Less then 10 days from sprout no. Just proper ph water. After day 10 start very light and step up as needed. Do NOT go of nutrition information on bottles.

EC and PH of Runoff still Higher than Solution even after a flush and lowering the EC
Hi, i still having this problem even after down the concentration of solution for 1/4 that scheduling feeding table says. I have some measurements listed in the week 10. Maybe my media is buffering PH and EC because i used to recycle it over times?

Feeding with dense roots?
So I'm using 5 and 7 gallon pots and I'm using Gaia greens and some worm poo for my feed but once they start to take off into flower, all of my dry amendments build up on top bc of the roots. I want to stay organic but how can I feed these girls once the roots block up the pot?

Spiruline fertilizer
Just wondering if anybody here has experience in using Spiruline as source of food for the plants? It is an algae with lots of nutrients and beneficial stuff and I am trying to use it for my plant but perhaps I am doing something wrong/useless. Any experience to share?

Can I use this as a top dressing ? If yes, do I put it on top before or after watering ? Sorry if this seems daft, I'm used to bottled nutes
Great white shark Can I use this stuff as a top dressing ?? I've been thinking of doing so, but I'm worried it may affect the pH. I've been adding it to the water before feeding.

Looking for nutrient advice: I run RDWC (65L) and DWC (50L), 115L total. Need max pH-stability and clean minerals for high-oxygen hydro. Which pro-line handles heavy feeding best without residue? Documenting all EC/pH data and plant response. Suggestions?

My first time grow and my autos are in flowering. I’ve been giving them grandmas molasses (half teaspn/1gal) every feeding along with her other nutes. She’s been taking them well, should I up the dose? Or feed every other watering?
