Matter of fact I do! Just kicked up a Journal and posted some updates today.
Speaking of fat, I just gave that thirsty girl a GE today so that should make her happy.
Thanks, I'll check it out

Curious if it's too late to transplant 3 weeks into bloom, from 5 gal to 7gal .. or best to just ride it out this round
No, it's not too late. They will benefit big time. Trust me.....
If ya have a 10, that would be even better!
I forgot to do the top dress with recharge and worm castings on a girl 21 days in the flower area who just got her second Cat Drench.
Should I do the top dress now, or just skip it?
AK47 XTRM (21 days) showing a little yellow up top - not loosing any leaves yet.

Yes, you bet. 
There's no good reason not to. Remember, it's the soil you're feeding. Keep feeding it.
The EWC will help, and the minerals will percolate down into the soil for next round.

Yep. Go ahead and do it. Also, a nice DeStress spray would be good. They'll green up just fine.....don't chase after a "deficiency" this fade is due to the vagaries of container growing.
Containers...bahhh ...just make em big.....ahhh, all's good!

Trying to understand the above instructions and seem to be confused on a few points.
I would like to know ABOUT THE "Cat Drench" is this the CATONIC Root Drench ?
just want to make sure I am on the right page.
Second has to do with the GROWTH ENERGY the instructions say
Growth Energy: used nearly exclusively in veg. This is where strong stems and healthy leaves come from. It is also used during the latter half of the bloom cycle to bulk up fruit and flowers. Mix at 1/2 to 1 1/2 oz per 6 plants.
Question it says used "nearly exclusively in veg." but does not say when or how often ?
Only when stalling ? or is there a time to use like 4 weeks before flip or something like that ?
I also have a Question about the Mixing instructions
All drenches are mixed at 1/2 to 1 1/2 ounce per 6 plants(30 sq. feet of garden space for those in raised beds)
How is this calculated if using containers?
I have 3 plants so I suspect I will need to know how much water each pot will hold
and add the above amounts to the total amount of water I am going to use ? is this the correct approach ?
Is there a simpler starting point like add ¼ oz to 3 gallons of water and water until runoff begins ?
Thanks in advance, My head is spinning

1. Cat drench = Cationic root drench
2. GE - I use it more than anything else. Use it throughout veg and bloom with impunity.
3. What sized pots are your 3 plants in? If 7 gal pots, then I'd start with 3 gal of water,. 2-3 ML tea and 20 ML drench (i.e. GE or trans or cat depending on stage). I measure drenches based on gallons of soil. (1 ml: 1 gal soil)
It's really that easy.

I just wish I had of know the "kit" needs a lot more GE. Would have bought a quart up front with the two "kits" i bought to save very expensive shipping to Canada...
The kit is complete to grow w/ Doc Bud
style results.The experienced kit users have tweaked the ingredients based on experience, strains, etc.
Its suggested to follow the instructions for a couple of grows.

I'm a few days from starting kit, waiting on soil. I bought 1 kit, just ordered the bulk kit in quarts. I might veg 1 plant for 2 or 3 months, didn't want to run short of anything.

Yeah I get it but it only comes with a few oz of GE doesn't seem like enough to me.

Then you "recharge" the soil but alas out of GE because you used it all to grow six plants....
Great morning to ya OG. Yes, me too, live in Canada , that is! Always order lots (quarts and Amendment by the pound). Shipping is very pricey to us but , not as much as over seas
In the end, it's all worth it.......

Not sure I'm understanding you. The kit comes with enough for 6 plants so for a 2nd run, provided you ran 6 plants, you'll need to order more. You add "amendment" and some other stuff depending on how many times you've used the soil but you don't put GE in soil to "recharge" it after a run to prepare for a new run.
"Recharge" is included with the kit and is put into the soil early in bloom and has nothing to do with GE or amendment. There is enough Recharge in 1 kit for a single run of 6 plants. So if you have a second run you'll need to buy more recharge.
The kit gets you through a single run as Doc said. If you do additional runs and like the results from the kit it is best to buy the items in bulk or quart sizes.

I get it, just wish I had of known before I ordered.
I ordered two kits. Would have been better going bulk I think...
