While at the local grow store getting a net pot I decided to look around. I am using the cyco nutes platinum series kit. I opened the one at the grow store and it contained a bottle of sugar rush. So I ran home to find mine doesn't even contain that supplement. Do I need some sort of sugar stuff because I have botanic are sweet berry I used on my first grow! Should I add this some one with experience please weigh in!
Thanks in advance
 
that stuff is basically sugar water, if you really want to use stuff like that I would save my money and just make it myself. Sugars are used for feeding bacteria and fungus, hopefully good kinds, and to help flush salts from the system. I wouldn't bother, and if I did as an experiment I would just use sugar water or molasses water.
 
Get yourself some unsulphured blackstrap molasses for the end of the cycle for the flush. It will be better than the sugar water from the grow store. Use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon per gallon of water. Microwave a cup full of water for 30 seconds before mixing to make it easier, then pour that into the gallon.
