I have never used a flower booster before and was thinking of trying one, was wondering what's a good one to use with botanicare pro series? and are they really worth spending the money? I was also needing to know if I do use one, do I take my ppm to where I usually put it at then put the booster in or do I need to lower my nutes to where when I put the booster in it's at my normal ppm that I usually have it at?

Your best bet is to use a fert that has a NPK of 10-30-20 till the last few weeks of flower. The boosters work but will create deficencys if you start too soon. Just add stuff like sugardaddy or sweet to your nutes at first. I like Supernatural Bud Blaster but they all work about the same to me. You are allready using botanicare so I would stick with their products. Good luck wwith your grow show Bro!

i use PBP and have used fox farms powders. thats my recipe, but i just got a freebie of hydroplex, its botanicares p-k booster, its a 0-10-6. what i like about it is it has the gaurenteed analysys of all the micros like molybdenum etc. one thing about any PK boosters is start slow with them, use your standard bloom ferts as normal and go slow, if a bloom boster at 1/2 strength jacks up your ppm then start at 1/4 like you would do at the early stages of a plants life. my main reason for the use of fox farms Beasties(0-50-30) and Cha ching is (9-45-19) is even at 1/4 strength they are plenty potent to make a difference, so a little goes a long way, but more importantly you can use these as stand alone fertilizers, they have plenty of micronutrients, you can get away with using cal-mag and these powders straight up for middle-late flowering
