Hiya guys,

Just wondered what organic nutrients line you growers currently prefer....... without causing a fight ?!!

Biobizz, plant manic, and growth technology are all cheap here.

Or..... could I just add, say 1/3 perlite, seaweed meal, bioheard cultures, and azomite to Plagron Royalmix, and just water (baring a PK boost near the end)?


Cheers, and happy growing !!

Whats the best for finishing flower stages for bud size and density? I'm in week 2 of flower and need to figure out my final nutes before a flush.

Just plain old water - flushing agents are money grabbers =- a 2 week flush ! for bud density you need to feed extra P & K in weeks 3-6

Though I don't agree with chemical stripping of the soil, water alone will not effectively flush all all excess nutes from the soil nor will it break up certain types of nutrient locks. A flushing agent is required for these. I recommend Fox Farm Sledge Hammer. It's inexpensive and uses saponin, a natural yucca extract, and a small bottle goes a long way.

I won emerald cup 2 years ago for highest terpenes using microbial called Soil Balance pro! Absolutely Max's out frost and nose of your flowers. I've been just running Cann Ag A and B which is super inexpensive as well with yucca, cal mag, silica and kelp

Have to ask what certain types of lockouts water alone won’t clear the roots of?

Imo with organic ferts flushing isn’t really required. But that’s me.

I feed mine straight water the last two weeks or so to use up the remaining ferts in the soil that I’ve paid for. Otherwise you’re just throwing money away.

If you want to flush with an agent then feel free. I just don’t see the point of dumping dollar after dollar into the soil.

have use it once - do you "vortex" your mix ? I just bubbled it for 15 minutes before use. Up to now only Mammonth the product now soil balance. was going to get Mammoth but changed - now have some Massive Bloom which has triacontanoil (this is brewed alfal (misspelled). There has been some talk about PGR (plant growth regulators) that are bad for you and triacontaoil is the natural one - seen side by sides impressed with results, Three was a post some time ago on triacontanoil" thoughts ??

Pretty hefty price tag for soil balance at $1.00 per gram. This would cost me more than what i pay for nutrients for the whole flower stage. What rates do you use and how often?
The free sample is not an option because there is no grow stores around here to ship it to.

Generally

weeks 1-2 are early flower
weeks 3-4 are middle flower
weeks 5-6 is later flower
Late flower times will vary due to strain''s - example I gave is for a 8 week flower (week 7-8 flush)
