Hey check out these side by side pics from my grow and a friends grow......same exact cut - SFV OG kush, grown in similar but different methods using a Fox Farms/Perlite mix.
Ok, so far left is my friends. he grows in hydro, feeds 2x a day. his mix is 50/50 so way more perlite than me, no light warrior just FFOF and a bunch of perlite. He feeds using Floranova Micro and Bloom, with one light dose of kool bloom around week five. His was picked 8-9 weeks, and is really nice herb with frost and good swollen calyxes.
Middle is mine, grown in something similar to moonshine mix. FFOF/FFLW/perlite Very little nutes were used, maybe 2-3 feedings of the Fox Farms line including Tiger Bloom, etc. Each feeding was maybe 1/3 strengh tops....picked at nine weeks. incredible flavor and nice swollen calyxes.
Third one was bit of a dissapointment. It was picked early, so maybe thats why it didnt bulk up. Same soil mix as the middle, same nutes, except at around week 5 i tried something new and used a half dose of Dutchmaster Potash. This sent the plants into nute burn central, and i think this drastically reduced the yeild. Good smell, taste, and trichs, but very small calxys, almost look shriveled up.
SO ONTO THE MAIN QUESTION - DO YOU USE ANY ADDITIVES OR BOOSTERS WITH YOUR FOX FARMS OR OTHER SOIL MIXES???
Anything you swear by to increase glands and overal density/size?
I have another crop coming down soon where i boosted it around 8 weeks right before flush with Bloombastic and some Cha-ching at a 1/3 dose....so hopefully those will bulk up real good. that will also be a 9 week pull.
So maybe the far right nug is just smaller because it was pulled to early...or maybe it needed some added ferts. I forgot to add that for the most part, i only water with plain water and a very light nute regimen every 2-3 feedings. OG Kush likes to burn if you ever try to creep above 1/3 dose, at least in my experiance...
Interested to hear what my fellow FF soil growers have to say.....Anything you swear by? Anybody tried GRAVITY in conjunction with FF soil mixes?

Here is a gal 47 days in flower with using these additives/boosters.
