Hi, don't know about that line but from their website (CANNABOOST is an all natural carbohydrate based product but contains little sugar and zero added plant hormones.) My suggestion is on days of just watering you can incorporate molasses up until flush,just my $.02¢.Rhizotonic you can cut out, mainly to build a good root foundation.

i thought canna bost was parts of other plants and hormones didn't know it had carbs in there though that's good if it has , I heard that sugar is for for the bacteria but when using synthetic nutes like canna the bacteria gets burned a lot anyway

this is what canna says (Certainly, overloading your plants with phosphorous is not what a good booster product should do. Plant extracts on the other hand, whether crude, dried or fermented, have been shown to influence significantly certain aspects of plant growth, development and even plant health. These plant extracts are the building blocks of true boosters) but then it wants you to add p.k for a week boosting the phosphorous :/

Microbes love sugars as far as synthetics burning bacteria I couldn't say but if it is possible try using it during just water meaning no base just your additives e.g. water, molasses, and pk booster ph'd.

I have not give it a feed with out ant nutes yet atall and I am in week 6 of flower no ph or ppm probz yet either but I might try just sugar /molasses and pk for one feed , does the molasses make ppm rise?

I don't know why they cant handle more than 600/700 ppm aswell, I put 50 ml ( a )50 ml( b ) 60 ml cannazym 50ml canna boost and 30ml p.k all in a 36 litre drum ph it to 6, tap water of a ppm 70/80 , then I get a total ppm of 650, anything more than 650 and the tips slightly warned me of burns ,do you think they are lacking food with this ppm total , I do water every day until a little runoff , and I am in 60/40 cocohydro in 5 gal pots , it is just that my buds seem to be taking long to develop but they do look like they have a big long structure , the seed bag said 62 days . I hope that ment just flower time

Well if you just water then you can probably do without the pk or cut it in half according to their instructions of overloading. Its good to read the plants if they look healthy then keep ppms at that range. Bud size and finish depends on strain specially if this is your first run with them. They will swell up more towards the final stage unless its a small yielding strain, as far as finishing at 62 days you probably can or give 5-10 days more, if you scope the triches then you can see for yourself when it is best to cut down.

As for the strains I have Hindu Kush , blue og , white wid X bubblegum, white wid X haze

quite a few strains, i'm sure they all have different feedings and harvest times, you just need to document what each one likes and doesn't like by running multiple times. Once you figure out then you will know which is better for you.

Stick with just the Flores and rhizo to be safe, pk is too hot and boost is a rip off.
Also wait till there is almost no hairs left to get the fattest hardest buds.

Do yo think rhizotonic or canazym add weight to the bud ? Or are these just for the root system

The zyme is for the roots. It breaks down cellulose that the roots shed as they grow. That in turn, in a minor way, feeds the plant.

Rhizotonic, is for the roots in veg. Makes them bigger faster. Want to do it better and faster, for less money? Use kelp extract instead.
