Review my nutrient formula please?

[sensirocker]

maybe look into some bloom blaster or equivalent for late flower.

i seemed to have missed this. Thorodee, i must disagree with you in using the beast bloomz late flower IMO. I have found that using it during week 2.5-4.5max is the best, ESPECIALLY when following with cha ching. yes, traditionally these types of flower enhancers are used a bit later to pour on the powder, but my experience has shown me that using beast bloomz during the time above will pack on the weight and girth of those buds. Now, using beast bloomz in late flower will definitley benefit your plants, but IMO, not as much when used mid flower with a 1- 2 week blast of cha ching after.

Fascinating sr


I use FF also. OF GB, BB, TB, and supplement with kelp, alfalfa, bat shit, molasses. Keeps them well fed with options if I see them needing anything in heavier dose.

I just started using Bio Nova PK 13-14 for the first time this week.

Seems to be a couple manufactures of that title - surprise! surprise!

It sure doesn't slam the PH like Tiger Bloom, in fact I had to triple my PH down just to get close to 6 where as with TB I can use it 1/2 strength and the PH is a perfect 6 - - so I just use TB twice as often. But I can't increase the dose without add PH up - until I brought the PK home.
I freaked the first time I mixed it - Normally tap water is 7.0 and 1/4 tsp PH down drops it to 6.1 ish 1/2 tsp is low 5's. With the BN, First 1/4 dropped the PH to 6.5, the second 1/4 didn't budge the PH in the gallon - I'm checking calibration , wondering if I missed getting it in the gallon - finally the tester is right and no wet spots on the counter,- so I add another 1/4 and it dropped to 6.2 They loved it but it about gave me headache

Plants seem to like 1 tsp of the Bio Nova PK 13-14 and the pH was 6.2 - the sun leaves faded noticeably quicker; kinda what I was after - self trimming Bubblegum

Just a happy tweeker (garden wise) - well ya know,,,,,,,,

Don't know if you know - I sure as hell didn't, - beware, Grow Big and Tiger Bloom have a limited shelf life. Here's a link to a current thread on that topic.

The main ingredient in sweet is molassas. Lose the attitude dude! Half the posts in this thread are you telling us not to fight on the intertubes.

Yes but sweet also has things like Vitamins, Amino Acids, Esters, etc etc, read what it contains, it may have a lot of mollasses but it's not all it has.

And im sorry if you think i have an attitude... i really dont think I did until i was told i was being rude... that kind of annoyed me, and i know i posted not to argue a lot but thats cuz he kept replying in my thread arguing with me...

Sensi, I am using pure blend original, not pure blend pro. Pure blend pro is a stand alone nute, Pure blend original is an organic additive you use with other nutes.

All the extras you seek are indeed contained within the mollasssas, the worm castings the seaweed extract and fish juice. - Bat Guano is good as is Dolomite lime and Epsom Salts - but you KNOW better huh?

Where do ya think Sweet comes from?
They buy shit - mix it up, add water and color and charge ten times retail prices - and drive new vetts

I'm thinking I may have been wrong with my initial apprasial of rude. Actually your rude and not to bright.
Which usually go together anyway.

Shine on little boy
and being rude to theodore in the other thread isn't nice either.

how's that attitude now?

 

[Burt]

Well I used unsulphured organic molasses this time around-2 teaspoons to 3 gallons and I got slimy roots. DWC setup- Is this normal?
Sure the buds did seem to get MUCH harder than in previous grows, I'm just concerned that my babies are suffering in some way from the slime-Oh well-it is the flushing period and I'll just have to play it out now

 

[ezbake]

lol i love how captain keeps coming back to my thread to argue with me, im finding it pretty funny

and by not too bright you mean i dont know every organic nutrient and what it does, then yes... i guess im not too bright in that area.

but again, i wasnt arguing with you lol... but your arguing with me, just as you have been this whole thread
my post wasnt even directed to you, i was explaining to another person, yet you have to chime in dont you? yes, you do. because for some reason, you care what other people say on the internet. me, i don't, i think you're an idiot.

and for all of you telling me i have an attitude and name calling is no way to get help, why dont you read the posts first...
- you'll see that i said "lol" twice in the post captain thinks is so rude... and i already appologized saying i wasnt clear enough and i didnt mean it to be rude.
- you'll also see that the first person to "name call" was captain when he called me a lil boy... now this isnt really name calling but he said it simply to try and offend me right?

so lets just get the facts straight before we all go saying im this rude little kid, because im not a kid at all... and im not rude...

