Mixing Triacontanol for foliar?

[seymore_budz]

Anyone got any experience? I think I have a pretty good idea about how to mix it but always interested in others experiences.

isn't this mainly for flower? As I know green planet massive bloom has it in its ingredients.

triacontanol stimulates a few things within the plant so you can start spraying in grow. Some will use it just in flower to improve plant sites etc. Canna boost accelerator is another that makes use of triacontanol. I'm interested to see how it works as a foliar though. My theory is you can push things a little harder and maybe see some decent gains. I've got 5 grams of flake and an emulsifier enroute so we will see what happens. It will either give me some big stonking buds or I'll overdo it and end up with some lady boys :)

I didn`t know triacontanol aka myricyl alcohol, melissyl alcohol was a bloody form of alcohol till just now. Yes triacontanol is dissolved in isopropyl or bloody petrol mate. Here`s what i just read from same site i used to buy from, so i copied and pasted it >>>

Dissolve in alcohol, n-butyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl ether, chloroform, petroleum, polysorbate20 (Tween20). The solution may need heating to improve solubility.

In fact it tells you how too and not too`s here on this page when mixing the flake > http://www.triplantanol.com/triacontanol.html

I just used to buy it pre-mixed from those guys and i`d sling into either a bottle of AnB or pk boost give a good shake and bingo jobs a good en.

Oh man it must have been at least 5 years ago and closer to ten prolly that i faffed around with it, tbh ive played around with what seems like almost everything fert and additive wise over years, new this, boost that, well everything except growing organically. These days i just use AnB, pk 13/14, Si and a bit of seaweed or superthrive every once in a while, which says it all really, i mean if i`d have noticed anything more im sure i would have remembered, but i cant tbh, it might have or might have not but nowt major in a bigger room as well. But im of belief AnB & PK Boost is all that`s needed to grow big fat buds nowadays and not even that, AnB will do jobby. But in all honesty i can`t remember owt worth remembering sorry fella.

No problem @2-Scoops, thanks for the information. I've got some polysorbate20 and the triacontanol flake will be here tomorrow then I'll knock some up and give it a whirl. I only have one flowering tent and that's about 24 days in so I'll doubt I'll see much difference there but the real fun will start on my next cycle.

I see the stuff your mixing it with is also on the list in link i added up, it was just i bought pre-mixed and the guys who did that used alcohol. So what will you be mixing the flake too strength wise per liter or gallon, Is it 0.5 or 0.05ec per ltr of your ferts/water mix ? i can`t remember again lol.

So the triacontanol is just one part of a blend I'm planning on trialing. But how I will prepare the mix is 2g of Triacontanol 98% , 6ml polysorbate20 mixed into 100ml of RO water. That should give me a concentrate that I can further dilute to around 12ppm by adding 2ml of concentrate to 1ltr of water.

Triacontanol + hydrolyzed whey protein = canna boost maybe ? Both are main ingredient in these type of boosts. Problem with using hydrolyzed whey protein is it doesn`t stand too long a week at max from what i read before once mixed, but in mixing that you`d be saving a fortune if your flower boost using type person, the fert makers use things like parabins in these boosts and also bottled type organic ferts in general to prevent them stinking up and going off happening (really organic hey, dont make me laugh ), but yes back on track they`re used so it stands for time and gives a long shelf life. Prolly could sling in some vits and carbs to that too but not sure, if your wanting a list of ingredients for shelf bought stuff MedTek formerly ManicBotanix used to break them down for analysis and print them up.
