Bloom ferts, what do you use? - Indoor Grows - Soil - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

gift of gab · 09-10-2004, 11:17 AM

In a few days Im going to be blooming my first grow. Thus far, I have been using GH nutes, the hydro ones. As this is my first grow, I have made alot of mistakes. For example, I didn't know that the grow part of the GH nutes is not used by cannabis. Now I know, after hearing all these people say they use the lucas formula. I finally read up on the lucas formula, and thats when I read that you dont' need the green grow part of the GH nutes for cannabis...

anyway, back to the topic at hand...

I will be purchasing some ferts very shortly, and I want your opinions. What is best, what do you use, ect ect ect.

Also, any bloom additives, such as floricious (sp) that you use, feel free to shed light on those.

BTW, please keep it organic. I already have some GH nutes, as I said, so I want to compare the organic to the synthetic eventually. Also, please LMK what you use for veg and bloom.

Peace

Well I didn't vote in the poll but... I use Guano Tea. Veg - I use an 8-4-1 bat guano supplemented by FoxFarmOrganics grow big rated at 3-2-6 (I think this has been replaced in their line). Bloom-I use a 3-10-1 bat guano supplemented by the same until the last 3 weeks then it's just the guano for a week - ten days and a good flush for the last week or so. For both cycles I use Thrive Alive Organic B-1(green label) in damn near every drop of water at 5ml per gallon until the last 2 weeks. I vary the strength of the tea raising the concentration peaking at mid cycle and for the change over I use a weak version with both types of guano. My medium is 40%CoCo Pith , 20%Worm Castings and 40%Perlite.

I have a lot of organic ferts (pic in my gallery) i like.Its just hard to pick one as a fav. I like pure blend pro bloom with liquid karma. cal-mag and top max for the first 4 weeks or so.Then i use earth juice bloom (after bubbleing for 24 hrs.) and top max for the last weeks with the last 3 or 4 feedings to be just water.

Personally I use Plagron Alga-Bloom, 100% bio and does wonders, made with seaweed extracts and lots of other neat stuff. They have an entire line of specific products for marijuana cultivation, all entirely organic and all of them excellent products.

I made the trip to the hydro shop today, and was somewhat disapointed with the selection. :( I ended up leaving with some Pure Blend.
Anything I should supplement along with the pure blend for my bloom cycle?
