i swear by earth juice with hygrozyme and molasses. nothing but stellar results....not to mention an easy intro into organics. it's a great place to start...

I've had good luck with both Botanicaire and Bio Thrive, but I am not dedicated to any one product. Try what is available to you, in lower concentrations than the label suggests at first, and see if there are issues.

After buying it, I noticed that some of Bio Thrive's micronutrients come from added sulfates, though its macronutrients are from organic sources. I don't know what the regulations involving "organic" produce are, so I can't say whether this is an official violation of calling a product "organic."

A product only has to be 96% organic to get the OMRI stamp of approval

I like Age Old Organics, and Blue Mountain Organics Super Plant Tonic. I have yet to try AN's organic line, but I have heard lots of rage about them. Now you have me thinking lol.

I have done Earth Juice, Fox Farm, Age Old, Pure Blend, Bio Bizz And Pura Vida organic ferts. Pura Vida beats them all for various reasons. Earth Juice is inconsistant and all kinds of bio mass in it-like using sewage. Fox Farm is not better but way more expensive. Age Old is similar, but hard to find-who knows how old the fert in the bottle is when you buy it. Works better than Pure Blend. Bio Bizz is weaker and needs supplements. Pura is fine by itself, but you can add Hygrozyme and AN Nirvana for a tweak.

Get some premium organic soil and add some worm cast to it.
Doesn't get any easier than that.

Bio-Bizz is my favorite. Probably because I have more experience with it then the others. I tried all of them but Age Old and still prefer bio-bizz. It seems cleaner then Pura Vida. Pura Vida will spoil faster then Bio-Bizz if left to sit. I don't use the Bio-Bizz fish mix for the same reason. Stinking ass fish. Anyway, I would say the most important thing is to stick to it and perfect the one you choose. It's not the nutes it's the grower and their knowledge of those nutes.

For Bio-Bizz to work properly you need to use:
Bio-grow
Bio-Bloom
Root Juice
Alg-a-mic
Top-Max

Hygrozyme, Sweet, Nature's Necture Guano add 0-4-0 for a tweek.

I found Pura Vida needs supplements too. I do like it though. I have some and am using it right now.

Pura claims their nutes should not be bubbled or used as food source in tea.

Bio-grow is great for brewing compost tea. Use it instead of molasses.


So many nutes...... so little time....:)

I never perfected the Pura line. It looks like you have your minerals covered covered. Still room for some bloom enhancers. I would use Guano add 0-4-0 and Top Max to get them blooms going. Just something to bump the phosphorus and aid in blooming. idk. don't wanna steer ya wrong since I'm no Pura Vida Pro.

Motherlode,

Pura Vida needs some type of bloom stimulator in addition to what you are already adding. You could use Top Max, Hydroplex or AN Nirvana to your bloom mix. I add molasses during the 2nd half of bloom as well.
