You'll be fine with AN bigbud & overdrive in soilless/plagron... That's what I'll be running for my dragons mate. It's what J TaNg, DubV & co run with..

:smokebuds:

Thats good enough for me then :thumbs: Kush n PR.:buds:Maybe we can get 303g from a 15L airpot like JT hey ?
So next feed for those dudettes was gunna be ...

rhizo 2ml/L
ionic bloom 4ml/L
potash 0.5ml/L
bigbud powder ??? says 0.5g/L ??? would i start lower & work upto that ,so they get full dose(0.5g/L?) say for 2weeks before OD & then drop ?. Thats what i was planning with the potash as well ? .Its kinda how ive been shown to run it in DWC & guess it applies to soil ? & mj in general ?.

Blue mammoth arrrrrrRRRGGG . EC up n down ..PH up n down ...Temps up n down (res 12oC this morn)... cal/mg def .... tip burn .. All the usual ! ... but EC is now stable at 1.8 so hope im in the zone again :smoke::smoke:... ...

 

[phoenix rising]

The AN bigbud i have is liquid and i use 4ml/gal of that and when i start my OD i start them right at 4ml/gal.

Hey Vira bro.. Go get yourself 2 of these.. One for each of your tents. Roughly £14 each in B&Q.. Keeps the temps stable in the tent bro.. It's v good for supplemental warmth..



So it's big bud powder you've got... Ok I'd just go full strength with it mate.. She'll be starting to crave PK now.. So give it to her..

You do know not to be using sup potash in your soil... Don't you.. Of course you do.. For your soilless gurls just use your BB & Overdrive for bloom boost & carboload if you have it.

At least I don't think you can use sup potash in plagron?

Peace Holmes..

Ok .... mmmm nah i didn't know potash was a bad idea in dirt just assumed it would be OK lol..................tba i have not made much effort to understand all the nutes i use .Was so overwhelmed by them all at the start i just kinda left that bit out & copied the pros !! .i can be a dumbass at times ok

Right beys ...full whicker with the bigbud ... ditch the potash ... & add some carboload ... & OD when the time comes... New revised feed for fast buds ,day40 will be...

rhizo 2ml/L
ionic bloom 4ml/L
bigbud 0.5g/L
carboload 0.5ml/L ??

Those heaters look good KTD,..are they thermostatically controlled mate ?.will look out for some for sure , the rad i have is good & could fit in the cab so will mess about with that as well. I forgot to put it by the door that night though ,thats why the res was 12oC ,& the airpump gets air from outside !... Cal/mg looks a lot worse today BUT only on the leaves that have the most intense LED ??. The rest all seems ok .Should i change res now & up it again ...or up EC ?. She seems stable on 1.8 but i think it is slowly dropping & just not registering on this stick ,as it only goes up/down by EC 0.2 at a time ,& im topping off with 1.8 as well . Not sure what to do ... Maybe 17 cal/mg in next res & go for EC2.0 & see what happens , have not had much tip burn yet ?? . I fkn hate the stuff & shes been stressed enough this last week+ !!.... maybe im making up the res in a bad way?...or wrong amounts of supps ? .. think i need to tie the closes ed buds down a bit more ect ect :head:...& is the BB powder good for the BM in DWC ?? .prob not ,she should have plenty

well i am a noob youguys

 

[DWCocha]

note.... i have not been upping the EC much the last 2/3 weeks.. she was blatantly saying when it was too much...

but i have been upping the supps ... well carbo , potash & cal/mg ...

looking back i think this has made the base nute drop the last week from 50ml - 45ml ,to keep EC around 1.7/1.8 ...

 

[Kush T]

Ok... So your stick goes up/down by .1 EC... When it's flashing between say 1.8-2.0 then the EC is 1.9.

So mate in future I'd stick with AN nutrients/additives with the soilless/airpot growing.. Proven results right here on AFN. For DWC.. Honestly mate.. The Genesis formula for me is the best.. Very simple to use & the plants love it... All you need extra for that range is some superior potash OR PK13/14 (I prefer sup potash) & carboload... No root stims nothing... It's awesome bro. Don't be putting bb powder in your DWC man.. Your base nutes, sup potash & carboload will give you excellent results.. The more you put in the more toxic it can get bro... Try to keep it simple & you'll see results..

Yes the wee fan heater is thermostatically controlled.. It's keeping my cab cozy (along with the radiator).

Good morning AFN,hope you are all well?. .... so i kinda read between the lines here Kush n PR & cancelled the BB powder & got a L of liquid for the fastbuds insteaad !:cough:will get some AN base nutes soon as well, but not for a week or so (works slow).These two will now be getting ...

rhizo
ionic bloom(AN soon!)
carboload
bigbud

Blue mammoth-day 69 i think .... res change today & i have a feeling my mix is not perfect so.... im going to drop rhizo to 7.5ml & drop zym altogether .... up cal/mg to 18ml ,potash to 12.5ml & carboload to 20ml ....Hope dropping zym & rhizo will allow for more aqua flores as this has actually dropped the last res due to EC staying the same but additives going up ... EC will be 2.0 & monitor .
While she's out of the cab im planning on some more tying down ect ...not loads but just enough to get some tucked away buds closer & the too close ones tied back a bit more.

I'm self advertising my self but check my signature for the solution

:thumbs:A great thread Ko... & solution to a universal DWC problem

....i can keep temps good if i remember to put the heater by the door lol. I will be cladding the buckets in the summer for sure !


update with pics of all 3 tonight .... i'll be busy till then

:cough::cough:

:buds:

 

[Kush T]

Hey Vira I meant to ask.. What do you add back/top up with?? Plain water or 1/2 strength or even (please no!!) full strength?? If its full strength stop that straight away.. It'll fuck up your ratios in the bucket mate.. I add back with plain water or like just under 1/2 strength feed.. Depending on what the EC & water levels are doing..

Just putting that out there in case you didn't know bro.. :smokebuds:

Yeah the liquid BB will be handier then the powder.. Why don't you give your mammoth BB for a week or two then hit her hard with the superior potash for her PK boost week?? BB is good shit for starting flowers bro..
