I agree re the BE. One caution about it - 250ppm represents a s*** load of P, which can result in multiple antagonisms (see Mulder’s chart).

I have a blue lab soil ph probe I can get a read once lights are back on.

Jump in anytime you like NTH. I respectfully disagree with those telling you that. At 5.5g, MC only provides 140ppm total N. Far from overfeeding, and not going to cause excess leaves, less buds. More often than not, the P and K are so high that it causes problems with other nutrients.

That diagram always just completely skull “farks” me. Like every time. Ha!!I agree re the BE. One caution about it - 250ppm represents a s*** load of P, which can result in multiple antagonisms (see Mulder’s chart).

In addition, if you have one of the MC formulations that has 18% K, you don’t really need to add any more.

I figured i over did it on BE... it was after I started to use it that I noticed issues unfortunately so I'll drop it for now. Could recharge help at all I got some to try I hear about it a lot.

No, I would just stop using it. How far are you into flower, or how many weeks you think you have left?
Slurry test? Sure!
Here are the slurry test instructions, best performed on a medium that is mostly dry:
• Take samples from a few different places where there are roots (dig down a bit rather than just use the top - I often stick a spoon down the outside edge of the pot to grab some from there as well)
• Add an equivalent amount of distilled water as grams of soil (10 grams of soil, add 10ml water). If that doesn't make a slurry, use enough distilled water to make a stirrable-but-thick slurry.
• Stir it up, wait 15 minutes, stir again. Do that for at least an hour (longer is better), and then put your calibrated pH stick in the water. That's the pH of your medium.
Have you tested that against a slurry test? I don't know how they can measure the pH of the medium when it's dry, or how they can measure the medium's pH when it's wet with nute water.

It's a blue dream I never have ran before but it has just start putting on bud mass I'm going to guess 5 weeks or more left been in flower about 8 weeks

Thanks Shed. I bookmarked the post, so you can take the link off your finger.

I'd have to read the manual again but I do remember the medium has to be wet
It’s almost 11:30p in Portugal - our work is done here and I want to catch some early waves - see you guys tomorrow!

You could reset the Promix, but I think it would be too stressful on the plant at this point. Stick with your current feed for another week, minus the BE, and let the plant try and balance itself out before increasing to 1.5 EC.

Boa noite!It’s almost 11:30p in Portugal - our work is done here and I want to catch some early waves - see you guys tomorrow!
Wet with what? Plain pH'd water? With nutrients? Distilled water? How long after watering? I'm curious as to how that works!
I have this post bookmarked but never knew if the test was accurate.
I find myself finding more journals that I have set to "watch" but not actually get back to it and start reading. So I have started and only about 192 pages behind. Looking forward to seeing what you got going on MrS See you in a couple minutes...

We all lived happily ever after, but not the end. There, you're caught up.
Nice to see you BAR!

Well I could have misinterpreted what I was being told also do I will put that out there. To be truthful I’m probably like a very big number of first time
Enjoy the ride!It’s almost 11:30p in Portugal - our work is done here and I want to catch some early waves - see you guys tomorrow!
