I popped the seeds in dirt and switched them over to my BB. I use the one feeding schedule that only uses floramicro and florabloom (i forgot the name of it) but I dont use floragro. My question is what nute strength to use. Im only using 2ml per gallon and it seems to already show signs of nute burn. Should i empty the bucket and just run plain water for now?:leaf:

It's called the Lucas Formula which are designed to work with General Hydroponics Micro & Bloom.

Plenty of threads on here, so do a search before posting but to answer your questions:

I run 250 PPM for 2 weeks (tap water) and roots are in the water before I start bumping them up 100 PPM at a time. If you do not have a PH pen & PPM meter get one your lost without it.

Max Veg = 650 PPM Max Flower = 900 PPM I slowly up the dosage over weeks at a time increasing nutrient levels does not make your plant grow faster! It's a waste slow & steady is key here!

PH should be at or fluctuating around 5.8

You know ........ after reading o ton of threads....... I find myself asking questions before I should even ask them. Being a semi new grower ( I have three successful grows in dirt and dirt is WAY more forgiving) and new to the hydro world.....I am not even close to being the growers you guys are....but that being said Im starting to see that over nuting my babies is becoming a problem. I need to kick this idea that more is better when it comes to Nutes. Keep It Simple Stupid seems to be the best route. If i use the lucas formula in conjuction with something for taste lets just say Bud Candy I shouldnt run into many problems. Seems simple enough just running two parts through veg and flower.....Only a noob could fuck this up and I have achieved such a status as a noob. LOL
