You are correct in what you are saying about the BB grow, it is beet extract and molasses with other macro nutrients. From what I understand it should be used initially in the veg stage and then the stretch period of the flowering stage for the high N content. Then use fish mix for the roots and essential nutrients during full veg. Bloom is used sparingly when the pistils appear and increased gradually until the end of flowering for the P and K. All the while adding minute amounts of calmag. That's all I've been doing, but I was feeding with every watering and it was only when I got a ppm tester, it was off the scale.
This one I'm just finishing off. BioBizz fish mix for veg, grow and bloom for flowering and calmag throughout. I'm pleased with the results from BioBizz his time, steep learning curve but I think I am the right track now.
They are mostly all milky now and some amber have appeared in the last couple days. I have a jeweler's loupe but it doesn't take pictures. I'll see how good the camera is on my phone.
Best I can do with my cheap phone.
honestly my last 2 grows i lost them due to budrot and mold your nugs look amazing! super big fat and frosty! i hope i can get some nugs like yours
I hear you man, I live in an area with high relative humidity. Everyday 90% plus RH for days on end. I have had to invest in a dehumidifier which costs more than my lights to run but what can you do it works...honestly my last 2 grows i lost them due to budrot and mold your nugs look amazing! super big fat and frosty! i hope i can get some nugs like yours
Nah mate you use grow and bloom mixed throughout its whole life cycle i use bio bizz without it you will have problems like an average light feed is 1ml grow 1 ml bloom into 2 litres of water when in bloom you increase the dosage of bio bloom dependent on what you growing obviously i dont use fish mix but if you do dont use grow u can use that instead of the grow many do this instead too i wouldnt use both unless going sparingly with it and ive used the biobizz nutrient line for more than a decade imo its the best organic bottle u can get once u get the hang of it obviously no till organics done rights better but for a bottle its great tho and the only time id give just grow alone is first weak feeds when there small after that you use a mix
High and thanks for the input...I have not used the canna flush for final flush before harvest, a good pal of mine in BC has been growing successfully for years and told me to just use only water (nothing else) in the last week before harvesting. Not excessive flushing, just normal watering with no nutrients. His crop has always been good so I took his advice along with what I have learned here and had ok and some great results. I only bought and used the canna flush when I had overfed my plants on one occasion, it sort of helped but the damage had been done.
Hi Conor, I have tried fish mix only a couple of times in the very early veg stage because I thought that it promotes good root growth (read this on a BioBizz website or forum) then stop the fish mix and use grow when entering the flower stage and then gradually add bloom as it begins to flower, increasing both as the plant demands it. I have never used all 3 together at any time. I only add feed to every third watering. Any thoughts on this.....
With all mix topped off with a bit of seedling soil for the start your roots will be fine mate its phosphorus roots use mostly and blooms got that id only supplement more if it needs it also idk where you are in Scotland but where im at waters soft as shit so you will need to use some calmag or epsom salts mate our waters good but usually low ppm also i dont really follow what bio bizz say i use a modified version of what old timer1 used thing with nutrient companys is they always tell u to use more than u should they are in the buisiness of selling nutes after all
I'm using light mix, very little nutrients if any. Tried all mix to start a couple of years ago and it was too hot as I added nutrients as well. Burned the plants. I am using less than the chart says and calmag, but not too much. I am going off the ppm's in and out along with pH levels in and out. I'm learning to read the plant now rather than the chart... steep learning curve but I think I am on the right track now. Thanks for the input from a fellow Scot. I will try using grow, bloom and calmag only throughout on the next grow.
Mate all i do is plant it in seedling compost ontop of allmix dont feed for least 4 weeks mate its organics u dont need to ph shit unless theres a issue its not synthetics your feeding the soils micros and in turn they feed the plant so its not so applicable also allmix from the start alone is a bit hot but ive popped stuff that way before and it worked out fine like i said i dont feed em till they a bit older and need it tho
Hi Conor, thanks for your advice about BioBizz products. I have only been at this for 2 years now. I realised about the feeding the soil microbes and that is what feeds the plant about a year ago. Each grow since has been getting better, I normally don't adjust the pH as the nutrients lower the tap water pH naturally, just keep and eye on it and record it in my diary. Runoff pH got pretty low on one grow, turned out to be a bit of root rot. Some hydrogen peroxide helped get her back on track. I have a new plant ready and I'll take your advice onboard. She's only a week old and not given her any nutrients yet. This one is for the chop, gone 70 days now in flower.
Your over watering by sounds of it a bit mate ive never had root rot seen it in my mates grow tho and thats why he got it he was drowning em a bit and the pots had shit drainage if it wasnt in bloom and in veg you discovered it id say trim any roots back that aint white but in bloom nun u can do but ride it out and learn for future
