Need some opinions on my nutrient schedule

Hi guys I’m looking for people’s opinions my nutrient schedule on my schedule I am not that new to growing I have 5 grows under my belt but I’ve been getting into additives some more now and I see a difference, like should I give it different additives one week and different additives the next and if you are telling me this try to explain what to do for example if I should do one thing one week and one thing the next Now lets get into it


I Grow In coco I get 15-20% runoff each watering

For house and garden, I use the nutrient calculator so when I say full Strength Its according to the nutrient calculator and it gradually goes up each week, I veg for 4-6 week and flower for 8-9

I run r/0 water Ppm between I always keep ph. at 5.8-6.3 usually no higher than 6.1

For Veg my ppms are 600-800 at beginning and towards the end 900- 1000

For flower my ppms are 1000-1500 usually higher towards the end


During veg I feed

Cocos A&B- full strength

amino acid- amino treatment by house and garden at full strength


enzyme- multi zen by house and garden at full at full strength


beneficial bacteria - mammoth p at full strength


root enhancer- root accelerator by house and garden full strength


fish based- Bio marine by General Hydroponics at half strength


Humic acid- Soluble humic acid by RAW half strength

Bat guano- Budswell super bat by Guano company half strength


Kelp meal- velo kelp by remos nutrients half strength

Cal mag by botincare half strength

Silica- FaSilitor- by aptus full stregth



For Flower

Beginning of flower

Cocos A & B- at full strength


amino acid- amino treatment by house and garden full strength


enzyme- multi zen by house and garden at full strength


beneficial bacteria - mammoth p at full strength


root enhancer- root accelerator by house and garden at full strength


fish based- Bio marine by General Hydroponics at ½ ¾ strength


Humic acid- Soluble humic acid by RAW at half strength

Bat guano- Budswell super bat by Guano company at ½ to ¾

Bloom booster/ Pk booster- M.O.A.B at ½ strength

Kelp meal- velo kelp by remos nutrients at ½ strength

Cal mag by botincare at ¾ to full strength

Silica- FaSilitor- by aptus at full strength


Mid Flower

Cocos A & B- at full strength



beneficial bacteria - mammoth p at full strength


root enhancer- root accelerator by house and garden at full strength


fish based- Bio marine by General Hydroponics at ½ ¾ strength


Humic acid- Soluble humic acid by RAW at ½ to ¾

Bat guano- Budswell super bat by Guano company at ½ to ¾

Bloom booster/ Pk booster- M.O.A.B at ½ ¾

Kelp meal- velo kelp by remos nutrients at ½ strength

Cal mag by botincare at ¾ to full strength

Silica- FaSilitor- by aptus at full strength


End of flower


Cocos A & B- at full strength



beneficial bacteria - mammoth p at full strength



fish based- Bio marine by General Hydroponics at ½ ¾ strength


Humic acid- Soluble humic acid by RAW at ½ to ¾

Bat guano- Budswell super bat by Guano company at ½ to ¾

Bloom booster/ Pk booster- M.O.A.B at ¾ to full strength

Kelp meal- velo kelp by remos nutrients at ½ strength

Cal mag by botincare at 1/4 to ½ because I am using molasses

Silica- FaSilitor- by aptus at full strength

Terpinator- at ½ at beginning and ¾ to full stregth towards the end


Molasses – 1/2 – ¾ strength

And I get grief for the very few things I use feeding soilless my AN hydro nutes.

You're basically doing the same thing I am but using a lot more stuff.

I'm not an organic grower so can't advise much about what you are doing but I'd cut back on the silica. I use about 1/4 dose of Rhino Skin once a month and that's plenty. Stuff is very alkaline and too much will thicken up the "skin" on the calyxes and make your buds too tough.

I use ProMix HP right out of the bag and it's peat based where coco didn't work well for me when I tried it years ago. ProMix makes coco based media too and if it was available anywhere near me I'd give it a try once I run out of the 2.5 - 107L bales of HP I have on hand and that will take a while as I'm shifting back to DWC for the bulk of my growing.

Hopefully some experienced organic coco grower will drop in and give you some solid info about your feedings but that's all I got.

Good luck. Good growing. And a very Merry Xmas to you and yours!

Seems like you are using a lot of nutrients, you might not need to use that many and you might get the same results, maybe try 1 plant just using the base nutrients without the additives an see how it works out, might end up saving yourself a lot of money.

Yeah I'm looking to see if I should you that many or no , or something like one week use kelp and the bat guano, and then the next week use or one week use humic acid and amino I'm looking for something like that

Too many choices! Great if you're a horticultural scientist but I'm just a lowly chemist.

I just use 3-part AN base nutes, Big Bud, and Rhino Skin. Any old calmag and some epsom salts.

I may be wrong but doesnt the h n g amino acid have silica in it. The fish product probably has amino acids in it more than likely. I would cut out the kelp during week three of flower. I wouldnt use any fish kelp or bat shit in late flower unless you like the taste of fish kelp and batshit. Didnt know that molasses has a half strength would recommend it at 5ml per gallon mixed well with a little microbes added weeks 3-7 or 8 if its a longer flowering plant.

Wouldnt that fish product be high in nitrogen and shouldnt you be cutting out as much nitrogen as possible about week 3 flower or even before.

No mention of light but my rule I use is to not go very much over the watts of my light. Lets say a 1000 watt light I wouldnt want to feed more than 1300 ppms. Just something to think about.

Also it can get tricky making sure they all play well together .

Humiplus

I have used entire canna line, AN when I was a noob (and this last round as comparison), GH (useless formula and lucas), dynagro (which is horrible-all 3 formulas), botanicare CNS-17, GH maxigro and maxibloom dry salts, and now Hydroponic research Veg and Bloom dry salts.

This last run with hydroponic research is by far the best run ever. Although I do use Maxigro and maxibloom for veg and 2 flowering feeding respectively.
So my formula is this:

Veg-maxigro

First 2 feedings of bloom-maxibloom

Rest of bloom- hydroponic research Veg+bloom all in one.

That's it-NEVER give my plants no more than one cheap powder that is only a few dollars a pound. Save your money-salts are salts as long as they are in right ratios. Hydroponic research also already has humics and silica in it.
This isn't a "Jack's classic" or dynagro with wacky ratios- hydroponic research is highest in k- moderate in N- and provides enough P- perfect for flowering cannabis- my couple feedings of maxibloom provide a little boost in P if needed.

Even did a side my side with AN with all additives to prove a point to a friend when I started using this stuff-
Guess which one won hands down...

Full discloser I do use a cheap microbe powder in veg and a little cal mag from time to time-as I am in RO...and my medium is Peat

Also have had good results with maxibloom Maxigro 50/50 switching to 75/25 after week 5

Still deciding on the right nutes for my babies starting to get to late need help for
