I've heard good things from growers that I respect about Dyna-Gro, and my good friend runs Dyna-Gro as his base. It's a complete as well with all the 16 basic plant elements. http://www.dyna-gro.com/Website pdf Files/Foliage-Pro Sht 2011.pdf I'm still trying to figure out exactly what my lineup is gonna be. I'm debating running their foliage-pro (normally a veg type food) all through flower, and supplement PK with their Mag-Pro, or switch to their bloom food. My buddy says I'm crazy to run Foliage-Pro all through flowering, but others have claimed good results doing so. I dunno.. Either way, I still have a shitload of Botanicare PureBlend Pro Bloom with is real good stuff, but isn't as hardcore as something like V+B of Dyna is. PureBlend is derived from organic elements, though not technically organic itself. Also, I love Liquid Kharma for the humic and fulvic acids, plus it's added goodies. The regiment is gonna consist of different combinations of the following, depending on weeks in bloom cycle:
Dyna-Grow Foilage-Pro
Dyna-Grow Mag-Pro
Dyna-Grow Pro-Tekt
Botanicare PureBlend Pro Bloom
Botanicare Instant Kharma
Home brew liquid carbs (Molasses, Agave Syrup, and Barley Malt Syrup) to feed some kind of mycorrhizae innoculation (just ran out of great white)

I was thinkin when i get the money i might try the Dyna-Grow.....i like it a little more cuz its easier to get the exact N-P-K you want...im gonna do a side by side with those two in the future i think.

Also the way V+B is you should be able to run the foliage from DG if V+B can...i think it'll work 100%

Just email them and ask for a couple of samples of their products, and they should be at your door within a week.
I'm of the opinion that ST is BS. I love the stuff in Liquid Kharma. I've been big on using kelp to feed plants for a long time now. Twenty years ago I used to collect kelp at the beach to throw in the compost pile. Did you know that kelp can grow up to one linear foot a day! It's packed with natural growth hormones. Fulvic acid ain't no joke either.

Hell yeah bro i'll ask for their lineup samples...didn't know they gave any lol. I may be able to do a side by side sooner than i thought, thank you.
ST seems to work a lil but liquid karma is the better option hands down

hey i got a decent amount of this stuff, but stop using it because i really didn't see any difference in using it. what do you think about this product and what real significance have you seen to keep using it?

With which product? haven't used liquid karma yet but read up on it...the ST, nothin really above the soil is noticeable but below it does a lil somethin for the root system

Excessive calcium can cause nutrient uptake issues, and may manifest as a mag or P deficiency.

Well i hit calcium build up now and looks like a P deficiency, water leaf veins and stems are turning red/purple. I flushed my soil with distilled water until run off was clear. Then i added some nutes after flush...anything thing else you think i should do?

Oh im sure ph is fine...flushed with about 3 gallons of 6.5 ph water, then added a full dose of nutes when flush was done...she should be fine in a few, me and PJ were just talking about how our water has high calcium and you'd think hard water formula would contain less calcium. Just said i had 0 problems a few days ago...jinxed it damn lol. I should see improvement by today or tomorrow im thinkin
