not exactly what I buy you get the idea.
Thank you that helps me understand some of the shit I use. And some more to play around with. I'm kinda excited to start playing with my flower mixes now.Ok last post on this, just trying to get clear up things i have stated so you can make up your own minds.
Calcium sulfate at 20C in water has a saturation point of approx. 240ppm which is high enough for our needs.
Calcium Nitrate at 20C in water has a saturation of 1,290,000ppm
This is why most liquid nutes will not use much if any Calcium sulfate or other low solubility nutrients like Mg sulfate. Because they just cannot concentrate it enough.
This is why liquid Ca/Mg products all contain a nitrate values. Those forms are very easily concentrated.
A well balanced fert uses multiple different sources of each nutrient to provide the most balanced product. This is why I have always used dry ferts for my aquatic adventures and will continue to use the same for my MJ adventures.
Sorry for hijacking @heisenbubble I just wanted to make sure the info I gave was clear and everytime i looked back I seen shit i missed explaining.

Gypsum has calcium sulphate in the dihydrate form (two water molecules with each calcium sulphate) making it somewhat more soluble than the anhydrous form of calcium sulphate. A small amount of gypsum can dissolve at once in the soil solution (limit is 0.24 g per 100 mL of water at 20oC). Once the soil solution reaches the limit of calcium sulphate in solution, gypsum starts to precipitate again. Thus there is a fast provision of calcium and sulphate into soil solution for plant uptake or effect on the soil but the overall rate of release from gypsum is controlled by the rate with which the calcium and sulphate are taken or move from the soil solution.
Exactly I was speaking in terms of hydroponic solution where you want to avoid precipitates. Not sure if you intended to point this out but my calculations were wrong. i calculated at the solubility of 100ml but forgot to convert to mg/L. so
Calcium sufate = 2400ppm and calcium nitrate = 12,900,000 this also affected by temp, PH, and other dissolved nutes. Calium sulfate is less soluble as PH goes down
Just adding info. I'll keep it to myself from now on...lol...wasn't saying you were wrong. Just a bit of random info. Gypsum in hydro should only be used if no other Ca or S containing nute or suppl is being used. Is that correct? I would really like to try hydro in the future...aeroponics sounds very interesting
Same can be sed for every cannabis specific product on the marketSnake oil. I buy mine in the powder form.

just wanted to put this here to clear things up.No offence taken really, just trying to figure out why you like my shots of GG#4 on the thread GG#4 but the same shots of the same plants on this post and it's not GG.
Mean well HLG 240H-C1400B is the driver im using per 5 Vero29 90 CRI D (3000k) cobs,using 15 cobs over each 4x5 area,This thread is incredible!
I've read this thread twice now just to make sure you didn't already answer this question lol but what power supply do you use for each row of cobs?
Thanks again for this awesome experiment!
Sure, my original cuttings I received looked like yours. Twisty leaves and cupped serrations.just wanted to put this here to clear things up.
GG4 has a look that stands out a mile away
I wasnt trying to single you out,just wanted to point this out,the pics you posted look nothing like it to me.
I got these in veg and you can see the look they have in veg is unmistakable.Two different plants but the same cut
