They always say on videos to check out the FB groups but I don't ever see anything near what is discussed here....I don't do FB much anyways. Was happy to find this though. Most people want to keep their methods to themselves, and just giveaway bits and pieces. Even at my grow store, the workers ask me about NECTAR uses. A lot of them run the whole line but not BK....crazy.....I'm always happy to help. A lot the times it helps solve something I might be dealing with.

Just curious, what do you consider the 'key times' during flowering? I've been giving my plants 2tblsp of BK every other feed since I switched to flowering (4 weeks ago)
I've been following the 'Advanced' regimen schedule pretty carefully.

Also has anyone used 'Mother of All Blooms' with NFTG? 0-52-32 ratio, the instructions say for early flowering 1tsp per 5 gallons, and 2tsp for late flowering. Last week I added a really small amount, maybe 1/4th of a tablespoon and a lot of the tips of the fan leaves turned brown. Not sure if this is because I used too much or it just doesn't mix well with this nutrient line.

DoubleX- you want to stay away from those type of bloom boosters, just asking for trouble!! And run your BK in every feed according to how much herculean harvest your up to. Its a 1 to 6 ratio.....so 1 tsp. BK to 2 Tbs HERC. Then build up from there. Once you start using it, you don't want to stop. That is your bloom booster!! The salts in the MOAB will lock out all kinds of stuff in the NECTAR, PK boosters are not for this line.....I'm sure some do but with some serious trial and error.
indica / blueberry .. last run ... gonna do gorilla skittlez next and depends how that run goes im gonna run with it for awhile....

Wow, just got back from the store with four bottles of NFTG... Excited to start using it, I'm switching from Fox Farm Trio. I'm in week four flower, any advice before I start? I would think a flush of some sort to wash away the salts I've been using so far... Plants are doing stellar, so I hate to mess anything up...

All stages start to finish have there key points but to break it down simply, most of the stages in this fast growing plant happen in 2 week intervals. So the last 2 weeks of VEG is a key point to start using BK foliars, knowing this....in the weeks prior you want build the calcium in the root zone up, simultaneously building the plants nectar metabolism. Then you FLIP, this is roughly another 2 week timeline where you are doing the same but building even more calcium up and foliar BK till you get to the point that BK is to be drenched. Week 3 to 4 bloom, next key point--flower set!!--should be around 4 TBS Herc now and only 2 tsp BK. This is a safe way to go about it, of course with all the other calcium sources in the line, if using, the BK can be played with a little, but it is potent stuff and doesn't take much to get the calcium pumping into the plant!! So just continue through bloom building up as the plant takes it!! Week 5 to 6 stack/bulk, start downshifting a little in week 7, then ripen/flush. Keep it simple, break up the entire grow in 2 week intervals, apply at a minimum 1 tea in each interval and just watch how the plant responds, you will know when you hit the GAS, maintain, or back off!!

What bottles and what stage of growth?

Awesome, thanks for the quick reaponse. I guess I'll stop using this stuff. I used it on my last grow and I think the nutrient lockout happened because my buds did not grow much larger in the last 3 weeks.

Nice, I almost called it a Blueberry, the long petioles was what made me think that!!

Nice, I'm 4 weeks into flowering now, all Indica strains. Sounds like I'm on track.

Yes, but 2 Tbs. Seems a bit much? I'm curious to know how they take it, I've never got that high with it.
1st..when switching to NFTG nutrients do a slurry test of your soil ,prefered soil is #4.
2. must do a flush from the salts in the soil either Herc or SLF100 ... soil ppm300-500 / ph 6.3-6.5 veg / 6.5 - 6.9 flower.
3. then after all that then you start introducing nectar ... this mite take a week or 2 to do the switch /tranfer ...

They have been handling it very well. I fed on Sunday, checked back on Wednesday and some of my colas gained several inches of height. They are exploding with growth. The buds are about the same size as my last harvest when I chopped it, pretty crazy how the week 4 buds are bigger than buds of my old harvest at 8 weeks. I'm curious to see how huge they get in a month from now.
I have also added Mega Morpheus recently and my plants seem to love it.
The only bottles I am missing are Hygeia Hydration, Triton's Trawl, Poseidonzyme, The Kraken, and Pegasus Potion. Do you think these are worth adding to my regimen?
advice... start using nectar on the next run.. do not switch in this stage , what soil are you using ?

I didn't catch the week 4, sorry, I would do 2 TBS Herc ph to 6.4, then when they are ready for next watering....do a slurry first. Get in range like Bubba just said.....Flush again if high still, if in range, I recommend a GAIA feed/flush at 2 Tbs. Ph 6.4. Its so gentle, and will tie up more salts and introduce some food. Like bubba said too, prolly 2 weeks for the plant to adjust to new feed, just force it or it could be longer.
Hygeia I don't use at full strength .. TT good for the "fall colors" , Kraken is a good stock builder , Pegasus Potion builds the oils ... Poseidonzyme helps with health of plant , "kelp" can either be root drench or foliar in veg...
