D3cyption yes I got the believer pack shit is fantastic. I tried it first with no base nutes and the plants really loved it.

Lyryc I don't think it's water it works excellent so far I have been getting nice results with it. Also check out jackmayoffers thread where he used aptus with advanced nutrients as a base. His shit came out phenomenal.

I use AN - but I'm just curious what the GNA is because it is not online - anywhere - I probably have to look up those specific sheets to see whats in it when they inspect nutrients and let them pass or not - since they just recently started selling here in Cali

Im too poor for that stuff. Know about jacks thread too - just was curious about a claim some one made.

Some one said its 98% water and I can't refute that and I'd like to get to the bottom of it - curiosity - nothing else lol

Yes d3cyption I am using it right now in flower. When I first gave it to them they look very sad leaves drooped. Then the next day (because I fed them almost before light shut off) they are raising there leaves towards the light praising it.

Lyryc u can go on aptus website and they have all the data sheets on it. I think they are pretty much additives. Well the start boost and facillitator anyways. You can get the believer pack for free from aptus they will ship it to your local garden shop or hydro shop. The facillitator was clear but the start boost almost looks like humic and fulvic acid. But the shit is supposed to be totally concentrated.

I also stuck a plant in those aptus pellets to see how well they do with plants. That would be the route I take with aptus it's way cheaper if it really works all the way through. I'll take pics tomorrow and post the plant I have in coco with the aptus pellets it's leaves are praying also and all I have been giving it is straight water tap water at that.

So far I am liking aptus I must say plants are healthy and green and very happy.

Sorry for the rant.

I have been using advanced iguana juice grow and I also switch back and forth between budda grow.

You still can use your base nutes with aptus they actually recommend it but use half the ratio that is called for by your base nute company.

So from here on out I'll be using aptus, advanced Mother Earth tea bloom as a base or budda bloom, rock resonator mid flower and forgot hydro honey.

I know about having to using a base...

Sounds like you're a adding a few other things along with altus. Any reason why?

I only used the aptus so far 3 times by itself. I really don't think you need to add anything else.

Rock resonator is great for resin production. I haven't used it yet don't think resonator u are suppose to use till mid flower. So if my plants don't look like they will need it I won't use it.

The hydro honey is for raising brix levels that shit makes your buds taste a lot better. It also makes your buds greasy and oily.

I also forgot I am gonna use also big up or top booster for a pk booster mid flower.

It all really depends from here on out what I use. If I feel I could get more weight out of the buds then I'll use the pk booster. But if the aptus alone is putting out some huge buds I won't bother using it.

The only thing from here on out I know for sure I'll be using will be the aptus, Mother Earth tea bloom and hydro honey. This way I am using my base, aptus and sweetener.

Actually if u wanna see the results just aptus will do I have no problems just trying to use aptus from here on out with just hydro honey as a sweetener. Kinda of a test grow to see if aptus can produce nice nugs without any other products. I am down to finish with it I have faith in the line. My plants loved it so I am convinced it will do great on its own.

Yeah. I think u should just run aptus.. especially if u going to follow their schedule.... thats what I plan to do... ive seen grows of aptus where people adding different things to the mix, and didnt get good result ..

I believe the only way u should use other pk's is if you're only using facilitator and startboost.. aptus seems to recommend the same also...

That's for sure I usually won't add a pk booster unless I feel I can get my plants to swell better than I'll use one.

I have found also if your plants aren't totally healthy and you hit them with a pk booster it only causes more issues especially in coco.

I'll stick to the aptus line and just my sweetener to finish this grow out. We will see if it produces excellent results by itself. I can say I am totally happy with it so far my plants are just overall thriving.

The thing that really has me interested is those aptus pellets with blocked coco. I have had my plant in it for about 2 weeks I think and it's perfectly green and all I have been giving it is straight tap water. I'll get a picture up of it today she couldn't be happier the way her leaves are angled.

Nope haven't ph'd anything. I don't even water to runoff I just put the pellets in and she has been getting just water no ph up or down or anything else. She is also under a led light and I haven't used cal/mg one time.

I'll have to check that thread out. I am very interested in these pellets. I think you could have pretty much a super soil or super coco just by using these pellets and less maintenance and mixing of bottles. Just put the pellets in water and leave it alone can't get much easier than that.

Thats what up.... what are ur klp currently yielding with it vs without mbferts ?

So, without that stuff, I only bushed out a bit with topping and pinching. I vegged about 4 weeks under 1000w MH. So maybe 4-5 tops on a good plant. Now all plants have 6 huge tops. That stuff forces horizontal growth, combined with all the topping and pinching. I gave effectively gained a scrog effect without the net. If I didn't have them packed so tight, they would bush out further. And vigor is 50% better. If you go with the VitaHormone mix, you can almost everything else. I just use a base (vita grow 3 part us water conditioner), VitaHormone, and silica. I used to use massive and w8, but the vita hormone replaces everything but aminos and carbs. Just looking for new cheaper source. Anyways, I'd try that stuff. KLP likes. I'll send pic tonight,
