What's the product that's alleged to be just sugary water?
Bud candy form An and most bloom boosters are exactly that.

Lol, I've never realized the ingredients are listed on the bottles...
Jpgrow420 is exactly right, overdrive for example is potassium and phosphorus.
You could mix that your self from the same sources doesn't seem to be any secret ingredient.

carbs are sugars b
dont get on the hate train too fast. some carbo load products do help with flavours. more important they feed the micro organisms in the soil. depends how/what you wana use.

Cool, I always was under the impression molasses was a bloom booster too but that info is old this point, Jorge Cervantes bible.

I’m still waiting on a answer to this question. Not from any anti-flushers.
Well i just used florakleen bc my ec and ppm levels were extremely high when i checked the runoff water. I used it one time and then went back to using my nutrients. Make sure you are giving your plant regular water in between feeds. Theres no need for it unless your levels are very high. My PPM was 2900 nd ec was like 3.4, i used florakleen and the levels went down to 1800 ppm and 2.200.

I know your supposed to flush with the lowest ppms possible , just bought this new product called florakleen similar to sledgehammer and tested its ppms which came out to read 375 ... is this normal should I continue to use florakleen?
What is the reason you are flushing the plants for. between cycles of nutrient changes, nutrient lockout or end of harvest . It wont hurt your harvest, if you give the right measurements it will lower ec&ppm,only use if ec&ppm is extremely high and u need to fix the plant immediately, if the levels are just a little high give the plant regular water for the next couple days, It doesnt hurt to use b4 harvest but i dont think it makes a big difference.

This guy also said he had root bound plants in 5 gallon pots of coco. So take that with a grain of salt

:eyesmoke:
Well he could be growing in FoxFarm CoCo which is a mix of coco&soil. my plant is all roots bc it was too late to transplant but its a 3 gallon pot, I can see it being rootbound in a 5 gallon as well. Just have to keep an eye on the levels constantly.

That's not how ppm and EC relate.

EC is a universal measurement and ppm is a number derived from EC based on the scale you are talking about. The three ppm scales used are Hannah 500, Eutech 640, and Truncheon 700 scales.

EC * scale = ppm reading

So if you had an EC reading of 3.4 on the Hannah 500 scale your ppms would be:

3.4 EC * 500 = 1700 ppm

And reversed if you had a reading of 2900ppm that would be 5.8 EC.

Root bound in a 5 gallon air pruning pot, seriously?

Using flora kleen for high ec isn't the best approach, rinse it with diluted nutrient then use a lower overall ec until your run off is acceptable.
