Gravity 1st timer/its kinda weird looking.

I added Gravity 4 days ago,raised hps,cut nutesand temps are perfect
still some thing aint looking normal I just cant figure what.Has anyone ever
encountered early finishing using this product,or is everything just kicked up
a notch as far as growth rate and this is normal.All vertical growth has stopped,I think I read some where to expect that though and feeding
has slowed .Im in a DWC and it definately whitened up the roots.
Ill sleep easy if someone can assure me all this is perfectly normal.

Did you cut the recommended dosage in half? Gravity is very potent, I've burned crops from using it at the recommended doasges.

11/2 mls per gal,some larger fans are showing very slight
copperrish patches on the margins like youd see in burn victims but
it does seem healthy ,to be honest with you my grows tend to
be a little dry on top anyway so this could be normal,how fast will this fry
the leaves and should I flush it ..?

About another 2 or 3 days and you should see if its burning them. Use just straight water for a week or so. Don't over water.

I hope your plants are healthy. I used gravity and it burned the shit out of mine at alittle over half strenth. I should of used it 2 weeks before the end instead of 3 weeks like it says. It helped alittle to harden buds but not that great of results. We will try again soon. Hard to tell on just one run.

the woods as far as frying my plant only burned
a couple of older fans but the buds seem to be
expanding OK.im going to flush tommorrow or
maybe give it a full weeks worth at this point

You won't really know if it was a complete success until after you harvest and dry the buds. Gravity isn't really a product you can "see" doing it's thing. It only serves to harden the flowers.

My best friend used it for a few runs, and then took it out of his feeding regime. The complaints he had were lack of taste and smell when using the gravity vs. no gravity. It definitely makes the buds harder, thus a slightly larger yield per bud, but it didn't make for a larger harvest.

Be very wary of Gravity and Bushmaster. I have heard of people using single drops of either and achieving the desired results.

Defensive much? That wasn't intended as a slam or anything. I was sharing my personal experience with gravity. You mentioned it was your first time, I explained how it worked. Are you the only one reading your thread?

I didn't think you were actually watching anything grow, I don't know why you would be inclined to say that except to be a sarcastic ass.

You assume it's a complete success now, yet you haven't reached a point where you can determine it was successful or not. That's all I was pointing out. If you knew that, than I'm sorry to be redundant in mentioning it, but some people feel that if you add something to a plant you should see a difference. Gravity isn't one of em'.

I'm sure your buds look nice, dude, I don't recall saying they weren't.

Maybe you thought I was "that guy" but you have me mistaken. I'll leave you and your future threads alone.

any first hand experience with this you shoulnt comment.

Yes, you have extrapolated the information flawlessly. That is precisely what I intended to subliminally convey to you. If someone else had a less than desirable experience with it, then you shouldn't use it at all. WTF??

I don't remember saying not to use anything, only the observations that went with using the product.

Read my posts again without the stick up your ass, or ignore them. I don't care either way, but don't sit behind your monitor and think that you can just put words into people's mouths because you think there is some other motive.

Iry out

Okay that's enough of that.

Gravity is potent as so many of you pointed out. I've killed a crop with it at rec dosage myself, lol. It is a good product in that it works as described; however, IMVHO you have to be very restrained in its application until you have a sense for how your particular strain, in your particular grow conditions, can handle it.
