Or you can just go buy a bottle of Mammoth P.
Phosphates are not easily available to the plants by their sticky nature. Hence why most bloom formulas have massive amounts of P.
Er no I’m just saying the plant needs less food towards the end of its cycle. So I don’t see any point in hammering it with high levels of feeds
I'm a coir grower.It depends on the type of P....i have heard phosphite is best P204 is next P205 needs to be broken down...outdoors i wouldnt think it matters get phosphoderma enzymes fungi keep up with it and you should be fine no need for mammoth P. Hydro, coco, or soiless i would add mam P. But i use soil and amendments along with my mycos and compost teas....i just gotta get my overwatering hand if the gd watering can...lmfao
This is a little experiment I did on a plant with high anthocyanin levels present. This plant went the last 4 week with nothing but plain tap water in coir dtw. Didn't turn out to bad for a starved plant.View attachment 810068
I know there is a direct relation to Mg and P uptake but whether it's media driven or plant driven I don't have a clue. I would tend to think both from my experience.Guys, does mg mobilize P in the plant or just in the soil?
I dont agree w that either....the last few wks of flower leading up to flush they shud be eating and drinking just as much if not more than they ever have up to that point.
Why do u think bloom boosters w super high pk numbers are intended for use during the final 4 wks of flower. If ur plants r finishing strong and if u grew them right up till then u shud be watering and feeding a lot.
You need to take that one step farther . I let the plants tell me what my nutrient profile and pH should be.a lot has been said since this post but i still feel like a reply is warranted. when growing in RDWC i never used a feed chart. i always went off the old school method i was taught by the guy who taught me. you monitor what is going on in the res and adjust accordingly. in this way you can keep your feed dialled perfectly to the needs of your plants. this is what i am basing my opinion off. not what a nute manufacturer tells me i should be doing.

What do u mean "fuck with tbe ripening "?
talk to me baby!You need to take that one step farther . I let the plants tell me what my nutrient profile and pH should be.
Tried mammoth p. and did a side by side with identical clones and exact same feed. Absolutely no difference in the end. Glad it was a free sample!Or you can just go buy a bottle of Mammoth P.

That's cuz I think mammoth p was designed to help those that are overloading with too much "excess" P,which I think most of us have established isn't really needed in high doses,K is much more important for "fruiting" plants.Tried mammoth p. and did a side by side with identical clones and exact same feed. Absolutely no difference in the end. Glad it was a free sample!
+1 !! Well said...I mean I’d rather the plant started naturally transitioning into the final flush than I feed it heavily and then have to force flush it. I found the former works better in terms of quality final product and the latter “fucks with the ripening”
It could be,enough crap here flushing is certainly in need haha or flushing money down the drain,it's all connected somehow.God damn I'm such a hack I thought this was the flushing thread,can't keep up with these formz :facepalm:
Sorry, no threads running. If you have a question just ask but I'm no big time grower anymore but I'll be happy to share what knowledge I do know about growing these plants.do you have a thread on here i could follow?. i would be interested to see what you got going on
On my first use of the free samples I experienced the same reaction as you. Just happened they had gotten new samples in with a stock of the Mammoth P. Only then did I see results comparable to their claims.Tried mammoth p. and did a side by side with identical clones and exact same feed. Absolutely no difference in the end. Glad it was a free sample!
What is this science crap? It’s a weed, the laws of physics don’t apply. Regurgitated anecdotal hearsay is all you need :facepalm:So for those of you interest I just found this video and it does a fairly good job of explaining how I get my flowers to set faster than what you are used to seeing. Not really new science as DTW tomato growers have been using it for decades.
