I had too many issues I couldn't resolve with Jack's. I gave up after 2 flower cycles of diminished yields. I went back to maxi bloom. No problems.

At least you know what works for you:) Took me awhile to get jacks down.. main thing i learned is i use half strength and plants seem much happier.

I use jacks classic blossom in flower and love it. The buds get a nice vitamin zing that can’t be beaten flavor wise.

What ppm or EC are you running and ph?

Well after I seen the clawing I dropped the calnite to 1/2. Im running at an e.c of 1.8. Currently it's only Jack's. Nothing else. Ph is currently 6.2.

On a side note, my other ladies of a different strain are killing with Jack's. No burn or anything at all. Also I know Jack's the shit when the ph holds for like 2-3 weeks... daaaaaaamn

Yeah.. i found that if you get the feed about right ph stays solid for a long time.. I personally would drop your EC to 1.6 on the problem plant.. that's with cal/mag and jacks total ec.. I have had some plants that could take more and some that did exactly what yours is doing. Now i run all my plants around 1.6 and this last grow is my healthiest yet.. less is more :)

Will do! Funny though my other girls are one at 1180 and is cool the other is 1835 (didn't add back anything in 2 or so weeks) and not a problem. I guess it is what it is ‍♂

Here's a quick snap. I see that reducing the concentration helps but still struggling to get rid of that claw

I would be careful reducing your CalNit at this stage. That plant looks fine and a little clawing in early veg. will almost certainly go away later.

Jacks seems to work pretty good but for me I wouldn't run it since my water temps are too cold to mix the stuff and I'm not heating my water. I personally use AN Connoisseur Bloom base start to finish @ 15ml/gal flushing the last 2 weeks with pure RO. Zero issues and the most consistent results. I don't buy veg nutrients, I just simply add additional CalMag+ from Botanicare for a nitrogen boost.

I agree with PK boosters being bullsh*t. Usually they just ruin the quality of the bud for me. People who think they can flush it out of the plant once its soaked into it are dumb.

I mix the nutrients in a cup of hot water from the sink. Once it’s dissolved I pour that into my reservoir. Easy peasy
