Don't start them at 1000PPM. That's INSANE.
Yea, after I recommended 1/4 strength and I think someone after me mentioned it too. When I saw he started at 1000, I though wtf, did he think 4000 was normal?
This seems to happen with new growers a lot here huh? They ask for advice, given good advice then not follow it. Sometimes it seems they don't read the responses. What was that thread I read when I first came to RIU, a new grower did everything wrong and continued to not follow advice but his own plan when everyone told him to start over? I wasn't just fucking hilarious, but it really was educational. The advice given to the guy, although not followed, was pretty good generally and the problems he had by not following suggestion were predicted correctly by the more experienced growers. I know I learned a lot and thought it should've been stickyd. I think there was some controversey that he was a sock puppet though of a more experienced grower. If anyone knows what thread I'm talking about, can you link it, I can't find it in my history and I'm so fucking high right now I can't remember if we ever found out the truth or if he ever came back after his last disappearence.
