hi all, nice postings in this threat. We are monitoring closely peoples real world results with AF.
In the future, we are probably going to bump up the MAGNESIUM AMINO ACID CHELATES in Mega Crop, seems like a few people are getting "CalMag" issues which seems to just be Mag issues. This may be because a lot of people are using heavy Coco medium, or strains are heavy Mag feeders, or for whatever reason we think increasing Mag will be a good decision.
Also, we are closely monitoring the "Nitrogen" level feedback, if some people are saying the N is too high? MC can use used for veg and flowering/budding, however it seems like Auto's spend a higher % of their life in flower/budding phase which may mean the N is possible too high?
As a solution if you have this problem, you can lower the MC dosage (to keep the N down), and supplement with a PK/K boost like Bud Explosion or Sweet Candy (both of those products have 0 Nitrogen and will boost K or PK). We can possibly up the PK and lower the N in Mega Crop for the future, we are keeping an eye on this if its needed. If we did do this, then the N would be lower, and it would be more of a dedicated bloom formula (which I think a lot of people around here would like)! In this case then we would ask people using it in veg phase to supplement with a separate product to boost Nitrogen.
We really want MEGA CROP to be a 1 part Cannabis formula, but some people may find they are getting better result with an extra PK/K booster for Auto's. So as mentioned we can adjust formula in the future to help with this as needed. Other nutrient companies like to split up products into 5-10 different products because they can easily pass the illusion of charging you a higher overall cost because you are under the impression that you are getting 5-10 different things. We do not want to do this, actually logistically speaking and for our shipping/packaging operation, its much much easier to just have as few products as possible to simplify sending orders Once you have 5 different products with 5 different sizes each, that brings your different SKU products to 25, which makes shipping/order fulfillment much more complicated. So obviously there is a price increase needed to account for having more products because of the more complicated inventory handling. Eventually we would like to make things as simple as possible, maybe having MEGA CROP and 1-2 other products max which are all optional.
With separate products, a sugar/carbohydrate product will always have to be separate dedicated formula, because of the fermentation that can happen and that carbohydrate products are not suited to every growing type.
Great to see a company that actually cares about results and listens to feedback.
Also it would be really useful if you could include a measuring spoon.
Even just a 1 gram one like what comes with a tub of protein or creatine.
Like this scoop.
Then everyone would be working with the same measurements
