So far it's looking like Aerobic is the winner because Anaerobic produce toxins that are not good for plants. I'm sure it's a lot more complex than that. Diversity seems to be the key.

I brewed a tea and it was going for four days, it smelled good for three days. I turned off my air pump for one day and it was starting to smell slightly of sulfur and rotting fruit. I just fed it to all my plants before it went completely bad. This is the first time I fed them 1tbs of Veganics.

Aerobic for the win homie!
 
Let us know how badass it is! I already know that powder rooting hormone destroys the gels or liquids.

I have a set to go into UC.
And a crop to chop this weekend, or I'm going to slide it over and assemble another UC in that space.
I just have to figure how I'm going to how to juggle the rooms.
Off a month due to throwing moms into an avail space and contraction setbacks.
Got to keep plants under those lights.
It is going to be crammed in there for a cpl of months.

So u just ask for the free samples? without buying?
 
Here's a good chart to help anyone with their House & Garden base nutes. I didn't invent it but I did modify it, it's always been accurate. Feeding charts are a joke from the nute companies , I have yet to see one that doesn't fry my plants.
This will keep you from frying them, while keeping them nourished.

House & Garden 1ml equals about 100ppm. Keep additives in mind when measuring ppm and subtract your starting ppm. H&G uses RO. Last I checked I used 5ml per gallon and with my additives and the ppm came out to 620ppm. Everyone's additives will measure a different ppm, that's why I added the ppm chart. If your additives raise the ppm higher, you need less base nutes and vise versa.

Clones, established seedlings 1-2ml per gallon
100-250 ppm Max

Early Vegging 2-3ml per gallon
300-400 ppm Max

Full Vegging 3-6ml per gallon
400-700 ppm Max

Early Flower 6-8ml per gallon
700-900ppm Max

Full Flower 8-12ml per gallon
900-1500ppm Max

If using Coco Coir, it doesn't like anything over 1500ppm.

Botanicare offers free samples. Shipping is $18. MOAB offers samples. Shipping is $12. House & Garden offers samples. Shipping is $20. H&G is a little different, they mail you a voucher and you fill it out and attach a money order. Botanicare and Mad Farmer just take Paypal.

Never knew that. House does owe me some 250ml bottles of roots and amino treatment they never sent out. I usually by that stuff by the lt btl anyway so I didn't give a damn.
I should call them about it anyway. I don't even want to think about how much I spent on them over the years.
I did pick up a kilo of MOAB, haven't used it in a cpl of years.
Gonna give that a whirl before I start mixing Cap's Moab recipe

Use this feed chart for H&G and your golden! The H&G feed chart does not work for me. The PPM part works for any brand of base nutes. The ml per gallon only works for H&G, unless another brand is 100ppm per ml. Remember to cut base nutes 50% when using bloom boosters like Shooting powder or MOAB.

Have you looked in to raw salts yet? You seem the kind of person who would really get in to being able to understand nutrient profiles and elemental ratios. All the products you use can be made at home fairly easily, regarding nutrient lines and additives.
 
Finished up those cuts and passed out.
Talc or whatever is used to suspend the Butyric Acid fell out of the water and settled to the bottom of the cloner.
Would you leave it be or drain some off?
PPM @ 442 out of the tap is 180
Cloner is 5.9 ph, 250 ppm
I'm going to dilute some of this powder and get a ppm/EC reading.
I did put 1ml of CS Flower A/B and 10 gal of water into the cloner, and used powder.
 
For me that is why I'm here, alchemist side of things.
I was always curious of the efficiency of doing that if your not running 1,500 gal plus sized rez.
Micro measurements and product batches either dry or wet that are going to be on your shelf forever.
Totally digging the customization, obvious with manufactured nutes the feed schedule is only a recommendation anyway.

I was talking about this with a friend. He's using bare salts. He's having trouble buffering it. He said PH rises and always stabilizes at around 6.3. He's in hydro. Any ideas?
 
A wealth of information.
No pun intended....
Some real gold in there.
Peace.
 
Worth the $12! It took 5 weeks, I thought they forgot me . Now

I have double MOAB!
 
If at tweaker found those packets of MOAB, they look like crystal meth without the label! It would be funny to see what it did to them :)
