The only thing I've been told about the GO line is that you have to use a coarse (larger bubble).

It even says this on the bottle label

http://generalhydroponics.com/site/gh/docs/prod_labels/BioThriveBloom.pdf

I don't know why this is.. someone once told me it was something to do with fermenting but that doesn't make sense to me because you are adding O2 and generally only faculative anaerobes will ferment in the absence of oxygen.. Nonetheless this is what I've heard.. might want to look that up more for yourself

I bubbled with a regular airstone and the GO products...

I would use some dry amendments .. a lot cheaper and just as, likely more, effective.

I like EWC and Guano's personally with bone and blood meal, molasses and a dash of greensand.

im looking to use it as more of a micro boost, and looking to keep it vegan besides the little bit of fish, no guano. dont mind learning how to keep it veg/flower consistant.

Have you smelled the biomarine? That shit will start to stink you out, I'd leave that out if you are brewing inside.. unless you don't mind the smell.

I save the GO mostly for when I don't feel like\don't have time to prepare an AACT (or do something else like transplant). But in the AACT, Alaskan forest humus is excellent, you don't really need the castings you could do either or as the humus has a high bio-diversity... blackstrap molasses (and\or Earth Juice Catalyst), Bio-Weed is fine even the Bio-Root or Bio-Weed (or Diamond Black) wouldn't hurt but not the Bio-Marine, would not recommend that. I use guano in the tea depending on growth stage, young plants don't really need it. Earth Juice Grow\Bloom is all around better for aerating, General Organics is great to just mix and fertigate.

getting it pretty much down to what will be perfect.

5 gallons (added to additional 5) RO

add

Ancient forest - 4 cups

subculture m -1/2 tablespoon

subculture b - 1/2 teaspoon

Bioweed(kelp) - 15ml

organic mollasses - 15ml

diamond black(humic acid) - 15ml

bio bud - 15ml (bud only)

P-K booster organic but also vegan? anyone know?

this is not ment to be a feeding tea. its my version of a super bennificial tea. use it every third watering. if you wanted to make it into a complete tea, you could add guano with the ratios of your liking i suppose. i am looking into an organic p-k booster for this tea for flowering.
