What is everyone doing for a routine after fruit set?

I just started using 0-0-25 from growth products @ 8ml per liter.

Before I was using 0-0-50 at 1/8 tsp per gallon.

occasionally I will add jacks tomato fertilizer and voodoo juice, b vitamins.

looking for what works for the other growers.

I haven't found anything that works really well yet Austin. After pollination my plants slowly start to go down hill. With these Jan sets, I am trying something different. I threw away the cannabis flowering formula and am using my new formula (mixed from different companies) which is back to a vegetation ratio with the boost of potash. The ratio works out to 8-8-21 with calcium at 19. I was noticing a bit of magnesium deficiency so i tossed some epsom salt into the reservoir. I have also started nightly foliar spray, with a rotation of kelp and micro-nutrients. So far the foliage is looking better but I still need to make much improvement post pollination. It is easy for me to get the sets..hard to get the sets to grow big.

I've been considering mixing wood ash in with the 0-0-25 to counteract the ph fluctuations.

I use Ph Up and Ph Down all the time. Everything I add to the tanks or spray foliar is Ph set. I also doing a Ph and EC check every night on the reservoir tanks. I don't think I will ever go back to soil inside...too hard to know what is happening underground.

do you do compost tea at all indoors?

I have thought about it but have never done it. It seems too much mess to brew inside. I know several of the grow stores around here have vortex brewers and sell fresh compost tea by the gallon. Maybe this is something I should try..I know Dan S is firm proponent of biologicals.

What are your PH and potassium levels. To really answer your question someone smarter than I needs to look at your soil test results or we would be guessing. Wood ash raises your PH so you will need to add some and retest.

good thing you said that, I was mistakenly thinking the ash would lower the ph... not sure why I was confused about that
