Anyone know what shooting powder and top booster actually are? From the H&G nutrient line?

Here’s the nutrients I’ve used this time around.

100% coco.

veg EC- 0.6-1.0
Dutch Pro Hydro coco Grow soft water A/B

Calmag (0.2EC bump every feed)



flower EC- 1.0-1.4 (tapering down towards the end of flower)

Dutch Pro Hydro coco bloom softwater A/B

Calmag (0.2EC bump every feed)

Monopotassium Phosphate (>0.1EC bump for a couple of weeks)

Magnesium Sulphate

some of this I don’t use all the time. For example the Magnesium Sulphate is used later in flower once or twice as sulphur is supposed to help terpenes.

With the coco I multi feed every day.
Awesome, Im buying some whats the ppm of your soft water?

could I add a little 100% organic fertiliser and worm castings to the mix or would that throw the-nutrients out of balance?

i actually use a 0-50-0 bloom boost at wk 4, i normally dont notice a need to boost K, in rockwool, but if i was in coco i would as K strips in coco as well

i use rockwool so the bloom booster i use is Bud Boost from Green Planet Nutrients, salts that need to be mixed and smell kinda like vegemite

what week are you in, what are the genetics
I think Im in week 5, Im quite new to this so not really sure the buds are about the size of my thumb.

id use it at half strength till day 45-49(sorry week mid 7, start of week 8), if the plants are no showing signs of tip burn on the second feeding you can up it to 3/4's strength and so on till you are at full.

are you using their other nutrients as well?

Honestly I’ve only ever ran salts with coco.

coco needs to be kept within range of pH5.5-6.2.
If you start adding organic Amendments it could throw the ph out of whack.

My water source is 0.2EC 100ppm at .5 calibration.
