Golden Tree Journal- Canna Boost Alternative

Its ridiculous you pay so much for a gallon of boost, here its some €130 for 5litres.
On the other hand I got burned pretty bad one time ordering nutes from USA, shipping costs were bad enough then they decided to make me pay some crazy import taxes, wtf.

I looked at this product I don't know what is in it and is it safe for consumption a call to the company headquarters confirmed they wont say either. Can you say Triacontanol in polysorbate 20, "Which has been FDA approved for wheat" I wont use if they wont disclose what is in it. Takes away the medical aspect to growing I grow for nerve conditions so any product has to be known of it's ingredients. For me while getting the most out of my grow the quality and composition of the plant are paramount above anything else. Best of luck with your gamble

Nice to see this test. I use a lot of cnna boost here might have to give golden tree a try. Any one running that stuff indoor here?

Subbed, I am thinking of using this for it's sheer simplicity ?

DO IT
KISS
Keep It Simple, Stupid

plus... it seems to work! WTF!!!



Just last week I got a 1/2 gallon size sample to try out but was unsure, now that i read what Greyskull said i might give it a go? Whatcha say Greyskull

You got a 1/2 sample!
and you are unsure?
you can send it to me, I will use the shit out of it.
Try it... you might like it

if you like Canna type results, this is right up your alley.

Glad to hear you liked the results. Do you have anything over the top of your grow like plastic sheeting or something to help with the weather?

there's a 14mil clear tarp over the cage and down the sides some....
the "front" and "back" of the cage are open to allow for airflow
keeps the temps down
and the humidity, too

but, because of how the wind comes off the mountain sideways, when theres water in the air too, it also gets thrown sideways
its a challenge but oh well
i try to deal with it best i can

I feel like Ben was pretty straight forward when I have spoken with him
he mentioned to me it was made from organic ingredients (i didn't ask "what?") and it's use would not make an otherwise "organic" grow "not organic".

Apparently OMRI is a pretty pricey certification to obtain.
Maybe thats a sales angle.
Or... maybe its true.
OR.... maybe they are using the truth as part of their marketing scheme??? Gotta turn over all the stones, right?

I don't feel like trying Golden Tree was a gamble - it was simply a first hand learning experience. That I could use something other than Canna Boost, and get the same Canna Boost results. I wasn't riding the house on GT, Boom or Bust...

good luck with your nerves

Howzit L-B!
get a little bottle and try it homie! just in flower...
you could listen to me but fuck that Im a dumbass

I may have mentioned earlier... I feel like fresh nutes delivered DTW is the way to roll with Golden Tree.




Oh, btw, after haircuts the 5 Chem D plants produces 33oz of primo Chem D goodness, plus an additional 190g of trim material and larf deemed unfit for others pipes, bowls, and papers. And apparently the ChemD was pretty good, as it is all gone and requests for more have been sadly turned away.

This thread inspired me to try it out. I bought a half gallon. So far it has stacked more nodes than usual and my veg plants look better. I'm two weeks into flower on some nine week strains. I will report back on the results.

cool man, I never coined up for boost, but I love canna's base nutes...I have been wanting to see some results on this stuff...it definitely doesn't look quite as photogenic as the boost pic but all that really matters is the finished look in that sense. might have to give it a try especially for the price of it.
 
So you guys seen good results using vers not using it?

Yes, not a huge difference, but the buds shine more and seem a little denser. I only used them in last half of flower.

The plants Ive used it on since veg are a little healthier and look better.


I don't use supplements so I can't say if something similar and cheaper would do the same, but it does do something.

So does this stuff replace rhizo, zym, and boost?

i got the 7oz sample of it and its got a fish smell to it. not super strong but strong enuff that i cant use it in my outdoor guerilla plots. im gonna be growing 2 autos here at the house so i figured i would try it out. i also got a free sample of floracious plus from GH. i will use these on the 2 autos just to see what differences can be made. i know it wont be a side by side the proper way but i dont mind just want to do it for fun to see who wins
