Veg and Bloom Grow

[Chiggachamp]

i always read what cub and sum other say about the product and i even bumbed up my ppms to double what i was using and i still had calmag def...
so instead of adding more vb i am just goin to keep adding in calmag and 50 ppms of silica...
also i dont remember what u guys are running the vb in so that could be our problem.

Veg + Bloom's is derived from Calcium Nitrate and fifth on the list is Magnesium Sulfate . No wonder why its highly advised for Coco growers and newbies . Trick is to find each strains sweet spot ..

I have the hard water formula and run it from 1300-1600 ppm with no issues .. Not that impressed thus far myself being that Maxi grow is still a fraction of the price even with additives ..

I have run Veg+Bloom in soil, coco and now ProMix(peat) without issue from vegetative through flowering stages. I have found that strain EC will vary from 1.1-1.8 EC and that it is important to run 1/4 strength occasionally to prevent toxicity.
I have run the Maxi series and it did not produce the resin Veg+Bloom does. I also noticed significant improvement in ripening time with VB. I grow mostly for myself so quality is no. 1 in my grow. Proof is in the pictures

 

[ProfessorPotSnob]

Yes proof is in the photos but Maxi products consistently produce healthy plants and tons of resin at a fraction of the price . I am not one to bullshit and here is some proof of Maxi Bloom at work ..

I am running the same cut as shown and will be cross comparing , but none the less this strain will shine no matter the brand of nutrients used .. Genetics are first and foremost , then nutrients ..

No nute is going to make shit weed become Dank ... But no matter people will believe what they hear and read lmao ..

Yes but so far its just been you on many forums saying that. Not saying most people aren;t going to get good results would just be great to see others chiming in.

I dunno. My V+B only plant looks as good if not better than my control group (PureBlendPro, Instant Kharma, Hydroplex, Carbs) of the same G13 Haze clone.

Prof- I used Maxibloom for awhile as well so can attest to it being legit. I did need Cal Mag with it for sure though.

Grew this with veg+bloom along with some other organic additives.. vermifire soil.

I have always found florabloom capable of giving the plants what v+b lacks...works great IMO

Such as?

I have nothin but love for Gh and their products. Still a great product. Before V+B we were straight Maxibloom as our base with great success.

Mag/cal is in florabloom http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CC0QFjAA&url=http://www.generalhydroponics.com/genhydro_US/product_labels/florabloom_qt.pdf&ei=GTTmULezFYSjiAK7koHIBA&usg=AFQjCNEYeLR2CAVN-PKiF8cfjk3ZcAw-9g which is what most say v+b doesn't have enough of

IMO when your plants seem low on CalMAg with V+B you need to raise your PPM. Thats what i have found. When i took my plants to 1000ppm range they got id of the mag deficiency.

 

[robert030188]

Oh i don't have any deficiencies with cal/mag my baby is fine the florabloom is basically for P-K in my grow....im using plenty of v+b in mine...

 

[robert030188]

Yeah 1000ppm sounds good i've heard most say 1200-1600 ppm can be done

I never went above 1.5 to 1.6 EC last run in soil with 4 different strains and only showed a slight yellowing of my fan leaves the last week.Very solid buds with a lot of frost and never added anything but carbs.

1.2 would be our highest EC and the plants are all fine.

How does 1000ppm = 1.2 EC? I'm confused.

All right guys,I'm the newb here and know that this is strain dependent.Some are heavy feeders and some not.From my limited experience it looks like a solid base and if you have a plant with heavy needs you might need to add something,case closed.
