So simple yet so effective and complete. Great post man... for those looking I'd be taking some notes from this manI love fertilizer. I work with big grows down to friends that have a single 400w light. I recommend the same thing to each and every one of them. It is used start to finish, so there's no following confusing feed schedules. A buddy of mine started calling this "The Recipe" because it is cheap, simple and gives some amazing quality flower.
It consists of:
1) Silica- I always recommend soluble silica like PowerSi or Grow Genius. If you are in a pinch, you can use potassium silicate, but you have to keep an eye on the pH.
2) Jacks Classic Hydro, Calcium Nitrate and epsom salt- This is your base fertilizer. It is 3 grams Jack's, 2 grams calcium nitrate, 1 gram epsom salt per gallon
3) Fulvic Acid- This helps prevent pH problems and plant stress and gives organic taste and smell. There's lots of watered down additives out there, but I recommend Mr. Fulvic because it is a concentrate and has fulvic, amino and organic acids.
The quality and yields are phenomenal. Depending on what quantities you buy, it can be $0.06-$0.10/gallon.

I’m going to try this recipe. Was wondering what medium you are using. Would this recipe apply to soil already charged?I’ve finally been able to get the hang of it lol. I’m loving this stuff!!!
Not to threadjack, Just a note if I may add, as this is the measurements that I’ve been using so far this run with success:
1/2 TSP Jacks 5-12-26
1/4 TSP epsom salt
1/2 TSP calcium nitrate
I’m going to start adding silica every so often for strength and I’ve also been adding Recharge 1 in 5-7 days.
It will work in any media. You don't want to start feed in a precharged media until it needs it.I’m going to try this recipe. Was wondering what medium you are using. Would this recipe apply to soil already charged?
Would you consider Happy Frog by FoxFarms is charged? I figured it was because I don’t need to feed for 3 weeks following any transplant.It will work in any media. You don't want to start feed in a precharged media until it needs it.
Yes it is pre ferted.Would you consider Happy Frog by FoxFarms is charged? I figured it was because I don’t need to feed for 3 weeks following any transplant.
I would wait till it started showing signs of deficiency then try feeding it. So after the first 2-4 weeks. Then try half strength till it shows noticing each growthWould you consider Happy Frog by FoxFarms is charged? I figured it was because I don’t need to feed for 3 weeks following any transplant.
I am using it in Royal Gold Tupur mix + added perlite.I’m going to try this recipe. Was wondering what medium you are using. Would this recipe apply to soil already charged?
When does the Mr. Fulvic and Silica come into play? What are you using for measurements?I’ve finally been able to get the hang of it lol. I’m loving this stuff!!!

I have not used fulvic, and am waiting a little after transplant to give them some silica. Once they show growth I’m adding it to the mix.When does the Mr. Fulvic and Silica come into play? What are you using for measurements?
Also do you feed this on every feed or every other feed?
Picked up the Jack’s A and B for $70! Insane valueSince I am adding my own kelp, amino acids and fulvic acid powders, I was just looking for a mono-silicic acid and decided to go with Grow Genius because GrownGreeMi.com (no affiliation) has the 250ml on hot sale for $109 today right now when it’s normally $150 so I jumped on it lol
After hearing everyone rave about Power Si and Grow Genuis, I was still excited to get GG for that price even though it’s 10x more expensive than potassium silicates lol
This 250ml bottle does about 2200 gallons, so that should last me an entire year or about 3 runs.
They also had Jacks 321 on a stupid sale right now and I got both bags for $69 delivered!
I’m locked and loaded for a year of high quality DWC! Only spent about $350 on everything, and that should last me a year and I got all top tier products that should allow me to crush it in DWC.
Do you use this for soil or hydro or both?
I’ve also been adding Recharge 1 in 5-7 days.
Use Mr. Fulvic from start-to finish at 1ml/gallon drench. In flush, it prevents osmostic pressure and the chelated minerals build brix.When does the Mr. Fulvic and Silica come into play? What are you using for measurements?
