    berger bm6

    I've never run BM6. I tried to source it about a year back but unfortunately Berger has no distribution where I live. I've run Jack's in both Sunshine #4 and Promix for many runs and it works great. I can all but guarantee Berger will work at least as well. Nothing wrong with Sunshine, I've...

    berger bm6

    Feel lucky, Berger BM6 is the best, cheapest, most consistent peat mix you'll find out there. Better than sunshine or ProMix easy. Here's a little something from Spurr about them:

    If you have chemistry questions....

    Hey squiggly I have a question on Potassium and sodium silicate r.e. pH and stability/solubility. Ive been a bit confused with the chemistry because it seems to me that to keep Si soluble and non reacctive in concentrated stock solutions, pH needs to be kept high (>8). But to keep Si soluble...

    Jack's nutrients question

    What EC is your water before adding any salts? Id try a pour-thru to see how your medium pH and EC is and adjust from there. http://www.ces.ncsu.edu/depts/hort/floriculture/Florex/PourThru Handout 123s.pdf If I had to guess, Mg toxicity, but cant say. Id stop adding the epsom salt and cut...

    Jack's nutrients question

    The first quote is talking about how i cannot suggest a universal dosage (e.g. 3 grams Jacks pro & 2 grams calcinit per gallon) per gallon for all growers to follow since the level of total nutrient requirements of any particular crop will change drastically based on a variety of conditions...

    Jack's nutrients question

    If the red petioles are accompanied by increased chlorosis of the bottom foliage than it could be a deficiency any of the major macronutrients aside from Ca and S. If the red petioles are not accompanied by lower foliage chlorosis than it probably a minor temperature issue, could be a sudden...

    Jack's nutrients question

    Compatible yes, benefit no. Only reason I see to do it is if trying to limit NO3 levels while maintaining high Ca levels, which would be to satisfy some pseudo-scientific notion about Brix, or plant defenses, or senescence, etc. No real legitimate reason not to get all Ca levels from CalciNit if...

    Jack's nutrients question

    Amazon, Ebay and Customhydronutes.com. Whichevers got the best price. CHN is gonna be the best choice for the Potassium Silicate There's more Mg than P in Jacks, and Jacks Professional has extra Epsom compared to Peters Hydrosol which otherwise is the same product. Jacks does not need...

    Moab?

    Per gallon: 0.4g Monobasic Potassium Phosphate 0.77g Potassium Nitrate 0.05g Potassium Sulfate makes 28ppm N 24ppm P 115ppm K and ~2.5ppm S Id imagine the N and K ppm for Hammerhead aren't 100% accurate, as this would explain the ~2ppm discrepancy that required me to use potassium sulfate...

    Moab?

    Just for anyone who's planning on making a concentrated liquid product with this formula, the potassium sulfate and the calcium nitrate cannot be mixed together in concentrated amounts, it will precipitate out insoluble calcium sulfate. FWIW The old labels of hammerhead did have potassium...

    Jack's nutrients question

    Glad to see you're liking the formula. Do you see any differences compared to running the 3-2-1 formula? I'd imagine yield would increase a bit since you increase CalcNit application by ~25%, but maybe not. Also feel free to be overly critical in any constructive criticism you might have about...

    Aptus nutrients

    TY for the quick reply. For HPS do you use Ushio as well? If not, what brand do you use? Do you prefer any company when it comes to electronic ballasts? Ive seen one of your rooms using exclusively Quantum ballasts but I do not recognize the ballasts in the MH room.

    Got a few Q's about your lighting setup. It looks like you switched out the Blockbuster reflectors for Adjust-A-Wings and you're using exclusively MH bulbs. Any reasons why and can you tell me what brand of MH bulb?

    (Fatman's) DIY nutrient mixing guide

    Sorry about the last post. Thanks for the clarification. Well there's at least one study that shows inverse relationships with THC and Mn, so I doubt it has much relevance, if correct, which I believe it is IIRC.

    (Fatman's) DIY nutrient mixing guide

    Isoprene biosysynthesis, the Melavonate and Non-melavonate pathways and the Octadecanoid pathways are the only metabolic pathways I've studied in significant detail and again, I've NEVER seen mention of molybdenum in this. Please, all it takes is one decent citation to back your claims...

    (Fatman's) DIY nutrient mixing guide

    If it's such common knowledge than Im sure you'll be able to produce a legitimate citation for your claims. I've read several 'biochemistry' reviews r.e. the uses of molybdenum in plants and have never heard of such a mention so I'm seriously doubting its as common knowledge as you're making it...

    I've missed the mentioning of this article, can you tell me what article you're speaking of ( i.e. link or article title)? thanks

    (Fatman's) DIY nutrient mixing guide

    I've seen Squiggly claim this as well. Do you have any evidence (e.g. peer-reviewed reference) to support this? I know Mo is used in the artificial synthesis of THC to gain steriocontrol over chirality. Other than that I can find no evidence of Mo being utilized in synthesis of THC in cannabis...

    Over 90% males from seed? Help needed from indoor growers

    @Seamaiden from the above possible things that effect sexual expression, the effects of nitrogen are the only that I've seen mentioned in academic literature that really effects sexual expression of Cannabis sativa L. I know for sure the statements about potassium are not true. I can't say much...

    If you have chemistry questions....

    I think i was incorrect by saying those were only for hydro. I just think you test to get the best usage of them in hydro.
