GH Flora Series supplements

[Nute]

Ordered Liquid KoolBloom, Floralicious Plus, and FloraNectar, going to start them on Sunday when I do a water change.

Very good choice you won't be disappointed

I wouldn’t recommend the Flora Nectar in a DWC setup. The sugars will muck up your air stones.

 

[NickyChicks]

Obi-Wan Well that's a bummer. Is there a similar product that won't do that or is it inevitable with any sweetener type supplement?

 

[NickyChicks]

Now after doing some reading, I'm going to hold off on use the FloraNectar. From what I understand, it's not even beneficial for the plant because it doesn't absorb it in a DWC. I'll hang onto it and use it in a different medium where it would be beneficial. I messaged GH to get a better understanding but they haven't got back to me.

Soil or Coco mix. Anything that flowers and you have to hand water LOL. I was using flora nova bloom in my soil during flower but ran out and so did my store

 

[Nute]

How did you like the floranova grow and Bloom I was thinking about changing over to that I now use the Flora trio

 

[SoOrbudgal]

I only used the bloom booster didn't use the grow. Flora nova bloom I thought it was fine, i'm no expert on these products I've only used these since finding this site. I'm and old mix my own soil don't use much grow products except indoor. My outdoor mix is smelly good has enough stuff full 3-4 months without adding much to it. Sorry got carried away talking to myself LOL . Anyhow I liked it fine LOL

My suggestion would be to substitute with Epsom Salt. The Flora Nectar is just Magnesium & Sulfur with Sugar. Epsom Salt is Magnesium Sulfate so it’s magnesium and Sulfur without the sugar. You can pick it up at any pharmacy, just stay away from anything that has added fragrances. 1-1.5 grams per gallon is a good dose. I run mag/sulfur from the first signs of pistils up until week 5-6, it’s the first thing I cut when I start lowering my EC.

 

[NickyChicks]

Awesome, thanks for the advice. I think I may have some Epsom salt on hand, if not I'll pick some up tomorrow.

 

[NickyChicks]

Floralicious plus smells pretty strong and not all that pleasant. It's also very dark almost like ink. Not the supplement I would have chose to splatter all over myself but sometimes that's how it goes 😂

I have 2 towels and a folded rug outside my tent I use them daily LOL wiping up splashes on my tent floor or me

 

[NickyChicks]

Oh yeah! I have 2 towels and a roll of paper towels handy.
