I just use Methyl Jasmonate, same idea as most ripeners, and only need to use once, 25ppm at 3 weeks pre harvest is all that is needed. Great insurance for a pest free ripening stage as well.
A lot of these "terp enhancers/ripeners" only have to label ingredients that provide nutritional value.
My guess is that you'll get the same results adding 2 drops lemongrass oil and 50 ppm of Florel per gallon of water, once a week, 3 weeks prior to flush. Would save a shit ton of cash in the long run. Have never worked with any of these products but understand they command a bit of dough. My two cents anyways...
I hear ya, and feel it's a good route to go, especially if you're not comfortable with converting molecular weight to ppm.I think I paid maybe $25 for a quart of Terpenez and it recommends 3-8 ml per gallon through flower or 5-10ml per gallon just during flush. Not expensive by my standards, I wouldn't care to spend the time figuring out a diy solution unless I was doing way higher volume.

Understand why these companies are somewhat vague in regards to their labeling, have to protect the recipe somehow.
Wish these companies would be a little less transparent in regards to labeling practices. Due to the terp profiles that you can obviously smell with some of these products, people should be aware that these terps will play a role in overall flavoring of finished product. I'd be quite upset to grow out some of Archive's Dos-si-dos, only to use one of these terp products and my finished meds come out tasting like your everyday Northern Lights or the like...
Well this is from my stash, and if I wanted to homebrew a ripening/terp product I would do this per gallon of water 3 weeks prior to flush/harvest considering different cultivars have different finishing times.
Citric Acid (fructose) - 2 tablespoons
Sucanat (sucrose) - 2 tablespoons
Florel (commonly available ripener, uses ethephon to promote ethelyne functions, ethelyne is the phytohormone responsible for ripening) - 50 ppm
Lemongrass oil (myrcerne & pinene) - 2 drops
Orange oil (limonene) -4 dropsView attachment 939814
