PBP hydro in soil

[dub 6]

Captain jackass does it again ... i mistakenly picked up PBP bloom for hydro instead of soil. Opened and used it just now and realized my mistake. no refunds at the grow shop. I'm growing in promix, castings and perlite. How would this mistake effect my grow?

the npk stats on bloom hydro are 2-3-5 and the bloom soil 1-4-5.

am i screwed out of $15 or can it be used?

thanks in advance

gee.. thanks for the help. i guess ill figure it out.

you didnt make any mistake. Promix is peat moss, which is a type of soilless mix. when using a soilless mix you want to use nutrients designed for hydroponics instead of soil. 2-3-5 is a better NPK ratio than 1-4-5 IMO so you helped yourself out actually.

dizzle.. thanks for the info.

PBP Hydro is the shit. Wayyy better ratio for what you're doing than the Soil formula.

Run the PBP Bloom for the first 5-6 weeks then switch it up for the last with some PBP soil formula. I run the bloom in my hydro set-up the same way and switch to the soil for my phosphorus boost at the end, works super good and makes the buds nice and thick.

Good luck, Peace

i did the same thing 2 times. worked just fine

Yeah, I only had a little problem one time with some lockout in my soil, N def.
I think they have a .5 pH difference (could've just been high), but it could have just been the mommas getting rootbound.
But I was running more 'soil' than peat.
