i would use it all the way around, potash, humus, and micro elements are great sources for plant life

Thanks for the help TG, but i have another question.... Is it possible to overdose this stuff?? It's organic, the main component is potassium-humic... The bottle says it's should be used as a foliar feed, but i only mix it up whit the veg/bloom nutes solution, and water the plant whit it...Is it possible that it can cause potassium overfert?? Can too much potassium cause troubles during bloom?? I only use the half of the recommended dose during waterings, because the BioCanna products i use have a potassium content of c.a 5% too....This stuff has a K content of 2%.
There is no sign of any problems, but it would be good if someone could give a little input...:hippy:

yes you can have a toxic levels of nutes

from what i have seen its hard to overdo potasium. potasium is essential for the plants health/immune system

another thing to look at is if you have some problems, it could be due to wrong ph ranges. nutes are available at different ph levels and if they are out of wack it can cause a lockout condition.

what is this stuff exactly, what's the npk value of it. little more info on it

[zebulon]

It has no npk value.... it has a potassium-humic content of 4% which has an organic origin...and micro elements....
It has a overall K2O content of 2%....
Growers around here say that it is a good stuff... as i said, it should be used foliar, but i only water the plants whit it...they seem to like it, but i'm a little worried that it could cause overdose symptoms later during bloom....

I would use it weaker than recommended if you want to experiment with watering it, and watch for signs of the leaf tips scorching.
But as Tex said, Potassium is very useful to plants in all life stages, especially to help floweriing andthe immune system. Personally I'd foliar feed it as recommended, but humic acid is GREAT for your soil so if you can figure out how much to use, you should be able to get benefits from it.
Keep an eye on runoff pH as well, and if you see anything funky going on, flush first and ask questions later.
