Hey everyone,
I'm on my second grow and got started by growing basil and other herbs using the kratky method. Masterblend is popular for kratky due to it's low cost and how good the stuff works. I love how I don't have to use cal-mag, and I can have two mixes that covers a cannabis plant from seed to harvest and have beautiful plants and great yields.
My first grow I was just using a Mars 27"x27" TS1000 kit and got 8 1/2 ounces of Barney's Farm Triple Cheese. For that grow I was figuring things out and ran 2g masterblend/1g epsom/2g calnit per gallon and then added flower fuel in flower (loosely following an old guide I found on the forum here).
For my second grow (I added a 3'x3' for perpetual autos) I wanted to try only Masterblend. My first auto flower (LSD Auto) was showing signs of deficiency in early flower but I upped her to full strength Masterblend and she recovered nicely. For the plants that followed I started doing the first gallon using the light mix and then after that bumping up to full strength and I couldn't ask for happier plants. The LSD Auto got chopped over the weekend and is hanging up behind me drying right now.
That's two cannabis plants from seed to harvest, two more large flowering cannabis plants, many kratky jars maintained for months before I started growing cannabis, and house plants.... I've used maybe $10 of fertilizer.
