That damn Octopot with either Texas Tomato or Mega Crop has made around 13 ounces off one plant twice now, I definitely think that she could be just what you need!

Hey, I am stepping out and trying new things and now my yields are up blowing away what I did before with inconsequential quality loss.

I think my previous record yield was 8 ounces before Octpots. Since Octopots 12 ounces is about an average. And I just dump 5 grams/gallon of MegaCrop and 5mL/gallon of CalMag in there. That's it. I don't look to the plant for any cues, etc. I am an ok grower, definitely not on the level of a lot of people here. The Octopot does all the heavy lifting for you.

Agreed it does do alot of the work. And the fact it hybrodizes it's root system to tale what ever the heck it needs is mega... half my problem was finding a happy watering schedule... since I started pissing about with the octopots, everything's ran smoother then a baby's bum...

Hey, I am just following the directions that good growers who have gone before me have set out. I am good at following directions and it works. Doesn't give me a green thumb.
But happy to hear you are liking it.

Hey @BrixNewb ,
Are you leaning more towards megacrop than TTF?
- Thread starter
- #1,193
No, I haven't used TTF enough to say I am leaning more towards one or the other. I have used TTF on a few plants but not enough to make a judgement. I have used Mega Crop at 5 grams per gallon with CalMag at 5mL per gallon and usually add Silica as well. I have gotten 19.35 ounces from one plant in an Octopot with Mega Crop. So I know that Mega Crop is capable of doing the job with good quality and yield. I am almost out of Mega Crop and will start running just TTF. So it will be a couple months before I am equipped to answer that question. I am hoping TTF can do just as good because I like the ease of mixing and feeding versus Mega Crop which takes a few minutes to dissolve. But time will tell.

So you got the 13 zips off MC ?

Yes, but that's more of an average versus a record yield. I think at this point Mega Crop is a very solid nutrient line but your yield will be heavily dependent on the genetics.

Thanks for the info, keep me posted if you come to a definitive conclusion.
