what is "correct amount of P", you keep going back to this abstract number, when every plant is different, every grow is differentso if you have the correct amount of P (43ppm), why would you add more K to the mix??? care to elaborate?? and don't forget to tell us what excess K does to other nutrients too.
holy f*ck, that's exactly what i'm saying.you never need PK, if you have a balanced nutrient load.
if you don't have a deficiency or a toxicity, then you have enough P. pretty simple, huh?what is "correct amount o fP"
what cal mag thing.... lol
holy f*ck, that's exactly what i'm saying.
is English your first language? if' it's like your 4th or so, i'll be gentler on you. or are you just slow?
That’s not what he’s said. Sorry.so funny seeing the pied pipper effects of populism
no you said it causes deficienes and argue against using it becuase you couldnt use it without issues
PK boosters are fine
Kelp products are fine
rooting gel is fine, you dont need them
you want them
it doesnt unless you use it incorrectlymy nutes have plenty of PK already. adding more PK does nothing. except lead to nutrient imbalances.
what is excessiveso if you have the correct amount of P (43ppm), why would you add more K to the mix??? care to elaborate?? and don't forget to tell us what excess K does to other nutrients too.
he said imblanceThat’s not what he’s said. Sorry.
He said too much P or K can antagonise other nutrients.
my advice to anyone setting out growing for the first time is choose a basic nutrient that has everything the plant needs and become familiar with environmental control and manipulation.
Many new growers often look for a new bottle of something when in reality it could be an environmental issue causing problems.
Learn your nutrients
master your environmental variables.
THEN when you feel you’ve exhausted the resources available to you then look to add 1 additional product and see if it makes a difference.
what nutes do you use to grow beauty like that?Easy. He’s probably using a basic veg formula and feeding them the right amount.
Case and point.

Would you say its time for me to use PK? Or should I wait a few more days / week?he said imblance
and it doesnt, if you use it correctly
thats what im saying, just like any nutrient its effectiveness is all in how its used and could potentially cuase imbalances its a nothing burger
to much of anything use incorrectly will be bad
he is saying not to use it at all because it causes imbalances
it doesn't, thats not sound advice to anyone trying to use these products
and i fundamentally find fault with add 1 product and see how it works
you should know what to expect when ever using any product or dont use it
none of these things are new are special this is second oldest kind of business since the skin game we are not inventing things
what week are you in, what are the geneticsWould you say its time for me to use PK? Or should I wait a few more days / week?
Whats your regime xtsho?I just feed my plants what they need to stay nice and healthy which isn't much. Plants create their own hormones even cannabis. No reason to be adding more. Some like to add this that and another thing trying to squeeze out an extra drop. In the end it's just money spent for little gain.
Use whatever you want on your plants. I'll KISS and end up with basically the same results without adding a bunch of stuff into the mix.
Perfect!we dont chase problems we grow through them,
Which one? I've been mostly doing organic using KNF and JADAM methods lately but those are too much trouble for a small indoor grow and are best left for a larger outdoor organic grow or for a vegetable garden. Prior to that I was growing in coco using just some basic nutrients with great results. My current indoor grow is in soil but my next is going to be back to coco and salt based nutrients. It's just easier and I don't feel like messing with stinky homemade organic fertilizer for my indoor plants.Whats your regime xtsho?
the grower at a farm i consult for uses vita. good stuff. def KISSWhich one?

Coco and just a basic nutrient that supplies what the plant needs is all that really needs to be done. Nutrients are not the first and foremost thing to be focused on. Used properly they'll all work. Focusing on environment and adequate lighting is more important than brand of nutrient or using additives. Environmental conditions are much more important than anything that comes in a bottle.
This is what I've used for years. Just a blend of cheap salts that provide everything the plant needs.
Nothing fancy and the Micro is similar to Jacks. Put out by what was the oldest hydro shop in Portland until they recently moved to Oregon City next to Flying Skull which makes Nuke Em and have a line of salt based nutrients that are descendents. VitaGrow has been used for decades by cannabis growers in the Portland area both small and large scale. It's all you need for a non-organic grow.
