When I add koolbloom to my solution should I go full strength flora bloom then add the koolbloom or leave some bloom out? Thanks in advance.

if so, i'll give you a suggestion. try lucas formula. i've used it for about 6 years now. super simple and works great.

8mL micro/16mL bloom per gallon of RO or distilled water. that's it. it will pH itself right around 5.8. you don't need cal, mag or any other supplements. you can use it for veg or flower.

i use it at 5/10 (you just want the 1:2 ratio) because i'm at high elevation and things just don't grow as fast up here.

when plants are small, try 1/2 then 2/4 then 3/6 and slowly work up to the 8/16

2/4 = 1/2 though I'm confused does the added koolbloom really help with yield or is it a scam?

All your fractions are 1/2 if you simplify them so I'm lost as to what you mean can you explain please?

i love lucas formula. look it up. lucasformula.com

how much water do you use a week?

koolbloom is just a PK booster. not needed if your PK is sufficient for the plants needs.

ok. i gotcha.

you use micro at 8mL per gallon. you use bloom at 16mL per gallon. you MUST use RO or distilled water. that's it.

exactly. you use it at a 1:2 ratio. i use at 5/10. the actual recipe is 8/16 micro/bloom mL/gallon.

do you use RO or distilled water? you have to for it to work correctly

Liquid koolbloom is a joke.
But If someone was using the floraseries and wanted to pump up the P and the K later in flower though, just go 0/1/3 or 0/1/4 (G/M/B). It use to be on the bottles
