Totally would not have smoked the way it does without a helping hand here from Clearex, I use this stuff habitually even throughout the entire grow cycle when I think their is a build up of salts and leftover nutrients or in between nutrient changes. When I have the ability to I DO test my ppm throughout the flushing cycle and the numbers speak for themselves, though with this grow I did not have the opportunity to do so.

I actually bought this from a local shop as a replacement for Monster Bloom Pro when I ran out and my shipment was delayed. Was the closest in ingredients to Bloom Pro as the store worker and I could find and look up. Also read on the bottle that it can be used for a foliar in early blooming stages also which I had a chance to fiddle with and growth improvement was noticeable. Will be always using this in my foliar sprays at bloom from now on.

Found this on Amazon through Rocky Mountain Bio-AG and will never switch again.

I've used Grow Pro a handful of times now and it seems to play a major role in growth, especially in other autos I've grown. First time using their Bloom Pro and not disappointed either.

First time using Advanced as my primary 3 part but I like the humus and surfactant they include. I've used Nirvana and Overdrive many times already, always together and they never seem to disappoint in boosting stickiness and growth in the final week/days. When I used Overdrive with some close to pure sativas it seems like they will always put out new white pistils infinitely.

Always got to make sure she is clean and safe to smoke, Clearex has been my helping hand for flushing for years now and all I have to say is the TDS meter readings tell it all.

Probably a little too strong for the size of the plant I had, have used these before and always get positive results.

Works well at keeping a relatively close pH. Nirvana and Overdrive combined, used properly definitely help with potency.

Torpedo
Growing it
Normal
Resistance
Weak
She grew and auto-flowered just as expected, which was a relief due to a time crunch. She contracted rust fungus early on but was still strong enough to complete her entire life cycle. This phenotype's plum and ruby tones were a wonderful surprise, for Torpedo Auto is advertised as being more of a golden/yellow color. Super smooth smoke that first hits your shoulders and then the rest of your body. About half way down the joint my head feels like a balloon about to float away from my body haha (I'm baked). Very nice hybrid!

Dark Devil Auto®
Growing it
Normal
Resistance
Neutral
I have to say that these ARE quality genetics but I was VERY disappointed that 0/3 turned any sort of color almost at all. Looks were the entire reason I chose this strain, the smell and taste after curing is not very pungent, but still sweet and satisfying. After curing the smell sometimes reminds me of black liquorish or like meat, but not nasty rotten meat, like a fresh meat lol. It was quite the surprise for these girls to get as big as they did, for this was not my plan. I DID use Superthrive to try to increase my yield by delaying the length of flowering but I definitely overused it, or these genetics have a special reaction to thiamine? Very interesting and fun to grow, I did happen to be blessed with some seeds of these girls, I had some Gorilla Glue #4 feminized pollen saved in my freezer that I applied to some branches on the Dark Devils neighbors: Devil Cream Auto that must have also transferred to branches touching each other in the process. The high is enjoyable, a definite day time smoke that gives me an uplifting feeling with creativeness along with tranquility. I have very bad panic attacks and anxiety and currently rely on cannabis as my only form of medication and Dark Devil Auto seems to do the trick.

I saw the buds literally explode when I added this in my solution I fed from the top with. Growth seemed to slow/stop and new pistils formed a few days after use. I usually use this together with Nirvana but wanted to use as little nutes as possible with this girl so I stuck to small doses of overdrive. I use these two together on just about every grow.

Definitely saved her from certain death. Lol, well maybe not certain but that phosphorus deficiency was taking a toll on her. The very little bit I used helped a lot. Just not right for this application, just what was available/on hand.

I really like using this as my primary microbes except in this aquaponics set-up because of the high humus concentration it can raise the ppm quite quickly. I've used Microbe Life's Photosynthesis Plus which lists on the bottle that it's aquaponics safe and seems to help the tanks nitrification cycle more.

Amnesia Autoflowering
Growing it
Normal
Resistance
Strong
I enjoyed this strain, fairly easy to grow besides her set up as aquaponics. High in THC as promised in Canuk's description, very dense buds with a fruity/grapefruit/floral scent with a slight touch of pine. Flowered in a fairly quick fashion, (also as described). I enjoy smoking this on because it really calms my anxiety down. The first time I smoked any of it was the scissor "cheese" from trimming and it was very "heady," but once the first little nug was ready I smoked it first thing in the morning to truly experience Amnesia's effects. After a few hits I forgot about literally everything around me and put me in a bubble so to speak. I was totally in my own world but yet motivated and inspired to complete my goals/tasks. I'm a hardcore concentrate smoker, (in fact I've been out of flower for the last two weeks and have only been toking on concentrates) and a small bowl of like
