Anyone not use a PK Booster near the end of flower? Your thoughts?


This is just some kind of anecdote, but I tried it without the pk boost(pictured here) and the plants didn’t have the same level of stink to them. I only use 2 ml per liter in my hydro system.

I’ve used ANs overdrive and monster bud from growtek.

Overdrive is overrated imo.
Great marketing, but I didnt see noticable weight vs base nutes.

Same with monster bud.

I’ve never done a side by side. Cant really with my setup.

Just use base Jack’s 321 now.

I use Massive Bloom thru bloom to week 7 - also have Terpinator and Purpinator (sometimes but if do use only middle and late flower (weeks 4-5-6) Elemental Nutrients has a bloom booster called "Flower Fuel (-rated in top 10 , myco base Also Liquid Gold (build-a-Soil) excellant and Big Bud Bud by Advanced Nute (have used all - thru the years ( Humbolt County’s Own --Sonic Bloom is great also) I f you are growing for “cup compention” check out Soil Balance !!! (It’s won a few yrs ago)

Does anyone use molasses? I’ve read its good for soil health and improving bud weight.

Molasses Zero sounds good :grin: apparently molasses has an npk ratio of 1.0.5 and contains calcium, magnesium, iron along with a load of sugar. Its supposed to feed the microbes and break down the salts in the soil, so it should be good for late flower and no need to flush it out.

Canna boost is amazing, I’m using bio canna now little more pricey but definitely good stuff

At what stages of the flower cycle do you use that?

I start at week 4 when the buds are starting to bulk up. Sometimes week 3, depends on how it’s going.

N/K ratio of 3/4 or less during veg helps Ca uptake. K/N ratio of 5/4 is ideal during flowering stage helps pH stability and N uptake. P/N ratio of 1/10 during veg and 1/7 during flowering satisfies P requirement for maximum yield. More than these will leach, accumulate in the solution or uptake luxuriously.
