Am I measuring this wrong? I put 378.5 grams on a scale and then put it into a gallon of ro water and 1.5tsp of dark brown sugar then heated it and there is a significant amount that did not dissolve. Or is it likely just contaminates in the potassium sulfate that did not dissolve?
Edit: nevermind, it does look like it's cause it's organic and it's just sediment from dirt type contaminates.

Dig the recipe.. but I have a question.

This 10% solution, is it a concentration solution that needs to be mixed with water or do we use as is??

I had posted this before. I made a mistake and THANKS TO MisterBlah getting me looking at where I went wrong and giving actual volumetric math vs. farm charts and misread labels!

I gave you a "sweet raw" formula that costs about a dollar a gallon and works GREAT!

NOW THIS!
Very simple actually

I figure that if you buy 5 lbs of K2SO4 (Potassium Sulfate) off Amazon -

https://www.amazon.com/Potassium-Sulfate-Potash-Organic-Pounds/dp/B00L225EXI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468941355&sr=8-1&keywords=potassium+sulfate

that will make you OVER 6 gallons of the formula (Adding the powder to the gallon of water will increase the total volume of the solution!). Then you spend what you would need to buy the amount of dark brown sugar to do the same.

The cost per gallon would be LESS then $4.00 a gallon to make it!
The others cost $68 a gallon and $158 for 5L!

Here I had my farm math. I used a formula to make a 300ppm application solution for 1000 gallons and forgot to multiply the answer by a factor of 28(grams) to back it to a 10% solution. What I posted was the application rate of 300ppm and NOT a 10% concentration! (Thanks again to MisterBlah!)

SO then 378.5 grams (volumetric math) of that Potassium sulfate powder from Amazon into 1 gallon of water for the 10% solution.
Add the 1.5 tsp of Dark brown Sugar for the carbs. Mix well till everything is dissolved and jug it! (With my old farm math method, and application charts I got 380 grams [correction]- a simple gain of 1.5 grams from formula shifts over the 1000 gallon conversion in the Greenhouse guide chart)



FEED CHART
(DO NOT mix with Silica - this causes a chemical reaction - precipitation)

STARTING Week 3&4 !
4-ml in 1 gallon of your feed

At week 5&6
6-ml in 1 gallon of your feed

At week 7 till harvest
8-ml in 1 gallon of your feed


I researched the "Rock Resinator" and the "Terpinator" formula's and they use an 8% solution and a 4 % solution respectively!

I formulated a 10% solution to be better effective faster. I used both products feed charts and normal feeding values of "K" to come up with the feed chart I gave you.
FOLLOW IT! NO increasing and you'll be safe and happy with the results!

This should make your lemon taste stronger or deeper, along with the smell!

This formula will increase the trich and terp production just like the Mg Sulfate formula BUT, will give everything a rather citrus smell and taste - more "lemony" for the most part.

Changes the taste and smell of any Berry or sour strain to more lemony/citrusy or fuel like..

Good luck and THANKS AGAIN to @MisterBlah

You say not to mix with silica. This is confusing because I use Rhino Skin and Terpinator and haven't noticed any adverse reactions. Are the ingredients your using exactly the same as Terpinator. If so, shouldn't it be safe to use with Rhino Skin?

Thanks for the tips mate the guy at the hydro shop told me about this thread when terpinator got discontinued. I use EZI oil flower gold now but im still going to make this and use it alongside as they both are quite different, do you know if K interacts with sulfur much? Ezi oil is actually amazing though can you replicate it aswell im pretty sure its in america now and made by the inventors of Atomic i think heres the link if its allowed https://agradehydroponics.com/products/ezi-oil-flower-gold-bloom-booster - much appreciated if you reply to this question - heres a pic of bud i grew using mills and ezi oil

IMO All of these bottled "terp" formulas are just a way for the nute companies to fleece us out of our hard earned cash by promising something they can't deliver. Genetics and good soil biology is all you need. Feed your soil, not the plant. Watch your plant for signs of problems with your soil. Its that simple!

The same goes for DIY attempts to duplicate those "formulas"

I've tried this concoction and I don't see where it did anything. However I'm an outdoor grower and my pot has good terpines to begin with. The op said it may or may not work. It's cheap to try and may be worth it on an indoor grow. I piddle around enough over my grow as it is.
