Camk, that will be fine, Greenleaf recommends 1gram a gallon of water,for the BudExplosion, just a little bit over one eighth teaspoon.
I'm was using 7grams of MC, a gallon during veg, I cut back to 3grams of MC, during flowering, maybe 2grams.
Was using 1 and a half gram a gallon of Sweet Candy, thr whole grow.
And 1gram of BudExplosion. It did a good job. Good Luck with your grow.

so i received my bud explosion im thinking of reducing the mega crop to 3g and adding a gram of the pk boost totaling 4g
per gallon

thoughts.......

We use molasses the whole grow, it helps feed the microbes and beneficial bacteria in your soil, similar to a product called Recharge.
Can't promise you it helps with taste, but it sure helps with bud swell.

im thinking i might start adding molasses to the mix now
it should help in taste smell and bud development

Yeah MegaCrop is good stuff , Greenleaf is supposed to be making up a new nutrient guide be cause of the Nitrogen during flowering will definitely reduce your yields.
When it first came out they said to just cut back a little on the MegaCrop during flowering, now the are making a new guide to go by.
But the BudExplosion, does a nice job, as does the SweetCandy.

I for one am sticking with their original idea ..That is only MC is needed..it is/was supposed to have everything in it (including sweetener, bud booster etc.
I already harvested 4 plants flowered with MC and nothing else..Yields were average for my grows (soil with Canna Terra/Ginormous nutes)..potency the same or better imo.
I WILL be adding Cal-Mag and Silica, even though they claim they are also not needed..BEWARE as these companies continue to make/sell products that we really don't need. The Genetics are the real key..Lighting is 2nd and nutes ar only vitamins (3rd in importance, but still needed).

For me..MC's claim to fame is much cheaper with no loss of anything.

an update on the girls im still waiting on the bud explosion from mega crop
should be here this week

[oldjarhead100]

looking forward to seeing results ,I shouldn't have to use any, they are in good soil but I see far to many yellowing leaves
