Now that there a week in2 bloom its time 2 drop startboost & add peakboost
P boost drops your PH like a mofo so just watch for that. I have to use RO water where I'm at because there to much metal in my water. The peak boost makes my water drop into the 4.0-4.8 range depending on how much I use and where I'm at in the cycle with the other additives.
Are yoy using the suggested base on the days your using aptus? Also how many days per week are you watering with aptus versus just water or other feeds?
Sorry for the random questions. Just somewhat skimmed over the thread I havnt got a chance to go back over and read what you have been doing... I'm a lazy skunk

Also ..... i only foliar the Facilitor in veg but when I do I also have been mixing it with ic3 oil to help as a pest preventative. Helps with flyers if any come in the soil from the bank ass hydro stores. Iv been using 15 ml of ic3 with 5 ml of Facilitor once a week.... not on days where I water Facilitor. Not sure if that would make a difference or not but just playing it safe.
I also use 2x the Facilitor for the first two weeks of bloom to help beast the plants. Doesn't quite stop the stretch as much as they claim it does. Last round I even used 3x the Facilitor. Shit was wild

Going into weeks 3/4 with peakboost, be ready for the ph of your solution to plummet. I add in my canna a/b and then ph to 7.8-8.0 and then add peakboost. No kidding it will drop your ph from 6 to 3.5 at full dosage. Just a heads up.

What is the biggest difference between aptus an the other flower additives that your were using in the past?

Goo you water every day?..

We are in 50/50 perlite/coco and only run Aptus 2x a week. We did 1 time only per week and didn't quite get the results we were looking for. 2-3x seems to be the sweet spot with teas + Seagreen on Sunday.

Careful with the high dosages of peak & finale towards the end burning you up or locking you out. We've had some issues running the schedule including the massboost. Depending on your base you might get locked up week 6 of bloom from all the camg plus other nutrients antagonizing each other. Just my 2c
