Lol.. There will never be a such thing as a one part cannabis nutrient. Cannabis, like most flowering plants, canna requires different nutrients, in different amounts, at different times. It was a simple question, lol. And a legit one at that. It wasn't meant to upset the MC faithful.
I got pretty much the same results. Also there's a little something that doesn't quite dissolve readily. If you stir it in a bucket, you can see it in the center of the bucket at the bottom. It's a light color and sorta translucent. It does take a bit for it to fully dissolve. I mix it up and do other things and come back to it.
My advice to new growers like yourself, is to take some time to start learning the cannabis plant and how the nutrients work.. What nutrients a canna plant needs, at what levels, and when.. Learn the needs, growth patterns, deficiencies, ect. Learn about when to water and when to feed (which are two different things).. Same with the medium and nutrient lines you are using.. Learn how they work together, how they interfere with each other ect..I hate to see you guys having so much trouble just trying to feed the plant correctly. I don't have all of the answers, but I promise you, that the plant does! It will show you exactly what nutrients it needs if/ when it needs it.. If you are overfeeding, under watering, if it's stressed, ect, the plant will show you. We have to learn how to read those signs. Mega crop has a heavy npk ratio.. If you are growing in soil, you may only need to actually feed the plant a few times (the plant will tell you).. If you are in hydro or coco, then you should be using their feed calculator to get the proper dosage. 5-12-26 is far too heavy for a seedling.. So it must be mathematically reduced to lower those ratios to fit each stage of growth. That's why they market MC as "customizable". Feed charts are "recommendations".. Not laws. And 99% of the time, these feed charts and nutrient lines, aren't designed for autos that veg for only a few weeks and spends most of its life in flower. That's a huge factor to consider in feeding and following feeding charts. That's why people recommend starting any nutrient line at half strength.. A little fyi, the term/word "crop" in gardening refers to grains, fruits, and veggies.. not flowers..
I am not new to growing. I've ran into lots of problems throughout growing the past few years but always corrected it and never had plants look this stressed. But I made errors starting off in soil. I'm learning soil growing so it's new to me compared to dwc hydro and so is MC but I wasnt adjusting ph at first and then was feeding nutes every day. I learned from man o green a better feed schedule and how to flush soil plants and re feed on a better npk ratio. Now I feed then water twice before feeding again. @Mañ'O'Green helped me allot and I learned where i was screwing up by overfeeding. The ph I knew right away i just was waiting on funds and then got a cheap liquid test drop kit for a few weeks til I cud order my bluelab combo meter which I got now. I think I just might a beat em up bad before this point by grower errors. So my next run shud be less problems now I learned more about soil growing and dialing in MC. But this first run been a bitch. I sold all my equipment and hydro gear when my lungs collapsed twice last year so I started over in soil to be easier on me and upgraded to leds which I thank god I did (rocking old school 1000 watt magnetic ballast/hps for flower and high output t5 for veg b4.) No tents before either. I built a much better set up this time. Costed lots of cash along the way and it was a process to get where I'm at now compared to when I started growing again. I grew dwc hydro b4 this so it is a new learning experience though. A little different than hydro but now I think I got it down good. I just dont think there gonna bounce back to healthy looking from the ph lockout first then the overfeeding. I grew 4 plants a time before. Now I am worked up to a 12 plant system which is legal here in Michigan. 4 autos planted every 4 weeks is what I'm starting now. Perpetual harvest once a month once its rocking. I probably just beat em to hell from starting off low on funds and grower errors by overfeeding. I'm thinking I'll be able to dial it in better from now on tho thanks to man o green!
Yes I got a 4 stage tankless ro. Takes my tap from 150ppm .500 scale to 0ppm according to my bluelab combo meter. I havent used additional calmag cuz @Mañ'O'Green said I shouldn't need it with the 2 part formula.
