Humbolt Nutrients Big Up Powder?

I just picked some of this up to use in place of Canna's Bio Boost, I'm using Canna's nutes but the Boost is just too much $ for me to justify without trying something else. I've tried Boost and so far it's not worth the $100/bottle (I got the small $40 one and used it on my last grow). I wanted something to increase bud size, you know a real bud "boost", so I'm hoping this works. Has anyone tried it outside of the Humboldt line yet?
 
i use big ups powder in conjunction with Ginormous. Ginormous from weeks 3-5 and bug ups from weeks 5-8 with molasses and a few other additives. I swear by big ups it is solid but if you use it too soon it will turn your fan leaves yellow quick so you want to wait until your flowers are set. I was also looking into Cha-ching but I wasnt sure if it was a flower hardener as welll as a tricome producer or if it was just good for tricome production.

Older post, but i had a question if anyone has an answer.
I'm going to use big up powder after i flip the lights this friday, should i wait a week or so til i use it so it doesn't yellow my leaves to fast, i'm gonna run Humboldt Nutes Verde for the first week or so into bloom to give it that lil' extra N boost going into bloom, do you think that the Verde will help compensate for the strength of the Big Up Powder???

IMO i think cha ching is crap. We are in the organic section right? Then why would you use cha ching? It destroys microbes and adds a bunch of unnessary salts. Also with the chelated iron, zinc and all the other stuff in it, it can burn plants very bad

I run the whole line, big up will make ur buds rock hard.Use it the 1st wk and then wk 6-7.I would not use verde ur 1st wk of flower ur gona trick ur plant into thnkn its still veggin with the high amount of nitrogen in it.Jus stick to there feed sched,if u knw what ur doin u can modify the schedule by adding more/less of there nutes.PPM pen will help u out alot.
