New Grower Healthy Plants, but weird splotches

[ThaGreenBandit]

Their website has all of the information (including NPK values) about their nutes and products!

Grow Pack (Vegetative Stage nutes): https://www.kelp4less.com/shop/grow-pack/
Bloom Pack (Flowering Stage nutes: https://www.kelp4less.com/shop/bloom-pack/
Extreme Blend (Foiler feeding): https://www.kelp4less.com/shop/powder-extreme-blend/
Kloning Powder (For assisting in germination or starting clones): https://www.kelp4less.com/shop/cloning-powder/
Dolomite Lime (For calcium and PH buffering): https://www.kelp4less.com/shop/dolomite/

When it's all said and done, I'm pretty sure I won't be the only member wanting to know how they worked out for you! Since they're all natural, I'm very interested in knowing how they affected the smell, and especially the flavor

Also, can I get a good reliable PH meter for under $50? Any recommendations for when I have some funds to get one?

Sorry to be coming late to the party, but if funds are an issue you might consider something like THIS. It's probably not going to be the best in longevity, but for 14 dollars and it comes with the calibration buffers you need I consider it a good deal.

Wow thanks for everyone stopping by my thread! Now I need to figure out a new feeding regime with these. I think what Faded posted a few replies back is a good starting point (maybe it was PM I don't remember I'm quite behind at the moment lol). The problem is that I've been working long hours so I haven't had much time since I picked all this stuff up to figure out what to do with it, and I need to water tomorrow, the plants are dry.

I'm guessing there was supposed to be a link somewhere in this post? If not, click HERE. haha.

Yeah I'll keep ya posted, especially when I figure out exactly what I'm doing with them .

Alright, with Faded suggestions, this is what I'm gonna do:

First, I'm going to change my feeding schedule to every other watering instead of every watering. At this point they need water every 3 days or so.

Today, flush with 2 gallons of water per pot, let sit for an hour, 3rd gallon water, half strength grow, half strength bloom nutes. I'll also be adding this dolomite to the top of the soil before watering with the last gallon and let it soak down into the soil.

Next will be just a watering, and depending on how they're looking I might add a little mg with Epsom salt.

Next watering, again depending on how they are looking, I'll boost em up with a little more bloom only nutes. We'll play it by ear but this sounds like a good start to these new nutes to me . Thanks, Faded, for your suggestions!

I'll be posting updates so check back for more!

Thanks Medi! That looks good on the wallet for sure! I appreciate it.


Plants are looking good 24 hrs after I flushed them real good and then fed with new nutes. I'll take some pics shortly.

I'm interested in seeing what these nutes do for your plants, BubbleK. I watched the video and all that! I'm really looking forward to seeing how they affect the taste, smell, and burn of the bud, as opposed to how chemical nutrients do.

Today is day 34. Yesterday the plants got a nice flush and the following (new line) of good stuff:
Dolomite lime added to top of soil - 2 tbs per pot, soaked into the soil by the water mixture.
1/2 strength of the Grow Pack. (1/4 tsp Grow Pack A, 1/4 tsp Grow Pack B)
1/2 strength of the Bloom Pack. (1/2 tsp)

I haven't had a chance to try this new foiler feed yet. I'm already getting some good buds starting to develop so I'm not sure I'll get a chance to use it. I certainly don't want to end up with mold.

Damn you are ahead of me! I haven't had a chance to watch their vids yet. I hardly had enough time to get them watered/fed yesterday. I worked a 16 day, picked up about 15 hrs overtime during the last 3 days. Too bad I'm salary haha. Maybe I'll spark up a bowl and watch them while I'm getting caught up on my relaxation tonight.
