Grow Mediums some clarification please :)

Hey all!I guess it was time to stop being a lurker and contribute to AFN. I have about 6-8 full hydroponic grows under my belt with a few photo strains with what I would agree to be stellar results. 3-4 oz per plant using 4 1000w mh/hps and General Hydroponics complete "expert recirculating" feed schedule and nutes. 18 site flo N gro ebb n flow system. I have however grown guerilla style outdoor, some autos. Bam/cheese etc. All with decent results. Anyhow I cant really bring myself to do a soil indoor grow so I will be doing 6 red poison indoors under 1000w hps and this is my first auto hydro grow. I have read that autos dont like alot of nutes and also that hydro may be different as far as feeding. Also im getting conflicting reports that some use only micro and bloom of the Gh line because of the short veg in autos lifespan. Well I have also read that they do need some N heavy nutes and a good ammount to grow bigger and thus...increasing yields. Specially some of the bigger ones from dutch passion. In short. Anyone use similar nutes lineup and setup? If so what ppm did you run and at what week did you increase? And what was your max in bloom before flush? Ive done a fair ammount of research and I think im getting he said she said results. Anyone that has actually had success with competitive yids share a log or chime in. Many thanks for all who reply. Glad I joined!

Welcome P. Farmer,

So General Hydroponics nutrients ay?

Some hydro guru's who use the GH nutes should be along shortly.

I don't do hydro with my auto's, but if I reply to your thread here, it will bump it back up to the top of the list.

Thanks for lurking, and then joining!

:Sharing One:

Peace

Eek

I'm doing DWC and my plan going into this to use the KISS principle. I built my system and I used General Hydroponics Maxi Grow, and Maxi Bloom. I feed mine Grow until about day 3o then switched to Bloom. That's it, no fancy additive, etc. But you can see the proof for your self. There are many other ways you can go I know, but this has been such an easy grow I'm glad I chose this route!

Hey pop22! Thanks for the reply. I think my only problem is getting to ....let's say day 14. Once there I can feed judging by looks untill bloom. The early nute, to transition is the part im having trouble with. How much veg nutes do you use ppm-wise.
Thanks again for your response
