    Bud Blood / MoaB VS late-stage PK boosters?

    I actually have a bottle of Big Bud lying around. Do you use any other nutes alongside with it?

    Bud Blood / MoaB VS late-stage PK boosters?

    Thanks! How about Bud Blood though? Big Bud is an additive in weeks 3 & 4 of bloom AFAIK, whereas Bud Blood is an additive for weeks 1 & 2? I spoke to my local hydro guy and he mentioned that the difference is actually not listed in the ingredients - supposedly hormones are added to Bud Blood...

    Bud Blood / MoaB VS late-stage PK boosters?

    I appreciate your guys' input, but I'm looking for feedback from people who don't come from your school of thought and actually use these nutrients :)

    Liquid Karma = Liquid Death?

    I didn't mention any test of any kind. I'm talking about my personal experience / observation / comparisons. No scientific method here, never claimed to have one.

    HELP!! First grow, Perfect to dying overnight!

    BTW - the more stable watering schedules should also help with that low humidity. Maintaining a more stable supply of water in the environment should naturally raise that humidity and keep it stable.

    HELP!! First grow, Perfect to dying overnight!

    Additional details would be helpful, such as: - Pot size (looks like a 5 gallon maybe, but don't make us guess) - Define size of "full water bottle". Water bottles come in a dozen different sizes, from a tiny 4oz bottles to a 2.5 gallon bottle. - Temperature at canopy level (not in a corner or...

    Liquid Karma = Liquid Death?

    This thread is a joke right? Liquid Karma has been one of the few additives that clearly shows immediate results (I use it to help during any time of stress). Has proven itself to be better than Floralicious Plus, which is supposed to be an even more potent alternative.

    HELP!! First grow, Perfect to dying overnight!

    That looks like an overwatered plant. Top of your growing medium looks moist, so it doesn't seem like underwatering is the issue. It's possible your buddy is being overzealous with watering - a common mistake for inexperienced growers - this is how I learned about this issue myself :) Most...

    HELP!! First grow, Perfect to dying overnight!

    You should provide other details, such as your growing medium, your watering frequency, nute lineup, temperature, humidity, etc. That really just looks like an overwatered plant. Tell your buddy to hold off the water for the next 24 hours and see how the plant responds. Why are you vegging it...

    Bud Blood / MoaB VS late-stage PK boosters?

    In fact! I just realized MoaB can be used for both, per their site's product description! http://www.madfarmerproducts.com/m-o-a-b/ So is it reasonable to expect that KoolBloom powder can be used in the first week as well as the last 2 weeks? Obviously the reason I ask is because KB powder is...

    Bud Blood / MoaB VS late-stage PK boosters?

    Hey all, Forgive me if this is a newbie question :) Why not use something like KoolBloom powder instead of Bud Blood/MoaB in the first 2 weeks of flower? The products are both high in PK - so what is the difference? Ingredients: BudBlood: Potassium sulfate, potassium phosphate and magnesium...

    Late-bloom period - PPM vs Suggested Dosages

    Thanks for the input! Question for your third point.. I perform the flush out of courtesy to the smokers (I don't smoke myself) to give them less harshness & fewer/no chemicals. Are you suggesting flushing is a waste in regards those two? (and if yes, would me feeding up to harvest increase yield?)

    Late-bloom period - PPM vs Suggested Dosages

    I also recently started adding Avalanche to hard Thing is, my yields are nowhere near that high - I'm lucky if I get a pound a lamp. There are other factors at play for that, but I do wonder if I can make up some of the lost weight by staying at the higher end of PPMs. The plants certainly are...

    Late-bloom period - PPM vs Suggested Dosages

    Hey folks, wanted to pick your brains on the following dilemma I'm facing in second half of bloom. When I mix in most of my nutes at recommended dosages (not even conservative), the solutions ends up being around 900 PPMs. This is well short of the recommended 1200PPMs a lot of growers target at...

    Algae prevention alternative to coco covers?

    lol sorry I think I read that as "hey" originally, never thought of hay as a cover :) do you ever get any rot or any other issues I might not foresee with hay? Do you just use any hay?

    Algae prevention alternative to coco covers?

    Do you simply pour the tupur on top of the rockwool in a pot? Does it add any pH or nutrient variation?

    Algae prevention alternative to coco covers?

    The coco covers are pretty pricey at over $1 apiece. Anyone use any alternatives? This would be for hand-watering rockwool, so the water does need to make its way through the cover..

    Air Cooled Hoods for Temp Control

    It looks like 250CFM per light is the recommended standard, so the fan pushing the air should be about 1500 CFMs?

    Air Cooled Hoods for Temp Control

    Thanks for this! Any idea how powerful of a fan I would need to blow hard enough for 6 hoods? Also, not sure what he means by "use reflectors with 6 inch cooling connected to 8 inch, 10 inch, or 12 inch ventilation", do you know?

    Air Cooled Hoods for Temp Control

    So that's my feeling as well. But I gotta sell my significant other on this 'investment' in order to go through with it. Which is why I kinda wanted to get actual numbers from people w/experience. Almost any numbers would work - electric bill dollar amounts with VS without, temperature #s with...
