Jack's 20 - 30 - 10 and adjusting pH question

[Beachwalker]

Hold on a minute I want to recheck a measurement before I repost this question because after reading the post I think I might have been off on my measurement

This is not a bad on jacks thread I love the stuff I used it sometime ago with great success in hydro, but this is my first time in soil

Im about to get some jacks in the mail. I am interested to know how it goes for you. Im running in promix 2/3,Bush Doctor 1/6, and fox farm potting mix 1/6. I am nervous but excited because I hear great things.

As soon as I posted and reread this I think I saw where I went wrong in the math in my comparison and although I won't be mixing the same again for a week or so I'm pretty sure I saw the answer to my own question but didn't know how to delete the post, but you won't be disappointed with Jack's I've used it before with great success but not for quite a while

20-30-10 is not the best ratio to use. Way too high in P in relation to the others. Better for tomatoes than pot.

I used Jack's 20-20-20 through veg a few years back. Worked well. I did use Jacks citrus booster 20-10-20 last year outdoors. I will be using the Citrus again this year.

What strength are you running the Citrus booster?

Back in the early 90's I ran peters in a closet grow. I used the 20-20-20 for veg and the 10-30-20 for flower with 10-60-10 shultz for the last 10 days. Worked great, excellent flavor, good yields, usually got almost a pound off a 430 watt philips son agro HPS. I knew nothing about pH at the time so I was lucky with my tap water. lol

Never seen the 20-30-10

4-20-39 is designed to be used with equal part by mass of calcium nitrate.

Use half that of epsom salt and you have the mix many commerical grow facilities in Colorado use.

Fairly strong, when I used it.They were all 8x8 trees. I alternated with other types of feedings. I don't measure the ppm's per feeding.
