A handful per 3 gal. , I have small hands :mrgreen:
I just got this the other day. I'm gonna start with 1/16 or 1/8 tsp per gal. I'll report my results.

Your hot water added ppms, could be from Ca buildup in your hot water heater.
Funny, I was teaching my son how to flush coco last night because he needed to transplants some venus fly traps. He was spraying them with the shower wand, and didn't realize he was using hot water. I checked the PPMs and it was about 100 PPM higher than normal. I figured the temperature was responsible, so I switched it to cold water and the PPM dropped back down. I should have checked the same hot water after it cooled to see what percentage was from boosting the conductivity with the heat vs whatever else that may push up PPM.

Minerals and shit can build up in the hot water tank.

So jealous of you all with nice wells, 150ppm? If I poured a glass of mine you ask me to pass the iced tea.

My BOO keeper gets that crinkle leaf with ph being off and I actually watch for it. It’s the only plant I’ve noticed it in running side by side with others too. I like the tell. I don’t even have a ph pen so it’s golden.

Your latest pics look N hungry to me. I think that’s better than too much. I’ve realized for me running nectar line though I’m basically broken when it comes to talking about nutes though heh.

Thanks. Just gave them some N last night. 1/2 TBLS Organics Alive Grow, and 1/4 TBLS Bloom in 4 gallons of water.

Do you spray with epsom? No till right? Maybe time for a re boost?
No. I never spray anything. And ya it's 3 year old no-till. I've been really lazy with top dressing. I didn't top dress at all the whole month of December at least. So I was messing with this new water soluble shit I got from BAS. I gotta get back on top of top dressing for sure, but I'm trying to see if I can make this stuff work for the rest of this round.

I do have Epsom salt that I've watered with occasionally but haven't used any in awhile.

Mr Kratos got me on spraying epsom on the buds and leaves, they sure like it.

I love reading his posts. I've always tried to avoid spraying the buds but if he's doing it, it can't be wrong.:lol: How long into flower do you spray them?

So he also suggests a few drops Si,like 3 no more to 500ml,epsom @ 60-80 ppm IIRC.I spray every week until pistols start receding.
