Dutch Passion Dutch Passion AutoXtreme in 30 litre airpot

[pop22]

Yea we are... Its high aint it?
My son has 3 ears and Mrs True has none... Im sure the water is fine

I would like to look at a reverse osmosis system but Ive got enough on my plate at the moment.
Not sure if totally plain water is better or worse for my plants?

Even just an inline filter will help some. It won't make the water great, but it will definitely be better.

Calling all AFN members !!
...Are you reading me OVER? :dance2:


Ive got an feeding EC question if I may

Im in soil in airpots and approaching week 7.
1. What feeding schedule would you be on right now ?
2. What EC would you be aiming for now and in the weeks to come ?

Im using the following in my mix.
2ml per litre Plant Magic bloom nutrients
2ml per litre Plant Magic boost (PK 13/14)
0.5ml per litre Plant Magic cal-mag
0.3ml per litre Plant Magic bio silicon (this is mainly in there to up my ph)

I make up a 10l bucket up of this lovely soup and then plonk in a golf ball air stone and cover up for a few hours or sometimes over night.
I figure this gets everything mixed up and lots of lovely oxygen in there.
This gives me an EC of 1.4 on my Blue Labs EC truncheon, this is then hand watered in.

Base settings of my plain water in a 200l water butt are as follows:
Water temp 22c
PH 8.3
EC 6

If you have something to share, THANKS in advance

Might as well look at the lad that brought you here

I get asked for this a lot so thought I would do a thread.

Firstly the PH of my tap water is 7.2 and after adding nutes its 6.6 so I don't use PH up or down. Secondly I mix all my nutes into 5L bottles so the measurements are based on that.

Seedling to week 2 just give water (no PH adjustment)

Week 2 to 4 - 6ml Sensi grow A&B (12ml total),3ml of voodoo juice,3ml of Sensi Zym and 3ml Carboload.

Week 4 to 6 - 8ml Sensi grow A&B, 4ml B52,4ml Carboload.

Flush

Week 6 to 8 - 10ml Sensi bloom A&B,5ml voodoo juice,5ml Sensi Zym,5ml carbload and 5ml Big Bud.

Week 8 to 10 - 10ml Sensi bloom A&B,5ml b52,5ml Carboload and 5ml of overdrive.

Feed daily and add Sensi calmag if required,these are just guidelines so back off or increase strength if required.

Thanks @Dude thats decent of you to post that
Im still wondering though about actual EC readings at each stage of feeding.
I wonder what Tangs EC was when he was feeding.

I was not aware but apparently at EC6 I have pretty hard water.
I only have to look at my plain water and the EC rises...

What do people suggest the EC should be for the seedling stage, pre flowering stage and flowering stage all in soil?
Hey if someone does know the answer, same for RDWC, I read with RDWC the nutes get dropped much lower again.

Thanks in advance AFN

ITS ONLY MR BLOODY TANG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry mate, Im only messing.. Im still chuffed Ive got myself on the same forum as you
Hey lets be buddies like )))
We could be big mates me n you (HA HA)
Oh and thanks for the message as well.

Things are getting better this end mate.
Growth has kicked in again, so my PH improvements must be being felt by the plants.
The smell now is GORGEOUS !!!!!!!!!!! I did a bit of leaf plucking last night on my now not so sick plants and came out wreaking of skunk.

I couldn't get it off my hands, in the end after touching everything in my house and leaving sticky oily skunky finger prints everywhere I went to my garage for some alcohol wipes... Im skipping and dancing today, now I can see these lovely big buds growing its brilliant.

I usually wear latex gloves when in room, so no alcohol needed to clean up T. if you have been outside in garden or elsewhere with outdoor greeneridge, make sure you change your shoes and other before you enter culture area, and be aware of 'Bio Security" for your room. Insect cross contamination is easy done T.....

....... Mites and other critters can get in on you and infect the room. Another reason to wear the latex glove, as mites are so small you wont even see the critter before it's to late. keep an eye on Bio Security,............ if it happens it can be a pisser m8........cats/dogs can carry to, so a no no in room, airborne critters black/white fly and others too, keep door shut as much as pos when working in space etc.......................... ............good luck for grow T...........

when your fingers/hands are sticky rub em with a small amount (small does go a long way) of peanut butter before washing

works a charm and leaves your hands so soft the woman wants em touching her

peace
