Its normal, Just shake them well before each use. No worries

Yeah, I have this happen more with my Super Plant Tonic than the others, though the Flower Power does it too (I think from the molasses...not sure about that one though).

If I haven't used them in a couple days I like to screw the cap on tight and give them all a good shake, just to keep the little guys in there alive and kicking.

I was reading a thread (maybe this one, can't remember) where Ohsogreen recommended pouring Super Plant Tonic into an empty bottle periodically to help the micro-organisms. I haven't tried this yet, but once I get an empty SPT bottle I will.

Just watered my sprouts with 1 1/2 tsp of SPT in a soilless mix. Hope this doesn't burn them. Been trying to read this whole thread to learn and it definitely sounds like BMO is where it's at!

Im totally hooked on BMO. There arent a lot of organic hydro growers out there so I thought Id post some of my progress with BMO hydro. My grow is all BMO, except for the pH down (I use technaflora, nitric acid based product). Im using Grow it Green and Super Plant Tonic right now and have noticed that you really dont need the recommended levels for hydro at all.

Many people suggest that hydro needs 1/2 of the concentrations described on the BMO bottle. However, Ive gotten nice results with 1/4 concentrations (or using 1/2 concentration less often). I use the term "hydro" broadly when in fact it may depend a lot on the type of hydro system you have. I have a 6 plant large DWC, perhaps its more efficient with nutes than other systems.

Im still in the veg phase but Im keeping good records so Ill come up with an optimized BMO hydro nute schedule when Im done. I posted some pics below:

Pic 1 - plants recovering in a mini DWC cloner after a soil grow gone wrong
Pic 2 - two weeks in the mini DWC
Pic 3 - moved to the large DWC (still 2 weeks)
Pic 4 - 21 days
Pic 5 - 24 days
Pic 6 - mg deficiency at 24 days (common problem with BMO, easily fixed with epsom salt and pulverized dolomite lime added to the res)
Pic 7 - 28 days
Pic 8 - nice healthy roots

Im starting the flower at day 35, you can follow my BMO grow using the link in my sig.

I am growing in ProMix BX, would the fertalizer chart that Ohso put up work for this sort of medium? and if so how often do i water or feed because alot of the big fan leaves on my 5 week into flowering plant are going straight yellow with brown spots.

I ordered three bottles of the super plant tonic from BMO. I received an email stating that they sent out my order 2 days late and for their mix up they would be sending me a bottle each of the GIG and FP. Today I received my order and like they stated they sent me two free units. BMO is the BOMB!!!

My ladies had a rough start to life then bmo came along look at them now....
I usually feed, water with SPT, water in that rotation. I feed with GIG and some FH then wait till the pots dry out add in a solution of water with SPT, and the following time the pots dry out I give the plants a good watering.

BMO works well

OK ive decided to go with these for my first grow. Which should I use with the BMO line, soil or coco? I'm more concerned with quality over quantity as I am just growing for myself.

Also, are the super tonic and the foliar nutes realy necessary? Do they help versus just the GIG and FP?

Use soil, people say BMO doesn't work in coco. Just get something organic with good drainage. I've been using ocean forest with mine.

SPT is very important, but the foliar harmony not so much.
