Humic and Fulvic acid

[desertsquirrel]

Anyone have a brand (best bang for the buck) they think works best for chemical hydro w/benificals?

2high im looking at you.

 

[dmt]

i wouldnt add humic to hydro imvho, but advanced nutrients granma enggys fulvic, gh diamond nectar, or green planet wholsales 888 uptake are all quality sourced and reasonabley priced to boot, good luck, d

 

[desertsquirrel]

I havent used it in my chem either. but i keep hearing the big dogs swear buy it (soil and hydro). ALso, I could really use a PH down that is benificial.

Plus you cannot even see my hydrotons because there is a thick layer of benificial fungus covering them.... i think the humic would would help them.....

what do you guys think?

 

[dmt]

ive tried it in nft and buckets, and humic is thick and slimey. clogs lines and leave sediment and residue.

fulvic is nice and clean. all you can do is try it. i just dont like slime on my roots or in my system, peace, d

 

[desertsquirrel]

I feel you man, thats why i havent used it so far...

I just called the hydro store and the guy said that diamond nectar has both fulvic and humic... this true? something about a lableing issue in CA, OR and WA... i think i remember 2high saying this as well....

anyone know?

 

[dmt]

did some asking around. fulvic is bomb for hydro set ups, and humic for dirt. d

 

[desertsquirrel]

Thanks for the help dog...

Happy Blast-Offs.

 

[desertsquirrel]

Btw i grabed some diamond necture today.... ill let u know... thanks again...

 

[dmt]

i know hydro guys that use the nectar, granma enggys and 888 uptake with good success, avoid the black stuff, peace, d

You guys are using Mycorrhizae and Bacterial beneficials with Chemical based nutes ?

 

[desertsquirrel]

yes sir...

you cant even see the hydroton.... just a thick mat of beni's..... smells just like organic soil... Still working out some Ph issues.

But yes, the chemicals do not phase the beni's at all.... even the bayer tree and shub doesnt bother them (infact they seem to love it LOL).

Lets see some hairs on the roots proving its properly inoculated.

bioag ful-power is the best out there

i've been using it with coco with great results; i only use it a couple weeks into flower but it rocks in veg and as part of a foliar rotation

 

[!!!]

I use Floralicious Plus which contains fulvic/humic acids but I don't know if it contains enough per dose—probably not.

 

[desertsquirrel]

!!! you use floralicious plus in your chemical rezz? i want to try it but im afraid of blow back so i went with the diamond necture... Hows it working for you?

I dont have a good camera yet xare, sorry... but there are others with pics up here, try a search...

try liquid karma it has humic and fulvic it isnt thick and it has carbs and amino acids

 

[desertsquirrel]

hhmmm i dont think the diamond necture has carbs, and adding them has been a problem for me so that would be a good alternative... thanks darth, i may just have to try all 3.

I've used Liquid Black Crystal, Liquid Gold, & Diamond Nectar in recirculating top feed drip with both coco and rockwool with great success.. I currently switch back and forth between using LBC/LG together and DN depending on availability

I also tried out the Floralicious Plus for a couple rounds and found it to be too touchy. Some girls loved it and some got fried by it (that's also what the GH guys warned me about when I got my samples - so if you use it go light). These days I'm back to using Floralicious Grow & Flower.. which I will sometimes substitute with B'Cuzz G&F, again depending on availability.

 

[desertsquirrel]

THanks tommy... I have been keeping up with the other humic/fulvic threads as well and been hearing so many good things about the floralicious plus... im leaning towards using it on a trial basis.... i have had the Diamond necture in the rezz for almost 3 days now and no foam up so im feeling good about that.... Aso when i put it in the beni culture it went crazy. =)

thanks for the help everyone

Technaflora Liquid Humus says 15% humic acids, its thick like sludge, application rate of 2mL/Gal and doesnt clog my feed lines.

2mL/Gal is the lowest application rate of any liquid humic product im aware of. I hate paying for water weight.
