Got mine from kelp4less.com I’m thinking Jack’s may need a little adjusting depending on strain and environment. Not sure yet. Others are using it as directed with no issues. Even greengenes says he has to tweak his a bit. But it is said that all you should need to do is adjust A and B as needed n that’s about it. I saw greengene adding npk on one of his vids in flower so I tried and it’s working. Maybe just dumb luck lol.

No I have not. I started these two plants in 50/50 FFOF and neutral soil mix. Around 5 weeks I started to notice signs of deficiencies in the leaves and I started Jacks right away.
I am watching out for signs of toxicity now that I am starting the Flower Fuel (1-34-32) again. I didn’t see any signs when I checked on them this morning though.

I’ve heard more and more people talking about these. And Recharge. I’m going to have to read more about them.
I like using Jacks321 because it’s so easy. But damn, there’s something in my brain that just wants to keep tweaking it and leading me down a path where it won’t be so easy anymore. I remember imsickkid (and others) saying “Don’t change anything. Same from start to finish.” But when I read more about adding this or using less of that, I literally imagine Emperor Palpatine saying, “Good! Give in to your feelings. You should do it!”

I was good on straight Jack’s 321 till about 2 weeks after flipping. They were still very healthy but turning lighter green with dark leaf veins. Kept getting lighter. That’s when I changed it up a bit and added mkp. They been happy since so far. I’m feeding full amount every two days now since flower. I think the tribus is a great help in getting them to eat everything I’m feeding them and being happy about. The silica is making nice strong stems for one thing. Im going to add a net just to help the spread. The stems are strong enough I don’t need the extra support though.

I make 10 gal of Jacks321 solutions in advance. I dissolve 36g of Part A, 24g of Part B, and 11g of Epson Salts separately in 2 liter soda bottles.
2 liters is roughly 67 fluid oz. My soda bottles have lines to show where 60 fl oz is. (I filled a bottle up with water, measured out 7 fluid oz, and drew a line.) Today I filled them up too much. Lol. Little stoned this afternoon. Anyway, I keep the bottles in the dark, under a counter. Part A is darker, so that one is obvious. I put the Epson Salt in the Barqs bottle, because it’s different from the Jacks.
The Solo cup is marked to measure a 1 gal dose (and 1.5 and 2 gal dose). On feeding days I just shake up the bottles and measure out how much I need from each bottle, mix it in with the right amount of water, and start pouring.
I did the same thing last summer, but with higher concentrations and in gal milk jugs. My outdoor plants were drinking 5 gal of water every other day for maybe 3 mos. I tried different techniques. This was simple and fast. And I only have to measure out the nutes every other week or so.
Here they are today.
Tomorrow will be 21 days since they were flipped.

yoooooo!!! check out the leaf pictures of from 12/05. Did yours look like that?
I got tired of shaking gal jugs so here’s my mixing tools now lol
I’m mixing 6 gals at a time which is one feeding for the full tent. After feeding I mix another bucket and drop in a air stone till I need it 2 days later. Changing to an auto water/feed system hopefully real soon. dead leaves are because I slacked 1 day of watering

Your plants always look great! That’s a really good mixing idea for that volume of feeding.

Yep they looked exactly like that. Prior they were a nice darker green like they are now. Only feeding change I made was a tad less epsom 1gr per gal and reduced part A to 1.8grams and added 2 grams of mkp per gal

I did the same thing for a bit. I was making an aero cloner out of an 18 gal tub, and decided to turn it into a rez instead of a cloner. Since were moving in a few months, dont need to be taking clones. Heres what I got for now.
Green 18 gal tub is rez, i pump my days worth of drinks into the 5 gal and pump from there, to each plant via hose. Works well for me. I mix nutes about every 3 days. Instead of daily.

I’m glad you said that. 12/05 was about the time I was expecting the FFOF in the soil to be depleted. My plants started showing signs of deficiencies a day or two afterwards. I started using Jacks at that point (when I flipped to 12/12) and they just took off.
I’ll keep that in mind on my next grow. As soon as my plants start with those leaves/colors, I’ll start feeding them Jacks.

I’m going to get a auto water/feeding system so I just need to keep the reservoir full lol. Check out Dripright Hydrolock. It’s the same one greengenes uses.

After trim pics.
I cut off almost every leaf that had a stem to cut.
I left a few bottom/outside fan leaves because I still want a few solar panels to be active until the growth bounces back.

The threads that I’m following (including yours) are giving me a much better idea of what to expect from an inside grow.
But I can’t wait to grow outside again.
