MKP is Mono Potassium Phosphate. It's a dry salt and if you do some research it is the most common ingredient you will find in overpriced watered down bloom boosters.

I'ma need to start from 0 with this, seems I'm compounding my problems.

So let's see
fresh cocogro
fresh rooted clone
v+b hd
ro @20 ppm
1k mh

What would you guys do? I have 22ish pounds of this lol.

What happened?

I NEVER take fresh rooted cuts and stick them under 1k. You have to build them up a bit before you stick them under that intense of a light.

Once again. This has been fool proof for me. I start out at 3 grams per gallon, then ramp up to either 5 grams per gallon or 6 grams per gallon depending on what size plant I am growing. If your plants look underfed, bump things up. If they look overfed, flush them and give them a lower dose

Not trying to be an asshole here....but this stuff is the easiest nutrient base that I have ever used. Not sure how you are having so much trouble.

I hear what ur saying, I guess I gave a bad example. I think I'm having other issues, I know it should just work but it's not... I'll figure it out, thanks for the help.

Ok so I am about to harvest my experiment room this round was done with veg&bloom hd formula and the dirty formula. During veg I hand watered with veg and bloom and gave them nectar of the gods extras additives from there line. When I switched to flower they only got veg&bloom hd and dirty. I am flushing now and will be harvesting next week.
Now there are chemotherapies 3 plants in my 6x8 room under 1 1000 watt. They are drain to waist feedings 4 times a day. I also never used a timer I just unplugged light around 12 hours. Yes I know I should have hooked up the 220 and used my timer but I was lazy. Also no co2 was used I could not afford it this time. I also had feeder problems so if any has a good feeder that doesn't plug up or air lock that would help for next round

Pictures are not the best but should give a good idea

Ok so yesterday j harvested my drain to waiste room. The harvest was so heavy j broke 2 drying lines.
So happy with veg&bloom.
I used the hd and the dirty together for this

clutch419 · Dec 15, 2015

Question has any added push to there watering schedule. Not as a spray but mixed in with your food

Lurkin4yrs · Dec 28, 2015

Hey guys just a little update on using v+b, I've been having nothing but problems but I think I figured it out. I thought I was havin def and nute problems but after reading a bunch I think I may have russet or broad mites. This would explain the weird def etc.

I have some work ahead of me I just purchased a qt of conserve sc and I have avid I'll see if I can fix this mess. I plan to inspect tomarrow, I hope i can see them with my 100x scope

ill eagle · Dec 28, 2015

Fuckin mites. Try forbid in veg, kontos is good too. And don't forget your cuts will dud out for a while if you clone damaged tips. Can take a month to get them back into good form. Push helps the recovery alot

Lurkin4yrs · Dec 28, 2015

I'ma scope everything tonight, I only have my 100x but we will see. I may take some cuts and dip dip dip, clean clean clean then take the healthiest as new moms. Gunna set me back a little while

=(

is what it is.

I'ma wreck it! Lol

Could also be root aphids, from what I hear your plants will present with all sorts of weird def's going on.

Whatever it is, I hope you kick it's ass.

Lurkin4yrs · Dec 29, 2015

Better it be root aphids then those damn broads or russetts.think it was @WeSolidarity that did a writeup on caps bennies taking out the root aphids.gl

Lurkin4yrs · Jan 9, 2016

it's weird but im happy it's root aphids lol, I treated today with merit75. Seems the plants are bouncin back after transplant and giving them some asprin, I think they need a little more ppms but other wise there looking much better.

Thanks guys

I've been running about 1.6ec(lookin like there still alittle hungry) under a mix of t5's and 1k mh. I think I'll bump it to 1.8 and see what they look like, I just don't want to give the ones under t5's too much
