Prom Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 (edited) On 4/15/2021 at 7:26 AM, Prom said: This is the product i will test next 150 a liter, nice price And the winner is Canna Pro Amino Boost Harvest difference was very slim, 1.5g ahead of the Bio Heaven Potency difference was also very small but both times Amino Boost won. One pair had 0.2% more potency and other pair 0.7% stronger then Bio Heaven Bio Heaven is not as good as Amino Boost... but a lot more expensive... A LOT!!! Get yourself a bottle of Canna Pro Amino Boost.... those 150 rand are very well invested!! Just replace the Bio Heaven with Amino Boost and use exactly the same way. I didnt do any Ph on the full grow with FF green bag soil. Edited July 31, 2021 by Prom last sentense 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prom Posted November 10, 2022 Author Share Posted November 10, 2022 I look for a TopMax replacement. Somebody has a suggestion? I am willed to run a test to see if it is better. TopMax price is just going up way to much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howsit, TopMax is just humic acid and fulvic acid combined - check out these two and you'll save a fortune: Humic Acid - https://www.greenhouston.co.za/products/humic-acid Fulvic Acid - https://www.greenhouston.co.za/products/fulvic-acid or these guys - https://gthydro.co.za/products/277-humic-acid-1liter.html https://gthydro.co.za/products/309-vulvic-acid-1-liter.html These are stronger than what's in TopMax, so you only use 2ml/1L of Fulvic Acid & 5ml/1L Humic acid On the note of the humic acid though, it's recommended to do it as a fortnightly drench but I've used it weekly together with fulvic acid Stop the humic acid at 3 weeks into flower, Studies have shown that humic acid reduces cannabinoid content (as it makes the plant want to grow rather than flower). Fulvic you can use right through. Ironically Bio-Heaven is Humic acid and amino acids, so I'm really glad you found a good amino acid replacement without the humic acid in it, I will definitely give that Canna Pro a try.

Very much appreciated.. will order a liter each right away and let em go head to head with TopMax when the next clone batch is ready. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORGANinc. Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 I must drop of a tub of Epic for you, it’s fulvic, humic and a tiny bit of micronised kelp. @Prom 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesignatedDave Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 @Prom - I got myself some of that Canna amino acid (Or Kushy amino boost as its called now) - it's working great. I wanted to ask you, have you found a suitable replacement for the Biobizz Acti-Vera? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking and testing for a Top-Max replacement. I didn't realize it was specifically for Coco Coir? My understanding of it is that the aloe side aids the plants immune system and it also provides enzymes that break down the dead root material and turn it back into a nutrient form for the plants to re-uptake, thus keeping your root zone healthy and also aids in nutrient uptake. According to their feeding schedule for freedom farm grow medium, it should be used: Quote I am looking and testing for a Top-Max replacement. Was the humic acid and fulvic acid I recommended not a viable replacement? Edited January 18, 2023 by DesignatedDave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prom Posted January 20, 2023 Author Share Posted January 20, 2023 Still way more expensive as the replacement products i check out... might be a reason why they go 50%. To get rid of the expensive stuff ^^ 50% is still way to expensive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
