SunShine#4 - Use Botanicare Soil Bloom?

Was reccomended by someone I consider to be the smartest at growing herbs to use Botanicare's Soil Bloom (1.5-4-5) instead of Botanicare's Hydro Bloom (2.5-2-5)

Which do you guys use for soil-less mixes?

I've been supplementing with Liquid Karma and starting today (8 days into bloom) added 5 ML per gallon of Nitrozime which will bring up my P quite a bit.

Anyhow, just wanted some opinions... right now I'm using the Soil Bloom as instructed. Sunshine#4 acts quite a bit like soil but is obviously not a true soil mix.

It's a good bloom nute that has twice the P of the hydro nute, so they say to use it for the second half of hydro flowering. You could use it all the way without difficulty.

HTH

Yeah I usually mix the grow and bloom at 50\50 for the first week of transition, and then hammer 'em with Nitrozime and the soil Bloom

yup, during the transition I mix the hydro grow with hydro bloom, then switch to the soil bloom.

you just like the numbers better on the hydro for beginning bloom?

yes, gives them more of a transition period. just the way I always did it.

I usually mix grow soil\bloom soil during the first two weeks of flowering .
