Switch to Lucas Formula (Hempy Bucket Grow) 1st grow
permalink
I am 10 days into 12/12 and we got buds a grownin!!! I have been using 5ml 5ml 5ml of GH 3part. The girls have to get watered tomorrow and I am planning to switch over to 8ml micro hardwater and 16ml bloom to 1 galllon for the rest of the grow.

Even at 5/5/5 I have to dilute down to 500-550ppm or they burn. Seem to be real sensitive 25%/75% Sativa/Indica (God Bud)

So I am assuming I can mix up 2 gal. with 16ml micro and 32ml bloom and add water to get my PPM down around 500ppm???

I dont want to burn these babies everything is looking great so far!!

All feedback is much appreciated. Long Live the Hempy Bucket

Jim

Every strain has it's likes and dislikes. Learn what you preferred strain can tolerate and go for it!! As long as you keep your ratios proper, shouldnt matter if you mix up 2 or 10 gallons, But you better be a lot bigger than I am to shake up a 10 gallon jug!!

Good luck on the grow!!

the lucas formula is low in N for bloom so it will be hard to burn them as long as you stick to the 8-16 per gallon, you also have to be under HID lighting to use the formula full strength.

macro is added 1st for a reason, so it can bond, after bonded you add the bloom. so you are actually better off when mixing 8 and 16 into 2gals. for 500ppms (note: these numbers are with average tap water not RO.) as stated above 50% will be un-bonded and plain water. this has always been my understanding.
