Rainbow Mix Bloom is also a good guano for bloom, its also mixed with kelp meal and benificial fungi.
.
Yes.. Well made stuff. If top dressed in at about week 4 or 5 of veggie growth - it soaks in nice & pumps up the buddage.... I can not say enought good things about mycorrizal fungi. :hump:

That is correct. Four times the normal dose, water in day 1, wait 7 days, water in again. It will stop or slow down flowering so much, veggie growth will exceed, flowering. All this ends up costing you is an extra week . Allowing the plant to put on a bit more weight (leaves :leaf: ) to feed the buds. bongsmilie

Cool,thanks OSG. No threat of turning hermie??:peace:
.
No... The only way they could turn hermie is if that trait was in their gentics. If that were the case, you would have had a hermie in the past. If you are dealing with known gentics (same seeds or seeds from the same gentic line), and have never had one (a hermie) in the past - the chances are as close to zero as you can get.
The only absolutes in this life - Taxes & Death. :hump:

No.. It will not effect the yield, if you allow it to grow for one extra week. That week was the price you paid for slowing down or stopping the flowering response. With the ST overload. Give it that extra week and you will get more than you were going to get - given the condition your ladies were in.

The Carnivorous Plant FAQ: About SUPERthrive

Superthrive is shit, it has no place in my organic grow.
No disrespect intended.
Edit: But I do dig my high P Guano from Fox Farms. (OMG did I just use a corprate name, I need to go gather leaves for my mulch pile) must have been the trip to the hydro store for myccorizal fungi, 2lb for 35$, I talked him down 3 bucks man, he was putty in my hands I tell ya, putty. Had enough left over to buy an air pump for 12$ the cheapest I've seen on the Net or the pet shops, go figure.

Thanks again OSG,much appreciated!!!!!!!

Your welcome.. Glad to help anytime. I have to agree with the post above this one. SuperThrive - is not exactly organic; but sometimes desperate situations require desperate action.

Give them 1/2 stregth grow fertilizer (higher N) for the next two waterings/feedings. Then switch back to a bloom fertilizer (higher P) after that.
This will encourge some more veggie growth, then it will be a quick (will - happen overnight) switch in 7-10 days back to flowering. The growth should be pretty intense, if the plant is healthy.
If, you don't see a surge in growth (new leaves), the plant still has a better chance of bushing up, during flowering, with the additional auxins (from the ST) & N from the two 1/2 strength grow waterings/feedings.

I went to my hydro store and bought "budswell" by the guano company.
I have some and my question is how to use it simply. I don't have a bubbler or anything like that. Can I put it in the water a day early, keep the top off, shake it a few times, then add the other nutes I use and feed that way?

Also, I will be transplanting to larger pot when they start to flower. I thought about adding a few tablespoons per gallon of soil. Would that be effective, optimal, or always better to use as part of my regular feedings with water?

VirginHarvester...Please don't put super thrive into your soil before flowering. It's more of a growth (veggie growth) stimulant. I just advised Mendojuana on a cheap trick for plants that made the switch too soon. Not advised for healthy, fully developed girls... I hope I posted this in time... P.S. - I replied to a couple of your posts..

I think he's talking about the guano tea OSG,sorry for getting this post off track guys.....
.
Yes.. now I see. I was just a little to stoned the first time I read that one.
.
Guano tea - mix 2 to 4 tablepoons to a gallon of chlorine free water, agitate, let sit over night, agitate again, & water in. But you must split this gallon up between four or more plants. It's too powerful for just one.
.
To mix in soil, two teaspoons per gallon of soil, every two weeks, is safe & effective.
.
Hope that helps... Remember start low & build as you go. Overfertilizering is a SIN....

So this high phos quano I have is "bio available" immediately?

Can it be the primary source of phosphorus in flowering using it with water and some other nutes? I have organic potassium and was thinking the last month of flowering I might only need guano, potassium, and molasses.

Ohsogreen, you answered another question about molasses. Could I mix molasses and guano in water a couple days before feedings, pour it back and forth between containers to oxygenate and then feed the plants with it? Last year I tried putting the guano in the water at least a few hours before feeding and shaking it up quite a bit, thinking that would release the phos in the water. I'm assuming the pellets or 'guano dirt' doesn't wash down to the roots so was trying to get it right so the phos didn't just sit up on top of the pot never reaching roots.

Thanks.
