Bud Blood Test - Nutrients and Fertilizers - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

NFR · 01-20-2010, 03:55 AM

I have a opportunity to run a little test in my grow and share the results with you.

I have a grow split into two stadiums. Right now one chamber has bigger plants that vegged longer with many pruned down mother in it as well. This chamber has plants in it for the most part that are past what size is manageable on my shelf system. After the trasition stretch, it's going to be a jungle.

The other room has mostly plants vegged the exact size I like with some under developed ones thrown in the non optimum areas. After the rooms fill out some, of these weaklings get culled and the space gets used up wisely.

Both chambers run on the same system/timing and are now 4 days into the 12/12 cycle. I'm going to give Bud Blood to the over vegged room only and see which room finishes it's transition into full bloom sooner. I will also take notes on maturity time even though both rooms will have to be harvested at the same time.

This won't be a very comprehensive and thorough test of any product. It going to be done in revelence to my situation only so take the results for what they are worth. I will provide some pics after I feed. If you are unaware of my system, instead of asking me here you can search HP STADIUM and get an idea of some of my grows. Theres many questions answered on there.

I gave one of my rooms a dose of Bud Blood last night.

Right Room

Left Room

This is not a test where I run Bud Blood with a whole AN feed reg. I keep my feeding simple. Usually GH 3 part base and a few additives and my ppm rarely goes above 1000ppm.
For *this* feed I used the recomended transition feed... 2/2/2 parts to 120 L of RO water. The second rez was simply the 3 part GH mixed 2/2/2. The PPM with Bud Blood added was 970 ppm ph'd at 6.3. I mixed 40gr to the rez. This was a free sample.

My rooms had been in Veg/24h light for 2 weeks the flipped 4 days ago to 12hr. The right hand room is full of plants that have been vegged under T5 light banks and are way too far ahaead of the L room. I'm going to post a pick of a few plants every 48 hours or as things develope. This stage of my test will be over once the rooms finish their transition phase which for me is usuallly 2 weeks.

wouldnt a true test be to use 2 equal sized sized stadiums and add bud blood to 1, and not bud blood on the other? over filling the area will result in smaller yeilds as will shortening the time. As an ex AN tech rep, I can tell you I wouldn't use bud blood unless the strains you grow are 100% equatorial and take no less than 12-16 weeks and grow 10'. why add a bloom stimulant when there are no buds present? want to control stretch? cut out the grow in grow micro bloom ferts. don't use b vits the first week of bloom either.

But, Toohigh...

Accdg to AN's schedule, Bud Blood is ONLY for the first week of 12/12...

Please tell us more...! Thx...

You were a rep for AN?

I'm using bud blood in the *first week* like they suggest...before the buds show! These are *two equal size stadiums* with bud blood *only in one*. The room that was over filled isnt too crowded at the beginning of the test. I've now started to spread the plants among the two rooms and the ones with bud blood are marked.

AN suggest using these things during the times I am using them. You were a rep for AN I ask again? It appears you are not aware of what the products are used for. Odd....

I'm going to post now about how the stretch was nowhere near what it usually is in my rooms with my strains....
