Nutes and Weeks they are needed :
BigBud and Overdrive at the least.
Advanced Big Bud (5ml gal weeks 3-6)
Advanced Overdrive (5ml gal weeks 7-
Flush with pure pH'd water. Week 9
They're not very expensive and you get pretty good results.
Voodoo Juice® for a stronger, more robust root system …
Big Bud® — our world famous bloom booster — to bulk up your buds …
B-52® for extra vitamins with growth cofactors and finally …
Overdrive® as a late-phase bud bulker to keep your plants growing until the last day before harvest!
Carboload, B-52, Bigbud.
Bud Candy is the equivalent of molasses in water
Dsaid :
recommend:
3 part base nutrients, voodoo juice, big bud,
B-52 and of course bud candy might get really fluffy buds this way just an FYI.
run nutrients in half but BigBud and overdrive full strength.
taran and piranha do heard of both?They both stimulate root growth, better root growth,
bigger plants, fatter buds. Both are too expensive and you only use them twice the whole growth.
Nute Info:
Add the additives as specified on the bottles,
then bring the solution up to desired ppm/ec with the pure blend boom. Pure blend pro and cal/mag on their own grow amazing plants.
The additives just make it all nicer. Just my experience.
pH to 5.8 hydro, or 6.1 Coco, or 6.5 soil.
Micro, Grow, Bloom.
These will maybe be added at more incremental parts each time.
Up to 4 ml. The Big Bud and Bud Candy are at 2 ml/L each.
Its states 4 ml per liter on the nutrient calculator,id start at maybe half that.
Grow nutes info:
Yes the micro should go in first followed by growth then bloom.
fed every 2nd water
I used it for my last growth..... I fed every 2nd water.... what i used for 3rd wk of veg.....1ml bloom..2 ml micro..2ml grow..& 2 half ml cal-mag that was my first feeding now.... so increase if/when needed.... in 5 gallons of 6.5 ph water
Soil Preps:
next time you grow go to lowes or home depot get a bag of topsoil, a bag of composted manure,
small bag of worm castings and a couple bags of perlite throw them all together, mix it up good"
Soil prep dr buggabee
50 percent peat moss or coco and 50 percent vermiculite
Add lime powder
acidify soil with lemon or coffee ground 6.5 ph
2 tablespoons to 1 gallon water for lemon
White vinegar same 2 tbs 1 gallon - Been using lemon juice from the 99 cents store for years wth no issues at all. My ph from tap is about 8 and I use about 1.5 tablespoons of lemon juice to get it where I want it.
1x 1ml syringe
1x fresh lemon
Whatever way you choose to extract (I hand pressed)
Per litre of water add 1ml at a time using a ph meter.
The reason some have to adjust the water is simply the alkalinity in some locations around the world.
Mine for instance is 7.8 meaning I need to drop 1.3 for optimum so per litre I used 2.5ml. This took me to 6.5*.

General Hydrophonics Micro Grow Bloom
453 Grams in 1 pound...........we have 120 grams(salts GH)
we need 1 LB/GAL and only have 120G not 1 lb
453 g = 1 lb = 1 gallon = 3.78 Liters = 16 cups
339 g = 3/4 pound = 3/4 Gallon = 2.83 Liters = 12 Cups
226 g = half a pound = 1/2 Galon = 1.89 Liters = 8 Cups
113 g = 1/4 of a pound = 1/4 Gallon = 0.94 Liters = 4 Cups = 946 ML <-----*******
(946 ML Enough for approx 17 Feeds)
or
Try 3 grams base with micros & 2 grams cal nit per gallon (4 Liters=17cups).
Adjust EC from the looks of plants.
Same with 3 g bloom, 2 cal/micros.
Run the flora trio @ 775-850 PPM for most strains and you'll grow great dope.
I PH adjusted to 5.8. Nothing else. 872PPM. 1.8 EC. *1800 ec)
120 Grams = 3 grams Base w micro = 40 feeds
GH flora pro feed:
Try 3 grams base with micros, 2 grams cal nit per gallon (~4L). Adjust EC from the looks of plants.
Same with 3 g bloom, 2 cal/micros.
