Running 8-9 weeks total, I figured it was probably late for the big bud.
I did the shooting powder at 1 satchet per 25 gal. Total ppm at about 1100, they were at 1500 before I did the shooting powder.
Also at 166 watts/sq ft for the last half of flower vs 66 watts/sq ft for first half. Should be interesting to see what happens there. Kind of messes up the controlled test on the shooting powder though.
I plan to skip the shooting powder next time and do the MOAB instead since it is quite a bit cheaper.
Also been thinking about doing the shooting powder week 6, then moab week 7, since I've already changed things so much by adding the extra light in.[/QUOTE/]
Wow 166 watts sq/ft..
I run 2k over a 3x6..
You run 3k over a 3x6...Likey likey

So wait, do you run shooting powder with nothing else in the REZ? I am just confused cause i am running aquaflake for the first time and the nutrient calculator says its added into everything.
Just curious as i was planning on using the shooting powder as well, but it would be sad if i broke everything hahaha
Used the shooting powder for a week, drained and refilled res, put in a light dose of nutes and a light dose of moab. We will see how it turns out.
The shooting powder seems to have increased bud size a bit. I have a strain that produces bananas around week 8, it did it week 7 this time with the shooting powder.
What does p/k actually do? Adds size? Density?
Hammerhead, overdrive, shooting powder, moab, big bud are all p/k boosters mainly right?
Any real difference in them besides the ratio?
Why run big bud or hammerhead at the start of bloom instead of just a lower dose of moab?

I'm running Aquaflakes, multizen, and for now root excellurator and getting ready to move to 12/12 on some clones. I don't want to spring for a recirc pump for my res right now so shooting powder is out. Is there something I can use, like Hammerhead, instead?
I went with Kool Bloom since I had some on my shelf and it's just the first week of flower. I guess I'll see how it goes. I might get a recirc pump for my res anyway but the shooting powder is expensive. Is it worth it or not?
MOAB and shooting powder are very similar...High phosphorus, high potassium boosters...However, I wouldn't mix them....The difference between the two is that Shooting powder shouldn't be used to initiate flowering whereas MOAB can be used in the first week of flower to initiate budding. MOAB is has a much higher P/K ratio which could lead to bigger yields than shooting powder but a decrease in taste when compared.DWC with house and garden aquaflakes.
I'm at week 6 flower.
Just added shooting powder.
I've got big bud and moab, haven't used them.
1. Should I add either on top of the shooting powder?
2. Moab and shooting powder are very similar right?
3. I've been considering using humboldt gravity to increase density, is this needed or does something I have already cover it?
Thanks!
im confused by your post.... what does 'i dont want to spring for a recirc pump for my res right now' have anything to do with shooting powder?
did you bring that up cuz you are afraid of it clogging?
if not, what exactly are you talking about? no recirculating pump? how exactly do you water your plants? then again, why are you using the 'recirculating' line aka aqua flakes, if you dont have a recirculating system? *just a thought, not a flame*
either way, if you are confused, you dont need a recirc pump for anything....just mix up your nutes as usual.
shooting powder is no different.
it will completely dissolve as well. It looks like orange coke/heroin.... i swear the damn chemisty @ H & G are like some ex- drug addicts or junkies...lol... all their shit looks like something i've seen in my life...or maybe thas me? Hell even that Bud- XL almost looks like some "texas syrup"
anyway sorry for the off topic lol..but yea long story short that shooting powder dissolves fully
it seems to be almost carbonated or something....
