[monstagonja]

I haven't, but the point is to give your plant one swift kick in the ass during the flush without the salt build up, so your plants keep ripening with force throughout their starvation. Good things babe.

It can't hurt.

I used to use all the expensive additves they want to sel us. but I now just Use the basic 3 part solution stand alone, maybe add some molasas. I did a couple sise by sides a few years ago, had 2 seperat 5x5 grow areas nder 1k lights, used GH flora on one side and used gh flora and all the additives on the other, there was no noticable differnence, if i had to lean one way or the other i woulda said thgh standalone did better. so, from there on out ive stuck with flora stand-alone with some cheap hoome grown additive.

so im guessing u grow dwc style. and the molasses that wouldnt be a good idea since it can clog my gh dwc buckets. i too use gh flora. its cheap but works outstanding. molasses does sound good a easy affordable way for carbs

molasses is AWESOME for the buds. theres definitely a noticeable difference for me in the speed of growth and the fatness of the buds after starting molasses on the plants. but i've never done any type of real comparison because i've always used molasses. but in my last grow i didnt get it added in right away because i didnt have any...but after adding it there was quite a nice growth spurt. I agree that molasses isnt good for hydro type grows though, just soil grows

Good to hear cause I have a friend that uses all kinds of different expensive ass additives makes me feel like I'm missing something sometimes. I am also running the 3 part Flora series but I'm on my first grow and only a few weeks into flower so I don't know what kinda results I'll get from them. This info makes me feel a bit better.

I use Carbo Load,,and your supposed to use it from 1st week of flower,,till 2nd last week of flower,,check the Nutrients Calculator on Advanced's site,,,I've always used it so I can't say it does or doesn't,,,but it can't hurt

I love using plain old seaweed concentrate... so gentle, I can feed it to seedlings, yet I get fat nuggies with very shitty soil.

i thought carbo load was fine to use even during the flushing since it suppose to add flavor and aroma. im in my fourth week of flower and according to the grow bible if u add sucrose to your plants aka molasses or artifical sucrose your plants will produce bigger buds
