hiya gp i have been reading some forums on 420 riu etc .....and some post say not to use light mix for as its a waste of money and doesnt really do the job right *shrugs* but surley if i use all mix for my seedlings , that will burn the hell out of them , i was planning on using light mix all the way through my grow , but after reading some forum comments im not so sure , so im calling on gp bio bizz pro's to help me out

Shane, I have no experiance with this product. Ask Tracey, she is using biobiz as well.

Sorry sweetie.

Peace

shane......i'd love to help with this one but i'm not using either of their soils.....i used the dreaded miracle grow duff which i don't reccomend but seems to be ok now!!
if i was starting again i would use light mix......i agree all mix would burn the babies(a bit like mg) so i'd go with light.
you'll have more control over nutes instead of having to wait and watch for signs that they need food.

just my tuppence.....

and i forgot to say....if you google bio bizz you can download a feeding schedule for both soil mixes....might help you make a decision?

cheers tracey , i will buy light mix and get grow and bloom nutes and take it from there .

i've just started using the grow and bloom nutes in the last week or so shane and they seem to be loving it so far!!! and i've got topmax but i need to check when to start it!!

UkCheeseShane · #8 (**permalink**) 10-14-2009, 10:07 AM

i would start that at the begining of flower ..? im going to start using my grow and bloom as soon as the water leafs fall off , when did you start using your grow and bloom tracey ? *how long into the cycle*

traceydm · #9 (**permalink**) 10-14-2009, 04:29 PM

i'm 5 weeks in shane and i just started using them last week......but remember i'm using MG so i waited til they showed signs of needing fed!!
the bio bizz schedule shows you exactly what to give and when so its worth taking a look.....thats what i'm following now and i'm just using full strength in the last few days.
the top max is started the week before flowering starts.

im going to buy grow bloom and topmax tomrrow tracey and follow the bio bizz chart , i still 1/4 the nutes with the feeding chart ? also once first potted should i give them a couple days to settle in before starting the chart , or wait till the water leaves fall off ?

traceydm · #11 (**permalink**) 10-14-2009, 05:09 PM

i think???? the general consensus is wait until the water leaves fall off......but the chart goes from seedling to harvest so i would follow that if it was me?

i've left my chart at the grow so i can't look at it right now but i think i'd give them 2 or 3 days to settle in but if your using biobizz soil i'd follow the chart....it tells you exactly how much to give and when....using their soils

with the light mix tracey will you be using algamix ? i know you dont need it with all mix , but you said you have light mix but havent mention algamix ? so im curious and confused

traceydm · #14 (**permalink**) 10-14-2009, 05:18 PM

sorry shane...i'm not using either of the bio bizz soils.
i used miracle grow organic crap.....thats why i've had such a hard tome with my plants...they were burnt to heck by the soil!!
you will do much better starting out with good soil...lucky bugger!!!

UkCheeseShane · #15 (**permalink**) 10-14-2009, 05:21 PM

lol tracey , i will get all 4 i need with light mix , bloom grow topmax and alga mix , you said top max was needed just before harvest , but on feeding chart it says start with grow bloom 2 weeks into the grow ? sorry to annoy you tracey

traceydm · #16 (**permalink**) 10-14-2009, 05:23 PM

no i thought it was one week prior to starting flower(ie 12/12)
and i don't hav the chart here,i was going off the top of myhead and we know my head ain't all that!!!LOL!!
and your not annoying.....i am!!!LOL!!!

UkCheeseShane · #17 (**permalink**) 10-14-2009, 05:27 PM

http://www.gchydro.com/pdf/biobizz.pdf Theres the chart tracy in case you needed it , i got my head round the feeding schedule , me being stoned asusual takes longer to register lol , after i pot them tomrorw i would like to get them started on the feeding scheduale ASAP but im worried there still young and i will burn them , but like you said there feeding chart is made from seedling to harvest and aslong as i 1/4 nutes and build them up i should be fine .

traceydm · #18 (**permalink**) 10-14-2009, 05:30 PM

you got it!!! plus...bio bizz is organic so apparently its quite hard to burn plants with it which is great for newbies like me!!!!
