassium) and additive CalMag.
Switched to HPS and 12/12 to speed things along. Actually all my grows now going with constant 12/12 under duo 400/600 HID from seed for simplicity as I want to grow my plants in 6x4 both photo and auto strains.

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 ! π

@@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 π.

@@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?
