Roots Organic

Good evening everyone,
Just a quick overview;
bubbleponics all the way, 1 Afghan, 1 galaxy god bud, 2 elephant bud with two 400 watt sunsystems. With one week in I already started at 1/4 mixed into one gallon of distilled.

I just recently stopped by my local hydro store and was surprised to find they carry “Roots Organic” fertilizer. Well, I went ahead and picked up a four part set-up that I figured would provide good results. I ended up grabbing:

Roots Organics Trinity Catalyst (.1-.5-.25) is specially designed for maximum benefit as a plant and rhizosphere catalyst. With its proprietary recipe of distinct ingredients, Roots Organics Trinity Catalyst works as a universal additive for both grow and bloom cycles. A unique blueprint for success, the ingredient list includes such products as complex organic Saponins, soy extract, yeast extract, kelp extract, humic acid, fulvic acid, and L-aminos to name a few. All of these have been combined to encourage plant vigor, reduce stress, accelerate growth, and increase yield. Trinity can be used with any nutrient program for increased micronutrient uptake and an overall increase in plant health and harvest quality.
Roots Organics Extreme Serene is designed to promote vigorous growth in your plants. This organic liquid kelp extract is filled with growth-promoting compounds. Marine kelp has some of the fastest growth characteristics of any plant on the planet and Roots Organics Extreme Serene captures this in a useable form.
Roots Organics Buddha Grow is a proprietary blend of the finest organic ingredients specifically created to promote vigor, increase yields and enhance quality in soil grown plants during their vegetative stage. Worldwide sourcing and deliberate design formulated into an exceptional liquid blend, targeted to encourage excellence from your plants.
Roots Organics Buddha Bloom is a proprietary blend of the finest organic ingredients specifically created to promote vigor, increase yields and enhance quality in soil grown plants during their flowering stage.

My questions are simple:
Has anyone ever used these fertz before on a hydroponic system?
What type of feeding schedule was used?
In DWC should the nuts be cut more than 1/4? i donno with a res less than 10gal.
Do organic fertilizers create more bacteria or slime growth, due to the lack of h2O2?


I know this company has been around for about 5 years, they just recently started selling product in my area so I was just looking for more information on these bad boys. The guy at the store said he was going to try it on his next grow, so he was unable to give any real suggestions. By the way, I am going the more organic route by using these roots organic over my traditional foxfarm!
Peace and I thanks for reading!

I can do pictures a little later tonight

Sounds good to me, only way to really know is to just do a grow with them and let the results speak for themselves.

I have never used those before so i couldn't answer the first 2 questions. You should be mixing your nutes per the instructions, Go by PPM levels to determine strength. 1/4 to start sounds good, next res change try going to a lil under half, then to half, then to 3/4, then to full and see if it works. Its all organic so it should take quite a bit to burn the plants. Just find the fastest growth to nute level and keep it there.

Organic ferts have bacteria in them to begin with, thats why its important to drain and clean your res at least once every 2 weeks. The bacteria help break up the ferts and turn in them into plant usable food. Chem nutes are the plant usable food in their most basic form, already broken down. Keep your res temps under 75F and air pumps going 24/7 and do not let light in and you shouldn't have too much trouble with bacteria and slime.

does H2O2 hurt organic fertilizer in any way!?

By the way, great information NoDrama; I will have to lower my res temp for sure.

I'm still learning, been doing this for a couple years. From what I've learned, u can't use organic nutrients in a DWC. I've tried it before and it clogged up my top feeding ring and my air stone needed to be cleaned every week. I did it to see if it could be done,after reading it couldn't be done I like experimenting! It worked, for veg. First few weeks but I started seeing all types of problems including clogging. I changed my nutrients to ionic bloom
Made it way easier to mix in res. Like I said I'm still learning so if I'm wrong please correct me! I also used roots organic go box same brand. Bio thrive grow, bio thrive bloom,cal-mag and the rest of this line.
