has anyone used CNS17 Ripe from Botanicare?

used cns17 grow just to see how it would work seemed to work well had about 12" of growth in week, plants were 24" tall still in solo cup and looked healthy have not tried bloom yet

I have used cns17 grow bloom ripe with cal mag epsom salt hydroplex big bud molasses bud candy this is how I ran it veg grow Epsom salt cal mag flip flop salt and calmg every feeding flower week 1-3 big bud,flower cns 17 ,molasses every 3rd feeding week 4-8 flower ripe 5050 hydroplex 6-8 bud candy 7-9 top booster or shooting powder 8-9,1/2 ripe no flower then flush ....this is a grate line up I think I can hit a gram per watt this run with this line up and over lapping light

I realize this is an old thread, but I've found CNS17 to be a straight forward solution for cannabis, I also suggest using calmag with it to be sure you don't have a cal or mg issue, especially if you use coco coir or LED's, and even more so if you use both! Switching to RIPE at the end is a good idea, the buds swell up nice. I do my water in 15 gallon batches (1 part being 5 gallons) I'll do 2 parts CNS17 and one part RIPE starting about a month into bloom.


diss regard the people who say they got burned by the CNS17 formula. I've been using it for several years without the slightest issue. Unless you count running out! it's very forgiving as a nutrients go, if you're seeing "burning" either your mistaking another issues for nute burn, not shaking it up, got a bad batch, or your doing it wrong.
