hey im new, dang how many times has a post started like that? anyways i wonderd when i should start nutes? i have an experiment plant right, i am using an organic vegg and bloom from humbolt nutrients, i measured out the 5 ml/1gal ratio then poured that into a 2-liter, i waterd the exp plant with the nute solution, then a friend brought me some root enzyme, i mixed it up, 5 ml/1gal repeated the process above. can i mix the 2 solutions? or just use one then the other. the soil is decent, pro-mix. i have pics of all of this in my journal if that helps. how often do i add the nutes? like say veg monday, h2o tues, root wend, repeat? O the stuff was sensizyne, do i just act like it is the microzyne? and do i run straight nute mix?

you can mix nutes but not until you add water first. mixing straight nutes without water can cause chemical reactions. always add water first when mixing nutes.

i feed mine every other watering, or so. you will have to watch your plants to know for sure exactly how much to give them. every other watering is usually the norm. your leaf tips will tell you A LOT if you know how to read them. ;)

i'm not familiar with sensizyne.

Hey, think dats too much, i only use nutes once a week and water once between nutes, if i used nutes on monday id water wednesday or thursday but im using a 90watt led so theres not much heat, so my soil doesn't dry up too quick, If you wer using a 1000watt hps you'd prob have to water more regular but id still be careful with the nutes once a week is plenty, have you any pics of your grow? What light are you using?

i have a few ghetto pics. my pc wont take an sd card, dinosaur that it is. im using a 400 mh fer vegg. have a tent setup. these are only pics i have right now. my messy ass system can be seen the day i got it when was still lotso clutter in my journal. havent figured how to show it to people yet. noob n all. the plant im usin the nutes on is ALOT older than my seedlings. was just in front of a window started to flower, but i placed it in the tent and re-vegging it. ive been adding a diluted mix of 2.5 ml grow juice per gal settled water.nuting the exp every other day water mon, nutes tues water wed nutes thurs. ive seen alot of healthy new growth at the nodes, but she just stopped growing any. should i stop thhe nutes for a bit and c if she recovers? i tried puttin pics in order. how it was in front of window. i think i lst'd it ( if i didi it right that is) was looking yellow. added nutes + roots and she "blossomed". my temps run @ 86f when lights are on. i know this is too warm. but will it affect the plant absorbing the nutes at that temp? lotsa questions. lol

thanks. so if i take say mygrow at 5/1 ratio and my roots at their 5-1 ratio, i can mix both solutions in a seperate jug and water from that? instead of watering from 3 different bottles?

Im not an epert but i think your plant is over watered the leaves should be pionting upwards towards your light they look to be drooping a bit, how far away is your light it looks stretched aswel man, maybe lower the light and only water when the soil is dry. And mixing the nutes im not too sure about maybe someone else can help you out with that one. They look a nice colour green tho so the nutes dont seem to be doin any damage,
