So I picked up some of the good ole purple maxx gravity and snowstorm ultra and I am just wondering...Does the purple maxx really increase the intake alot. and is it alright to use all three of these at the same time? I used some purple maxx already about 2 ml per gallon and I am in a soil grow. as well as 3 ml of snowstorm together. The purple maxx actually did make some growth begin to purple within a day but my plants showing a nitrogen deficency and it sais not to use nutrients with it...

If you've only fed the purple maxx gravity and the snowstorm ultra once.... then I'd say its fine to give your plant a feeding with some high nitrogen nutes..

I think all that Humble line is over rated and over priced.
If your plants need a N boost, give them Amino Aid from Roots Organic. They have it in 5-0-0 and now 8-0-0.
I give my ladies 1 tbl a week starting once they get to full nutes and all the way to the flush. Keeps those leaves green till the end.

I got it much cheaper then most my buddy hooked me up. I dont know so far I am liking the results but it does depend on strain I am sure. I had looked at the roots organics but I couldnt get it at any store:( However the purple maxx really has improved trichome developement no doubt so it definently works for me

Thats good input. I haven't heard to me say anything one way or another about it. Well I have heard a few say it's over priced ( my buddys at hydro store).

Well its super concentrated and 100 percent organic I do believe which is always good..It is pretty pricey but if you have a purple strain its definently worth it, but I did have a bag seed that had no trichomes now after the second watering of it the plant is loaded...I dont think its just coincidence I think the maxx had all to do with that as well as leaves turning purple. So far im enjoying the humboldt line if you have the money...I wouldnt mind giving bloombastic a try thats another the hydro man tried to push on me but I dunno about that..I did water today with 3 ml of purple maxx and and 5 ml of snowstorm as well as 2 ml of gravity and 2 teaspoon tiger bloom with 3 teaspoon big bloom. So I will update on how they mix all together....

Well today I take a look at the buds and they got much much bigger, the nutrients I added did the trick, I would say the purple maxx doesnt uptake the nutrients but it does do something..so far I definently reccomend using these products..

Have you used it at all? People who have never used it tend to think it is overpriced because they don't know that the most you would use is like a teaspoon per gallon max
And you don't use it throughout all of flowering, only at certain times

Yea, I would have to say that its not really good to take another mans advice without giving it a personal look yourself. I mean I found alot of bad reviews on this stuff but I figured what the hell why not and its working great...I will have pictures in my grow journal of all the results here if you would like to take a look:)

No I never have used it. But I personaly think it's hype. Whats the main ingredient in the bud juice ? Is it Molases or sugar cane ? Alot of these bud builders use molases has a carb, well I do too, but from a jar of BlackStrap.
But I can never be sure until I grab a bottle myself. Maybe I will try it next season. If it gives me more than 8 oz a plant, then I am sold. Anything under that and I would call it a waste of my money being that I use the FF line up and get anywhere from 5.5 -7.5 per plant, depending on strain.
None the less I am happy for your garden. ;-)

Yeah man no problems,if you used the stuff correctly I am sure that you will get an increase in harvest bro. I used molasses when I was growing in soil but that is a thing of the past. Now I grow in water with no molasses, can't have it clogging up air stones and misters :fire:

These are all great products, a bit overpriced maybe, but they work. However you should be careful using purple maxx and the new snow storm ulta at the same time. Basically snow storm ultra is the same thing as purple maxx but they took out the ingredients that enhance color and focused more on the resin production. So if you are using them both you are really just doubling the amount you are giving your plants and this shit can burn quite easily. Gravity is probably the best single product I have found that really increases yield. Good luck and good growing.

THERE IS NO mollasses or carbs in these products at all it recommends using mollases. the gravity is actualy eel oil I do believe and the purple maxx is another type of oil from the eel and yes the animal eel. It really does to miracles..as for the purple maxx snow storm and gravity I knew snow storm was taken from purple maxx but I havent had a problem at all mixing the two. I use the fox farm line up as well and when I began the applications of the humboldt nutrients I noticed a double in size within days so I highly suggest giving it a try. I wouldnt so its a hype. they make alot of hype but it definently works great...I was able to apply all three of these products with a nutrient ppm of 900 and there was no burn. I tried a bit higher this time with a ppm of 1100 and they have slight burned tips but not bad at all..I am using de chlorinated tap water so the ppm starts at 225...hope that tid bit of info helps..but honestly

dead honestly

get the snow storm and gravity you can really skip the purple maxx unless you want that coloring and have a purple strain..the snow storm which im loving is only 10 bucks its cheap and very concentrated the gravity is like 25 a bit pricey but one hundred percent worth it considering you use 1 ml per gallon..not much...

Well as I see this forum gets like 20 views a day still I figure this topic is a popular one so I will add a bit more enlightenment into the subject. I have now had more experience with the purple maxx and have been doing some experimentation. I feel its best if your using ro water at a ppm of 15 or lower that you should never exceed a ppm of 325 (using fox farm products atleast) I add purple maxx at 1/2ml a gallon first day into flowering, second week I dont apply the third week I apply at 1 ml a gallon. and fourth week and 2 ml a gallon. YOU MUST get your plants used to this product for whatever reason or you will get severe burn but not if you use slowly. Now when you add the purple maxx you may notice your ppm does not change at all thats okay it will almost double in 24 hours, so dont go adding more. There was no odd taste of any sort with the purple maxx on the bud or any retardation of trichomes. It did aid in the purpling of a few plants. You have a 30 percent chance of it changing the color, however it does add to the trichome production very nicely. I do however move my lights up 4-5 inches for around 15 hours after watering with this. (I have a 600 watt hps air cooled with a 466 cfm ecoplus inline fan). I dont know if I left anything out just ask:)

The snow storm-adds to the stacking of flowers most definently its ridiculous however I dont have alot of experience I like the fact that purple maxx is 100 percent organic snowstorm is not because they do concentrate it more themselves but the ingredients themselves are organic except one small chemical dont know what it is. but I will use it occasionally with the purple maxx using the same dose purple maxx and adding 1-2 ml snow storm with it.

Gravity-Most definently hardens the buds, after drying all my plants that have this product applied are rock hard, however do not overdo be very light it will burn your plants horribly, and move the lights up atleast a foot after application for a minimum of 24 hours. I use 1 ml a gallon the first application the second at 2 ml and the third 1 ml, as the bottle sais you can use up to harvest, and I never had a strange taste or any type of a problem. It really is a great product if you dont mind some form of chemical fertilizer, I had a 56 percent increase with the product which is quite amazing..

any questions ask:)
