PK Perpetual Grow Journal 2020

really don't see issues ..
everything is looking good to me. if it's in the scrog get us a pic under normal light.

if it's just what the instruments are telling you ... go by the plants. and carry on.

3 mc 2 part 1 week. I followed the guide and ppm 1700 ph 6.

4 amazing scales very accurate.
5i only use tnc bactor13 hydromax and tricor coco. There bebeficial fungi. Gln said was fine. They contain humics that make nutes more avalible chelation. And kelp traces gln said was fine.

In the hydro i mixed a tea up with worm cast as i use them for rot rot prevention. I cure root rot in days no chems.
Done it for years even without chillers i can cure a root rot tank in a week at 24degrees. Not mine a friends wash them over water. New tank bennie tea in nutes 3days later and more tea root rot gone and new white roots.

The mix i use litetatly i root cuttings in it in 5 days i spray houseplants with it. Years and on side by sides they protect and double my root zone. Strong symbic relationship. If anythings amiss they normaly sort it.

In coco i innoculate tricor its for coco. And feed the tea by hand weekly if i feel they need it it has trace elements also its not a food its aftercare trust u cud not overdose this i soak seeds in it seriously its just bennies.

They only seemd to effect my hydro but im not sosure thst ppm there wasnt osmosis effect leeching advsnced leftovers ontop after the swap over hydro was 2000ppm ive done a half change to 1200ppm as she has nitrogen curling slightly

Yup she look good to me

I still have to get through my bag of 1 part but once I do I may go the route of the 2 part for hydro. That is still probably a year away at my current rate and what I have left of that big bag.

Yup the 30 sum daller bag lasted me two full grows for 30 bucks can’t beat that

So ignore my tds at 1700 ahha yeah go by grams and throw it in the draw?

lol, you just made me delete whole lot of info

ya go per grams and depending on where your ppm of feeding is you need to walk your plants towards the suggested ppm on the calculator

meaning: The calculator info is your total and you just need to go towards it before you can go to next step.

need more nutrient., just bring the grams per gallon to a higher rate

So, 1 gallon of water asks for 1.5A and 2.5B find out what the ppm is. Keep in mind your initial ppm at 335 + the mc ppm
then figure how much grams you need to feed the ppm required for the plant. hope that makes sense

i would also use different type of water. Or perhaps use rain water or stored water.
335 is loco!

So. I go by liter u go by galon.

So my hydro is on 4.2g a and 2.5g b
My coco is on 2.5ga 2.5g b

And 1700ppm haha


Again this is per gallon as it may be easyer for ya to see


So ya mean dont add it all? Cause if i follow the gper gal and try bring it up to the ppm gln and base im only gona use half of it

If i half it arnt i adding 2.1 instead of 4.2 then?
 
@Pondwater another tip. type out the info, when you say 4.2ga b makes people confused.

its 4.2grams of part A and 4.2grams of part B

because
g=grams
g=gallon
g-godzilla
:cheesygrinsmiley:


what ppm where you feeding the plants before you changed

Wahaha shit ok lol sorry.

Il try again

So my hydro is on
4.2grams bag a per gal
2.5grams of bag b per gal

My coco is on
2.5gams per gal bag a
2.5 grams per gal bag b

And 1700ppm haha


Again this is per gallon as it may be easyer for ya to see

My mrs will go spare if she sees you teachibg me grammar she tried for years, hehe best not show her this.

lol, no idea what that ending is saying, but i take its a good thing lol.

maybe @Pennywise can add something to this or remove it as i haven't grown in coco yet
But for coco, i would make a dosage in a bucket and feed the coco from that bucket. because coco needs feeding couple times and if you have a good bucket you can mix everything in and just water the plants there it would be allot easier. Just make sure it has a air pump or a pump in there to keep everything agitated

Also, when you mention your coco is on 2.5 grams of part A and 2.5 of part B that means you are ready to get to finish line. Now when you were using that AN or NA or whatever product it was. What was the ppm on that?

1700 is correct for 2.5 grams of part A and 2.5grams of part B

if you were feeding the plants at 900ppm then you need to put 50% or so of that mixed water with just normal tap water and diluted to lower ppm rates.
 
If you’re using coco feed daily with lower dosage of nutes. In flower you may have to feed 2-3 times each light on cycle. Never let coco dry out if it starts getting lighter in color water it.

There he goes the clown guru pdub always makes it look so simple ! Like he always told me simple is better don’t scratch ur head at it much go with the flow !
 
i'm sure we all are waiting to seem some sort of pictures. Here is two in different lightings to show how she looks.

My coco is on feed timers from a big tote.

In veg i start 4 feeds a day.
Late veg 8 feeds a day.
Flower i move to every hour while lights on and 2 while off.

The more u watwr coco the bigger they get. Less u water more problems occour and smaller yields. If you allow coco to dry you cause potassium and calcim problems almost instantly.
When i watered 2 times aday i was on 0.5grams per watt.
Moved up 4 feeds and increased alot.
Since i feed like this hourly im hitting 1.2grams per watt the same as my hydro does. So im turning that coco too.

Its full halo flood rings each 4 plants has a 2000lph pump that turns on from a imperium feed timer.

Any waste water is collected by a brain and pumped to a waste pipe outside.



.. So your saying the 1700 is correct but dont use it like that? What?



if you were feeding the plants at 900ppm then you need to put 50% or so of that mixed water with just normal tap water and diluted to lower ppm rates

Mix salts up seperatly in water like i am seperate bottle for each. But dont add them all?
Add them till i get 870ppm with base equally to my restank 100litres


Still not using the full salts per gram doing that though right?

i don't know all that but you feed coco when its needed and you don't let it dry out. If its takes two hours for it to be less moist then sure.

ya, cuz you got 335 ppm base water level and when you add mc it brings it raises the number.
Thats why the tds is showing a different number then the calculator.

The calculator is only giving you a reading that you need to reach, that's different than to feed.
However, you should try to read the plant. if you notice you are getting tip burns then mix more water then your mc mix.

if you read back few pages @The Phantom went throw it with me while i posted pictures.
We've explained the process of how i did it.
I'm a bit off on the exact numbers cuz the mixed mc water ppm reading doesn't really matter. The ppm that you feed the plant does matter. So you grab as much as you need from your mixed mc water mix it with just tap water based on the ppm you are trying to achieve.

with your hydro i'm not sure what type of rez you are using, but my dwc is 5 gallon and i am only holding 4gallon of water 3.78 Liter = 1 gallon
so i mixed 6grams of part A and 10 grams of part b in a separate bucket. Since my ppm is 20 i just throw away 25% of the water which was quarter of the bucket and just filled it with tap water which brought my ppm to 420ish:high-five:

You have to consider the ppm of your water and mix properly. if possible, I'd suggest using better water system.
what is your ph at with tap water?
