Floranova bloom HELP PLEASE!!...

Could anyone help me??
I recently purchased some floranova bloom and had read that it could be used at 8mil/gal i.e. lucas method..
The problem i have is that first of all floranova bloom when looking it up online has 4% calcium.. mine is 5.5% same with mag.. online it states 2% mine is 3.5%.. are there two different bottles going around?? Also lucas states 8mil/gal but max strength on the back of my botle says 14mil to 10 litres.. wich equals like 4mil/gal so should i really be going over the recomended dosage as lucas states or is that a load ofhogwash??

you sure it's the floranova line?

4-8-7 on the label.

it's also floranova bloom, maxibloom, you can even do it with cutting edge solutions micro/bloom.

Yes 4-8-7 general hydroponics floranova bloom.. im completely stumped on this lol..

are you in the US?

Mine also has 5% sulfur and not 2% as it states online... why would they have two different bottles??

No uk but i bought it off ebay

maybe a different formula for non US ?

either way, more of Ca, Mg, Su are all good things.

and to answer your other ?, start off at maybe 2mL/gal and work your way up to 8mL/gal if your plants can handle it.

just shake the crap out of that bottle before you add to res.

it's really great stuff. but thick.

Thanks for the help its really appriciated.. but i thought nute companys always recomended more as thats what makes you buy more lol.. thats why i was stumped to see lucas recomending double the maximum on my bottle

every strain and grow is different. i'm at high altitude and my plants burned at anything higher than 4.5mL/gal.

I think they have us and eu version with different mineral contents.. quite bizzare.. do you have same bottle as mine or is yours the other one.. il just go low and see how they take it.. probly ignore the recomendations on the botle an work it out myself lol

mine was the online numbers.

always start low and work your way up. watch the plants to tell you what they can handle.

Ok thanks buddy.. have you been using it long and do you use bloom alone or other addatives if you dont mind me asking

i used it for a few years. i switched over to GH maxibloom. powder is cheaper. but basically same npkcamg.

only additive i use is a fulvic, humic, micro and kelp dry powder too. bioag cyto plus.
