Best Bud Booster
- Thread starter SMOKE-ONE
- Start date
The best 'booster' is very dependent on the NPK ratio of your base nutrients and your growing method.
W/o getting into arguments over the whole "use boosters or not" endless masturbation diatribe, I have found the following "boosters" to benefit ME, this is JUST my experience ...noone elses, you can see about 2 years of my efforts in the vertical section under my thread their if your so inclined.I have used these in vertical grow using soil and CoCo (currently pure CoCo)
1) M.O.A.B - Mother of All Blooms - Mad Farmer
2) KoolBloom - GH
3) Beastiez Bloom - FoxFarm
I have used all 3 and have had good success I am currently using Koolbloom (indoor only) because I am trying to reduce my Nitrogen during flowering phase and it has a low N factor.
Good luck to you!

I used to use 'boosters' with non-hydro growing methods and to be honest, all they wound up doing is inducing premature leaf-drop as non of them supply enough nitrogen to support healthy leaves.
Now I use base nutes only (roughly an NPK ratio of 1-1-1) and since leaves drive production, my one goal is to keep them green and intact which has resulted in better yields than any booster ever gave me. So whatever product you decide on, keep those leaves healthy!
I can say with 100% certainty that using a booster will increase your yield.. Anyone that does not see improvement has something going on thats preventing that from occurring.. Hydroplex or Canna pk 13/14 are not snake oil bogus additives. They do what they are suppose to do if you know how to use them.
I use Grotek monster bloom, 12 bucks for the same thing that cost 89 bucks with fancy graphics.

Sometime im in coco sometime im in 50/50 sometime im not. Right now im not im in FFOF/FFHF/FFLW. All mixed together. Hydroplex is not fro hydro is for coco and soil mediums..
I use the dry version and I LOVE it!
^BLOOM FUCKING BASTIC
Although I was recently given H&G's Top Shooter and since I'm going to be running their line I may give it a shot.
But to be honest the bloombastic has been my favorite to date and I feel it's better than kool bloom which I had been my go to for years with great results. If you're on a budget I'd say Kool Bloom not questions, but if you can splurge and get a bottle of Bloombastic I'd be surprised if you weren't happy.
Have fun and grow big.
