if you are in the US, dump that hydroguard. pick up a pint of Southern Ag Garden Friendly Fungicide instead. same stuff, million x more concentrated and cheaper

i've been using it for a few years. works fine in dwc. 1 mL per 10 gals seems to be effective

Well.. i am admittedly a shit grower.. BUT i will share my 2 top things.. PH matters WAY more than i gave it credit for and buying a Apera PH60 pen was the best money i spent in growing.. it's not cheap but it stays calibrated very well in 2 months i calibrated it one time and just check it now and then.. i hated using drops..
Other thing is less is more with nutes and that for me was a hard lesson to the point that on my current grow i slammed them with 1000ppm like 3 weeks in and they got really sad.. now i stay at 600-700 and they are as happy as i have seen
it's all learning.

oh BTW.. if you try AG.. i learned from another user here to put like 3 gallons of water in a bucket with an air stone.. ad like 5ml of AG or tribus.. and some sugar.. you are not multiplying your bacteria.. i put a heat mat under my bucket cause basement is cold and bacteria loves heat to a point.. But.. i give my plants 10-20ml of that bucket soup every night.. just cause i can

Tribus and AG are the same thing... why pay 5 times the price? and AG works..

When i got my jacks i had just switched to flower on that grow and had no issues (it actually saved my grow since i was using FF grow big and tiger bloom which was a huge mistake)
If you switch just do like 2.75/1.8/1g/gal.. better to start low, that should get you around 650ppm depending on your starting water.

nice I’m at 620 ppm now but they have handled way more maybe I’ll still switch man just being my first indoor run I’m biting nails and etc I’m sure u know how it is I’m going to just use drill and paint stir to mix since everyone’s saying takes a lot to mix it

Not sure what you mean.. but 2.7jacks 1.8cal 1mag.. mix jacks then mag.. let it dissolve then toss the cal in and stir..
A paint mixer isn't needed and won't help.. the granules need time in the water to dissolve, you won't see a difference between walking over and stirring them once every few mins or sitting there stirring non stop... Doing it the way i explained earlier with hot water in a mason jar for the jacks+mag then into the bucket and add cal is the best way i have found.
Also.. don't be in a rush, put in the jacks/mag then go clean up shit or do whatever stuff you need to do.. stir it now and then and in like 3 mins you are good to go.
