Because of ILGM posts, I recently bought Jack’s Nutrients, is this how they are mixed? I copied the following image from another ILGM post about Jacks.
The bag doesn’t have instructions on how often to add this to your watering schedule with soil. I have four 5-gallon fabric pots with cactus soil in it, I water them with 1 gallon of water total per day (so 1/4 gallon per plant per day). Do I mix up Jacks every time I pour a gallon of water every day?
By this schedule, it shows to add it, by itself, for a couple of weeks when you switch to flower. If you are already in flower, I would just keep the regular schedule going…
jacks nutrients dot com. click the hamburger in upper right and click on grow schedules. read this page. then a couple entries down is the schedule for jacks 321 including when to use bloom.
Doh! I have 3 bags of Jacks and still don’t have what I need. Guess I need that 12-4-16 and don’t need the 10-30-20 Bloom that I just bought at all. Then will have to get the 7-15-30. Okay, will try it.
Why isn’t the Part A and Part B on the feeding schedule?
That is just the total lineup. If you have just A&B with the bloom, you will be ok. Many grow only use the A&B start to finish, nothing else, except maybe a microbial bacteria. If you follow just the veg, bud set and flower part of the schedule, then part A&B and the bloom are all you need.
Cool. Gonna buy it all anyways. I’ve never been good at nutrients. I literally used to just use Miracle Grow 15-30-15 from begining to end and it basically worked out okay, but let’s do better I guess.
You can get through the whole grow with just A, B and epsom, adding more or less of A&B if deficiencies or toxicity comes up. I have an auto that doesn’t like much nitrogen, so I changed the feed ratio to 4g of A, 2g of B, and 1g epsom per gallon.
Their schedule shows to use the bloom when you switch to flower, without A&B. How far in flower are you? Got a pic or two?if you are already actually fully flowering, I would skip it and stay with the A&B.
Ya, I have not used any Jacks Nutrients yet (or ever). I had leftover Fox Farm stuff from my last grow, but do have the Jacks Part A and Part B, 5 pounds of epsom salt, and their Bloom 10-30-20 in the house now. I am 4 weeks into the flowering stage if you count the day that the light cycle was changed to 12/12.
So should I just start the A&B and not do the other two they have? I’m probably going to buy the other two anyway since it seems like the ILGM people say it’s the best but I haven’t really seen which ones they prefer to use.