Captain:
I would love to learn more about organic nutrients, Im sorry i dont know everything about them... I am a beginner, like you were at one time.

If you would like to point me to a place to read about it, or if you'd like to type something up i would love to read about it.

And i know that botanicare just mixes stuff up and marks it up... but I dont know how to do that stuff, thats why im looking at liquid nutes... okay?

And again... im sorry for being rude, i truly was joking when i wrote that and i didnt think anyone would think it was rude... but honestly reading it now... i think i was probably a little stoned and not thinking clearly cuz it is a little rude, SO IM SORRY. CAN U FORGIVE ME AND CAN WE END THIS STUPID STUPID ARGUMENT?

 

[CaptJamesTKirk]

I luv your hot button, but since you asked,,, okie dokie.

Don't take this wrong - but every thing you could want to know is already here and easily accesable.

Top right side of the page it says search.
click on it a magic box drops down.
Beware - this box has power to those who use it well.


really cool tool. and the inqusitive ones secret weapon. It's how I learned about Sweet - while I was reading about Molassas.

Which is rich in Iron and Mag, and, and, and, and - -bubba - why would I lie to you?

k


after you get done reading bout that, do

Seaweed Extract
Alfalfa
Bat Guano
Dolomite lime
Epsom Salt
Micro organisms

That will get ya a LOT of info -

then comeon back with any questions.

Or before if there is something you can't find.

Reasonable?







dammmmm might have to reconcider that initial aprasial.
Concider yourself forgiven.

Carry on

ps-

The problem with your approach to growing - as I see it is - you read and believe too much advertising. Somebody with a degree in english and marketing and possibley psyc, wrote it to appeal to growers; and they are pretty good. - yeah it may work for some - hell it may work for a lot of people - that dosen't change the fact - the name of the game is feed the plant with what it needs and pretty close to when. I take a lot of pride in having the best fookin weed at the party bar none, and it's a fact.

If somebody paid for you to see it - they have an agenda - they want your vote, your money or your time. Just keep that in that back of your mind.

I bet that $20 bottle of sweet has an actual cost of less than $1 - counting the packageing.

and they spend two to three times that in advertising.



and pocket about $10


Nice game.


now - go search.

 

[ezbake]

lol ok, i will

thank you

edit: im a little overwhelmed and afraid i may do it wrong... its almost worth the $20 a bottle to me because then i know what im putting in, and i have the NPK and stuff... i dont know... growing pot is just one the things im willing to put money in to make sure i do it right, if i knew more... but i plan on doing this in a month or two im not sure i can learn what i need to know by then

 

[Dan42nepa]

You can do it... I am on my first grow and my plants are doing great. I am in my 3rd week of flower after veging for 8 weeks. I read almost every post on this forum as well as on the organic forum and its fairly easy to weed out the chaff from the wheat. My first roadblock was cloning and i ended up 100 percent success with 18 cuttings from reading everything about cloning on here. There are other forums but this one has the most knowelgeable growers. The organic soil forum is great.

 

[Guest]

You did it Dan because you listened to experienced people here without becoming confrontational and you keep an open mind.Don't think that just anyone can be successful at this and when I say successful I mean growing top of the line ganj,not just finishing some plants.

 

[CaptJamesTKirk]

I dunno Skel,,, ya gotta crawl before ya walk. I think ya have to have enough confidence to know you can probably get them to harvest to be a grower and sometimes ya kill a few getting to the first stop

ez, you have some pretty dam good help at your fingertips.

give a man a fish he eats for a day, Teach him to fish,,,,,,,

I spent 25 years killing every plant I touched, I still kill a few - or they commit suicide - I haven't figgured that out yet.

I'm going to kill this one in a week or so.

 

[Dan42nepa]

you guys both helped me at times during my grow and i appreciate both your help. cap was a big help explaining the potting options. Your right.. Even though my plants are thriving, disaster can happen at any time.. my next concern is harvest. I would be heartbroken if my buds become moldy because i screwed something up after 4 months work.

 

[Guest]

You really only have a couple options when it comes to harvest,and it depends on how fast you want it to dry.You can either hydrate the plant several hours or the night before harvest,this will ensure a much longer smoother drying period but may not be the ticket if you're concerned with mold.When you harvest with really dry soil the plant is going to dry a lot faster,its not going to really affect potency either way but a slower drying period usually results in a smoother smoke

 

[ezbake]

I think i've decided to just use

Pure Blend Pro Grow
Pure Blend Pro Bloom Soil
Liquid Karma
Clearex

I may get some Cal-Mag if i notice any deficiencies but im going to try just using those for now Taking some of captain's advice
