    damn almost equally split, I should have asked hydro vs soil as well..


    interesting

    Organic and Soil - not sure how you would do hydro and organic - most organic additives are pretty viscous and would gum up the works.....

    there is no such thing as organic and hydro, not in the US anyways. The powers that be (usda) has already came out against it numerous times. Unless they have updated standards which i usually hear about


    But you can have soil and conventional, I think that would be an interesting issue. To see how many of you dirt guys are organic vs conventional. But even that, anyone that uses a boaster is most likely going to fall into the conventional category (i'm not sure if any organic boasters actually work...but not an organic guy myself)

    Agreed. as for boosters I use Molasses, liquid Kelp and now I'm experimenting with Alaska More Bloom. The first two would fall in to the organic category but I'm not so sure about the More Bloom I think that one is quasi organic. For that matter I don't think the cal-magic I started using is truly organic. Interesting pole:redbong:

    I don't think the USDA would consider my use of Hot Shots in the garden very organic either... :flipando:

    Bloom Khaos from NFTG is the only thing I use that I would consider an actual booster. It is a calcium facilitator that helps speed up Calcium intake by as much as 5 times.


    The NFTG line is calcium based, so it relies heavily on the use of their Liquid Bone Meal and Liquid Fish Bone Meal, for Bloom Khaos not to fuck your plants up.


    My Super Soil uses both as an amendment, so it will work with some heavier soils, too.


    Molasses is just food for the soil pretty much. It helps the plants, but not as much as it helps what's beneath the ground IMO.

    Anything high in potassium and phosphorus and low N will act as a bloom booster. Molasses is a good way to add plant ready potassium. In my garden it's generally Dramm O plus molasses.


    The molasses also gives any soil fungi a boost which in turn boosts the plant's uptake of nutes. That's a good thing during flower.:thumbs-up: The additional mg in molasses also aids the plant in using up the last traces of N in the soil.


    Used Morbloom side by side with Dramm O/molasses with no noticable difference in final bud weights. Morbloom is not OMRI certified...but then again, like Duc said, neither are the no pest strips that hang in there 50% of the time.

    It's true that Molasses can act as a booster. I was just thinking of a booster as something that is forcing things to happen instead of just helping them along.
