Fox Farm Nutrient Users

I'm looking for users of Fox Farms products. I have had a few questions about feeding schedules, and plant diagnosis while using there products.

I have there full line of products, all 6 and use them in a hydro setup.

Who else uses Fox Farm?

I stopped because it always dropped my pH into the high 4's and low 5's and because it's organic and additives like H2o2, Epson Salts, etc will kill the microbes. It was a struggle the entire grow to keep the p[H inline. Now I use General Hydroponics and I haven't had that problem.

I use them for soil it works great.
I have a DWC setup I made and i'm going to break it in next week and i'm going to be using FF line up let's see how that goes.

People seem to either love them or hate them. I have only used Fox Farm, but still have not yet mastered the nutrients. I have also noticed you will get a massive Ph drop once you get past the first two weeks of the feeding schedule, it is a must to have Ph up on hand, the big bottle. I have also heard that some people will use Cal/Mag, but I don't recall at what ratio they where using.

Anyone out there use Fox Farm in Hydro?? I would love to have some conversation...

I use it in Hydro and love the stuff. The only down side is that its dark and really stains my lines and air stones. Nothing big just a clean freak when it comes to my equiptment.

Do you use the full line of nutrients?

What do you use for test equipment?

I'm on my third grow, and still trying to get them figured out.

Are you saying that you don't use an EC or PPM meter?

I guess I'm just wondering how you do your nutrients. Do you follow the feeding schedule?

I just did a res change, and I followed the feeding schedule for week 2, and came up with an EC of 1.3, schedule says range of 1.6-1.8.

Anyone out there use Fox Farm and use a EC meter? I want to know what you run your EC at in Hydro.

I use to use it in soil. The feeding schedule for soil is light. I more than doubled it and never got burned.
