Dialing In MEGA CROP for Auto's

[Anasazi]

Have you tried that super cropping thing?

You can bend tops over. You might not like doing it the first time, breaking a stem to make it go sideways. I've used this method whenever i got tops that are too high. Also, are you adding .5g of epsom salts with your feedings? Have fun in your jungle!

Maybe I need to try that cropping thing lol. I've been adding 3.75g MG per 15 gallons of water. I believe I'm following one of manogreen's schedules but no telling how outdated it is tbh lol. Using 2 part.

Is that per "1.5 gallons" of water ?

Day 84, I'm @ 5g/gallon, one gallon every two days...

Awesome colas! and no its literally just 3.75g for 15 gallons of water. I'm doing RDWC if that matters lol.

I think it is now safe to say I'm pleased with this Mega Crop one part grow !

Feeding by weight/volume of water is easy and with ProMix HP there is no need to ph water in.

The only hick up I had was when I fed Bud Explosion to two of my girls at the beginning of flower instead of after the first week. New growth was light green and the new leaves were cork screwed. A quick flush and within the week things returned to normal.

After that I only fed BE intermittently and I'm not sure if it helped ?

Worked my way up to 6.5g/gallon. 3 gallon fiber pots took a gallon every two days.

Two down, three to go ! Pictures were taken with studio strobes and gray backdrop.

In my calculations you get a better balance with the Epsom Salt than the BE.

I have updated the target numbers ranges based on Harley Smiths chart.

@Mañ'O'Green Could you help me understand how you got calcium 127.58 ppm in reference to the 3.25g of MC with 1g epsom. Thanks!

Yes the starting water PPM is assumed to be 50% Ca in this old formula. That is a bit high 30% turns out to be a better guess when you don't know how much Ca is in your tap water.

So 50 PPM + the 77.58 from the MC is 127.58

Thank you- my well water is only 38ppm . so I should estimate 11-12ppm
