Update nute shock...lock out?
Alright guys sorry for the long update. I have been pretty upset H&G's calculator has been down.
In my past grows before this new MPB system i have always used the nute calculator. Well its down so I decided to feed based off what the lables on the bottle read.
I fed with aqua A and B and exactly what the bottles list, which is 1 liter of nutes to every 250 liters of feed water, I have 750 liters of feed water. I checked my PPM's after adding Aqua A and B and before adding my additives...
WOW 1800 ppm's! I knew this couldnt be right so i calibrated my meters...and again 1800 ppm's. So I drained and flushed he system, fed based on PPM's and got them to 1,000 for my first week of flower.
Only now 2 of my plants are dieing. The strongest one in the middle is doing "OK" and another one seems to still be doing "ok" but only time will tell.
I'm pretty mad at my self for not feeding solely on PPM's like I should have. And also upset that a company like
house and garden would have there Nute calculator that so many rely on down for so long is unacceptable.
Well I'm getting my next clones ready now, and hope I at least get 2 pounds off my big plant and 1 pound off the second strongest plant. And will learn from this one.
I will update with pics tonight.
Thanks,
