Veg and Bloom Grow

Hey all! Looks like my Veg+Bloom test thread was lost in the recent site crisis. For those just checking in, it goes a little something like this;

I was given a sample of a 1 part dry powder nutrient called Veg+Bloom. There was a buzz going around that this was what growers have been waiting for, A 1 part powder nutrient for vegging and blooming your favorite plant. It was cheap and simple to use, and best of all, produced big sticky results. It includes silica, aminos, and a vast array of other vitamins and such. I was given the hard/tap water formula and told to use with my tap water at the rate of .5-1tsp per gallon and plant in Aurora Roots soilless coco. So I did. And ohhh shit I grew the best bud I've ever grown And this was my first run with this stuff! A 5lb tub will make 500-700+ gallons of solution that's enough for an army of green!

my first run beginning to end;

day 1 12/12

8 weeks in 12/12

some nugs from a friend of mine running veg+Bloom in rockwool; I've seen dozens of batches from this guy and this run was absolutely en-crusted!

Looks pretty good... who makes it? Where can I find a spec sheet on it? What are the NPK values? How does this work?

It's made by hydroponic-research. Their addy is www.hydroponic-research.com. not sure what you mean by how does it work?

Thanks for the link and info... disregard that question for now.

16-10-30... interesting... not sure I understand how they can get away with that ratio throughout when others all have to switch it up. I don't know much about this stuff though.

This is synthetic, yes? Is it salt-based?

I want to know more about this stuff too. Apparently the company is making formulations for the tap water of various cities. Already you can get San Diego formulated because that's where the company is based.

I got some of this the other day in the mail. I haven't tried it yet, but as far as I can tell most people on the internet claim it to be awesome...I just want to be able to try it on a plant from veg into flower....the whole time...so when my next ones are ready for nutes I think I will give one this.

that way I know it can do what it claims and go veg to bloom...although I have one plant that I know won't be able to have it in veg as it uses almost no freaking nitrogen somehow...it always needs some in flower though...

I don't know...I get similar results using MG for flowering plants. I use the spent water from my budders to feed my moms.

veg+bloom is more like a bloom only formula, the 16-10-30 formula is clearly meant for bloom, and it is similar to other popular name brand cannabis formulas from Advanced Nutrients, Canna, etc

My guess is they just assume people don't veg for longer than 1-2 weeks, therefore the actual makeup of the veg nutrient is not important (ie: you can use a blooming formula to veg just like if you used Dyna Grow Bloom or Advanced Nutrients Sensi Bloom). For people who do any significant amount of vegging over a few weeks, this formula will be incomplete.

Also, the price from what I saw isn't impressive, it equates to slightly less than AN costs if I did the maff right. ($20 / lb plus shipping?)

squarepush3r, it actually works very well for veg too. I have everything on the veg+Bloom now. Moms, babies, teens, all my flowering girls. They are all smiling back at me. Seriously man, not to knock the NPK ratios and all that but it just plain works. I can't imagine my plants being any healthier! I feeling like I'm trying to keep things from getting root bound and overgrown they are pushing so much lush growth. And dood, the price, it's cheap! I'm getting like 100 gallons for every pound, for 20 bucks..... Just can't lose bro!

So for my next test I am going to run a Super SIlver and Romulan cut side by side. I'm gonna cut back on the feed strength to 3/4tsp per gallon every watering and leach every 5th watering. I vegged these babies with veg+Bloom rite out of the clone dome and they are cranking and ready for 12s....here we goooo!

That's funny you have a bag of roots soilless in the photo because I had heard that stuff works really well with that blend in particular. Guess word spreads though and people catch on.

Roots is what was recommended and is also surprisingly cheap. I just topped the above girls and will try to update today. Super dark lush green growth.

How old are those plants pictured above Cue? thinking of doing this for my grow.

like 2 weeks out of the cloner. I'm slackin on the picks at the moment trimmin on some . I harvested way more from my last run with these nutes!

wow very nice cue! you got some beautiful girls there

these nutrients wit a hydroponic system??

thanks atoodope!

tbyles, I'm growing in the roots coco soilless

this is the plant on the right in the pic above. I'm using 3 tsp per 5 gallon home depot paint bucket. I used 1 tsp per gallon last round and they took off a little faster but I think I might have over done it a little. I called hydroponic research and they recommend feed feed water feed feed water @ 1 tsp per gallon but I think I am gonna stay with 3 tsp per 5 gallon and feed with every watering.

this plant looks very healthy ! keep em greener bro !
