What pk booster is the best

[GROBRO6967]

I used remo for years. The astroflower cooks plants very easy.

I’m guessing Remo nutes isn’t ideal for a beginner that has no clue what he’s doing (me)

If you feed your plants correctly there is nothing to boost.

So I shouldn’t over do it basically

 

[ttystikk]

Most PK boosters use the nutrient double salt monopotassium phosphate, known as MKP, 0-52-32.

So just look for the best price for this nutrient.

Dealers choice man, but if fed correctly there should be no need to boost anything. P and K are already being fed.

I use Kool Bloom Dry. IMHO too much Phosphorous. I've begun mixing it with potassium sulfate to even out the PK ratio. You have to be really careful with the PK boosters - they can fry a plant quick, but they do work. I'd suggest using a TDS/PPM/EC meter if you plan to add a PK booster to you feeding schedule. I'd also start with ~10-20% of the recommended dose.

Also 14g dissolved into 100ml of water will make a nutrient concentration of MKP that increase EC by 0.1 when using 1ml per 1litre.

Haha will do

As I said I’m a beginner and I basically know fuck all

If this is the case then stick with your base nutrients and learn to grow a healthy plant start to finish using minimal nutrients.

ive been growing for around a decade and still only use minimal amounts of nutrients.

base A/B
Epsom salts
Calmag
minimal MKP

That’s it

if you bought the kit follow the directions
you can put a bit extra water in to dilute a bit or just mix a little weaker if your plants cant take full strength

If people read the labels on those shiny bottles they would realize that. But many don't bother reading the ingredients as they only read the name of the product and are convinced that Big Bad Bud Booster will give them huge increases in yields. They don't even realize they're paying $25 for 0.25¢ of actual ingredients.

This is the story of the water bottled nutes industry. The minute you learn even a little chemistry, you get pissed off at how much you've been ripped off!

Did you read the thread? Using PK booster is not adviceable by many, especially with dirt in containers. I would focus on supplementing sulfur instead. Either Epsom salt or low dose fish emulsion, then you also get all the amino acids from the fish hydrolysate.

It will do more for potency and quality than any "PK booster". Sulfur that is. Cheers!
