Indoor Does bud factor X make your bud taste funny?

[Yozhik]

That grow shop has some seriously good salesmans!! @Yozhik

I've spent a small fortune there!
They know taking a small hit on the Bud Factor X will reap long term gains.
Besides, my daughter and their dog are friends - so I have emotional leverage!

... I too like what I see in the results,... just keep in mind it's terpenes/resins that are boosted, not cannabinoids... Of course, the terpenes are what give each strain it's buzz nuances, so elevated levels of them may in fact seem to magnify the effect of the THC, particularly ones that affect brain-blood barrier- ....now, admittedly I haven't run my own test group experiment using BF-X, which would require clones + "all other things being equal" parameters, and both test and control groups-- few do, given what this would take resource-wise! .... but before I bought it, I looked and asked around for peep's that have solid familiarity/mutli-grows with favorite strains that have tried it, and most all said it made a significant difference, even accounting for pheno' variations,... generally, I'm much more of Yozhik's frame of mind on products too, as the canna' industry is rife with snake-oil BS products!

Yeah I see so many people slate AN saying it's snake oil. Yeah i agree some of it is pointless but the rest is quality in my eyes

So what is regarded as snake oil and what is regarded as essentials from AN by the AFN family ? if you guys are using Bud Factor X from week 2 of flower through to flush say at that point are you dropping Big Bud ?

I've never really felt comfortable using Nirvana.
Snake Oil? Can't say that.
But just never really found out how to use it efficiently and effectively.

I "personally" use big bud up until 20 days before chop, then switch to overdrive for 10 days, then flush for 10 days.

Rough example, say you switch to flower nutrients around day 35 and you have a 75 day plant.

Big Bud 35 to 55
Overdrive 56 to 65
Flush 66 to 75

If you're new to this, you can check this out. It's affordable to get your started. You'd honestly have to drop a large chunk of change to use the schedule that I'm on.

I mix and match certain things that I think perform better or suit my needs better. I use both grow and bloom nutrients, the connoisseur line. Yes, connoisseur is a step up from the sensi line and will work just fine. Am I an avid AN user? Yes and no. I believe they make an incredible product, but I also dabble with a lot of other stuff on the side that I don't document here.

Are you growing in soil? I can post a feed schedule on here when I get home.
