I am currently using Bio Bloom and was wondering (after reading about) if i had to be using the grow as well?

I sacked my MG off ( bad.gif ) and bought myself some Bio Bloom as i've just put my plants into flower (well nearly a week now) They got a bit of a shock when i first used it, but they've settled down now and there looking, great!! thumbsup.gif

I am thinking of going to my local shop at about 3wks into flower, for a booster (not sure which one so suggestions would be appreciated?) and was wondering if i should pick up some Bio grow? as i wsn't going to untill i had started a new grow,

Any help? v.gif

Peace GA

The plant will still need to be fed nitrogen during the flowering stage and the bloom formulas tend to be low in N and higher in P and K

Would recommend you get some bio-grow mate thumbsup.gif

Get the Grow, you're plants will thank you for it.

Forget the boosters, just grab some Epsom Salts for the end of week 3.

Thats a good guide to start with mate, its got me through a couple of grows with just a couple of slight tweaks here and there depending on what the plants need wink.gif

I'd agree with bish tho n dont give epsoms unless they show signs of needing it as i've gave them everytime so far and the plants dont like it, i know it says it in the above guide but it is only a guide and should be adjusted accordingly thumbsup.gif

Cheers Guys, thumbsup.gif i'll take a look at that thread matey! nice one v.gif


So what am i looking for in Epsom salts? (a brand name really, but like what are they used for??) I started on 2ml or bloom, so will i match 2ml grow?? and are the epsom salts (if i need them) mixed in with the bloom/grow? or are these the things you spray on the leaves??

(a bit off topic) but i've seen a vid on youtube, where carbonated water can be used to replace a Co2 canister (i am guessing it's a poorer effect) but will this help? or is it not wise to use this?? (and carbonated water = Soda water right?) lol.gif i didn't really listen at school pinch.gif (if they taught us how to grow weed, i'd never be hopping the back fence at lunch for a sly early finish), rofl.gif (ahh memories!)

Again thanks for the quick replies!!! thumbsup.gif Top notch people!!

Peace GA v.gif

I was told by a couple of members that it's best to use grow/bloom together untill flushing and to use 1ml of grow to 1ltr of water wink1.gif

Hey dude, epsom salts are really meant for things like baths dissolved in a hot bath they will draw all the toxins out of your body and make you feel great!

Get them from most big chemists or online (they are heavy so watch the postage)

If you are using 2ml of bloom how much water are you using? im currently 2 weeks into flower and on a 2ml Bloom and grow per 2litres of water

Cheers Super! thumbsup.gif

But should i only get epsom salts if i get a (or better my plants get a) Mg def??

Otherwise just stick to buying the grow?? and don't bother with the booster??

The bloke at my local grow shop said i should put the bloom in at a weaker measure, my plants had been vegged for about 7 weeks (i can't actually remember when i planted them, the fact i've come this far is a fluke) so he suggested 2ml bloom to every litre, for 1/1.5 weeks, untill the plants tell me otherwise. then at 3 weeks add a booster, (starting to think dollar signs where rolling up in his head?) lol.gif

any one think otherwise?? i'd like to hear oppinions as i am not so clued up on the feeding schedules really. every how many days, how much when and where abouts it's best to add what etc. 34.gif

Thanks in advance thumbsup.gif

If you're going with the BioBizz then there's no need to flush, flushing is to get rid of salt build up in hydro. BioBizz isn't delivered in salt form so there's nothing to flush away, just use grow and bloom until you chop them.

yahoo.gif Paydays rolling up so i am hoping to get some Bio-grow this week, I think my plants craving Nitrogen, yellowing of lower leaves and tips, and was wondering
1) will grow be enough to help solve the problem?
2)how much will i start with? i am currently using 3ml bloom/1 litre of water. in my 3 1/2 weeks in flower.

I'll try and get some pics up ASAP, but hopefully i've recongnised the problem and got it right, thumbsup.gif

Any suggestions on how the Bio-grow will help/not help? thumbsup.gif

Also, what's a good one to have in to tackle Mg def?
thanks in advance for any replies............

1) Yes it will, grow is the nitrogen rich feed
2) Refer back to OT1's guide

Mg Def- Epsom salts, Again OT1's guide addresses this

all the best mate thumbsup.gif

I've read OT's Guidelines again and again, and i can't seem to see how often i should be using my G&B. (got some Grow today thumbsup.gif )

Been using bloom every 3 days, but was wondering if i should use them every watering? or is it just a feed every few days?

Let me know! thumbsup.gif and thanking you in advance!
