Hello growmies,
So i had a bit of trouble balancing my nutrients this grow. I flushed my medium and got a rapitest kit to test the nutrients. It came back as too much nitrogen and potassium and not enough phosphorus. So my question is does anyone have any recommendations as for a liquid fertilizer high in phosphorus without anything else or at least low in potassium. I was using the vivosun line but i switched to the foxfarm. I would like to stick with one brand of possible. I was thinking of adding the bembe sweet and dandy to the feeding schedule but it’s higher in potassium then phosphorus i belive. I’m using easy bloom tablets from rqs right now but I’m almost out so I’m not sure if i should get more of those or try something else. I’m using 1g fabric pots with coco perlite 70 30 mix. Ro water with tps calmag plus.

If you want to up just one nute, then just buy a nutrient that is only that one nutrient. Everything you are using is just a synthetic nutrient, so it really doesn’t make any difference what brand you buy. And you test may just reflect that your plant is using more of that nutrient during that part of it’s growth cycle.
And you keep posting every single question on a different thread, you need to keep all your questions in one spot, then everyone can see what problems and questions you had in the past. It’s called a grow log. And there is a menu item for it. Anytime you put up a new question, it will put your log and the question up at the top of the list for everyone to see.

Just pick one that you already started, change the title and make it a grow log. Then add everything on that single thread. We have people with 6-7 year long grows, all on one. Just move from one grow to the next. Just look at @wow_arizona log. Or mine, but mine isn’t as long, or @happilyretired goes for years.
Gotta start somewhere lol.

Yeah man were missing out! Post all about your grows. I have years and years of grows on here. Every strain that i want people to see that i have created. I posted the entire grows from seed to weed here. A lot of new members dont realize if you touch on someone’s avitar and then on activity and then topics. You can see all the threads created by that person or grower and there is loads of information. If your not sure where to find anything…use the magnifying glass at the top right of the search screen. And it will find all the words your looking for in all the threads and give you a list to go through.

you know it takes about 1 week for the nutrients to work after you feed the plant also:
Organic nutrients feed the soil via roots to plants
Chemical Nutes feed the plant directly to root system
maybe your nutrients are OK - consider feeding only 1-2x’s a week ---- also check your amounts ---- No every days feeding + use 1/2 suggested amounts
Hope this amounts - Happy Cultivation
