Interesting mineral content there with 18% calcium and 6% magnesium. I think someone at another forum was testing it and had to cut their grow short. I think it was doing well for the time it was being used.

It's a dry food so the NPK values are going to be higher (Jacks Classic is 20-20-20).
O and if it says hydro nutes can you use it with soil or any medium? would like to see this stuff in action!

Generally speaking, you need a more complete plant food for hydro than dirt. I think the veg+bloom is 'complete enough' to work in hydro and I think it would do ok in dirt too, I just question some of those mineral values. I'd like to see it in action.
id like to see it as well maybe vs dyna gro?.....

Lol apparently ol Homebrewer could make a living at doing Dyna-gro comparisons. There is such a demand... To be honest I'd rather watch the competition between Dyna and another nute than a game of sports, so there- I said it... lol
couldnt agree more lol.

I use 7-9-5 for grow and feel like in hydro that's too much N for flower. However, in the dirt, I use 'grow' more than I use 'bloom'.
Yes, I use it from veg to harvest.
Hey hb glad your home safe and are back!
I was using 1/2 tsp grow and 1/4 tsp bloom on week 4 and the first 3 weeks was 1/2tsp of just grow now onto week 5 I'm getting yellowing I also added a chlorine snatcher filter so I don't know what could be causing it? Any suggestions also using 1/2 tsp of protekt to

If I see yellowing in flower, I drop the bloom and go with 100% grow. 1 tsp per gallon should be plenty to start with and you can dial back from there.

If your using the chlorine snatcher on the water pre nuting it, fine... But I wouldn't use it on the nuted water. Chlorine is actually one of the ingredients of dyna-gro- it's essential to plants in small amounts believe it or not. I don't know exactly what a snatcher is, so I'm gonna google it now..
EDIT: yah, the snatcher used carbon/charcoal- its ok to use to pre-treat the water, but you cannot run your nutes through it otherwise it will absorb some of the elements and would cause yellowing perhaps.
Perfect this is exactly what I'm gna do. I have a whole gallon of bloom hopefully I'll be able to use it with hydro or aero
