hey ecomp, I'm interested what u think about headmaster by canadian express? and the old bud xl by H&G? I've used that headmaster for quite a while and i really like it but I'm interested to know what u think.

its good grade potash man in the SupK they do, seems funny to get it from Canada, they mine it off the coast of Yorkshire. Headmaster. I dont know much about headmaster or masta whatever they spell it like mate but your plants are awesome. I suspect its Silicon with some VitC etc. I know its popular in the UK and they word things well in the ads.

FYI: In my experience, monosilicic acid is the thing that regulates the internal plant sap pH, so it goes this helps the uptake of other nutrients that would be essential for building good flavour and form for finishing well. MSA is the secret behind organics and one of the reasons in soil no one has to regulate media pH at input
The internals are the vital part. Homeostasis of the plant is the only objective of the plant, it frankly could not give a shit about the pH of the media, unless its really bad either way then it wont get what it asks for, not a fault of the plant at that stage tho, more a problem with the grower or environment. Organic acids are awesome, Humics and Fulvics too aid the process of uptake by chelating, (making plant ready) lots of micros, they scoop up free radicals which occur as our plant feeds.
Plants look after themselves, they spit out ions in to the media and dont care if there is nothing to scavenge it (eg microbes) and prevent it causing ongoing issues such as pH swings in the soil or blah. Only media rich in organic acids can mitigate these free ions if there is no biology adding it is very important imo, hence we use Fulvics etc in hydro also. It is the accumulation of ions that swing pH in the media. This locks or leaches what our plants need, so at this point we get defs. . I suspect headmasta is a combination of organic acids, including Silicon, Humates, AA and GA which likely comes from kelp or barley.
House and Garden is very expensive imo, its a hybrid, synth organic? Like autos, i remain unconvinced of this model of delivery, but people love it. I am not sure where peoples levels are, so I find it hard to say if other people using it means good. or just popular like Dutch Pro :-)

Did you know, it takes about 300ths of a second for a plant to release an exudate and for a microbe to release a K ion or other. I am not sure how a synth would make this process any faster, but we do know Synthetic Nitrogen destroys soil carbons and its a likely major contributing factor to world wide soil erosion. Not an issue in some coco pot, till we understand all that coco has to go somewhere too, usually landfill or the back yard. No carbon means no food.

yeah this is their blurb, its a bit light on actual info but my gut feeling is that the product is good, I've been using it for quite some time from day 1 of flower.

Do you get high yields with high quality together? High quality can be very elusive, especially when yield increases and hidden factors have had their input into your final product. There are unfortunately a number of environmental and physical conditions that can reduce your quality.

When the yield is increased by inferior products it often means the plant has a higher water content, larger cells, thinner cell walls and lower desirable solids effectively diluting the quality of the plant. As a result you will most likely end up with lots of low quality end product. That is why it is not common to get both high yield and high quality together. Many growers get high quality at the expense of high yields or vice versa.

This is where Head Masta will transform your crop into a high yielding, high quality super crop. Head Masta, nutrients for flowering, acts in four ways to increase both yield and quality. Firstly, it simulates an internal plant hormonal signal that induces increased flower formation and additional flowering sites. Secondly, it pumps plant cells full of extra vitamins and minerals required by the plant to convert excess light and nutrients into the highest quality proteins, amino acids and carbohydrates. These plant made quality factors are produced way beyond normal levels and are the key to your increased quality. The third effect is to pump the flower cells with weight producing silicon and finally it increases the plants desire for potassium to a point where the plant becomes bound to the luxury consumption of this important yield enhancer.

Water is essential for the plant’s normal functioning as we know. Normally, a shortage of water is more dangerous than too much water. However, excess water in the plant upsets the plants internal osmotic balance which results in lower quality. Head Masta overcomes this disrupted osmotic balance and restores the correct ratio of solids to water.

Temperature differential is essential for quality production. If there is no temperature difference between night and day temperatures, or night temperatures are higher than day temperatures, then quality will suffer. In this context, day means when the lights are on and night is when the lights are off. Head Masta stimulates your plants so that they can overcome these problems. It provides an osmotic balance within the plant that doesn’t normally occur when conditions aren’t right.

Night temperatures should be at least 5-10°c lower than day temperatures.

Head Masta puts YOU in the driver’s seat where high quality can be yours with every crop. And that’s without sacrificing yield. In fact, independent testing shows that Head Masta treated plants outperform untreated plants in BOTH yield and quality.

See your retailer for more information about this bloom enhancer.

Lool Yeh your ammo this time round was fookin bangin mate when's my feckin cut coming??? U know u wanna rmfao after a few hours graft in the garden mmmmmmm tasty

haha im dealing with my pest issues mate, I've got a pal with it though, as soon as his are big enough I'm gonna drop a cut to ya. its the complete plant!
 
#22,346
That's where I went wrong I tested my run off ph and it was a a bit low so I got it back to 6.0-6.4 and all hell broke loose lol...leaves curling up and all sorts I've not checked my run off in donkeys as well I suppose it's what's going in that matters hey

Then u myt be getting some rim treatment lol.....sorry man I forgot about the pest issues ha stoners ay...sometimes I'll think of something and then boom it's gone and I'm left sat there like wtf was in gonna do lol

@Ecompost a friend of mine makes an organic kind of copy (he's vague with the details) of bud xtra, i think he said he uses yucca in the process and damn that stuff is amazing on week 5 of bloom till the end, everything swells up and goes super stinky, he makes his mazing root product too with added humates and fulvics but only recently managed to preserve it, stuff was a bit too organic to be bottled in a stable fashion.

whats that premier sweets again lol?

Aye thise bottles u gave me started knocking out a bit of a pong after a few weeks so I stopped using it and the fact that when I opened that cap it splatted all over my white t shirt

yeah hes improved it now, he was dedicated to making it all organic but struggled to keep it stable in the bottle. He has nailed it now though. u got to try out this bud Xtra he makes, i could get u a small bottle to use on a couple of plants if u are interested?
 
#22,354
Aye it was like it was fermenting lol...I won't say no but don't go out your way like....I was gonna get a 250ml canna boost just to do a side by side against sumo boost with the same strain but in cud do the same with that instead next grow
