    Cytokinins (6-BAP) & Auxins (IAA)

    Interesting thread. I'm planning on trying the GA3 on a Banana. I have several pups I need to remove from the main plant. It will be interesting to see how they respond.

    Cytokinins (6-BAP) & Auxins (IAA)

    I think using the IBA helps with the root development during the accelerated growth that the GA3 causes. You would think that a plant would benefit the most during the first few weeks of vegetative stage with a mild dose of the components. That could possibly give you plants at three weeks...

    Cytokinins (6-BAP) & Auxins (IAA)

    The BAP is used to counter the vertical effects of the GA3. Finding the right ratio is the key.

    Cytokinins (6-BAP) & Auxins (IAA)

    My experiences have not been favorable. With the GA3 the plants grew rapidly but were nothing more than stem and small leaves. It was however interesting to watch them grow several inches in a day. With the BAP, the first time it developed plants that were short and stalky with very large...

    Calcium Nitrate + Jacks classic Bloom?

    That Jacks Classic Bloom has almost all the trace elements and what's not there isn't going to cause any problems. I do something similar except I use Vitagrow. They have a three part nutrient where you use "part A" which has the micronutrients with NPK 4-14-24 and you add "part B" calcium...

    Have we gotten so far out of touch with nature?

    You won't get any argument from me. But you will never convince the many that have fallen for nothing more than slick marketing that they don't need those twenty plus bottles of goodies. Or that if they are not following some insane feeding schedule that their plants won't grow well. Or that...

    All kinds of issues. Please respond

    First thing to do would be to toss most of that crap in the trash. Sledgehammer? That stuff is not needed neither is Liquid Karma, aquashield, or hydrozyme. If your roots are slimy you could have some root rot. An h202 bath followed by a couple days of plain water and you should be ready to...

    Big fan of my own nutes...

    Cool! There you go! Making your own! No need to spend money on overpriced bottles of mostly water. You will get as good if not better results with what you're doing vs using any hyped up product out there. And you don't have to follow some insane feeding schedule where you have to mix up...

    I want to switch from advanced please help

    I would get the powder and you should get at least the 4lb boxes if not ten. You save a lot of money buying the larger sizes.

    I want to switch from advanced please help

    Give it a try. I don't use the water conditioner or the spray that they have on the feeding chart, just the nutes and the results surpass anything I've used previously and it is as simple as it can get.

    I want to switch from advanced please help

    Most of the nute lines are way overpriced and force you to buy a plethora of their supplements to keep your plant healthy because they purposely leave their base nutrients incomplete. The feeding schedules for some of the nutrient lines are completely ridiculous and unnecessary to grow a frigin...

    Prune for no Stress/Weak Growth!

    Can't help but laugh! You say all the energy goes to the roots etc.... Where do you think that energy is created? Did you ever think that it might be from the growth your hacking off? That stem ain't making any energy. Do you know what photosynthesis is? You can have your thread. It's...

    Do I have all the nutes I need?

    That feeding chart is insane! Why would you go through all that to grow a frickin weed? There is nothing special about these plants. You don't need any special potions. In fact if anything you need less than many other plants. Save your money and use the KISS method. Keep It Simple S...

    What form and brand of calcium nitrate can I buy locally?

    VitaGrow SuperFastGrow is part b of their three part nutrient line and is mostly calcium nitrate. It's designed for hydro and it's less than ten dollars a pound box online. That and a box of Epsom salts will make over a hundred gallons of what is basically calmag without the iron for under...

    Advanced Nutrients LIE on their labels...

    I can't believe how many people buy into the hype and shell out their money for bottles of basically water. The whole nute industry is more about marketing than having products that actually do you any good. They pretty mush say or put what they want on the label. There is absolutely no need...

    Hps ?

    There's no hype about HID's. Yes you can get good bud with CFL's but you can get much better with HID's. The OP should get a 400 - 600 watt HPS and call it a day.
