Heavy 16 User Superthread

[mr roboto]

is it me or does it see like the base buffers itself to around 6.2 the next day when mixed in a reservoir?

I've been really staying on my feed doing a feed every water sometimes every other and some plants have been perfect, others I think may need a calmag boost.. I'll try it out. I'm liking this stuff though, great growth

 

[jessejames12345]

Turns out I had nute build up in my coco. This stuff is pretty salt heavy looks like , if your not big on watering too 10% run off at least make sure they get straight water every 2 .
The plants were definitely digging the feed , my bad for not keeping it in check ...flushed with ro/dimitries density and got thinks in range. A few burnt fans : \ but everything looks pretty flashy

 

[bongobongo]

Ya, I could be just locking the ones out I feed every water as well. In fact lookin at a heavy GSC cross I think it's a lil hot. I run the 700 ppm range ... A lil less. Just gonna have to make sure I give those gsc's a lil less or they be spittin crumbs

It's easy to believe the H16 line is salt heavy. That's why he has the *finish (fulvic acid) in the regiment the whole time imo.
I was also told by Bryce (I was in a group) not to pH the water at all. Even if I run it in rockwool. I'm new to the line but not afraid to not pH it, it's worked fine in my bloom area not being Phd , and veg area seems OK, but too early to tell. I also amend my soil with dolomite lime so I'm confident in its ability to adjust itself. This will be my first full run with it. Anyones thoughts?

The ph seems to sit in the 5.6-6.0 range pretty constantly. I use NOTG ph up a little just cause its a good Ca source fwiw. No means an expert though ( yet ;)

You never need to pH if you mix it and let it set for 24 hours before using. The initial pH is around 4 and it takes me about 2.5 ml/gallon pH up to raise it for immediate use, which is an insane amount. Then within 48 hours ill have to add 1 ml/gallon pH down. If I mix it a day in advance, it rises t0 around 5.8 on its own and never gets above 6.3 before its empty.

It seems to me like my heavy res's are always on point upon mixing them. About 5.8 to 6.3, but almost always when I come back the next day the veg res will drop to 5.0 and the flower res will raise a wee bit but not much. Since I've learned this, I usually always try to make a batch for the day(rather than however many days, I'm in sunshine with smart pots btw). But this can be a little bit time consuming every day. To me 5.0 is a lil low so I hit it with just enough to get it to at least 5.8 and I have never had a prob. What he calls for in the flower recipe I don't ever fuck with tho. I got a mixing pump running 247 too

Anybody in this thread using soil?

Yes.
This round is H16 with GreatWhite and a couple doses of Rock Resinator and molasses in soil.

Where do you like to keep your ph?

 

[oscar169]

Yup Pro-Mix PH 6.3

I never measure it. I ammend my soil beforehand to cope with Ph issues and I water to 10-20% runoff to avoid salt build up.

I used to run H16 with vermifire and pro-mix or sunshine mix, or any other peat based bail. Always put it in at 6.2. Two feeds, first full strength, second half strength made with compost tea, and the third was compost tea. I have a Vortex brewer from progress earth. Compost tea feed was never pH adjusted. Never checked soil pH, don't water to run off. Plants in 3 gal fabric pots got max 2/5 gal of liquid on watering days. Have never had a problem with H16. Great results. Went veganic instead. But great product, doesn't need much tweaking.

H16 is a stand up company,,,although I haven't been using it long,, and only using prime and fire,, I can see a big difference ..not only that but I contacted them on their website and to my surprise they sent me a t shirt,,hat,,and a really nice hoodie sweatshirt with their logo on them,,,super cool :-) ..

Sounds a lot like what I'm doing now...5g smart pot and Roots organic 707.I have been keeping the ph @6.2-6.3 but i'm going to try and push the ml's up on this crop and see how they respond to some more food.Im hoping to keep the ph in a sweet spot so she will be able to use everything thats available.

HA og flushing,,,using prime,,gotta love h16..
