Nutrients Q4 2018 - DutchPro Communal Grow Test

[jingo]

PS: I bought my Titan controller about 3 years ago when I got my stealth box carbon filter. Haven't had a problem with either one yet. I can't say enough about the stealth box carbon filter, I used to replace carbon filters about every 9 months and I haven't done anything to it in 3 years.

Yeah I'm curious to see how my next grow with these nutrients does also. I want to see if they go into bloom quicker than if I'm using general hydroponics, it seems that way to me. That would be desirable to me, most of the times I'm unhappy with my plants getting too large.

I had some odd colors back about a week and a half ago that I thought were going to cause me to use Cal Mag. But honestly the plants are all looking a nice Healthy Green now and I haven't used a bit of Cal Mag so far.

That separation in your Reservoir is kind of strange it must be because you're nutrients recirculate from the auto pots?

no that was before adding the sub pump to res today it looks clear...I cleaned everything out yesterday and made new batch up with pump running and now not seeing that just yet, I hope it stays that way..Mine staying smaller for sure.. I know I owe them a better test, to many new things all at once... The autopot test would been much better run using my 3part since I am used to that, running a new type of nutrient in the res has been very challenging..I don't know correct doses yet, I have 3 different strains it's not easy switching from 3part to 2part and changing the way you do things..the res being probably biggest factor for me....Once i figure this nutrient out and also the autopots I'm sure I can do much better..Mine look okay, but I know much of this is bcoz I not really have control once everything is in res...I'll figure things out, I guess doesn't help I had so many problems come up...I'm sure if I was hand feeding with this Dutchpro I probably would not be having any issues right now w/ calmag and things like that.. I never mixed nutrients up ahead of time before and just let them sit like that... It's also takes planning what you "think" they will do 10-15days out when in a res, your mixing everything almost 2weeks ahead any little things that come up now throw that feed off in a big way...

I like this titian one much better! Thats what I get for trying save a few $$ and it can be used for co2 for now this one only meant for my extraction no-need for that to always be on...so this make things nice to control exact times and only brief amount instead of 15 or 30min cycles thats un-needed for plants that not even blooming yet just a huge waste of power, these recyclers sure save power and give ya control..

@Unique you've always surprised me how you can grow with so many different lights and nutrients and setups. It's really pretty amazing using just whatever kind of nutrients come your way.

I'm thinking maybe I should be using SM 90, I have to put a lot of Si into my water just to keep my pH coming out in the normal range. the sm-90 should boost the ph up quite a bit and maybe I could lighten up on the SI.

Thanks man, I guess I always had try to get by with what i had..so I always had to learn quickly...

I didn't use Any si this grow, I did use a little sm90...That stuff I really like...also haven't used any terpinator this is a first.... I never gone without that, but I been trying keep this all dutchpro...the sm90 I been using for foliar not in my res... only additive is calmag....

Hey Man I gotta Say I really Love this Titian so much better for a few reasons; first the century I had even though both are analog the century one was not very accurate at all if I had set for a 5min run sometimes it only run 3mins other times 7-8mins and this one I notice is highly accurate for an analog that impressed me alone, but that wasn't the only difference this one is programmable from 1sec-60min run or off time and also can be setup w/ 24hr or just daytime(for co2) or just night-time(not sure what that would be used for lol but this is quite the recycler for sure!

Hey Guy's here is another update of my DutchPro grow, I'm starting to figure this nutrient out(I think had I did this test hand watering,my results would be much better as there is a learning curve to using autopot res, the feed is not immediate like hand watering) I think things are picking up now and my plants certain getting better color a couple are doing very well, them ones about to start the stretch so we'll see how I do.. Enjoy!
