Does anyone have experience with both Bloombastic and Shooing Powder? Whats the preference?

The nice hydro store lady just gave me a sample of Shooting Powder and was raving about it.
Yes everything from house and garden is amazing stuff, and this is no exception (shooting powder) but do not use it with any other sort of bloom accelerators. use it during last 2 weeks of flowering and each sachet is enough to make 100 litres. Just a pity nobody sells it where I live now :-(

you thought of supersoil next time Wej>? mine is not the same than subcool's but similar... anyway, I did not look at my PH since I started my grow, ... most people using this soil technique do not seem to worry about their PH ever! Very easy going and from what I have seen, people are getting great results! so far I like it with the LEDs too because the soil is drying slower I don't feel like my plants are missing out on nutes from watering them only once a week.
I think I am going to try and stick with FFOF and get that down pat instead of switching it up. After this I am pretty damn sure I am going back to hydro haha.

hehe I love the supersoil so far, I must say there is nothing like hydro for fast growth... since I only grow for myself, I prefer to become my patience and grow weed the natural way!! Also, I keep hearing that weed taste much better in soil, I am looking forward to smoke my own organic weed because I think I usually smoke commercial hydroponic ... very potent but who knows what they put in it! (whatever works for pest\mold or other problems...)

you got that link again for your other journal? thanks

Yeah, Coco is the dogs bollocks, all the benefits of hydro for fast growth and yield but with added benefit of organic growing in soil for taste and potency. So fast to adjust ph and nutes you will be blown away with your results my friend :-)

Hit the nail on the head my friend.......Quick nute and ph adjustment are the big reasons for the switch

leogets your a troll, that has nothing better to do then troll. Also you can use shooting powder in soil, works very well, sleezy1 used it in all his grows and got amazing results with 2x500watt blackstars

here is a the post were sleezy mentions the dosage he used, and its working well on my end so far https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/483980-2-500-watt-blackstar-led.html#post6580792

Wejuana, its still a fair grow not the best, but hopefully there would be some end result.

Peace man :)
 
Yeah I'll definitely still be posting the results of the first round. Its 11 days and counting til chop time!
Good show mate, I'll be more interested in the results of next rounds go! This round, well, you know whats up. The plants have had a rough time to say the least and to judge any of the lights on this round imo would be unfair. Hope you dont mind but here's the link to my grow using 4 of the 168x's in a grow lab 120. I'm on day 40 of bloom here when this vid was shot

OK so i just read your whole thread wejuana (after many joints, bowls, beers, and naps) and i gotta say GREAT JOB! i would of started all over and corrected the nute problem before it even starts, but you held on and for that i give you mad props!
also i would like to add that too all those FOOLS AND KIDS talking ish, let them be, we where all once kids and we acted like fools lol, experience will teach them how too act. TODAYS NOOB GROWER IS TOMMOROWS JEDI GROWER.
now back to the thread, i have some questions/comments.
first, Im currently running pure leds and soo far im realizing that led grows require diffrent nutes, or let me reword that, led grows require more attention, i remember someone mentioning something about mag and cal being used less or more in led grows? anyone have anything too add to that? reguarding nutes intake with pure led grows?
and also i was under the assumption that when i bought these leds i wouldnt have much of a heat problem and therefor lower my cooling cost and helping reduced the foot print on globalwarming, but this doesnt seem to be the case, i have a 5X5X8 with two blackstar 240 and one prototype penetrator 360 genertaion x as well as one 90 watt ufo flying around in there, and my heat is close to 94 when my tent is sealed, i know how to correct this but just a little dissapointed in the fact that im putting off a lot of heat there by making me have to resort to having to pay for cooling energy, any simple "GREEN" ways of lowering the heat with out using up a lot of energy? thanks
stay up wejuana!!!!! =)
heres a couple pics of my personal current led op and a pic of my previous led/hps grow

Damn.. you read the whole thing!?! I don't even think I read the whole thing! haha jp.

What type of ventilation do you have for your tents? And what is the outside tent room temp? I was able to pull off a few grows with next to no ventilation (besides oscillating fans) and kept the temp at a max of 87 when the lights were on, and the crops turned out surprisingly bombay. I do think that the Penetrator 336X (1w) that im using putts off a fair amount of heat, and possibly the most out of the 3 lights (the Blackstar 900w in the mother tent is damn warm).

I've been using cal-mag for the last few weeks (@4ml/gal) and stuff seems to be going good.

Sick setup. Post a link up and ill sub u.
