floranova bloom is lucas formula basically.

i loved it for a while until it started to get lots of solids at the bottom of the bottle. then i went to maxibloom and haven't looked back.

I always thought that it was like Lucas Formula but wasn't sure! Hmmm I think I may give the Maxibloom nutes a run for my next grow, is there a specific line I should look at getting or just Maxigrow and Maxibloom?

yeah, i think GH realized how many growers were using Lucas and came up with floranova bloom for them. i really liked it until i found all the solids at the bottom of the bottle.

i personally use maxibloom from start to finish but JSB sounds like he uses maxigro and then transitions to maxibloom.

i like to be pretty exact with my nutes and EC so i did buy a small digi scale to weigh out maxibloom. i go from 1 gram/gal to somewhere in the 3 to 4 range depending on how the plant reacts.

I don't know how it compares to using bloom during veg, but it's certainly not going to do them harm .Let us know how they compare, if you try the Maxigro.

I've used flora trio, AN Sensi, botanicare cns17 and they all suck compared to dynagro foliage pro and dynagro bloom. Make it easier on yourself and get the dynagro, one bottle for veg and one bottle for bloom

Or say fuck water in bottles

If you compare the bottles of GH to the dry concentrate, what is cheaper?
And to which ratio? Half as cheap?

IMHO, I think the liquids and salts are about the same, even though some people claim that with liquids, you're paying for water.

The first grow with my new build, I used GH Floro Trio (liquid). This grow I'm using GH Maxi (salts). Both cost me about the same amount, and I had about the same left over after harvest. If salts go so much further than liquids, where you supposedly pay for water mixed with nuts, then liquid nutes would either cost much less, or people just wouldn't be buying it. And, I think there would be a lot of opposition on using liquid nutes, here in the forums, but I haven't seen it.
