cheers

Check out a video on growersunderground.com called "The Great Phosphorous Myth"

PK 13/14 booster formulations were designed for fruit and vegetables eons ago. These formulations while sufficient are not the correct ratios for our ladies.
Check it out.:bigjoint:
 
definatly befor bro. , got some shooting powder here, not to sure whether to use ir not as i dont see why they want us to use the shooting powder in the last 3 weeks and then if you added PK or H&G top booster (quite the same) at start of week 5, but i dont see how all the (P) (K) wont have an effect on overall taste, as im usally flushing in the last week

i would also like to heaer some feed back from this product
 
sup hoady,

its been a while since i did but i actually ran it after and didnt see much boost there was new growth but i think before is deffo the way to go. be a while before i can try it before tho.

keep us posted if you wouldnt mind!
 
jus chillin DGT
im in 3rd week of flower atm, def keep ya updated
im curiouse on how you flush'd yours are you in coco?

how much new growth?(very noticable?) do you think it added any extra weight? would you try it again an how did you ise it as recomended?\
 
yeah im in coco and flushing just as normal man bout 5 days just minimum feed like a couple of ml . you shouldnt water totally nute free as it kills your micro organisms, if your re using the coco.

yeah there was a definate boost how much i couldnt really say to be honest but a noticeable boost (i wished id done it sooner).

yeah used as recommended tho trying to get the dose right was a nightmare i ended up just using a plastic teaspoon per 5L in the end as i was running out. i will definately be buying it again though
 
yeh i think coco is fukin awsome!
no i dont re use the coco.....

cyco silica
H&G shooting powder

last 2 feeds huge run to waste PH'd feed no nutes 10 liter run off, im in 55liter pots
 
like the style! ok well it depends on your school of thought on the pk13/14 i generally start low ish haha at 3.4-4 weeks from expected finish allowing for the usual week over. if you choose to run the two together id lower the amount of pk.

if you have clones and are able to do a side by side go for it. try one with both & one sequentially.

sorry that wasnt the clearest hahah

im acually going to change the PK 13/14 to pro-PK as it has more usable potassium and is way cheaper for more concentrated 1 liter of proPK weighs 100g more then 1 liter of PK13-14

did you add your A + B first then shooting powder or shooting powder 1st then A + B to aquired E.C

how did u make up you feed
 
did you find it had an effect on flavour?

was there noticable differancece!

im about to start using it next feed

does it put your PH right up when useing?
 
yeah definately saw a lot more new growth but to be honest i used it to late. it made new sprots out of the buds like foxtails but they were pretty underdeveloped by time i chopped a week or so earlier thered have been a lot more.

no effect on the flavour. im in coco so flushing is generally not a long affair like soil.

i never check my ph so cant help you there man. i just assumed that it would bump the EC up so i cut down on the other stuff i was feeding A+b purple max / pk 13/14

i wshould have done a side by side but knowing i would be losing out on some i didnt haha
 
i have a quick question about PK 13-14. i read a lot of people use this in week 3 of flower, but the instructions say use it 3 weeks before the harvest date. i have never used this stuff so im not sure. i have looked at grows that it has been used in week 3 and looked at grows that it was used 3 weeks before harvest and saw no difference so does it really matter when you use it?
 
i know people use it at like 1/4 dose working up to full at the 3 week mark for a week then drop it i wouldnt use it right at the beginning of flower youll just fry your babes


i generally start at half ish dose about week 5
