I don't discriminate, I grow with both soil and hydroponic techniques. Though this is the Hydro Review, you will also find soil and coco gardening products as well. =)

Fox Farm "Big Bloom"

From the rolling hills of Northern California, this Humboldt County original has been giving plants what they need ever since it was ALL considered "bag seed" and not too many strain specific plant species were in circulation at all. If your confused, I'm talking WAY back when. You can't go wrong when it comes from the multi-generation farmers of the North Coast. Growers of the finest indeed, it's what their economy has been based on ever since the Emerald Triangle became what it is today, Humboldt County California.

I have tried their "Grow" formula, but here I will talk about the "Big Bloom" formula. I used this for some outdoor plants in their Bloom phase along with some organic Bloom Boosters. One plant I used just the Fox Farm Big Bloom and it actually kept right up with the other plants that were receiving PK spikes! The only difference was size and density, while the test plant gave up on production the last 2 weeks (which is typical for plants to do in their last week or two), the other plants were able to pump out some last minute production with help from the Bloom Boosters I was using. Besides that, the plant given only Fox Farm did very well compared the the plants that were spiked.

This stuff is super organic and to say the least, it's pure earth. You just "feel" so organic when you use it. Very thick stuff and it's gotta be shaken before use very well. The ingredients are elements that are centuries old in horticulture. It mostly consists of Liquefied Bat Guano and Earthworm Castings. In other words, it's a bottle of liquid bat shit and liquid worm shit. Oh, and a little liquid bird shit too. Yum, the plants love it! It also contains some sea ingredients like kelp, which the roots go crazy over, making way for a fast growing plant. This stuff will help build the biological spectacular happening in your soil so much that your soil will quite literally be "alive" with beneficial biological life constantly creating and delivering to your plant essential micro and macro nutrients along with elements and enzymes from A to Z. Your soil under a microscope will be like a whole 'nother world. With shopping malls and restaurants. HERE is Fox Farm's web site. Be well...

BLOOM by Agricultural Organics

Ok, seriously, if you want to go organic, but still have complete control over what your plants are getting, then BLOOM nutrients are the way to go. Also know to be called the "Yellow Bottles", they have got SO many organic micro and macro nutrients, trace elements, sea minerals and rare earth minerals packed in these bottles and they are definitely VERY organic. My cat goes ballistic when I open either the SeaFuel or the SeaMinerals. The super concentrated thick formulas will just make you feel so organic and earthy.

With so many different bottles to get, you can really pin point and deliver just what your plants crave in strain-specific formulas. The bottles I have here are Sea Minerals, Sea Fuel, Seaweed, Roots BLOOM, Pre BLOOM, Humate, and some finisher and foliar sprays. Very thick stuff, your soil will love it. I don't know about putting this stuff in hydroponics. Some systems you can probably get away with it. But I have a phobia about organics and hydroponics. I have always kept my organic grows in soil, and saved the chems for hydro. Be well....
