Dear friend, the higher the NPK doesn’t mean better and bigger plant. If you truly want to produce top quality organic cannabis stay around 10 and I would use that in the global super mix and btw that is for a powder supplement, if you’re referring to liquid that’s way too high in my opinion. It came to a surprise to me that Cannabis with so little fertilizer can produce wonders👍

Too high for cannabis in all but extreme nitrogen deficiency cases. There are much better fertilizers to use that are far more balanced and cannabis friendly. I would generally avoid anything with double digits.

If you use bone meal, guanokalong complete fertilizer 2-5-3, kelp meal ——-all these contain little nitro which would be enough. You only then add a little fish mix and you’re good to go man👍👨‍🌾

But do I also reduce the amount of additives like Voodoo Juice and Sensizym, etc? Is there anyone here with experience with AN?

Hello community! I broke 2 branches this week. The first one happened by accident when I was draining the runoff, and the other when I was bending it.And today I came across a video where the author explains that silica can cause brittleness of branches. Does anyone have experience with silica and have you experienced anything like this? I add potassium silicate with each watering, at a concentration of 15ppm

High pH run-off?Just measured my runoff--came in at pH 7.25 w/EC 1400 and ppm of 750. I'm quite confused considering I've never watered above pH 6.5 and the past few weeks I've gradually increased from 5.9 to 6.3. I have added an additional Coco top dressing w/diatomaceous earth and brocolli?
