Not quite, still a few cells (mis)firing.
Btw I got the sarcasm, I'm just giving you a hard time.

We are friends, brothers, fellows in arms, doing what we love.
I never intended to come off as a know it all or like I was telling you what to do.
I just don't like the secrecy of these nutrient companies. They don't have to specify the exact mix, but at least be honest with the ingredient list.
And I do know a little about plant nutrition, so I understand 99% of the products and claims made by these companies are bull so I spread a healthy skepticism among my fellow growers.
Anyway, take care, and may your future be filled with much more success.

hah get me a sponsership il put aptus to the test on open sun 200 gallon plants and see what kind of effects it has! if aptus got the outdoor circle on the bandwagon their sales would surely increase...
but shit if i empty 1000 gallons worth of reservoirs in one feeding how much aptus do i need lol...

i dont believe in these nutrient companys and the advantage they take on pot growers, only pot growers are paying these prices for these nutes, any other vegetable growers are doing it organically or the the ones that use chems use the cheapest shit, prolly something from monsanto cuz they dont care about quality or they wouldnt be using chems to begin with.
i grow the original way youre supposed to. with soil and water. make my soil with all the correct amendments, add water and teas and never had better bud. 100x easier and cheaper. soil costs about $6-$10 per cf depending on how many amendments i use. and i pay for grow bags, other then that once i pay for the soil i wont spend another dollar. i can even reuse the soil. dont have to ph or check ppms. just fuckin pour water every few days when it gets dry. easiest thing i ever done. and the teas prolly cost me like a dollar to make.
its sad how these nutrient companys take advantage of pot growers cuz pot growers think marijuana is some special plant that grows different then others and requires advanced nutrients 50 bottle lineup. it grows just like any other plant.
i know with large scale grows you can get a boosted yield that adds up a lot and you can get the buds to look better with chem nutes, so i dont hate on growers that use these bottles, i just choose not to. maybe if i was just about the money i would use nutes but i love good pot.
if i was to use nutes i would use this big ass tub of jacks i got for $15 before i made the switch. add some silica, cal mag and seaweed and some bloom boosters in flower.
im not hating just the way i do it and i try to help others see the light.

A lot of growers struggle to keep the plant alive.
They add so much shit in there it kills the plant
It's a very confused market. Thanks to the American marketing machine
Growersarebecoming more aware though and guys like you have to lead the way for the uneducated guys

is cheaper than most big brands. What you use at the moment?
And cycocel is a pgr..... But I have seen plenty of cycocel crops and I don't believe it's in fasiltor, cycocel inhibitis resin, and makes plants a real dark green colour buds full of pistils and rock hard. I don't believe there are any true synthetic pgr's in the Aptus line although bio silicic acid can be categorised as a natural pgr as it does regulate plant growth only from organic compounds as opposed to synthetic.
Heres a quote from my thread about silicic acid. It contains the data from the dept of WA AG on Fasilitor/Regulator.

yea, i was wrong, its not chlorocholine chloride that is used in the choline-stabilized silicic acid formula but rather choline chloride. Slightly different, but still a PGR or gibberlin inhibitor.
I can't say that it is, and am not saying it is bad if it is.
but it seems to be, to me.
choline stabilized silicic acid is the new tech for bio available silicon, including human and animal supplements. thats not to say you should drink your fasilitor.
anyway, cheers, great grow show!
