Dyna-Gro vs Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur (AK47 Grow)

Thank you for answering my "use your common sense" question heehee :D

Do you use an aerocloner of sorts? If so do you recommend using any bloom in it other than rooting hormomes? Ive read they are helpful in miniscue amounts.

I don't have an aero-cloner but if I did, I probably run a little of DG's Grow in there instead of their bloom.

thanks for this thread, been really reading the info, have started to use up all my other nutes, from Counissiour AN, and H&G, adding Protek has really helped my plants fight mites. I run a flood drain system, just wondering when I should add KLN, I was thinking of stopping Voodoo and it's half brothers. thanks.

I never used KLN during the grow cycle, only in the clone dome. I'd soak my rapid-rooters in a KLN and grow solution before placing a cut in the cubes.

I have just recently gone to rapid-rooters and seen good results, I place them in 4" rockwool, will try the soak in a day or two upon next cuttings. I was thinking that KLN could replace H&G Roots Excelurator or Voodoo family, does that make sense at all, want to be careful before adding it to a 40 gal res

In all honesty, you could drop all those bottles during the growth cycle and nothing would change.
 
How much H202 per gallon in hydro app?

And while we are speaking of KLN i wanted to say i got root nubs in three days! Fastest I ever!
I also read that KLN is twice as fast as excelerator...

Hey HB. Ran into some deficiencies in the mother room so I recently picked up my bottle of foliage pro. I am looking to feed my mothers every watering in my promix hp. Them girls are big I water every 2-3 days with minimal run-off. Would you suggest shooting for a solution with around 50 ppm nitrogen on a feed feed feed shedule? Mothers under hid light with stable temp and humidity.

Thanks in advance.

A couple mls/gal should be plenty to keep them healthy and deficiency free.
 
I just wanted to share that I added 7 ml's into an 11 gallon reservoir of magpro ( had a sample bottle of it and it has a much lower N rating than either Bloom or Grow) and it was about two to three days later when most of them really took off with the roots! A few of the smaller cutting got a lil bit yellow and appear to have a "calcium looking residue" on the leaf?? they are still putting out roots but as far as i know there isn't much calcium if any at all in my mixture with the RO water.

Just thought I would share some more Dyna-Gro info :D my mixture for the reservoir has 2oz of colloidal silver, about 4 oz of hydrogen peroxide, about half strength if not a hint more of KLN and the 7ml of the mag pro in the 11 gal res.

What is this reservoir feeding? Rooted plants? Is this a veg reservoir?

This is my home made aero cloner. I read that clones need P to help them root better. I have also read that anything in the normal nute range will burn or hinder them hence the ratio.

You got some advice for me there meesta HB? I be all ears mon :D

If your cuts stay healthy for long enough, they'll kick out roots eventually. So to keep cuts healthy, I like DG's Grow, but any food that is clean and balanced should work fine too. I give them about 60ppm of grow and use something similar to KLN. That mix keep the cuts green and healthy until I get roots. So I'd say ditch the magpro and colloidal silver.

Thanks! Keep the peroxide?

The only reason to run peroxide in your cloner is to kill the bacteria that may form in the water. It helps if you are having bacterial problems. Bleach works fine too.

Bleach!?! sounds a lil harsh but I guess if humans can survive it then it may not be the worst... pointers are ALWAYS welcome :) On the harsh note I have read that peroxide is QUITE harsh and on humans should only be used on oral applications because it will cause tissue damage! I.E. scars!

I was using the colloidal silver to kill disease as well as the peroxide BUUUUT I did read that seed companies and breeders alike use the stuff to turn early flowering females into males to get female pollen for the fem seeds.

Thank you all so much for your quick responses and tips! I learn something new every grow but it helps to have peeps with years under their belts lending the wisdom and knowledge!

Has anyone here heard of Dyna-Gro Orchid?? Just got a email from amazon.com saying that they had this stuff for sale. I was only aware of the foliage pro and the 777 but they also have this stuff

If im not allowed to post vendor links please forgive me and modify this post you mods out thur..
its 7-8-6
