A little late two weeks from the end lol but sure. Once I harvest these ones mate I’m gonna put a few days into installing the controller and moving a few things around to nail this environment, and I’m also going to build a a fixed scrog net with wooden frame about 10 inches from pot and make it a lot bigger so can scrog for days lol just need to get my head round setting this controller, I can just about use my phone

Don't do either, all bollox imho.
You might find your EC rises with Flush. If it rises a lot... Like 0.2-0.5 do a water change :)
I agree mate.

Nanook mate hope you don’t mind me picking your brain a little. I am just trying to plan ahead on my next run. I ended up binning the fat banana after a terrible start trying to figure out nute strength using the new nutes lol (burned the life outta them) So I am just going to start fresh again in the new improved groom once I harvest these ones. What I was wondering was I am using the ionic grow and bloom and I was wondering what your EC was at at each stage of the grow. I was thinking since my background ec is 0.1

Seedling stage - 0.2
Veg - 0.5
Bloom - 0.6 and then lower as they go to mid late bloom

Recommend dosage of ionic grow is 7ml/l and I added it at 0.785ml/l which is 1/8 strength and that took my ec to 0.5, the ionic grow seems crazy strong?

I know dude was gutted added ionic grow and plant magic root stim both at 1/8 strength and my ec was 0.5, should have diluted it 1/16 strength maybe even less. Another lesson learnt lol ok just barely gonna use any nutes whatsoever

I know mate I think from what I have been reading as well is hydro makes the nutes super strong. Most strains loves very little nutes in hydro. But you said it mate your always learning from your mistakes, I just make more than the normal person fs lol I’m thinking ordering more strawberry banana the exact same strain cause I know what way they grow and how they like their nutes now. And with the controller installed and new scrog and set up I wanna do the strawberry banana justice lol

Running the same strain sounds like a very good idea

Completely ignore recommend doses on any nutrient bottle and go by EC only. Ionic used to have a nice online calculator bit it's been broken a while now, just add small amounts till you get it to where you want it. Seedlings I am usually 0.1 above background. First real leaves 0.2... then upto 0.4-0.8 depending how they are feeding but you can't go wrong underfeeding and topping up daily :)

This makes me very happy WD. Do not panic about the settings on the unit its dead simple most smart phones these days are more complicated to use (except iphones) lol there are alot of people on the forum that use them and we will all be on hand to help you out. just remember to wire in extensions as opposed to the components. Goos call though it will not let you down fella.
