Hopefully last post shows Dutch pro info. PH bit was why I was confused. Note this is soil autoflower not the plain soil nutes.

Yo Tripdog, I had a look at the chart and I see they also advise an EC of 2.0... Go figure. If I'd give my girls that much food they'd die of obesity! Or salt build up.
I've only received 500ml Dutch pro A + B as a sample once and I was not really amused. So I have almost no first hand experience. But here in Holland it's not the preferred brand amongst my professional friends. Here it's seen as a lower end nute brand. I don't mean to diss your gear bro! Excuse my bluntness? I'm just saying this so you don't put to much clout in their schedule. [emoji6]
Actually most nute producers want you to use much more than needed.... Myself, I use about 1/4th for young plants, then raise it to half strenght during heavy budding and towards the end I go back to 1/4th before flushing. This is in coir though. In new soil.... I wait till I see the need for food and then around half strength. Even with light mixes which boast having nourishment for 2 weeks or so, I wait with feeding till I see the need. The 2 weeks they advertise are meant for full grown plants. Not clones or seedlings.
Anyway, I'm rambling on.... Sharing one! Lol!

Hi faded. Not much point coming here unless I take the advice I am given. Going to go with peoples advice and up the pH. In a couple of months time when I have space again I might grow two plants and go for a soil pH of 6.4 on one and 5.8 on the other. It could just be a missprint. At least I understand how the pH affects the plants a bit more now. Got a bid on a soil probe. Looks like a accurate 8 but different make and set at ph7. Have found a couple of digital ones on eBay with a probe on a lead.

now that I think about it bro. you can feed at that low of ph as long as your starting soil ph is higher. like 6.6 or I like 6.8. and as your soil dries the ph will rise.. so yeah im sorry for answering before thinking. lmao

tripp. they got a lot of shitty knock offs that aren't worth shit bro.. if you can save up $50 and get the accurate 8 would be best. trust me I bought tons. most never even work once. no lie

Hey there TRIPDOG,

Just been on the Dutch Pro website and taken a screenshot of their soil feeding schedule which is somewhat different from the one you appear to have been using. Was your chart supplied to you with your nutrients? If so, I think it may well be out of date! If you look there is no difference in the amounts of recommended nutrients per litre (ok, they are using 100l instead of 1l for the calculations) but, on this one there is no mention of the 5.8pH being the 'Optimal' value. Have they realised they may be in error?



Hope this helps?

Hi Mikey. The chart you show is standard soil nutes. Top right on webpage is a star saying new autoflower nutes. Click on it and it takes you to autoflower nutes page with chart at bottom.

Hey Mikey , I think you both have the right chart but the chart Tripdog has is for their auto flower line of nutes and yours is for there regular line of soil nutes ...... The guy at my grow store told me that his rep from Dutch pro told him that there is no difference between the regular soil nutes and the auto flower ....the bottle just has a sticker on it that says auto flowering ..... Now I don't know how much truth is behind that but I kind of beleive him ......
