I’m in.

Go for it. Knowledge is power!

I concur. Wrapping up my second grow. Had to give most of the first grow away. My problem is, I enjoy cultivating this soilless media / nutrients so much that I’m more hooked on growing than consuming.

Could be nitrogen toxicity with EC readings that high.

Sounds like they’re still going at it from different angles, as they should.

Strongly considering purchasing the "Optimizing The Root Zone" class. Curious to see if the university is doing anything different with their research since he released his popular video.

America terrorizes itself. It’s become what it hates. Hoping we can all get it together, soon.

Understood. You can always dial in your PH & EC by following his parameters. It's slightly intimidating and perhaps counterintuitive but you're gaining knowledge from a scientist. As with anything, the more you do it, the more you know what works best for you.

I personally didn't. Although I've read that is a good thing to do.

He's a wealth of scientific knowledge. I followed his recipe the best I could in my first grow with good results (2 plants - 7 oz). He's now offering a paid online course in cannabis cultivation. I'm tempted to enrol.

No matter what anyone says, the choice is yours.

Yes. I did use 20-10-20 throughout. Although after the first feed, the top set of leaf tips turned slightly yellow. I suspect there was a slight shock when the nuits were first introduced Others in this thread experienced the same thing and advised slowly ramping up the fertilizer component over...

First time grower here. Very pleased with the results. I didn't find pelletised gypsum either. Not saying it's negligible, but I added the powdered form. It's the smallest amendment, probably won't make or break your grow but add what he recommends, quantity-wise, regardless. Worked for me.

Interesting. Which strain(s) were you growing? Were you able to use 20-10-20? My grow was successful without too may curveballs thrown but I was growing Blue Mystic which is apparently a good hardy plant for a first time grower.

Thanks OldMed for the tip. I'll keep them inside. They're going stay indoor kids.
