Have you added FYTOCELL to your soil mix---I have had killer results--close to hydro speed rates----I use 25%big and chunky perlite/25%vermiculite/25%fytoflake/25% ocean forest foxfarm-that's the soil---
I use Greenfuse bloom stim. and the plants just love the stuff. Indo bat guano with sucanat---my nutrs. are Advanced Nutrients iguana bloom and I foliar feed every other week with sea kelp(thrive with B).
I use some beneficials ,fungi and an enzyme. the only other adds I use are fulvic and humus in very small doses.
I use good water and my temps never fluct more than a couple deg of 78--the humidly stays 35 to 45 all the time---also have a lot of airflow and co2. The buds finish hard as a rock and are the size of small footballs...killer and DANK.

thanks doc, you always give good straight forward answers. I've never heard of fytocell I will try to look it up but do you have a quick description/explanation of what it is and what it does. Also for this run I am already potted (will be premixing next time ahead of time) so what things can I add post potting. I've also heard great things about fulvic and humic when should they be added? Thanks again rep+

1. You can pull up the fytocell site on the web for the exact specs but in a nutshell the stuff cannot be over-watered---carries a sterile ph of 5.5 to 7. and most importantly carries the perfect o2 to h2o ratio.
The stuff you would want to use is fytoflake(product is called fytoBAG--your hydro shop can get it for you---roots love the stuff---it will loosen up your soil and give more o2 for the roots----Just by adding the fyto, my plants have grown about 15 to 20% faster than without it. and they seem to be healthier as well.
As far as the fulvic and humic---make sure to check the nutr label on the stuff you are using now(it may have some in it) if it doesn't then pick some up---you can start using the stuff now---just use at 1/2 strength to start--your soil and plants will love you for it.(again in a nutshell they both help in many ways the day to day operations of the plants/roots/and soils micro and bio(i.e. breaking down of nutrients for fast assimilation and function as well as soil health and plant vigor).
I hope this helps you out my friend---give it a try----you'll love the results.

One more thing---I have tried almost all the bloom stims on the market and the greenfuse has worked the best for me---a close second would be the bloom stim from House and Garden.

i have heard good things about apple juice( all natural , no added sugars or chemicals) and molasses mixed with water, about 1/2 tablespoon per cup
Apple juice. Havent heard that one before, but i suppose make sure the apples are organic, fucking supermarket apples are shit, ...anyway...i use guano.

I don't do organic myself, it's just not my thing, but I know a guy that swears by it. I just stick with Big Bud, Bud Blood, etc.

Molasses for weight but what about quality. Do I want bigger buds for the imagination?(straight here no Connaisseur commercial)

What seems to work very well for me is to mix the thrive alive sea kelp at 50% of label under there foliar application(something like 3ml/liter---check the label to make sure) I then mix 1 teaspoon of spray-n-grow with 1/4 teaspoon of coco wet. After you ph the liter to 6.3 shake and spray all over your plants/under your plants/ even spray on the soil---you really can't use to much. Don't spray with your light on or the mix will burn your plants. I will tell you this about the mix--------I have seen plants that look over-watered and stressed snap back within a couple of hours-----That's right----only a couple of hours....if your plants are stressed in any way give it a shot-I know you and your plants will love it.

Is it still safe to foliar feed with kelp once buds have started, if so should I try to avoid the buds when I do the foliar feeding (about 2 weeks into budding). I've never really done any foliar feeding only done it with neem oil, really need to start doing more foliar though seems to be the way to go from what I have been reading. Also do you use the thrive alive red or green I just noticed that there are two and I can't really see much difference? Thanks again for your advice you've truly been so helpful
