I'm in preflower and just wondering what everyone uses during the flowering for the best buds and flavors.
I'm in preflower and just wondering what everyone uses during the flowering for the best buds and flavors.
I just purchased this. Had a lot of good reviews so figured I'd try it out.I wouldn’t use UVB. UVA has the same effect and isn’t harmful to plants or animals. And quite frankly I’ve been just fine without any additional UV supplements.
I was asking about nutes. You are saying those nutes go hand in hand with UVB? My lights are viparspectra p1500 in a 2x2 tent. I occasionally take my plants outside because you can see them stretch and just soak up natural sunlight. But they are on 18/6 light schedule. Being outside (when I do they are there for 4 or 5 hours), and then I bring them back in to my tent til they go dark for the night. But again this isnt an everyday deal. But I read they need different nutes once they flower and again this rings tru when following my FF nutes feeding schedule. Here is what in looking at for flowerI suggest doing some research. You're getting conflicting information.
I have both used and not used pk boosters and I can say for a certainty they work and are worth the very few dollars they cost. The research shows they work and the difference is very noticable.
I have used both uva, uvb and no uv.
I definitely notice the difference. The research is conclusive, its UVB not UVA that does it. In appropriate levels they do not harm the plant at all. They are only in use for 2 weeks or 10 days, and only for 2 to 5 hours each day. Set your timers for a time you're not in there. With the levels you need, you would have to be under the uv lights within a foot for 20 or 30 minutes before you would think of getting a sunburn. Think tanning lights. Not lab grade decontamination.
As for animals, well I shouldn't have to bring up that if you're animals are in your growspace, you dont care much about your growspace and you're probably not looking in to UV.
Dont take my word for it though, there are many good research papers, studies and video examples you can find for it.
There are different PK Boosters on the market and both of what are mentioned in this thread. Flower Fuel and Moab are really strong. Flower Fuel being the weaker of the two at 1-34-32 is still really hit in PK. Take a look at some of the other PK boosters that are more like 1-6-7. They come in different levels of strength. Some like Green Sensation work really well in early flower for early bud development. Overdriver works well towards the last 1/3 of flower and something like flower fuel would be OK for like the last week or two of flower. I have not used Flower Fuel but I have used Moab and I do not like the outcome generated by these products. IMO they mess the plant up more than the value they add. I have seen plants just stripe all of the nutrients out of the lower fan leaves too early and while I have Moab, I no longer use the product.I was asking about nutes.

You already bought a pk booster, so go ahead and use it. Maybe use it on some of the plants and compare. Some folks like to use it once at the beginning of flower. That's another option. It's just something you don't HAVE to use. The plants accumulate the P they need early on anyway.But my question is are those PK booster working hand in hand with lights? I was asking about nutes and you guys are mentioning lights. So a little confused where this is all heading. I mean I'm sure all nutes work hand in hand with lights but my main question is about bloom boosting nutes in general.

They're looking great! I'd agree with you and not wait any longer. Good luck!I appreciate all the info. I have been LST and have several good starting bud sites already. I will add a few pics so you all can see. I just feel like it's a few weeks into flower and from my research (which there's enough good and bad out there) I thought I may have needed this to continue with a healthy grow.
@Anthem were you saying the ratios in the one I got was to high? Should I do like what I did for starting my nutes and maybe half dose and see how they react to it? Honestly they have taken everything I have given them really well and very vigorously. I guess I can ask the same question to @Terpz719 as well. I read several reviews on the stuff I purchased and seemed to have stellar reviews. Guess like you said maybe try it out and see what happens. I'm in about the 2nd week so guess now is the time to try.
So go ahead and dose but maybe at half and see how they take it? Sound like a good plan?They're looking great! I'd agree with you and not wait any longer. Good luck!
