DWC tripart soft formula - should i add calmag?
jovialcupid9started grow question 6y ago
I'm using tripart soft formula from GHE for my DWC grow with RO water.
Should i add calmag? The producer says it shouldn't be added, but I can see that everybody does it.

No need to add it unless signs occur. I'm not sure why ghe would recommend not to use it, their products must contain it already then🌱👍
jovialcupid9answered grow question 6y ago
if so, why over 70-80% of growers add it? (of course growers who use ghe tripart)

FF Grow Big and Tiger Bloom overlapOne more related noob question, given autos have such a shortlifetime i find the FFGB is only used twice before switch to FFTB as the flowers appear so quickly.
Is it that the two can be mixed in the first few weeks of flowering and what point should i cut off the FFGB?Week 3

How many weeks left? AutoIs it too soon to flush it? It's on week 12 and I was supposed to harvest 3 weeks ago. This week the stigmas were getting brown so I flushed it. Is it premature? How many weeks do you think I have left? It's got spider mites problems but I'm fighting every day. Thank you! 😘6y ago

Flowering nutrients - BioBloom, Top Max, Alg-a-Mic - from when on?From when on do you start giving this nutrients?
I'm considering to start Thursday, beginning of week. She looks ready for it, and I believe it'll be favorable for her growth in this stretching stage.
Also considered to just increase the amount of the veg nuts.

I'm already seeing yellowing and on the largest plant, #3. Is that due to growth or am I over watering? Approximately 2 gallons in the wick bucket every few days when it starts to feel dry, but I generally spray the top with water on a daily basis, not more than a 1/4 - 1/2 cup.6y ago

Only feeding nutes no plain waterFor some reason my plants are only needing to be watered once a week. My nutrients say to give x amount per week. Should I be giving just plain water as well between feedings, or just keep going with the weekly feedings? 2 are in 5 gallon bags and 2 are in 7 gallon.Feeding. Schedule

Dark green leaves in meringueIs my girl telling me that the flowering fertilizer is too nitrogen loaded? I´m using top bloom from top crop, feeding at 1.4-1.6 Ec, and since last week I started to follow the feed-water-water schedule. The NPK of this fertilizer is 4-8-8. Should I adjust the input EC?6y ago

New DWC setup, pH ppm rising, water lowering. Should I top with fresh water and pH or wait to see if it is relatively stable first?I've attached the first few days of measurements since the roots hit the water. I take measurements every 24 hours and the backslash separates bucket 1/2. Does it looks like I need to top up already or should I wait for a more dramatic change? Thanks everyone!Week 3
