Anyone Know about Botanicare Pure Grow?

[kdspecial]

I have some Botanicare Pure Grow Nutrients. On the bottle it says use with every watering But I have read most growers Add NUtes every third watering etc.

Plus I think Botanicare is designed for Coco based growing and I am using soil. Should I do what the bottle says or do what most do and feed every third watering.

The Bottle is Pur Blend pro Grow 3-1.5-4

It says for seedlings to add 7ml to a gallon. My plants are 2 weeks old and Im thinking of adding 2.5 to 5 ml of this stuff to a gallon.

So what do you think with every watering or every 3rd watering, Or what signs do I look for in the plant so it can tell me to feed or not to feed?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

thanks Kindly

I use botanicare products. I'm in soil. I feed every watering. Some fert companies have different mixes listed for people who like to water every 3rd watering or every time- and obviously if you fertilize 1x/week you'd be using a stonger solution than someone who feeds 3x/week. It all evens out. I say feed weaker, more often. Then you have nice even levels for your babies.

yeah thats sounds easier to then I dont have tpo keep changing the solution in and out of my spray bottle.

thanks for all the help

If you dont mind me asking At what point do you start using nutes on your plants? 2 or 3 weeks or 4 nodes? And how many ml per gallon do you start at? a full 7ml? for your small plants.

Thanks for everything Stinky For this help plus other help you gave me heres my newer setup as compared to the older one that you saw a month ago. These guys are 2 weeks old now. (Thus why im getting ready for Nutes) I have tried this one with Homedepot Lighting. TO see the diffrtence. So far they grow slightly slower but its still pretty good for less than half the cost.

Bonicare pro grow is what the hydro guy at the shop reccomended. He said it was one of their best sellers. He said I should feed with every watering since I only water her once a week at half strength for the first two waterings...to see how she does. She is at full strenght now and seems to be looking great with her once a week feeding.

Sweet.. yeah I water about twice a week. The solution I have made right now is. 2.5ml per gallon. (I have not actully used this in the plants I have only given the plants water till now) Im thinking of starting with this and even watering it down a tiny bit cuz im nervous. (or giving some more than others) I am gonna wait a bit still though maybe 3 weeks. The little round set of leaves (the first sprout leaves) have started to go yellowish I dont want this to continue up my plants from lack of nitrogen (If thats what makes the sprout leaves turn yellow). I just repotted the plants so the soil will stay wet for a while. I bet they will be about 2.5 weeks when i need to water again. SO im thinking about using the mix i ahve already made (2.5 ml per gallon) at that time. just to be safe

Im gonna use the "More Is Less" philosphy this time. After my Nute burned Stunted plants in my first grow.

that and Fox farm are my favorite nutes.
I use Big Bloom from Fox farm.
Also ,Sweet and Liquid Karma from Botanicare.
But I use organic soil with nutes in it.
So mostly use Big Bloom and a little bit of the other 2 additives.
This nute combo is giving mre the tastiest most potent frosty buds I ever grew.
I think it's mostly from the Happy Frog soil I'm using.
Huge buds and lots of sappy chrystals.
Sweet organic thc smell!
My Black Bubba smells like sweet Coffee.

I use power plant/power flower combo that they make so I don't know your mix offhand, but starting at 1/4 what the bottle says is always very safe.

I fertilize first by nodes rather than age. 3 or 4 pairs of adult leaves.

i use canna nutes and feed themn every day. About 200-250ml of water with the recommended strenght. No issues, plants are lovin it.
