Well It's once again time to buy some new ferts. I've been using PBP with really good results, but I'm willing to try something new and hopefully better. I've been looking at the Advanced Nutes "Big Bud" but I don't really know anything about it. Anyone have any first hand experienec with that? Something else that has given you good results? Oh ya, all organic only!

I've used Old Age Organics with stellar sucess.Last year added FF big bloom to the tail-end of bloom..very low npk numbers,,expensive for how quick you can use it up..BUT I swear..it definately enhanced final resin production. I've been growing the same strain for years..and the proof was in the puddin..Like gum on a shoe.This season using FF tIGER with Budswel in conjunction..then I'll use the big bloom again at the end. Kinda like to use different products periodically,just hoping to find the magic bullett,so to speak.Oh yeah lots of Bat tea aswell..you're plants let you know when they need it...good luck!!

I am using Dutch Nutrient Formula nutes with foxfarm ocean soil and foxfarm soluables, and cant complain, but when I run out (which would be like 10 friggin grows) I will go foxfarm, I just like simple to follow schedule and american measurements for instructions (sorry, i know that sounds real bad)

Skunkstein, has the right mix .. a little FF and some bat tea. The plants will love you for it. Have been using FF for about 10 years

Hmmm, I bought some FF and wasn't impressed with it. After one grow I switched to PBP and sold the FF to a buddy who also grows and he doesn't like it either. Maybe we got a bad batch or something...

At the end of next week,will have completed a indoor grow that I mentored.The veg.was pretty much done in my usual veg. soil mix.When the lights were flipped,we used FF tIGER/0-7-0 Liquid Budswel together,and Liquid Karma. After a couple doses of the budswell, I went running back to the ff big bloom.I can't really express how much I like this stuff! But I can swear it only does Good for the final product. Now the Tiger,for my strain,it could probably use a touch more N.We got some yellowing on the lower fan leaves alittle earlier than usual..in the last couple weeks that's normal,jus not so photo- genic.I really need to find a fert with a 3 or 4 for the N.I've used Age old Alot..it;s great stuff but seems to produce a bit too much leaf in the last stages.There is a new Guano around lately that looks similar to Soma's KaLONG, IT'S NUMBERS are 2-15-?..really expensive though.All and all, it's really hard to knock most of the ferts out there,you just really need to spend time dialing the proper dosage and timing. The most useful thing I've ever done is kept a daily journal of ALL events.A log book will help in so many ways. It's so nice to look back at the mistakes and how they were dealt with..the tracking of growth,ferts,watering,temps,it 's all so reassuring in those moments of Pure Panic. Sorry Folks, I'm just Rambling to myself...I forgot the initial question....

Skunk,

I would suggest maybe Neptunes Harvest 2-4-1. Organic and has a low N for the end of flowering.

Just my dos centavos

Just my dos centavos minds_I __________________ His contempt for objective truth is the rejection of democratic accountability, an implicit demand that his supporters place undying faith in him.
