Default Advanced Nutrients BIG BUD Powder?
I am starting to use it and wondered if anyone had any experience with it that could give me any good tips (i.e., amount to use per gallon, how long, any pH issues) and if the results were positive.

the only thing i have been giving my plants besides the big bud is
molasses,some cheep walmart bloom burst with a npk of 10-52-10
when they were in veg i gave them supper thrive and vigoro all purpose plant food . needless to say i have not had the worst of luck with this stuff
i have yet to burn anything and the last thee grows have given me just over 7 oz .

like everyone else im looking to do the best i can for my girls so any input would be grate . so far i have only given the plant one feeding of the AN big bud with about a tbl spoon of molasses.

for those of you that dont know im growing G13 Labs Afghan Mafia under a 400w hps in a grow space that is only 2feet x 2 feet x 6 1/2 feet. my temps are anywhere from 70*f-77*f daytime and 50*f-55*f at night my RH is 16-18%.
i have a fan bringing in air form the basement window via a 4 inch dryer tube and a fan sucking air out form under the light into the attic .

I used it on my last grow but I couldn't tell any difference. It might have gotten a little bigger than if I had not used it; I just don't know for sure.

OK thanks PP. how much did you give it per gallon? did you have pH problems?


anyone else have anything to say about big bud? or is it just going to be a wast of time giving it something that don't work?

Big bud gets 2 grams /gallon of water. 7 grams = 1 teaspoon. So about 1/3 teaspoon. I use a gram scale and dose appropriately.

get a ppm pen and cut out the other bloom fertilizer, you can use big bud at 800 ppm as long as you flush every 3rd watering. ppm meter is very important.

Ph goes down very slightly. I do see a difference, especially in density.

That's good to hear because I got a great deal on a 500 gram container of it off of Ebay and I wanted to try it out, if I can ever get my plants out of veg.

Big bud is usually used in the flowering phase, in the last weeks of flowering I add AN Overdrive, I usually get nice big thick buds.
