I was just a bit confused on how i dilute the shooitng powder

direction say 1 sachet/25 gal, so i have to dilute it in 25 gal, or how do i go about it, i could take my instinct but would hate to have any stress this harvest.

65 grams per bag for 25 gallons. divide 65 by 25 = 2.6 grams per gallon. correct me if i'm wrong.

Keepz I hear good things about Atami BCuzz Bloombastic, and it is meant to be used almost identically to shooting powder. I have not used either but they are about in the same ballpark price wise and seem to garner the same claims from online growers. Good Luck!

Yes ...this is correct...but make sure to use less base nutes...total PPM should be at most 1000 - 1200...Peace and good luck

No need to be confused.

When using Top shooter or SHooting powder. You use a base EC of 1.2 or what ever your equivalent PPM would be. This is to include you background ec.

So for example.

Water out of tap fill a 100 lt barrel.
Check ec - reads 0.4 in my case...

Add A&B to get ec to 1.2.

Then add budxl if using. Then add Shooting powder as the label...

2.6g per gallon for your first week then 5.2g per gallon for your second and third weeks. If indeed you manage to go a full 3 week with it. I normally start flushing after 10 days use. This is enough.

Well...some strains can take a beating and love it...and some do not like it at all...so my posting is simply a safe range of PPM no matter what strain is involved. But you really don't need to go over 1000 ....the plants don't need it and it's kind of a waste of nutes.....Peace and good luck

I normally run the ff pk boosters but really didn't this run, I was looking at the shooting powders from eathir h&g or moab.. I'm not sure on the doseing lvl of the moab but from herbis post I know the h&g shooting powder application per feeding but I'm not sure of the amount of feedings acceptable for coco/perlite mix, also can the shooting powder be used standalone ie giveing it to them on a none base nute day... az

"1/2 teaspoon/gal when it is 1 sachet per 25 gals and 1teaspoon/gal when it is 2."

This is coming from a rep at House and Garden. Much easier to mix 1/2 a tsp/gal than the whole packet.

Just make sure to cut your base nutes by half of your normal dosage.. ~ODB~
