Mephisto Genetics 1Sky Trys Mephisto with Amare SE450 & A-Train's Nute Schedule

[A-Train]

Hi Doc ( @A-Train ), I'm loving the nute program, today I started the 35-40 day phase. Its the switch over from Grow to Bloom and adds in Massive and Mammouth-P. BUT ... when I looked more closely at the specs, I notice that you list the Mammoth P at 8.5ml/L. Yipes. Can this be true. I think you meant 8.5 ml per gallon,not per liter. Eh?

Feeding time at Jurassic Park:

I never noticed that lol... i use it at .5ml/L... stuff is concentrated... ive even heard usage of 1ml/G when used every watering....

My local Hydro Store recommends 1mL/gal max on Mammoth P. They said that following Mammoth P's schedule up to 4mL/gal resulted in airy crappy buds but 1mL/gal gives you nice tight buds and thick frost.
I recently switched to the store's recommendation and have seen improvement with tightness but can't comment on frost because my Amare light has always produced frosty plants.

Thanks Water Man, glad to have you watching.

@A-Train - Yeh, Mammoth-P at half a ml/L makes a ton of sense. And now we'll be making a ton of buds. Just keep a safe distance, I don't want anyone hurt by a falling cola.

Wow, thanks for passing that along. Who knew? I obviously went too strong with the M-P on my last grow, and I just assumed the fluffy buds on the lower branches were just my lack of aggressive pruning and more LST. But maybe an excess of M-P was also contributory.

I think the 8.5 may have been confused with the liquid W-8 in front of it

oops. You're totally right man. I just miss-read it. Sorry for casting blame for my own mistake. Not too high, just too old.

@A-Train - here's the format I've been using in my "kitchen/lab" - with the correction made for Mammouth-P.

Day 43 update. The heath and grow of these Mephistos, under the Amare SE450, with the special A-Train nute schedule continues to amaze me every day. Over the past 24 hours, 2 of the girls added 5 inches of vertical height, and one added 7". This is crazy. Here is the family photo this morning, with everybody lined up for breakfast.

I'm also taking some photos here of the Ripley's OG. She is the monster of the tent, and the only one in a 5 gallon fiber pot. (What was I thinking?) She is now 31.5" tall and 28" wide, and just loaded with bud sites. Have a look; front, back & top:

I consider this grow as my "Mephisto Practice Run" -- really looking forward to the September contest. Got at least 9 different Mephisto strains to choose from, two different grow styles (AutoPots & Fiber Pots) and two different nute programs (Biotabs and the A-Train modified AN program) -- the combinations are fun to think about.
