I should have done more homework before talking shit.
BaseBoost-
- Compounded NPK fertilizer with Magnesium (Mg) and Sulfur (S)
- Organically chelated microelements such as, Boron (B), Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn), Zinc (Zn)
- L-Amino Acids
Fasilitor-
- Silicic Acid (Si) ā Nutrient transporter
- Boron (B) ā A precursor to all other nutrient utilization
- Molybdenum (Mo) ā Moves Nitrogen from lower to upper leaves
StartBoost-
- Organic Nitrogen chelated with L-Amino Acids
- Microlife biomass from controlled fermentation of selected strains (specific beneficials)
- Humic acid from the Leonardite layer
- High-grade Fulvic acid
BloomBoost-
- L-Amino Acids
- Polysaccharides (sugars)
- Trace elements: Boron (B), Iron (Fe), Molybdenum (Mo)
- Bloom promoting natural plant stimulants
- Vitamin complexes produced by natural fermentation
PeakBoost-
- Provides a large amount of organic Phosphorous (P) in the generative and bloom phase
- 100% water soluble and organic leaving no residue
- Combines organic Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorous (P) with L-Amino Acids
- High bioavailability
- Powerful stimulating effect on the blooming process
MassBoost-
- Organic Nitrogen (N)
- Calcium (Ca)
- Magnesium (Mg)
- L-Amino Acids
FinaleBoost-
- Organic Nitrogen
- Potassium
- Sulfur Trioxide
- L-Amino Acids
Ecozen-
- Cellulase and beta-glucanase complexes
- Blend of sugar complexes (polysaccharides)
- Manganese (Mn)
A little homework, and we can see how many of these ingredients are easily reproduced at home, some are in fact NPK-based.
If one does not know the elemental ppms of their nute mix, one may not know the reason for deficiencies that require 8 different bottles to treat. Or however many bottles.
Been playing with micros myself.
Can get lots of organic components out of teas. Organic N, organic P, organic K.
L-aminos can be had from alfalfa as well as other sources.
Looks like
MassBoost has epsom salts(Mg, S)
Beware the definition of "organic", it can be used in a misleading fashion.
Sure you can run out and buy all this stuff. But be sure to know what is in each product you are using, and see why you need it.
If you had enough micros in your nute mix, you might not even need micros added from an
Aptus bottle.
If you added an awesome tea formula, that would knock out half the things they are trying to sell us.
It is shit like this that makes me say "
Aptus Schmaptus".
Aptus is not just organic additives, it is salts like I use too. Which should probably be in your base formula in the first place.
I'm going to try to figure out what's in there, and why it does or doesn't work.
Because then I will have a better understanding of plant nutrition and the underlying cause-and-effect relationships that determine performance.
5 liter bottles of
peakboost for $608?
Awesome.
