Testing Beneficial Bacteria in Ebb and Flow (AK47 with Great White)

Fulvic acid acts as a refiner and transporter of organic materials and cell nutrients.Whenever minerals come into contact with fulvic acid, in a water medium, they are naturally dissolved into an ionic form. These minerals literally become part of the fulvic acid itself. Once the minerals meld into the fulvic acid complex, they become bioactive, bioavailable, and organic. Thus, when elemental minerals are transformed into an organic state, through a natural chemical process involving fulvic acid and photosynthesis, they are safe to be used by both humans and animals. Bibliography for fulvic acids

Interesting link, so is there a distinction for food-grade fulvic acid or can I take a swig of floralicious?

homebrewer, any experience or thoughts on Dyna-Gro K-L-N rooting concentrate?
I have no experience with it though I'd like to try it. I use a touch of superthrive and DG bloom formula when I'm taking cuttings and I can't remember the last time a clone didn't root.

I have no idea to be honest but I wouldn't drink floralicious plus personally. Too expensive :oops:. .
 
I Have been using the floralicious Plus the 2nd and 3rd week in flower so far and I can definitely smell the difference. I'm also running 2 plant's with botanicare pbp / protekt / flora + / hydroplex and 2 with Dyna-Gro / protekt / flora + / hydroplex. and alternating with just water and molasses. So far they both look good! What do you think HB?

Well I just finished chopping and trimming the AK47 in this grow and they’re hanging to dry as I type. I started on Sunday (day 63), couldn’t do any yesterday due to work, and finished up the other half today. Things look pretty chunky so I’m excited to see what the yields tell about Great White and possibly beneficial bacteria in general.

Below are pics from Sunday before I started harvesting. I should have some final numbers in about 2 weeks along with my opinions about Great white and I may even post a video of the final weighing, haven’t decided yet.

In regards to wrapping this journal up with the final numbers, I mentioned in the first post that I’d like to donate a sample or two to fellow forum members who have been following along for review. If you’re interested in reviewing the product and have a safe address that UPS can deliver to, contact me and we’ll work out the details. The sample(s) will be sent out during the last week of this month.

Just beautiful as always my brother...you ALWAYS have gorgeous plants....striving to catch up to you and you are helping me accomplish this....

really curious as to the final numbers as well...also thinking that a soil grow comparison would tell much as well...gonna use solely dyna products on my next grow with some sat doms...aside from a lil big bloom here and there for the medium...gotta a gallon of the stuff and plants seem to enjoy it...gonna pm you the info on the strain choice for your evaluation

Wow looks awesome homebrewer. Thanks so much for the informative threads. I've made the switch to dyna-grow, and will be comparing its results to my old GH program. I'm adding cal-mag to my dynagrow at 3ml per gallon, because of RO water. Did you have to add any Cal or mag?

HB, I'm curious about your decision to harvest at day 63. I see some white pistils still coming in, does this mean you could have gone longer if you wanted to? Have you done some ak48 grows for longer?

I also use RO for both soil and dirt and DG has a product called magpro which I believe they recommend when using RO. I do not use Magpro in the dirt and they still turn out great (seen below).

I harvest when I see a combination of things; cloudy trics, 75% red hairs and swollen calyxes. These AK47's from Serious seeds sometimes go a touch longer, 64-67 days so this is pretty normal for these cuttings coming from my mother.

Yeah, i don't think he meant any disrespect. If he did, I don't know what to say other than that the files are down-res'd 80% so they can be uploaded to the interwebs. Normal pics are far too large to upload to most sites.

saving up for my dslr....i am interesreted in the canon...are you pleased with the nikon? is it the 40?

Namaste'
It's a handful of models up from the 40, though I don't think they make the 40 anymore. I had a canon point and shoot and went Nikon for the dSLR because of their glass and ease of use. You can lose with either Nikon or Canon.
