    It's a local, well known brand where I'm from.

    1 tblspn to 7.5 litres water upped the ec by ~0.4.

    I could get Brer Rabbit BSM to compare.

    Lol . Your feeding the microbes carbohydrates and essential minerals is what your doing . Feed micrbes = healthier plants . Better taste and quality .

    Once that plant is almost ready for flush . Its uptake of water and nutrients basically goes to a standstill usually 7th week of flower for a 9 week strain give or take . 3 x a day during flush seems insane but do what you think is best .

    Well mate I dont think as I dont know, am still just following orders here, trying to gather more knowledge every grow.

    So you saying plant will stop nute uptake at the last 2 weeks of flower? could you link me perhaps with the science behind it? No problem drop the feed to x2 instead of x3 as said.. but how does that come along with "treat coco as if its hydro"? not sayin you said that, but I heard that too many times on and off line.

    I know our plant needs less after peak flower, but you're saying it goes standstill. so trying to get my mind straight about what you're telling me brother.

    Correct me if im wrong, but if uptake stalls, then any nutrients added to the watering will just go to waste or worst - burn the plant?

    Regarding this, am i really feeding microbes in coco? could you explain to me or link with science to what's happening when adding this or that to coco vs. soil? I mean for molasses all I read about is soil use.. I really had to dig out info for coco use..
    Thanks for all the help trex, much appreciated

    Ot doesnt stop entirely thr uptske . It just slows down considerably . Thats your Q shes almost ready for harvest . It takes alot of experience to get that feel . But youll eventually get it .

    You see it more on dwc and coco the uptake slowing down . Soil stays wet for days but still noticeable .

    Soil and coco arent all that different tbh . Coco, Its more of a hybrid of the two .

    Read Teaming with microbes and teaming with nutrients . It will give you an indepht knowledge of plant science .

    Depends on pot size and strain

    Usually a 20L pot once a day .
    6 -12L pots 2x a day .
    As long as the medium stays moist your fine . If you find the medium gets too dry do twice daily . Ive never had a need for three ever .not even in a 6L pot .

    I grew a huge Blue Dream auto . 9-10oz all she neexed was 1.5L twice daily .
