Can't believe this thread is up to 800 pages, though most of the action moved over to SB's website...

Here is the latest updated pdf of the entire thread. Not sure if I'll do one when and if it hit's 900...but you never know.

You can get the pdf here...or in my sig.

This question is open to all. When flushing with sweet can you just not us it at all in the flower formula seems like it would save you some sweet in the long run if you just us it for the flush as oppose to both. O one more question since stink still uses his veg formula for the 1st 2 weeks of flower would it b wise to us the MH light on them as well, just a thought. Sorry if these have already been answered but iam only on page 496. Thanks for any response, well back to reading, only 300 plus pages left, lol.

Hi Stink etal,
I finally ran out of the nutes I had on hand and bought some bontanicare at your recommendation. I had been running General Hydroponics with good success so I wanted to use it up before making the switch to recommendation. I seem to be running up against a problem, a couple of them actually.
1. I seem to have a separation problem with all or most of my nutes falling to the bottom of the res and ending up with a week mix of water with a black bottom. This is the most disturbing problem I have.

2. I have quite a bit of foam in the res while I am running a bubbler system. I could eliminate the bubbles to take care of this, but thought I would ask what everyone else is doing.

3. I have a scum layer on top of the mix as well.

My plants seem to be doing fairly well although the plants are not quite as green as they were with GH formula. My plants are from sugar smack feminized seeds. I have been growing this strain for many years and have several other growers using them as well. If anything, this strain is too strong for me anymore. I may have to go to something a little less laid back then this strain is. I am thinking a white strain as I do want the laid back effect, just not to the point of a comma, haha.
Thanks in advance and sorry about the thread jack but I know there are a lot of Botanicare users in Stink buds thread.

Well it could be true Organic nutrients are more touchy about temp. I guess the ideal water temp is 65F but others are running higher. Can you drop some numbers out temps, water temps, age of res, is there a smell?, slimy stuff?

ive decided hydroplex is NOT necessary and not worth the extra dime
i dont think it hurts at all.............but.....................i like the pbp and LK and sweet and cal/mag as the perfect mix
