Good morning people. There are a lot of natural boosters yes lol how much they work?? Who knows .. i know someone who used his missus monthly as well.

While on the subject...Aspie if I do visit you one day remind me not to drink from your glasses :lol:

I grow in coco and i tried a couple different boosters. Then i tried growing the same strain in the same environment but withiut using boosters in flower. Only base nutrienta and PK. I find the second option resulting to better quality buds and better yield. It it also cheaper and easier to grow using 2 nutrients only in flower. More nutrients you use more trouble you're asking for imo :)

Really good info there mate

That's kinda why I'm asking. I use base nutes and molasses. I have pk 4/8 but never really used it till now

Yeah I caught the Mrs monthly thread on the "dark side" nutter lol

I guess I wanna know why people add them, what people think these add to there feed that wasn't already there and if a plant queues the use of boost or if it's kinda habitual?

I am not scientists mate but I know they need PK. I am personally using Hammerhead 4/10 and I am really happy. I used to use the Canna PK 13/14 but I found it too strong and certain low feeding strains can get stunted growth. While the lower rate PK from Hammerhead is much safer to use.
I know some of the boosters are claiming to have different Amino Acids in them, Vitamins, Triacontanol , blends of carbohydrates, humic acid, and obviously Phosphorous and Potassium. I don't say they don't work, what I say is , are they really needed?
I might get another bottle of Green Planet Massive Bloom and give it a go again when I grow the exodus cheese next..just to see if it will have any difference but I can't see it getting any better than that lol.

Yeah thanks mate. I can appreciate the science seems a lil daunting but I love all that stuff

Tbh I don't really understand if ratios stack when talking about NPK like if I use 2 ml of bloom at 3-4-7 and one ml pk at 4/8

Is my ratio like 6-12-22 with the appropriate decimal place?
