Is that for a cake?
The Professor does alright with just sandy soil and MegaCrop!This store bought LOS is not cheap either.lol. I did want to give it a whirl before so bit the bullet and now got 4 x37lt pots full of it at £30 a pot + the amendments too. soil for life is a selling point if no tilling with it. hoping now adding mc into it works wonders. I run 8 coco in 20lt so will be interesting for comparing with MC in both.

If you're in soil or Pro(Faux,Praux)Mix, it's not a good idea to water on a schedule. I water based on lifting the plots to see if they're light. In veg I let them get lighter, and in flower not as light. But I never water based on when I last watered.Is anyone keeping soil moist during flowering? I know @Emilya was discussing it in her water treatise and wondered how it went (is currently going?) or if anyone else does that? Debating whether a daily watering is warranted (my temps are staying high 70's to low 80's and daytime RH has been only 35%.
For veg, I run a wet/dry cycle. In flower Im keeping them moist. Less volume, more frequency. Also something I was recently made aware of, is the last 2 weeks of flower, the plant really slows down drinking.Is anyone keeping soil moist during flowering?

Soil for life is a misnomer in my book if you have to keep amending it. You're just trading one kind of "fertilizer" for another.
Doc's kit needs to be amended during the grow! A lot of the LOS growers will top dress or water with teas during the grow. Even Van Stank (whose water-only soil grows the most amazing plants) will sometimes top dress for a specific plant, usually in flower.Doc's kit does

For comparison, hydroponic nutrient regimens tend to push the K a lot harder than what's in most soils and the ladies will gobble all of it up which helps them grow bigger and faster, but in doing so, they uptake less calcium and the cells don't have as much strength, but the only real downside to that that I ever witnessed is thinner branches to hold up the heavier buds.
I've kind witnessed this in my change to Mega Crop from Dyna Gro. I used to target a N-P-K of 3-1-2 and changed up to 2-1-4. My plants are bigger but the stems are not as stout. It's almost like they grow so fast that they never get a chance to beef up stems. As long as the yields are greater, which they have been, it's just something I'll deal with.
Even with the silica addition? Interesting to know.
