That is much lower on nitrogen than your other versions. Are you planning to use it from sprout or switch to ver 5 when you get into flower ? Our current recipe is below, sans the silica. Were adding 4 mil of Stout MSA per gallon per the label. Not sure how much available silica it equate...

No rush ! Its RO water. About 10 ppm. Our well water is extremely hard, so we strip it with an RO system. With the low alkalinity after the RO system we were shooting for 10 to 15 percent ammoniacal.

Hello Farside ! Saw your revised numbers earlier for V5, what's your ratio of nitrate/ammoniacal ? We've had pretty good luck running the RO version you provided last year, with a few tweaks. We now run all SIPs and have switched to MSA for the silica source and created a Texas Special K to...

Thanks RD ! Past runs have been Promix, except for the last 2 which have been Far sides FauxMix. Traditional top watering to runoff worked great ! The last run, with SIP, not so good ! Guess I can alter up the watering cycle some and at the same time go back to the commercial Promix. Won't...

Thanks AC ! I do feel I may have kept the res too full early on. After the initial saturation, I kept the res mostly full topping off every day or every other day. I went straight from Peat pod to the 5 gal and only top watered a smidge at the transplant. Sounds like it would be better to...

Thought I would follow up on @AspenCultivator notes and show a similar issue when running my first SIP. I’m a longtime grower but have very limited time to post a journal. I do greatly appreciate all the knowledge and information I have gained from members and this site ! I’m Peat/Perlite...

Thanks Farside ! Hope this gets them back on track. Thinking in the near future of trying a SIP and using the interior float switches and a supply reservoir of FN RO nutes.

Glad to hear you are doing better Farside ! When you supplemented with FN nutes, did you top feed or did you add them directly to the reservoir ?

Hello Shed ! Not sure if you saw, but ProMix posted a whole collection of tutorials and info sections on their web site on Sept 15, 2022. Looks like they are all dated that same day ? Many go over what is discussed in great detail here !

We received the supplies to make our first batch of RO FN Fertilizer. Plan to make up a quart starter batch just to get the hang of it. Will let you know how it goes. Might even do my first journal to show how they do. Gotta wrap up this grow first.
