Tweedy's Profile, help with a few things?

[tweedy]

It will behoove everyone if they can bust out their scales and double check my math but I think I have figured out a week by week schedule with jacks and raw salts that'll kill it ala cultured solutions as its based off the same profile.

Where you come in? I have no notes with me as I'm at the in laws but need to know the weights in grams of the following teaspoons (separate of course, not combined weight).

Potassium Nitrate, jacks, calcium nitrate, monopotassium phosphate, potassium sulfate, and that should be it. Can't think if I am missing anything but once I have these I can give you guys a more accurate play by play each week.

It's looking like solid gold on paper as I can literally see every reason for their profile being ran the way it is when I broke it down to elemental ppm. Its also in line with a lot of very well respected farmers around these parts.

definitely on the right track. :)

Okay, no one has sprung to action here so I'll just put it down in teaspoons per gallon and see if anyone can see fault in my math.

All figures are in teaspoons per gallon and this is all subject to change when I start playing around with ammonium to nitrate levels to make it work best for my environment (so the sulfur and calcium levels might change a bit but should stay roughly the same)

Veg
.34 Jack's
.066 Potassium Nitrate
.64 Calcium Nitrate

Veg
166-24-130-158.4-27.8-36.12 (full strength, dilute to whatever you see fit or follow the feed guide I've made below)

Flower
.38 Jack's
.066 Potassium Nitrate
.68 Calcium Nitrate
.185 Mono Potassium Phosphate
.16 Potassium Sulfate

Flower
172-80-286-165.6-32.86-74.36 (full strength, dilute to whatever you see fit or follow the feed guide I've made below)

Bloom Booster (0-52-105 at full strength)
.165 Mono Potassium Phosphate
.08 Potassium Sulfate

Week 2 - 60%
Week 3 - 80%
Week 4 - 100%

Week 2 - 85.7% Bloom
147.4 - 68.56 - 245.1 - 141.92 - 28.16 - 63.72

Week 3 - 85.7% Bloom and 30% Bloom Booster
147.4 - 98.56 - 308.1 - 141.92 - 28.16 - 63.72

Week 4 - 100% Bloom and 50% Bloom Booster
172 - 130 - 391 - 165.6 - 32.86 - 90.2

Week 5 - 100% Bloom and 70% Bloom Booster
172 - 150 - 433 - 165.6 - 32.86 - 96.54

Week 6 - 85.7% Bloom and 80% Bloom Booster
147.4 - 148.56 - 413.1 - 141.92 - 28.16 - 89.06

Week 7 - 42.8% Bloom and 100% Bloom Booster
73.6 - 134.24 - 332 - 70.88 - 14.06 - 63.5

Week 8 - 28.57% Bloom and 80% Bloom Booster
49.14 - 102 - 249.72 - 47.32 - 9.38 - 46.6

That's all folks, my math is bound to be off but this seems like it might be the ticket to a good run next time. Going to start ordering my bags as soon as some space frees up.

nice start but I am not sure I want to weigh anything by the teaspoon...

.066 tsp/gal? really?

P look way too high for me. especially week 4-7.

These figures will likely be ran at half to 3/4 strength so were you saying too high in relation to other nutrients or just too high in the listed profile as far as concentration is concerned? And I was just using an easy npk calc that did things in teaspoons per gallon, not grams as I unfortunately don't have any of the salts I've listed above in stock to measure with my scale to get easier figures to work with.

Thanks for the reply though!

Like I said earlier, math might be off due to rudimentary calculator.

Where are you getting your ratios from? You have a higher N:K ratio in veg then I have ever noticed anyone using before and your P in flower up to 150 ppm.Mg seems low in mid flower, S seems high at week 8 assuming a 10 week flower cycle. JK

I copied Current Cultures bottle numbers and used the above mentioned "Easy NPK calc". Like I said, these figures could likely be off due to the rudimentary nature of my math and lack of actual molecular weights/real calculations for nutrient amounts. This is following their bottles at 100% strength and then their corresponding feed chart (the percentage values of the bottles at full strength). I am just seeing good results and mimicking cheaply (hopefully).

 

[tweedy]

Most folks run their current culture at half strength in their buckets so all of those concerned with p levels, it will be roughly half of that in my system. Thoughts?

 

[Jalisco Kid]

I was not looking at what you were using, just the numbers you were trying to reach.Who knows maybe those are good ratios for that system. JK

Appreciate the responses. I had asked someone with a real nute calculator to reverse engineer the Cultured Solutions formula as I had seen good results in folks' RDWC systems and no one stepped up to the plate so this is my amateur stab at it. I do not endorse these formulas as I have never seen them work, just figured if someone had some salts laying around they could play.
