Hey y'all, just wanted to get some input & experience from others who might be using or are familiar with NPK RAW Product Line up and if you use or would consider using any of the products in your personal garden, also how you would use it and when...thanks for all feedback Neg/Pos..

I am just beginning to use their products . I am testing their amino acids and their Calcium Magnesium .
I am buying the smallest size , 2 ounces .

If you search the internet for Harley and NPK you can find a lot of answers . Harley has free videos on the internet and I have watched most of his free videos . He works for NPK and is a genius Botanist . I you mix Calcium+amino acids , it is suppose to make plant resistant to white powder fungi . So far I am using just the amino acids because there is already Calcium in my soil . ( I am expecting NPK Cal Mag in a few days ) .
From what I am doing is buy a few , and they work good , buy a few more 2 ounces packs , and eventually I hope all their products work good , in which case I will eventually have their entire product line . They have several sizes to choose from going up to 2 pound bags , which is a massive amount .

P.S. The Amino Acids in my packet , is suppose to open up Calcium Channels in the roots and increases the Calcium up into the plant , to 1000 times more than without certain Amino Acids . The Calcium makes the cell walls of the leaves thicker and something about Pectin . And since this topic involves explaining that Calcium is used to make up bones in the human beings , that if I remember correctly , that more Calcium makes for stronger stalks and stems , which might increase the width of the main stem , if I am correct about what I read or watched in a video . Also , in theory , if you have branches that are drooping somewhat , that it possibly could make the branches lift up and tilt more out and up , as opposed to out and then drooping down . So far from my first test experiment , my branches are starting to go out and up , instead of going out and drooping down ,

So , what I learned from what I read or watched on a video . The Amino Acids and perhaps extra calcium , goes into the soil , and opens up channels in the roots to increase the Calcium uptake into the plants , but I did not learn anything that mentioned Foliar Feeding . So for now I am only adding the Amino Acids diluted with a lot of water , into the soil , with enough liquid mixture to get to the roots ,

This also works in hydroponics , in which case , you have to add not only special amino acids to your nutrient solution , you also need to add Calcium for this to work ; whereas with soil , there is some calcium in the soil , and if so , you might get away with just mixing the Amino Acids to say , a gallon of water , and then water your plant with the diluted solution . When my Raw Cal Mag gets here in the mail , I will test making a solution with the Raw Amino Acids + Raw Cal Mag to see if I get a more noticeable result .

Thanks for the awesome feedback and info Halman9000, I currently use NPK RAW Cane Molasses but was interested in using other products from them and have been watching The NPK Videos on YouTube also checking out there NPK website for other products...definitely would like to compare research as our grows continue & we see the results from using these Products. I am currently running an OG Kush, Tangerine Haze & strawberry Cough Indoor with some of the product's

I thought this post was about just dry nutrients. I see it's about some repackaged dry nutrients I can get for much less many other places.

No I would never pay what they're charging. A quick look and I see they're selling 8 ounces for the same price I can get pounds of elsewhere.

$13 for 2 ounces of water soluble dried molasses? You can buy 2 pounds for $30. Prices are insane.

Hydro is my method. I have used a variety of liquid nutes, like Emerald Harvest (PITA to dispense), but been using NPK for a couple years. First, I just got some amendments, but now use their premixed Grow and Bloom, which simplifies lifeIMG_4159.JPGIMG_4160.JPG

Hi JohnnyGrows . The Europeans figured out the amino acid calcium combo makes the plant protected from fungus. What happened is that the Governments over there outlawed fungicides and over night they lost 40 % of their crops . Ten Years later they figured out the amino acid calcium secret and immediately they went from 40% lost to zero percent loss due to fungus , or white powdery mildew . It took Harley 5 years after that because the Europeans would not tell Harley their secret due to proprietary secrets .

In theory , if the certain amino acids open calcium channels in the roots , it follows that the roots should get wider . Interestingly there are supplements that combine Amino Acids with Calcium , as a method to make human bones stronger ,

Basically , Harley is the reason I am switching to the Raw product line . His ethics involves creating ethics farming so that the runoff from the soil on a farm doesn't pollute the rivers and lakes and ocean , and also he believes that using these new methods and create foods that have medicinal properties , as is now happening with Cannabis and Hemp ,

I am already seeing my stalks and branches widening in theory because the plant in now taking up so much calcium that it forces all of the parts on the plant to get wider to accomidate a higher rate of nutrients , sugar , and water , traveling up and down from soii into the plant and also sugar , carbs , and nutrients travelling back down the plant into the soil .

Awesome feedback Halman9000, I am definitely able to use some of the products that they carry at my local hydro store however they do not carry all NPK products so I will have to order the Micrbos & Enzymes but people are complaining that Its " expensive " yet it ONLY calls for 1/4 TEASPOOn for each 1 gallon... Ive yet to run into Nutrient Burn with my Feeding schedule Along with being able to fix a deficiency without having to add extra nutrients on top as a result your'e able to diagnose & treat properly and quickly with the fast acting FULL UP that really helps plants uptake nutrients along with the other additives you can give !! I feel you only need more then 80z if you are doing major cultivation....however I only do 4-6 plants legally where i am...so I dont need to buy often. More so every couple months...or even every couple runs....

Awesome line up of nutrients PhatNuggz, my local Hydro store only has acouple of those so I have to order my Enzymes & Microbs online however I've tried doing runs without those 2 and still had a great harvest....but when adding the 2 amendments I have seen quicker growth, healthy roots when transplanting & very healthy Stocks (2/3 inch almost full inch) at the end of harvest....great Products would definitely recommend for new growers

I guess if someone wants to compare RAW products in a side by side , scientific comparison . Heck , test em on flowering house plants from the nursery . I think the other issue of which company sells products that are the most ethical in terms of polluting the water ways . He seems like he is very committed to ethical farming . For example , the plants he grows as a food , has a lot of vitamin C in the tomatoes he grows .

