Bloom boosters and potency question

Do bloom boosters increase or decrease potency when using right without burning plants and overfeed them? Anyone do side by side with same clone same environment? My plants always comes spectacular after hit them late in flower. Huge chunky nugs covered with cristals, trichomes poping overnight. I just wondering is this decrease or increase their potency?
Or this doesn't matter and potency is mostly genetically based.
Many thanks for answers.

Try a run with the same plants/strain without the booster and see if their is an increase or decrease in trichomes. Then you'll know. What booster are you using?

Only to the extent that deficiencies were limiting genetic potential. But what do I know? I'm a dufous.

I run mostly seeds and keep clones just if something is outstanding. Don't have space to run side by side. I use different brands pk boosters what I have on hand.

Well, then write down what you harvest and compare it with your next/last grow.

It's mostly genetically based, but a perfect grow will always be more potent than a mediocre one. If the bloom booster achieves the desired result of more trichs then yes, it will be more potent.
