confused....

'Fluff' could be the result of over or under watering, over or under feeding, your genetics, and/or your lighting. The 3 part you're working with now is a copy of GH's 3 part which is something I've been using for years. That 3 part formula does not grow 'fluff'. Maybe if you post your feeding schedule, we'll be able to help you dial in something that works a little better instead of recommending more products.

sure, i was using the 3part AN every watering thru the entire process,
and i was watering once weekly so they were getting about 3-4 galons of water once a week.

ive been told recently that i should be watering every 2 or 3 days, and ive moved into smaller pots so this should be easier for me judge.


oh, i was also using tarantula and piranha the entire time which i recently found out i should be only using the first few weeks of flower. (right?)

thanks guys!

i dont really think ive gone in the opposite direction of everyones advice, maybe i went in the opposite direction of your advice :O

but.. i am really trying to avoid the FLUFF i just harvested =/

i mean if Big Bloom is only guano castings and kelp... will it fuck with my npk?
FFs website says that big bloom will NOT burn any plant....

im not trying to ignore anyones advice, plz dont take it that way

thx

0.01-0.3-0.7 is very low, especially on nitrogen. in short, you would need a lot more of it to burn plants than the 6-4-4 grow big, or 2-8-4 tiger bloom.

I would take this as an indication that there is something else behind your results. I don't use all this bud booster stuff. I don't even use a 3 part mix. In veg I feed as much FF grow-big as I can without burning, and in flower I taper over to the recommended dosage of tiger bloom. I have no problem growing tight dense colas. Perhaps if I started carb loading I could get them a bit larger, but I'd also have to start paying attention to bacteria cultures and might as well go back to growing organic... In short all the chemicals are not needed, and if you have issues with what you are producing no amount of added food is going to make up for whatever your real issue is. This is a game of bottlenecks, without identifying your bottleneck you're kinda shooting in the dark.