I always grow house plants to test along side with Cannabis and compared the results . After all is said and done , Cannabis and tomatoes are both plants .

P.S.

Perlite update ... Started out with 90% perlite and 8% coco coir fiber , Looked great at first , got immediate grow on one species ... Woke up in the morning and some of my plants were too dry and not enough nutrition to make it through the night , Switching and changing to 80% perliite and 20% coco coir fiber . Will see if the coco coir will hold enough water and very diluted nutrients to make it through the day , If this doesn't work will change to 70% perlite and 30% coco coir . Bough a huge bag of perlite for $35 . Eventually I hope to get the exact ratio of perlite and coco coir plus the right strength of very dilute nutrient mix to be correct . I want to maximize the oxygen to the roots and keep perlite content as high as possible , but not too high perlite does't work . Hoping 80/20 works .

P.S.S. Once I have my perlite coco coir mix good enough , and the plants have as much oxygen as possible and the right percentage of coco to hold enough water and nutrients for one day , I will at that point go back to testing calmag + amino acids mix to begin tests again.

Hi JonnyGrows and PhatNuggz . I am transitioning to perlite and coco coir fiber , The first day I was at 90% perlite and 10% coco coir fiber and my plants looked great and one of my stains grew like 2 inches in a few hours , The other strain after I slept and woke up ,a few hours later , looked dry and or under nutritioned , Then I added more coco coir , and then they were to heavy and not enough oxygen ; ( air ) ; Then it dawned on my that I should have soaked the perlite in water and diluted nutrients so that the perlite didn't dry up my plants . Now I am back to 90% perlite and 10% coco coir fiber and everything looked good so far , I used as nutrients , is a block of fertilized coco coir fiber that was pre fertilized at a factory , I have some of all the primary , secondary , micronutrients , plus good fungi and good bacteria , and compost . They compress the mix and let it dry , The reason I am using this all in one nutrient ; coco coir fiber , is that i do not have any experience of buying bottles of nutrients and no experience in adding the right nutrients at each stage of the plant life cycle , I guess it is similar to people that grow in soil that has all the nutrients in it for the entire life cycle of the plant . I am not sure how this will work through flowering ,

I watched a lot of videos about nutrients and which nutrients the plant needs during each stage of the plant's stages ..Right now I am focusing all of my efforts in maximum air , oxygen , provided to the roots , to ensure I do not get root rot and I am focusing on maximizing my root weight , mass , and to grow in the roots the good fungi and microbes ,

So I am only going to be satisfied when I can pick up my pot , and there is 90% perlite , so that it still feels light to lift , after it has been fed with daily doses of water and very diluted all in one nutrient , In my nutrient mix , there are some coir fiber coir , so that I am adding small amounts of mass for the plant to take up , so that as the plant grows it can uptake matter to meet the needs of the plant that increases in mass as it grows , I suppose a plant can aquire mass by sonverting liquid into a solid , not sure about that ,

Hi PhatNuggs . They still have his videos classes for money on their website , He has an internet email address with NPK in the address , so that you can contact him . I guess it is an old email address .

Do you know what his new email address is , or if he is now affiliated with another company ? He still has free videos listed on search engine results . Of course he also has free videos from when he was with another company , but even back then he was using photos of NPK products before he worked for them ,

Thanks , I will check into the info you gave me ,

First, cannabis is a weed. It can grow under extremely stressful conditions (believe me I know :wall:). IMO, the beauty of NPK RAW Grow and Bloom is they provide a very good balance of everything our plants want, without needing Aminos, Microbes, etc, although those both help, I have no idea to what degree. FYI my method is hydro, no idea about ratios for your soil-less mix, but you can ask NPK

Harley's email The only one I have is the npk: worth a try

About 15 years ago , they outlawed fungicides in Europe , and overnight the farmers were losing 40% of their crops . It took the European Botanists 10 years to figure out if they combined certain amino acids with calcium that they could loose 0% of their crops to Powdery Mildew . Because they did not publish these results , Harley went back from Europe to his home and started work on his own and discovered the same thing that the Europeans discovered . He went one step further and discovered things above and beyond what the Europeans discovered , The Europeans wanted to know the extra secrets from Harley and he responded , sorry , It is not for publishing ( HAHA ) , At any rate Harley is into Ethical Farming that will minimize any pollution to the soil and water ways . He says we only know 1% about plant secrets , but he says that at this moment we know enough to feed the world with minimal pollution , and growing food that has vitamins in them and medicinal properties . That is what he is completely dedicated the rest of his life to .

I am currently running an OG Kush, Tangerine Haze & strawberry Cough Indoor with some of the product's
Hi JonnyGrows . I wanted to chime in on growing plants in general . After doing some research on Calcium Nitrate I learned on Wiki that contact with that form of calcium can be unwise do to side effects if it gets into your skin or blood supply . It made me realize that I am now going to wear gloves from now on when I am working on my plants or fertilizer of even handling the growing medium or touching the pots with plants in them . It started my to wonder whether I ever need to wear a high dollar 3M mask to protect my lungs from gases that are emitted during chemical reactiions when mixing ingredients . Anyway , I am using a well ventilated garden area with a good oscillating fan .

No need to reply , since I am somewhat off topic . The topic did get me thinking about these things .

P.S. RAW Calcium Magnesium product uses Calcium Nitrate , Wear gloves when handling Calcium Nitrate ; ( See Wiki Calcium Nitrate ) , As a matter of caution I am now wearing Vinyl or Latex gloves when handling any products used to feed or treat my plants .
