Kudos for pushing the limits. Im actually about to pull a trigger on fluvah4 myself as they have a sale and i need like 5 gals per cycle. Case studies seem legit.
Ive been using
floralicious plus with noticable smell improvement.
I think less is more here so i will be dropping flora and just running fluvah.
There is one other product that im considering Rock Resinator. Its about 50% cheaper vs fluvah.
Please keep us posted i wont have mine for another 2 weeks so any results you see would def help!
What dosage are u going for?
Yeah I believe the only way to be able to confidently make a judgment on a product is to both read the labels and white papers and then of course try it. Many times companies change thier labeling to get by regulations like ones here in California banning certain plant hormones. But I would really like to get an official or someone with authority on this subject to confirm or rebuke, is the contains/ingredients list on the bottle all that is used in a product. What do they mean by plant extracts? What could possibly be in "proprietary" ingredients? Etc etc.
I only bought enough for 2 runs and I'm doing 2ml weeks 1-3 then 3ml per for the rest.
I Wana say that Floralicous plus with its various hydrolysates still may add another layer of benefits concerning terps and flavor.
Not Many strains actually translate thier smell into thier flavor. Genetics is likely more responsible for that. So if you are running a strain that thus far hasn't.produced flavor I don't think any product is.going to bring it out.

Flavuh info
Supports the plant growth processes of nutrient assimilation & phytochemical production
Ventana Plant Science (VPS) FlaVUH is the combination of distinct, targeted technologies, with the name being derived from Volatile Unsaturated Hydrocarbons--also known as
terpenes. The foundation of the product is a proprietary negatively-charged polymerized amino acid that adsorbs cationic (positively-charged) minerals in the soil and in the solution and prevents their interaction with anionic (negatively-charged) minerals—which prevents their precipitation.
This increases the overall nutrient availability and uptake rate by plants. VPS FlaVUH was developed to improve terpene production while complementing any commercial base nutrient line. VPS FlaVUH also contains specific amino acids that improve soil conditions for root growth and increase yields.
Derived from:
Soy protein hydrolysate

Ventana Plant Science takes no shortcuts to optimize plant health.
Chelated, fully soluble nutrients with proprietary polyaspartate polymer amino acids. What does it all mean? It means the formulation chemists have designed a completely proprietary amino acid that no other nutrient company has ever brought to market. A truly revolutionary product derived from the shells of mollusks, inspired by nature, and fully bio-degradable.
The product is the main ingredient in the bottle VPS FlaVUH 4-0-4, a proprietary negatively-charged polymerized amino acid that adsorbs cationic (positively-charged) minerals in the soil and in the solution, and prevents their interaction with anionic (negatively-charged) minerals—which prevents their precipitation. This increases the overall nutrient availability to the plant, which increases the opportunity for yields and oil production.
Would just reading the npk guaranteed Analysis be the best way to understand what's in these products ? Or does if fall short of the whole story? Lmk.
