Old Reviews NPK Industries RAW -nutrients

[MedGrower]

Hey!

I just happened to notice that a store close to me has acquired some new nutrients and additives by NPK Industries. It appears they are called "RAW = Soluable". Some of the products in that line seemed really interesting for me, these would be:

RAW Phosphorus (I think CANNA Aqua -line might need a little bumb of that?)
RAW B-vitamin (Also has magnesium, might be a good supplement and stress reliever for blooming?)
RAW Calsium-Mag

Does anyone have experience with these? Should I bother to try these? I would post a direct link to the manufacturer but I am not sure if that would be against the rules of this forum. Any thoughts on this, tips, positive and negative would be highly appriciated.

Thanks Med..I'll be checking back and see the input on your post..Sounds like those could be nice additives if needed..

Thanks

Some update on this topic:

I went out and got some of their phosphorus, potassium, calmag and cane molasses.

Obviously my aim is to bumb up my usual CANNA AQUA -nutes for the early flowering with some extra phosphorous since their blend doesn't have all too much of it. I plan to do it for just the first 3 weeks of the flowering and the last week of vegetative phase. Then for the later part just add a little bit more potassium as a boost.

I did think of using cane molasses as a curious little experiment at the very end of flowering to try to boost the late bud production. Cane molasses is a good source of food for beneficial microbes in your reservoir but the interesting thing about it that it gives the nitrate eating microbes an advantage and they will flourish and eat the nitrogen -nitrates away. My thinking is that I would never add this on early stages or not even in the middle way of generative period because you need the nitrogen -nitrates, but since any remaining nitrogen is more of a thing you would like to be rid of just before harvest, wouldn't it be a cool thing to have your friendly little microbes eat them for you?

Bump, I started using the NPK line when my soil became more and more coco. I make my own fertilizer now. I started really low and still only use small amounts like 1/8 or 1/16 teaspoon per gallon, but I have used full strength and the plants seem to take it just fine. $$$IDK, about $10 for 2 oz which makes 800 gallons. I was just looking for an 0-10-10 and couldn't find one so I just bought the P and the K packets. I liked it so much I think I now have everything they make. I make a really nice elixer which has everything in it except N,P,K and cal mag. I love being able to put together a nutrient specific blend with my chosen ratios instead of having to switch brands if I read something on the internet about what I just bought and lose interest in the fertilizer. So if you want to go with the bible and make a 3-1-2 for veg or a 1-4-5 for flower you can piece of cake. I spent a lot of time on Youtube watching the Harley Smith videos and he kind of got me excited about coco and nutes since mostly I have always been for the most part organic, But it was starting to become a religion and I ended up spending too much money on hard to find "natural" sources of this and that and crazy things. I've heard the calmag if you use it is best mixed by itself with an equal part of the amino acids. And the dried kelp is good when mixed with humic acid at 5 to 3 ratio. Just what I have been told. I bumped this because now that I'm using them I was looking for others opinions. Personally I wouldn't waste my time on the veg or bloom packet because I don't know for sure what is in them or the ratios.
