You would think in peat you would use less because of a lower cation exchange and especially if you're using tap... Why not check your ppms in and out??????
I believe dr lucas has states this ratio wasnt ever intended for anything other than veg under t5. Just a huge misconception if you ask me. Research youll find iit
I would love to switch to coc, but I cant source it here. Peat based products are readily available though.
Deadhead made the 6/9 specifically for coco.
Coco has a higher CEC, but with 6/9 your suppose to water at least once a day, with peat you don't need to water nearly as often and you can give plain water whenever needed to reduce salt build up.
I got some seedlings in coco/perlite and others in peat/coco/perlite and there watering schedule is significantly different. I'm giving them all the same nutrient ratio and there doing fine.
If i water'ed everyday they would never dry out. Is that not a concern when using coco or peat?
I would really like to use the 8/16 formula for flowering but after seeing the 6/9 I am hesitant. The ladies are going to the flower room in the next couple days. there they will have 1000 hps vert no shade and a 600 hps vert in a parabolic. the total space in flowring room is 6x10.
Thats the thing, the 6/9 was letting me down. The girls were slow growing and not happy looking. As soon as I switched to bottle directions for veg phase, boom within 2 days noticeable difference then 5 later WOW. I just never thought that I should be feeding them what was it, like 1600 PPM's in vegI think the 8/16 will work fine for flower if its working for your plants now.
