bluebong,
Thanks for defending me with urgr8est a while back although not necessary. He is cool and he knows I have taught him some stuff and he respects me as I do him. On the fertilizing at half strength and cutting the NPK in half I refer to Logan Edwards' book Grow Great Marijuana:
As a concentration the numbers are the percentage by weight, of the nutrients available to your plants. For example, in a one-gram sample of Mega Gro 15-30-15, 15% (or 0.15 gram) would be available as nitrogen 30% (0.30 gram) as phosphorus, and 15% (0.15 gram) as potassium. The missing 40% balance contains the remaining macro-and micro-nutrients, but it is mostly inert filler that does not affect plant growth.
A fertilizer labeled 7-15-7 would be about half the strength of a nutrient solution labeled 15-30-15. You could apply half as much of the stronger fertilizer to get the same nutrient strength as the weaker 7-15-7 fertilizer but, you could more easily burn your plants without properly diluting the stronger fertilizer.
So in this case, it seems that Urgr8est is correct and VTEC is wrong. Please forgive me oh god of ganja. I bow down to you oh lord of fluoros. And I kiss your feet my king of the three month veggers.
