I am using the GH Flora Series with my current run that is 4.5 weeks into flower. I have moved away from the feeding charts on their site, based on the info I got from talking with a GH tech. I am currently using the following: grow: 3ml/gallon micro: 5ml/gallon bloom: 12ml/gallon H202: 3tsp/20gallons @ 35% It comes in at around 800-850ppm. I have done this for the last couple waterings, and the girls seem to be enjoying it. Anyone else have experience with this? How should I augment this, more/less Grow/bloom/micro? Thanks in advance, Erik | ||

 | @4.5 weeks of flower I wouldn't use the grow formula. Have you heard of the Lucas formula? It's a simplified formula only using flora micro and flora bloom. It works well for growing cannabis.

| That is what I thought too, however the guy from GH said that there is potassium or phosphorus, I am not sure which in it too. | ||

| That sounds about right. I use the GH Flora series and use a similar ratio for my nutes.

| Thanks for the replies guys. I am just a little hesitant to put all my trust into a GH tech that I havn't met, and who probably doesn't grow THIS stuff. Cheers | ||

| I use the 3 part GH Flora as well. I use 3-2-2 G-M-B for veg & 1-2-3 for flowering. I'm not pleased with the flowering regimen (too much grow); I think you are using better ratios.

| I think once I've used up the rest of my GH nutes, I'm going to give AN a shot for my next grow... At least their bloom ferts.

| If the plants like it, it's a good mix! That does seem quite high on the 35% H2O2 though, unless you're having some pathogen problems you might consider backing off on that.  penguin | ||

| As far as the H202 is concerned, I am actually using less than the guide I found here reccomended. I am just not diluting it to 3% before I mix it. The girls seem to love it. Another questions with this, I have heard people say you have to wait 20 minutes to water after mixing in your H202. Is this true, and if so why? | ||

| Another question for those of you who have used Flora before...How high can you PPM go with this food as compared to others, or is there any difference at all? I am tempted to take it up to 1000 or so to see what happens with my Imported Purple Kush. | ||
