Everything looking nice and healthy. What kind of water are you using Ackmo?

 

[Ackmo]

I'm just using aerated tap water at this time. The water in my area is pretty good. Although, it is a little on the hard side.

imho Id stay away from the Nitrozime if I were you.it has behavioral stuffs in it for hormone balance and its not gonna be excellently friendly imo.outstanding setup though!! plants look awful purty too!cant wait to see em do their thing man!

Thanks for the input Eyes on Fire. Do you have a suggestion for a kelp extract that might be better suited? I learned about beneficial tea from a famous YouTube grower Koma. I use a slightly different recipe but, Koma always used Nitrozym.

This is what I mostly use and it very effective so far and does me real nice.

and this ive been looking at a bit but aint used it yet.but Im looking for a great all natural kelp powder replacement to the maxicrop I had.which worked also really nice.but I use a bit of kelp meal to my mix as well so I need less of it but that GS Labs is really fine stuff.

if I may..?imho I also wouldnt use the hyrgozyme as a feed or boost either.but thats me.Id brew an Enzyme tea if you want them there as a boost.A4 did an outstanding Enzyme Tea thread in organics a cpl pages back.

From what I understand this tea is designed to help break down the organic materials in the soil. Which would make sense to add hygrozym. As far as the Nitrozym I believe its only added in low dose as a food source for the cultivation of bacteria. I would be willing to try a different brand. I like those links you sent. They are all much cheaper then Nitrozym and I believe the Dr. Earth is available at my local shop.

well imo if you have a cooked living soil those enzymes seek dead materials they can latch onto n eat.imo its slowed my growth when I used it and a more pure enzyme tea will do you better.did me anyways.Ive not had to break down root materials in mo soil short of a 45 days cook an compost cycle time n time again without issue nor toxin build up.so thats why I say to do that is all.over time balancers n so on should be avoided in long term use.thats all.Glad ya like the link and trhere helpful!:Sharing One:

I have to admit I'm really new to all this. I knew I wanted to incorporate some beneficial teas into my super soil grow. I seen someone having success with this recipe and went with it. I am all about listening and gaining knowledge. So again I thank you for your input. I do know from experience my plants love the beneficial teas. They stand straight up shortly after adding them. But, I am open to changing the recipe.

 

[Eyes on Fire]

lol i wasnt trying to say its not effective,cuz it is!but over time there will be a certain amounts of properties in built into your soil imho your going to want to avoid.thats really where I was going with that.thinking well ahead and maintaining the purity(as much as ya can ofcourse)of your soil and the activity.composting certainly.but for growth I disagree is all.but glad Ive given you some things to maybe think on some.take it easy!:Sharing One:

 

[Ackmo]

I'm sorry I'm a little slow at times. I'm having trouble fully understanding what you are trying to say. I do appreciate your knowledge and I want to understand it. Are you saying that hygrozyme and Nitrozym will damage the long term health of my soil? Or that it will slow down growth and production of the plants. Or both?
