As far as I can tell VB is ten times as expensive as Jacks. No reason other than the “canna tax”

It works great, and hella simple.
Im trying jacks for the first time now to see how it compares. I know jacks is a lil bit more time consuming mixing, gotta use some warm water to dissolve part a, then mix um in order. Veg n bloom u just put it in the Rez n your done. Lil bit extra work but not much, Took me bout 20 minutes to mix 4 Reservoirs. but now now that's about 80 minutes a month.

yeah it does seperate poer mixing it - but i just shake the jug up and dump it in
after a few hrs it completely dissolves in my lil 2 gal bucket
i recommend using at no more than 1- 1.2 ec in veg and i add gypsum at about 100ppm ~.9g/ga
when transplanting and once a week in veg, but prolly not necessary
i really couldnt stand the stuff before i got my new ec and ph pens
works really damn decent if you dont feed alot - its K-Ca-Mg ratio is just about perfect
but in coco that i have i need the extra Ca to get the medium up to speed after a transplant.
just uppotted a few moms into 3 gals and while they are settling in , i see no signs of imbalances that i used to
it is not a cheap anything
but i was gifted 20#s of the stuff
so im using it all now that my testing pens actually work
im a closet grower , dont have no res
however if i did , id install a 300 gal pump to mix and a post-feed pump particle filter to keep drippers running smooth just cause that calcium sulfate takes a while to get into solution

Does Veg Bloom ever go bad?
I've had a 5lb pail for a while and am almost at the end of it but it doesn't seem to keep my plants in as good of health as before.
I'm recently switched to jacks 321 and the plants are really loving it.
