Hi Plant Magic
Can I use any of these products to prevent bud rot on my outdoor plants? Its getting to a crucial time now with the buds growing nicely and the weather going colder and damper.
I don't want to lose my little stash to bud rot so am wondering if there is anything I can do to prevent it, rather than trying to cure it if it starts.
Any help would be most welcome.

Martin,
Bud rot stop is OK I think, Ratdog uses it but having said that's inside, if I remember correctly Bud rot stop acts not only to stop the threat but also works systemicaly to prevent it in the first place, think positive, we might not get any rot with this lovely weather ATM

Ill have a look at that, never heard of it. I just don't want to take my chances, if the weather turns I want to be prepared, dib dib dib and all that. Some of the plants are a little behind and I reckon they will finish around end of Oct, its a long way to go and owt could happen

Budstop is safe to use Martin,it`s a good product imo, essence is great too, they are both molasses based.

Essence isn't molasses based it's a fungus and some bacteria which use the molasses as their intial food source to breed to mega numbers before we use them on the plants, It's very similar to beer making.
