I got some of this all in one nute heard good things about it so going to try it out with my next round of plants. Stay tuned for a full week by week review on this product. I ordered 1lbs of the Dirty formula. Lets this thread be a location for people to get info on this nute, ask questions, share experiences ect.

With my tap water, I could never get my water to 1 EC before the pH got too acidic. I never tried the Veg/Bloom RO. Was pretty easy to use...

Having to adjust ph is a normal thing for me so not a big deal imo. Simplicity to the reason i am trying this out. Thanks for sharing.

I have been using Veg+Bloom for about 3 years. A pound lasts me a long time. I have been happy with it. Prior i was using the Fox Farm line of fert. Veg+Bloom to me worked better then Fox Farm because it is gentler on the plants. With Fox Farm I would sometimes burn my plants because some plants are more susceptible to over fertilizing. At first I would only use Veg+Bloom and was happy that I didn't have to change fert and it was simple. Last year I bought a pound of their +Size. I'm on the fence about that one. It is very acidifying with my water I can't use the recommended level. I don't know if +Size makes a difference. Since I have lots left I'm probably going to use it up even though I feel it messes up my fertilizing schedule. When I started using their products they only had one Veg+Bloom, now i use their dirty version of it because i grow in soil.


Bottom line I can only give my opinion vs. fox farm. No experience with others. But I am happy with it. when


Happy growing.

Love the Dirty formula for bloom. Increased yield and terpines over technaflora that i used for almost a decade. Tried the Push foliar spray, used as directed 3x and noticed nothing so stopped. I also use Maxigrow in veg instead of Dirty. Used Dirty in veg for awhile but the Maxigrow makes the girls greener, bigger and healthier.

Thanks for contributing. I have not started the Dirty yet. Plants are still going on whats in the soil.

Did my first watering with V+B Dirty today on my new round of ladies. Here are my first thoughts and what i did. Following the directions i added tap water to my ro water to bring ec to about .3 i use ppm so i mixed to 175ppm, started with a light feeding at .25 tsp recommended is .5-1.5 tsp. This combo got me 317ppm. The powder nutes mixed right away and totally dissolved with no issues. Ph was 6.9 after mixing lowered it to 6.3. So far so good, i am liking it, simple and fast. We will see how the plants like it.

Hey no trolls selling their products here. Im not selling anything and am in no way connected to Hydroponics Research. Thus thread is purely my review for others looking for info and results. New member with 1 post and selling their crap bloom booster nutes. Pk on that is a joke imo.

 

[intenseneal]

Ah thank you mods for removing that last troll post.

Ending 9th week of flower. Man I am impressed with this nute. For veg and flower it rocks. Made some nice big fat frost buds. Will get some pics up on here, i have a bunch in the 600w club thread already. These nutes are highly under recognized. Kept my pla ts nice and healthy with no real issues, PGSCxAC was wanting heavier N in late veg and flower heavier feeding for that strain will help out. For soil Veg+Bloom Dirty is awesome. Other nutes adding include Botanicare CalMag and Raw Sweet and GH Liquid Kool Bloom.
