My buddies are growing in hydro and have been using this stuff called Mother Of All Bloom. It is supposedly used for ripening buds, has anybody had any experience and seen a noticeable difference in using MOAB?
During the last 2 weeks before your flush, you should always use a high phosphorus, high potassium boost to ripen your buds. This adds a lot of weight to the final product and gives it that finished, dense look. In my opinion M.O.A.B. is the cheapest and most effective on the market. Peace and good luck!
I have a friend who uses it in soil. we grew out two of the same strains from the same mother plant. he started flowering a week after I did, he finished 5 days before. his plants produced more and were much taller. They produced more weight(I had too many plants for the space and an extremely dense canopy). the extra node length of my friends plants resulted in cola buds that were dense, but not completely filled in as mine were without it. Not sure if this is because of the moab or because of other variables within the grow. I will likely play with MOAB at some time for my own experience. The buds do produce and ripen quickly with it.
"During the last 2 weeks before your flush, you should always use a high phosphorus, high potassium boost to ripen your buds." I call hogwash. J
