Anyone ever use floranoba bloom for flowering autos in ocean forest?????I am trying ocean forest mixed with coco and it's going great so far but when I get to bloom I plan on using the floranova bloom .I grow with coco and so far mixing the 2 has given me great results but curious if the floranova will be too much for the auto even with a dilluted feeding each time?

Ocean forest is an organic medium packed with nutrition for 4 weeks. I use a combo of OF and HF and change to a pour nute at flip that is also organic.
floranova bloom is a chemical based fertilizer designed for constant feed systems such as drsin to waste , hydro and coco without soil. Any nutrition can be used but the load is pretty high and I do not know if the nutes would be complimentary or would kill off the natural biome in the grow.

I use a pour organic called foop. It is expensive but it's straight organic and a minty smell instead of compost tea reek

Due to cost I have been thinking of switching to a different organic nutrition. I am stuck on Dr earth which needs cal-mag and silica

There’s nothing wrong with flora nova bloom. I would never use it in a hydro system though lol. It’s fine in soil. I use the light dose every watering. With ocean forest and autos it’s when I see bloom start or the plant tells me it’s hungry. Which ever is first.
