10ml is for seedling in veg it suggest 20ml per gallon

ive experienced my fair share of fail from using more than 1/4 strength. i do 1/4 strength (of any nutes i add) and feed with every water. or 1/2 and add plain water the next day or two.

NPK is the same...bought a litre of overdrive and got a free litre of ripe...I thought it was ready for the garbage too.

Ah must have looked at the bottle wrong. Hard to read the little writing, thanks

I use botanicare grow, bloom, and karma. Was a chore to get them to full strength but I did run full strength throughout flower. 25mL per gallon at peak. I personally had the most trouble with the karma at 1/4 strenghth during veg.

hahaha it was only one mushroom but no.. I think its a combo of things.. my soil dries very slow, bad window seals, mold spores in the room and possibley Earth Juices "grow" which is made from shit..

well ive only had one harvest grow mushrooms, and i never did anything that much differently other than using a cheaper soil. so idk, maybe your mushrooms are different.

so i used the cns17 bloom begining week 3 of flower, that was my recommendation from my local hydro store buddy and its takin great

i use botanicares Organic Pure blend bloom (used their org. grow during vegg as well) and everything is doin awesome. im runnin soil which i definately recommended ONLY using CNS17 in SOIL cus its waaay to thick and creamy to run in hydro. anyways budd at the hydroshop said these will help my buds really get to that fullness that i want. has a great ratio of NPK n runs awesome with other botanicare products. more updates soon!
