I try not to them swing to much as I leave my reservoir a tad stronger. Maybe they shift 20ppms from the beginning of the week to the end. I am adding pH up once or twice a week as it likes to fall towards the middle to end of the week.

I just did some research about mega crop. Kinda crazy the new one is all you need start to finish. Reading about it I would definitely use hydroguard or UC Roots along with it. And also towards the end a booster like you’re saying. I’ve never heard of it before. I’ve been using current culture figure I’d go with the manufacture of my hydroponic systems nutes. This is something I might look into for next grow. You only use mega crop now? I’m assuming you’re satisfied with your results.

Yeah I use mega crop and magnesium sulfate (Epsom salt) with a very small amount of monopotassium phosphate (pk booster) in flower from week 3-6 in an 8 week strain.

Never use canna a and b but also have heard good things about it and I can't see anything wrong with using it.

Hydrogaurd is an amazing product except the bacteria used actually thrive in soil and not hydro. Thats why it needs added weekly but still worth it IMO. I run live and use denitrifying bacteria also. I find once my plant are 3-4 weeks I can stop hydrogaurd as long as he keep my denitrifying bacteria happy

So since I’m on week 7. Would you say just use magnesium sulfate just for this week and then stop?

How long does the strain run? Last 2-3 weeks I just use epsom. Nothing else besides my base nutrients

The strain runs 8 weeks and I saw your message say from weeks 3-6 but was that just for PKs? And you run Epsom salt throughout the whole duration?

Yeah with my base nutes I have to run mag sulfate starting at week 3 of veg through the whole grow. The new mega crop apparently from what I have seen doesn't need it. PK I only run small amounts from week 3-6. But I could probably skip it all together to be honest.

Okay but for my set up now with my current culture nutes. You thinking just elimate my bud boosters and use mag sulfate with my bloom A and B? I also use cococal and UC roots every week from seedling to the end.
You will get varying opinions but yeah I would cut out the pk and just use the a/b with epsom, cococal and UC roots.

I use a different nutrient but if it were me that's what I would do. On an 8week strain they are a bit to dark for what I shoot for at week 7 so you could prob cut to 300ppm now. It's likely gonna go 9 weeks so this should help the plant start using up some of its stored nutrients a nice light grass green is where I like it but would rather it be underfed than over fed .

@Aqua Man yo man just to give you an update my fan leaves haven’t changed at all. I’ll send some updated pictures tomorrow as I just started week 8. I’m at 320ppm and 6.0 pH.

At 6 ph I would drop it back down to 5.6

Your leaves will not get better once damaged, over fed or underfed but if it's not getting worse then your on the right track.

I brought my pH down. Below are some pics as I’m entering week 8 of flower. What do you think? Should I go 9 weeks?

Also do you think I my problems were from to much bud booster? Like I said I never had any leaf issues during the flowering stage till week 5 when I started bud booster.

This is my first grow ever. I’m hoping it turns out good. Its white widow.
