I have a friend who uses the dry. I have not used it myself but I remember seeing a thing of dry big bud on his shelf.
 
i use KoolBloom -- liquid....my buddy tried the dried crystal KoolBloom as per recommendation of the guygs @ a hydro store -- he saw NO difference at all......
 
I got the dry one. It's much more economical IMO. I use small amounts and don't have to worry about spilling as much with the powder.
 
how many gr x gallon ?
Well, the standard dosage is 10 grams per 20 liters or 1.5 tsp per 5 gal. I usually put like a quarter teaspoon in a gallon of water to start and then gradually increase. It's not the only nutrient I'm feeding, so I keep the concentration very low since it's pretty strong stuff.

I used the Big Bud Powder. Follow the light feeding schedule on the calculator. You do not want to burn your plants when using a bloom enhancer. The 2.5kg container of Big Bud lasted me a long time (6k watt grow)

I have switched to Humboldt Nutrients Ginormous/Big Up for comparison.
 
Using Big Bud powder here. I'll tell you this, for 40 gallons it was recomended that I put in 12 tsp. I put in 6, then added another 6 later. After adding the last 6, I got the telltale "burn just at the tip" of the leaves at the top of the plant, but it never progressed. Their medium feeding is pretty darn aggressive, so I'd say start with 1/4 at week 2, 1/2 at weeks 3-4 and then switch off to overdrive for the rest.

I use Pureblend Pro base nutes with Liquid Karma, Calmag and AN Bud Candy. Hope this helps. The powder is cheaper and lasts.

with bud blood you only add it 1 time only so in theroy that 40g should last you for a few grows if your just a hoby grower.
