I had a fill pump to water the plants and a drain pump to drain them after the fill cycle. I had an airstone to stir the tank but didn't feel the need to buy a pump to keep the tank stirred. Since then I got one. Some people swear it makes a difference, although I haven't seen a huge one.

This crop I'm running Bud XL (ran it actually) and shooting powder at almost full dose (1 or 2 satchels per 30 gallons instead of 25) and the girls seem to like it OK. I'm not seeing colas as big as a baby's leg but no burning so far either.

I was going to start a thread on P/K boosters but might as well as my question here.

Has anyone looked into how many PPM of P and K each of the major brand P/K boosters have in them and compared price? P and K aren't magic nor are they expensive in and of themselves. From what I can see (with my limited knowledge) that Kool Bloom, Add .27 Bloom from Dutchmaster, Kushy Kush, and Shooting Powder all do the same thing. The only possible difference would be some other additives each might have.

yes they are very similar but I have compared MOAB and Shooting powder and Shooting powder had a cleaner tasting, looking product...MOAB is cheaper. Have you noticed when u add Shooting powder it fizzes? They say that is a special technology that makes P/K available immediately. Called epervesence...I think....Peace and good luck

They're liking it so far. They're filling out nice and hard. I have about a week to go or so. Normally this strain starts to turn purple when it's done and I don't see that yet so the Shooting Powder might be delaying the end of flowering. I've read that it does that and I'm fine with it as long as it adds weight, which it looks like it's doing. I think I could drive nails with the buds.

In my experience it has never delayed flowering....are your temps higher than normal? Sometimes this stops the purple effect.
