Full strength would be 4ml per litre depending on a uk gallon (5littre's) or us gallon (4.5litre's) so maybe hit in with 2 ml per litre (10ml per 5litre's) and make up to e.c.1.2 with the rest of your normal nutrients.

As a side note if your running pk later on u may not even be adding nutrients for a week or 2 while pk is at maximum and massive is at maximum because your e.c. Should be spot on (my ph hits perfect 5.8 at this point with no ph buffers)

right guys my green planet massive boost stuff finally turned up after about 2 weeks and 2 attempts to send it first never got here so i complained and they then resent it first class with some freebie stuff i never seen before i will find a magnifying glass later to try read the ludicrously small print on the tiny bottles,anyone would think they did not want you to read it!anyway my question is how much of this gpm do you guys use how often and at what stage?with or without nutes?and does it affect your ec reading?any help happily recieved,peace

 

Use 2 or 3 ml a liter from first buds to flushing at the end, i usually go with 2ml a liter m8, but you can use up to 4ml if i remember right. :)

Green Planets Massive went in at 50ml per 30l I think off the top of my head. Was using their liquid W8 as well at 25ml.

From 2nd week of flower right through @duke

Brilliant stuff.

That`s another product of theirs the w-8 id give a try all day long, one that looks very close to the Advanced Bud Candy and again at a fraction the cost.

This would be very interesting to see.

I've always used Green Planets Massive right from the start of using coco and my yields went from 0.6gpw to 1.0gpw.

Probably more so to do with the change from soil to coco but It seems to do wonders and wouldnt go with out it just in case. Think its only £16 from my local shop. Heard good things about the stuff in it from the bees knees. Gibberish Hormones or some shizz. 



 

I've only ever used the liquid W8 a few runs. Got it given free as a tester the first time as they knew I was bang into the massive. Not so sure if it even does anything beneficial. BUT and yes thats a capital but. ...It seems to make your buds have a sticky coating, like thc on your fingers but a bit too much, more like glue if you actually know what your looking at. 

Can see it adding w8 for sure haha, not so much a good thing to be smoking tho?? I stopped using it for that reason.
