Hmmm...well, I don't use anything like that in veg..I usually only use light veg nutes in veg, and then I use some Botanicare sweet along with my normal feedings in flower...I don't think it increases yield, but it makes the weed way way way stickier, and it smells nice I think...so while it may not add anything extra in weight, it just makes a better finished product I think...so far...or at least the finished product smells way way way more...I don't know...I got it as a sample, and I feel like i like it...I sometimes think I like something for awhile before changing my mind and deciding I don't...but I am really really thinking of picking up another bottle...because the sample is almost out...and I do really really believe that it improves the smell and stickiness...it might all be in my head though...
I like how one person says I love this stuff it is so awesome!
next person says ," you're an idiot it is all a scam! This stuff is amazing...
so here I am saying I don't know it is doing anything....but if my nose, and eyes and tastebuds don't deceive me there is a difference...
okokokok...I got it...the sweet really does make a difference...I know this because I have a strain from DNA genetics, Rocklock, awesome plant...super short and compact with minimal LST. Has Rock hard buds, just a joy to grow...but>>> BUT...I like fruity weed...and I guess this is rather fuel smelling...and tastes weird...not bad, I know that some people look for the flavor it has, but it aint me babe...again I roll with the fruits...and if i use the Sweet Berry on the Rocklock it kills alot of the fuely smell and taste! I mean in a smell test i can still tell Rocklock from any other of my strains...but it isn't as terrible now...it used to smell like someone took some really killer skunky skunk weed and dipped it lightly in some sort of watered down diesel maybe...anyway I don't consider it pleasant, but the Sweet adds enough of a fruity taste so Rocklock is no longer my backup smoke..so Berry beats Diesel and that is enough for me to buy more...I like the way the Rocklock grows and smokes, but not the way it tastes or smells...but if I use Botanicare Sweet then I like to smoke it and don't mind to smell it...
There is an issue with the Sweet though>>> It makes any strain way stinkier...way stinkier, I have a carbon filter so I don't really smell it here, but man if I try to carry any of this smoke with me I can't...I was going to a party at a friend's house and turns out it has to stay in a jar or you can put a bag in a lunch box..it is way way way too smelly...over the top...Stinks more through the bag then when you smoke it....but hey if you are out somewhere and drop your stuff at a party you can just sniff about til you find it...won't take long...
So to sum all this inter fact finding up...
I do really like Botanicare's Sweet because I really do end with a noticeable difference in taste. So if you already like the taste then leave it be...But on the other side of that coin it also improves the scent, but once you dry it, dear christ it, like, screams "I HAVE WEED!!!" through a bullhorn...to everyone around you...so I guess I have to use it on some plants for at home...and then not use it on one, so I can take some of that one plant with me if I am going somewhere that may call for a small smoke....
Damn ranting again...hahahahahahaaaa
