Never tried it, but when I asked BMO this very question they told me "yes" in an ebb & flow type system, but "no" in a bubbler type system, because it has a kind of 'gel' in the bottom of the bottles, and it can clog your tubes.

I have not used all the BMO products in a hydro set up but I did use Super Plant Tonic in a DIY areoponic system and a DIY DWC system and had no problems with clogs in 1/4" lines,pumps, or srayers. Nor did I see any settlements. I was useing Gernal Hydropnics MaxiGro which is a dry one-part chemical fertilizer. I did not have the same successs with Neptune's Havest orgainc fertilizers.

I have to add that I did have great results with BMO's SPT in my hydro setups. I had lots of fluffy pure white massive roots.

I am currently growing with all BMO products. Having a bit of difficulty at the finish... i have a deficiency of some kind. Check out my grow journal if you want to see more.

My system is DWC with a drip on a timer... i like the SPT and the Grow it Green, but i am not sure the the Flower Power stuff is doing as much as it should. I have some pretty sad yellowing happening.

How far into flowering are you? Are those autoflowering strains? Yellowing of the bottom leaves is normal & good in the last weeks of flowering.

I am 5 weeks into flowering. I just started their flush.

No, they are not autoflowering strains. The healthier one is Sensi Star, and the sadder one is Purple Wreck.

An update for you guys. Been feeling better about the BMO line. Really good stuff when used correctly. I will be using a bit of grow it green with my flower power for the first couple of weeks of flowering. This should ensure that a nitrogen deficiency is not a problem. Also, the veg cabinet is looking fantastic on the Grow it Green and Super Plant Tonic.

My Sensi Star got cut down last night, and it looks fantastic all trimmed up.

Billdo... That Seni Star looks great. I'm glad you got your girls dialed in. The BMO stuff is good, I just think they need to add a little more N to their bloom fert.
.
But, by using some of the grow it green - in the early stages of flowering, you can avoid premature yellowing. I figured that out, the second time I used it.
.
Here is a little feeding chart I put together - it might help someone. It should work for most strains.
.
Hope this helps.... To print it, just click on the attached document, then right click your mouse and hit the print option.

OhSo... i wish i had a daily reputation feeder that would dose you with a fresh supply of rep on set intervals.

Your chart is bad ass. I need to start recording and charting things related to my grow. Basically what you show in that program is exactly what I am trying now with the plants in my veg side right now. A TRANSITION to bloom nutes rather than a SWITCH to bloom nutes should help Mary a great deal by providing nitrogen at this critical juncture of her life.

Have you been using the plan on this chart or is this more for those of us who are having issues?

Yeah, def do a transition instead of just dropping the grow nute, and going to flower. This is true with any ferts that you use, not just BMO. Even though the plant is flowering, they still need a decent amount of nitrogen for the first part of flowering, or your leaves will yellow & fall pretty fast. Just continuely lower the dose of the Grow It Green during flowering.

The only other nutes that I'm using on my current grow is Alaska MorBloom 0-10-10, & Molasses. Everything else I'm using is BMO and I have great results.
