I agree with you on the ph @RookieReefer
And i dint flush or like ti flush unless i have a issue either
And with the ff trio i found the same issue keeping ph adjusted with ffof soil
I plan on doing a three way grow using nfg ff trio and remo nutrients planning on a January start time for that
Unfortunately with mom being sick i may need to leave at anytime so i cant start until at least then
Thanks @FreakyDeekie yeah the have a spicy fruity smell
With me flowering early they didnt get over 24 inches
Woohoo
Have 1 more gl in a scrog tent and two gl
in with a bb fem and two bb autos in other tent with weeks to go for them hoping to have them harvested by middle December

@Countryboyjvd1971 Please know I have you and your family in my prayers 
Secondly, I have eliminated FF off my list for my spring Grow after seeing so many having ph issues. I have to keep things simple and economic

I appreciate the kind words a Prayers 
And to be clear im not saying ff products are bad just that you need to pay a little more attention to them
My biggest issue with the ff line up is the salt build up that the brand tends to create
And its a known issue since they require min of 3 flushes during a 12 week grow cycle and most of my grows will go longer then 12 weeks so require a 4th flush
As stated i not a fan of flushing unless its needed and if you can find a better product that doesnāt require it im all for that
So far ive been extremely happy with the nectar line
And so have the plants
I did run into a ph issue but that was from lack of proper attention with my situation so im not stressing it i did correct it now
Did you order a sample for your self its worth the small investment imo

It seems that many here have great results with FF so I have paid close attention to it on the forums. The more I read it just doesnāt seem the right one for me. Iāve not ordered anything yet as Iām (1) still researching nutrients, (2) undecided whether to go AutoFem or feminized photo, (3) evaluating my outdoor grow area (possible light contamination from house lights), & hoping for a little extra $$ at the end of the year.
Above all else I just need to keep my growing as physically easy and economical as possible

I used FFOF for my first grow and had thought that I would recharge and reuse it but I am rethinking that now. I did have issues with pH and nute lockout there which ruined one of my plants, wasnāt using Fox Farms nutes though. Not sure what soil I am going to try next. I donāt want the guys at my local greenhouse eyeballing me too closely if I start asking about specialized soils, especially in December or January

I think Iām going to start in black gold then maybe transplant into happy frog but Iām in the same boat @FreakyDeekie. Havenāt made a final decision yet.

I already bought Pro Mix Ultimate at the end of season sales here (@ cost thanks to a friend) and may or may not need much in nutrients. However, I think thereās going to have to be some adjustments during the Grow & I should have something on hand if necessary.

Sounds like a good reason to bring our fish tank back down from the attic. Itās been out of service since my daughters goldfish died after two years.
āHey honey, lets get another fishāā¦
Love it.

Here is what I use: Some of you have asked me for my recipe well here ya go.
I started out with an off brand of Pro Mix same thing but different brand.
I added 3 1/2 galās of Mix to a 5 gal cloth pot. Then add one gal of worm castings, Guano Grow Crazer Guaranted Analyis For Vegg Phase 5-1-1 one half gal, than added Indonesian Bat Guanno one tsp per gal of soil or 5 tspās
Bone Meal I added 5 tspās and mixed them real good togetter.
WATERING
SEEDLINGS
Super Tea Mix
0.5 - 0.5 - 0.10 mix 2 - 3 tspās per galof water " WILL NOT BURN SEEDLINGS "
VEGG
Every watering durning vegg i would add one cap full of Fish Fertilizer 5-1-1 then i added Veganic Special Sauce a Microbial Tea and Inoculant 0.75 - 2.15 - 2.10 mix 1 tsp per gal of water every watering
Durning their growth would spray them with a:
" SUPER PLANT HORMORN SPRAY "
I would also add two cap fulls of " HYDROGEN PEROXIDE" TO EACH WATERING.
FLOWER
I added Bone Meal to the top soil I added one to two tspās per plant. once a week.
When i watered i added one tsp of Molasses and one tsp of Honey per gal of water twice a week for the entier flower period.

Dude thatās way deeper than I am going at the moment - but I can see the gaps in what Iām using now (beyond molasses, hydrogen peroxide and epsom salt). Iām not sure I have enough shelf space to store more goodies for the girlsā¦
Always learning. Thanks for posting.

Fyi i buy the same brand of molassas at the ācounty storeā down the road for 1/4 of the price it sells for at the grow shop. And i do add epsom salt to my supersoil mix, BUT ISE CAUTION! Too much salt can be bad for them and will cause nute lock out. Iāve never used peroxide on the cannabis but i have heard of it threw some local organic berry and darf fruit tree growers. Again, i would āthinkā it could also do hatm if too much is used especially if u are using living soil/supersoil bc some of the bacteria and microbes thet are part of the soil would be killed off

The Epsom salt was new on me, I had read about the benefits of the Hydrogen Peroxide - I just got past a fungus gnat issue using yellow sticky pads, potato slices and a good dusting with DE. Last night I added two cap fulls of H2O2 to their watering to kill any larvae that may remain - of course I realize I just probably killed off most of the microbes Iāve been adding with Photosynthesis Plus and/or Mammoth Pā¦
