Hi All!! Here's a Test Setup:::
So, doing an experiment with 2 fert lines:: Botanicare & GH Triple 5
GH Micro=8ml per gal RO water
Bloom=16ml per gal
Sweet-Berry=10ml per gal (Prevents stem stretching)
This is the base mix EC:2.2
Floralicious+ =1/8 tsp per 80oz RO water (1/2 gal+16oz cup RO water) This is mixed in a separate container from the base mix.
(2-0.8-0.02)
When applying the ferts to your plants, just mix 50/50 of base+ flora+,
mix these two together, then add Carboload powder 1/4 tsp per gal,
and Calmag+ 1/4 tsp per gal, and also, Pot O Gold if available in your area 3 tsp per gal, Mix all together, and PH to 5.8 and EC1.4~1.6. Might need a little extra water to make the EC correct,and once in awhile, use some molasses 1 tsp per gal
That's It!!! Fairly simple...
So,the Micro+Bloom=5-5-5and the adding of Calmag+ = 7-5-5+ Flora+= 9-5.08-5.002 I guess?! This mix works GREAT!!!
Botanicare::
Pure Blend Pro Grow= 1.5 tsp per gal RO water
PBPBloom= 1.5 tsp per gal
PBPBloom/soil= 1.5 tsp per gal
Calmag+= 1 tsp per gal for veg, and 1.5 tsp for bloom
Sweet-Berry= 2 tsp per gal for veg, and 3 tsp per gal for bloom
Carboload powder= 1/4 tsp per gal (food for plant & microherd)
Sensizym= 2 tsp per gal (enzymes)
GH Sub Culture= 1/4 tsp per 1.5 gal(once a month)(microbes)
Bud Blood powder= 1/4 tsp per gal (Veg/Transition)
Big Bud powder= 1/4 tsp per gal (Blooming)
Overdrive= 2 tsp per gal (Bloom finishing)
Gravity=1/2 tsp per gal (Makes hard nuggets baby!!!)
Purple Maxx= 1 tsp per gal( For RESIN Production!)
Final Phase= 2 tsp per gal (1st flush 7~10 days,then plain RO water)
Pot O Gold 3 tsp per gal if available in your area,by the way the label
shows a GIANT BEAN Stalk growing to the sky!!!!
Also, use GH PH up/down, the up has potassium silicate,and also use
some Dynagrow protekt (silicone 7.8%) vs.(Silica Blast 2.8%),also
Love Botanicare products, but lately I think they are watering it down,and taking away some Humic acid, changing the N-P-K ratios
The new bloom for instance, is watery and not thicker like my old bottle is,and they took all the humic away??? It was 7%?? What is the deal?? as Seinfelt would say!!! Also, I saw that their new fert
lines have Humic acid!!!
Back to the subject::: PH the above mix to 5.8/EC 1.4~1.8
The grow~Transition~Bloom~Finish~Flush is your choice from the above ingredients, they both work GREAT!!! But, taste/smell/resin/yield....I like B O T A N I C A R E !!! Just My 2 cents!! Here's a pic of
True Blueberry in a simple cheap drip bucket, using GH Triple 5 mix::
The plant is in a 6"x6" cube for the base,these work GREAT! NO more
plant falling over from small root base....:jump
Notice in pic 3 the internode spacing it kept to a minimal,that's the Sweet-berry doing its job......
Here's a pic of the bloom phase using Botanicare, but my way,not the way the bottle says.....use both bloom+bloom/soil together+Big
Bud powder.....and look at 30 days flower
