Veg and Bloom Grow

I use ppm too, but since there are three different measurements of ppm, it's meaningless when used in a public discussion where not everyone uses the same ppm conversion. EC is EC is EC.

except no one uses it.

i use Truncheon. As should anyone. When I talk PPM, its truncheon PPM.

Are we all supposed to make a mental note of what tester everyone uses? What's wrong with Hannah?

I really think you're missing the point, but based on what I'm seeing in your posts, that's nothing new for you. Best of luck with your deficiencies.

EC is universal and convenient but regardless of the measuring stick, nearly 40% of your total mix being made up of a bloom booster is usually not a good idea. Measure that on whatever scale you'd like, it's still nearly 40%.

I think its more like 20%, gotta take into consideration my tea, carbs and cal mag too is in that ppm

One thing ive been hearing is the the 16-10-30 of Veg+BLoom is probably going to kill your Mychorrizae since its higher in P. So if you're using it in Veg and inocculating with Mykos or something you are wasting your money.

Thoughts?

Not true. I researched this when I chose to use the Promix HP with mycorhizae. Veg+Bloom sits just below the threshold of P levels that can negatively affect beneficials.

I'd like to point out that using any additives we will probably need to work by weight/volume rather than PPM or EC. P and K do not show up on a EC/TDS Meter with accuracy.

Lucius, I would like to know how many grams of MOAB, milliliters of floraliscious you used per gallon. This might explain how you overdosed your garden.

Looking great Captain!

Good question Robert. I've done so many different substrates that now I'm considering doing my next run with a PK or a Carb to see if I can get different results. Anyone using a PK product or Carb product with Veg+Bloom? At what rate?
GH's florabloom 0-5-4 is what im using with mine in flower...works great, but recently i discovered i have a phosphorus deficiency but everything has been corredted and growth should proceed

so your using a 16-10-30 along with a 0-5-4 and you think you had a phosphorus def? I highly doubt that. More like nute burn.

My garden is good pretty good thusfar. We are tapering off now completely. Just carbs and Floralicious.

Blue Dream in ProMix @ 1.2EC, this one should be a good reference as Blue Dream is very well known and distributed. I flushed today for the first time in this particular plants life cycle.
