What is lucas formula??
G-M-B (Grow-Micro-Bloom)
0-5-10 - For Vegetative cycle (24/0)
0-8-16 - For Flowering cycle (12/12)
Now, I have ordered Develop, Small, and Flowers. Is there any use for Develop at all? I'm very new to hydro increasing, but to me it would add up to use grow. I've been looking for different vitamin soups views, but it looks like the Lucas System has a monopoly on it! I'm questioning if anyone has any proof that using Develop is bad or excellent. If it's bad, I think it will have a awesome position relaxing in my underground room doing nothing, heh.
Lucas Summary : -
Lucas Method, sometimes known as the Lucas Rate, is less challenging than it at first seems. It is nothing more than a primary program of vitamins to provide your vegetation during both the vegetative, and the blooming condition.
The unique program uses 2 components of the Common Hydroponics 3-part FLORA sequence (Gro, Small, Bloom) vitamin program, but Lucas Method may also be used with Innovative Vitamins and minerals, GH's dry nutes (Maxibloom), etc.
How do you use it?
Easy. Add 8ml of Plants Small (dark red stuff) to 1 quart of water*, mix, and then add 16ml of Plants Flowers (pink stuff) into the water, and mix. Done - unless you're increasing in coco. If so, see below.

NO
It's 0-5-10 for non-HID light, 0-8-16 for HID lighting. There is no difference between the veg and flowering formulas.
yubu- I'd keep running Lucas at 900 PPM and use bloom enhancers that would add about 300 more on top of it, like RL420 said.

I thought this was to be mixed per gallon, not quart... if so I have been under feeding by a mile... Yet still 900-1000ppm. Gallon, isn't it?

I am starting to feel a bit stupid when it comes to measuring my PPM, I don't even know what the conversion rate on my meter is... ignorantly enough I just recently got it and basically dipped it in and took down the number -- end of story. I guess I will refer to the manual but once I figure that out I need to figure out how to apply it as well -- You'd think the meter would just tell me what the PPM is and that was as simple as that, apparently not... My plants seem very happy though so I guess whatever I am doing is OK. I am also going to raise my PPM some more... I'm around 1000 right now but have read plenty of people getting as high as 1500-1800 with great results if you gradually work your way up. I think I may shoot for 1100 this week, 1200 next week... etc based on how they respond.

Your pen is going to tell you the number in total, but it will not tell you the ratios!
you need to studie up on npk dailing in your npk will allow you to know whats in
you water or res.