Run the flora trio @ 775-850 PPM for most strains and you'll grow great dope. I PH adjusted to 5.8. Nothing else. 872PPM. 1.8 EC. *1800 ec)
very important to check the PH of your runoff water also. For example, if it is going in at 6.2 and the runoff is 6.8, you have a salt build-up and have to flush your plants w/ PH adjusted water & then check runoff. This is very important, because at higher or lower PH levels plants will take in more or less of some nutrients. Use good quality water with a PPM of less then 150.
When using GH Flora series always mix your micro first, stir well, then add your grow, stir well, then your bloom, again stirring well. Failure to mix your micro first will result in certain nutrients being locked out & unavailable to the plant. Measurements are given in teaspoons per gallon using GH Flora series.
FEEDLINGS (Day 1 - 14)
During this stage your plants need no nutrients. Plants have enough energy stored to last them roughly 2 weeks. I've seen many grows ruined because people killed their plants during this period.
VEGETATIVE GROWTH (Day 15 - 45)
Early - 1 tsp (5ml) each - micro , grow & bloom. Adjust PH to 6.2
Middle - 1 1/4 tsp (6.25 ml) micro, 1 1/4 tsp grow, 1 tsp bloom. Adjust PH to 6.2
Late - 1 1/2 tsp (7.5 ml) micro, 1 1/2 tsp grow, 1 tsp bloom. Adjust PH to 6.2
FLOWERING (Day 46 — 106, more or less depending on strain)
Early - 1 1/2 tsp micro, 1 tsp grow, 1 1/2 tsp bloom. Adjust PH to 6.2
Middle - 1 3/4 tsp (8.75 ml) micro, 3/4 tsp (3.75 ml) grow, 1 3/4 tsp bloom. Adjust PH to 6.3
Late - 2 tsp (10ml) micro, 1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) grow, 2 tsp bloom. Adjust PH to 6.3
Later - 2 1/2 tsp (12.5 ml) micro, 1/2 tsp grow, 3 tsp (15 ml) bloom. Adjust PH to 6.4
Always remember to water your plants w/ plain PH adjusted water the last 2 weeks to wash out any built up salts & to try & reduce the chemical taste that unused ferts leave behind in the weed. The plants used in this example were grown using a 400 watt HPS. If you use this information & have good genetics, I guarantee you will have a good amount of high quality weed in 3 1/2 months. Peace
Home made CO2 :
one packet yeast 3 cups sugar in a 5 gallon bucket. put a fish tank heater in it keep temp 90-95 drill hole for a tube to direct the co2
lasts a long time
1/2 tbsp of yeast and 3 to 4 cups of sugar. it lasts about 3 to 4 weeks.
1/2 - 1 tsp of yeast and 2 cups of sugar works great I usually like it at 3/4 tsp of sugar for 2 cups of sugar. The yeast eats the sugar pretty fast so you need more sugar.
enerally it's 2 cups sugar and a half teaspoon of yeast in 2 liters of water for slow release (2-3 weeks).
Then add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon (1.25 g to 2.5 g) of baking soda to each 1 liter bottle. The baking soda prevents the yeast from acidifying too fast after producing CO2.

PH Infos:
ph of between 6 and 7 for cannabis. During the flowering stage, the optimal pH range increases slightly to between 6.5 and 7.5 ph// 6.5 is good
veg is good at 5.8-6.5 but I recommend 6.5.
Does cannabis need more phosphorus or potassium?
During flowering, your cannabis plant will require extra potassium. You will normally increase potassium levels at the same time, or right after, increasing phosphorus and decreasing nitrogen at the end of pre-flowering when the plant has stopped growing.
N-Nitrogen
P-Phosporus
K-Potassium
I go up to around 1-4-2 to 1-5-3 in late flower as a "booster." You can play with doing that versus not doing it, seeing if you notice a difference. Same thing with 1-3-2. Try that versus 1-2-3, 1-2-2 and 1-1-1.
Regarding the strength, shoot for 500-700ppm (US, Hanna, .5 scale) in flower. I made a spreadsheet which can tell you the quantity to use to achieve that ppm (if you don't have a meter). You want to watch for burnt tips and also salt buildup. If your runoff ph becomes acidic over time and the runoff ppms rise, you're feeding too much. You can water for a lot of runoff to minimize that happening, or simply feed less.
Theres a few rules to follow so u don't throw the soil right outta wack . Cal - mag and nitrogen - potassium i believe are the main ones.
BigBud and Overdrive at the least.
