Dr Hornby's Big Bud
Does anyone use the powder form of Dr Hornby's Big Bud? If so does this stuff make your Rez solution stink? I mean really stink? I just started using it about 4 days ago. I made up my regular batch of Solution, and added the Big Bud, the next day my Soup STUNK. So I let it go another day. Still was stinking really bad, So I dumped it out, washed everything real good, and started over. Well The Soup Stinks like road kill again. Is this normal? I have heard of some Nut's stinking a lot.
Any Info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
LDB

Well, I"d say that you have some kind of critters growing up and setting up housekeeping in your soup, and then they use up all of the oxygen and start dying off and their tiny little carcasses really smell like dead bodies, and when there's thousands of them, even though they're little, the odor can curl your nose hairs.
The trick is to aerate the soup better, and make sure that the temp of the solution stays below 75 F.

I beleive you should keep your soup no higher than 70 or pythem will start plus theres more oxgyen for your roots 65 to 68 is perfect

Ok,, Well I called Advanced Nutrients customer support. And here is what they said....
" YES!!! Once Powdered Big Bud is added to water, IT WILL SMELL!!!!!!!!" and that if it does not, you most likely did something wrong"
It is not like you walk into room and wondered who died. You have to put your nose down over the soup and sniff.
Thanks for the try guys, but please, if you have not used something or done something, Not good to give advise..
Well my friend................ Pffft..

First off you are giving an oppinion on something you have never used. So your oppinion is useless. Second of all, it does really stink like death. But not in the room itself. just if you take a wiff of it.
Not cool to give advise on something you know nothing about.
I asked for info from people who used this product, not from people who know someone who does. Next time read closer....
This is not my first Rodeo.
Also, you might have noticed that I threw the first batch out, and cleaned everything.
So you making an off the wall statement that I definiatly have big trouble was just a guess. Have you ever got down and sniffed your buddies NUTS?
Do you even sniff your own nuts? If you do not, please do not give advise on how someone elses NUTs should smell.

Yes, I have heard nothing but great things about Dr. Hornby's Big Bud, as a Bud Enhancer. The smell kind of surprised me though, but so far the plants seem to be loving it. Time will tell. The smell is not noticeable, unless you put you nose down over the SOUP and take a wiff. The smell is not a good one though. But hey, Cow Shit does not please me either with it's smell either....lol
