Hey there... What is Mills?
Mills is a nutrient line made in Holland I believe. Millsnutrients.comHey there... What is Mills?
Quite honestly @Iamhorse I am new to Coco and using the Tea. But As for applying them, I am applying tea on the weekend (once) and mills in between. Tea recipe is on OGBIOWAR website. It consists of 2 ounces of mollasses, 2 ounces of foliar pack, 2 ounces of root pack, and a cup and a half of humus or EWC per 4 gallons. The website suggests aerating for 2-8 hours. Let sit for 30 minutes because there will be a bunch of sediment that will settle. I aerate 4 gallons in a 5 gal and when I pull my airstone I will add in the extra gallon of RO. Then pour a cups worth (8oz) at the crown of each plant for direct root contact. (5gallons X 128ounces/gallon = 640 ounces/5gallon, 640 / 72plants = 8.888 ounces per plant). 8oz will last for 72 plants and is all that is really needed. Some people saturate their soil. This will use much more product. I am doing this every other week. On the in between week I am giving them a tea that consists of molasses, humus, and great white (to save a little money). Now as for mills, I have not gone past 6ml per gallon AB and 4ml per gallon R in veg. It comes out around ~1.2 EC. For first week after I transplant from rooted clone, I will only use 3ml AB 2ml R. I like to throw in some Roots Excelulator and Sea Green with my mills. But... Don't mix those products in if youre going to have your reservoir sit for a couple days. If you do, you will have to adjust your pH because from my own expierience, when I add additives to mills, the pH likes to swing from 5.8 to 6.5 the next day and then 7.5 the next. Don't let your Mills constantly aerate too. I put my airstone on a timer. Turns on for 15 minutes like 5 times a day, just to keep shit from settling. If you run your airstone too long, it will swing your pH, I think because it evaporates water molecules and leaves behind nutrients (Correct me if I'm wrong). Besides that, I like to flush my plants with 200-300ppm 20-40% runoff once every other week.
