Are you saying with your Megacrop A and B you are using 3.6g A to 2.4g B as recommended by Jack's with better results?
i tried to make it work but it just wasnt working in my case. always ran into some sort of problem... and it was messy in my hydro setup on top of that.
I have been getting better results with the Jack's feeding schedule than I did with the MegaCrop schedule. I maintain the 3:2 ratio of Part A to Part B throughout the whole grow, I just adjust the amount of A and B depending on the growth stage (EC range 0.6-1.5). So far, haven't had to go above 3g A and 2g B. Also, i stopped adding epsom, my previous issues seem to have been an issue with poorly buffered coco.
Well thank you for your experience! My project right now is just frustrating. Not used to these dry nutes and my EC meter is MIA so it's been really tough trying to dial this new feed in temporarily. I'm flying blind boys. Do you know your typical USA EC reading if you add 3g A 2g B to 1 gallon of water? I know our water might differ, just trying to get an idea. Thanks again!
I wasn't happy with that run in the end, I ended up with calcium deficiencies. This last run I went 100 grams Part A with 60 grams part B as per a recommendation I read. It working out pretty well.
For a 1 gallon batch:
Just FYI, this will give you the elemental ppm levels which will be different from the readings you would get from an EC/TDS meter. I was using it when i first picked up my bag of megacrop and couldn't figure out why the output from the site didn't match my meter.
How did the GDP do with the 2-part?
I was happy with the results, it was a pretty easy grow. Worked my way up to an EC of about 1.5 (3g part A, 2g part B), and just held there for the remainder of the grow. I started to see some curling of the leaves and burning at the end of flower, but it had to go longer than expected to mature. I've been growing in a drain less container so it can be tricky to regulate when the plant stops drinking. Overall, i was happy with the final product, good flavor, good resin production, good smoke. Pic below is a sample of the GDP behind a Skunk #1 nug (for color comparison).
I ended up switching to the Jacks feeding schedule, but from my notes the early veg was only around an EC of 1.2 so i would assume you would need to switch before flipping to 12/12. I ran into Mg deficiencies using the recommended veg formula as about 63% of that feed ratio is Calcium Nitrate. If i were following the Megacrop feeding schedule i would probably go with the veg formula for a few weeks then switch to the veg/bloom until maybe 25-50% of the way through flower then finally switch to bloom but obviously you need to read the plant to understand the needs.
If he's looking for the 1-part the 2.5kg is in stock for what looks like a reasonable price. I see it for $27 before shipping and taxes, and Amazon has it for $37.
Research Endo and Ecto mycos. You will see that 99% of Great White is not even for weed. It's junk. I suggest Dynomyco and King Crab. (King Crab is made by the same folks who make Great White)
Duh, Hydro. lol. My bad.
I looked into king crab looks promising. Ive only had success with GW and orca honestly and both are affordable. Im going to run sterile with uc roots next run... if I dont like the results ill try king crab. all these other bennies i tried suck balls dont shield you from root rot or are way too expensive to even try... it just doesnt make sense financially.
