Botanicare Liquid Karma

First, I'm not sure I like the mess in the reservoirs. Up until I started using Karma and Botanicare TEA I prided myself on the clean appearance of My greenhouse, including the reservoirs. Karma, and/or Tea leave this ugly brown film everywhere. But it wasn't long when I realized the benefits of these two and probably Hydroguard products. All the veggies in the greenhouse perked up a little, and the pH became far more stable. And then a little shot of Rhizo Blast, things it all came together. I have been Hydro growing for quite a few years and these are without a doubt the very best nutrients I've ever used. Have used pretty extensively 3 other brands.

Good for Hydro, Soil, and Soilless mixtures (coir, peat). I don't think I have ever been so excited about a plant food supplement before! I have both hydroponic and potted plants -- fruits, vegetables, and ornamentals that are either brought inside for the winter, or grown in my little solarium (with 400 hps light). I had had some issues with worms in my reservoirs which had damaged my hydro plants' ability to uptake nutes, as well as the usual issues with poorly looking plants whence bringing them indoors. I gave almost everyone a dose of Karma, no matter what type of nute I was using (they all take something different!!). Almost overnight I saw an improvement in my hydro plants -- they looked perkier. Now, ten days later, I am amazed at everything. The hydro plants are zooming (despite the worms), the indoor plants look like its June outdoors, my tunies have flower buds, and my orange tree which struggled all summer and I was about to toss out for dead now has a bloom on it and signs of new growth. All this in only ten days! In a comparison between some basil and parsley I started as seeds in September, within a week's time, the pots I treated with Karma are almost twice as tall, lush, and sturdy as the untreated ones. It doesn't matter what nutrients one is using -- chemical or organic, cheap or super pricey like those 3-part hydro nutes, specific for a plant like rose, strawberry, or tomato food, or general like Miracle Grow, this really does help and does NOT seem to promote nutrient burn. Thus far, I have found Liquid Karma to be suitable for all plants and compatible with at least four different types and brands of nutrients. I'm excited to see how it works with outdoor, in-ground plants next Spring...if my plants now are any indication of how well they will do, you should be seeing my yard featured in Better Homes and Gardens next year! ***If you're like me, you rarely trust 5 star reviews. However, let me assure you I do NOT work for Botanicare, and giving this product anything less than 5 stars would be wrong.*** Oh...and for people who complain about the container dribbling when pouring....POUR FROM THE SIDE, not like pouring from a tea kettle. That's just 'Pouring 101' when it comes to rectangular jugs. =)

Liquid Karma is a Great product, really rich nutrients, keeps roots looking strong and healthy. I have been using Botanicare nutrients for multiple plants and I have to say it's easy to work with and last a good amount of time I'm hydroponics before water need to be changed. If you start with tap water, after you add the nutrients PH level may be right on point. What I've discovered is water from the local windmill water source outside the grocery store, will bring the pH down to about 4.0 so PH up is a must for that. Hope this info helps a little. Thank you

This is a great blend of growth enhancement for the beginner grower to the master grower. I have been using this product for years for indoor gardening. If you are not going to buy all Botanicare products at least buy this one. I recommend starting at a quarter of the recommended dose after your plant shows first true leaves then after your plant shows it wants more increment by quarter dose until reaching 10 ml a gallon of water.

Lid leaks but good product

If you're looking for an inexpensive seedling and foliar spray this is cheaper than rhyzotonic from Canna but not as good in my opinion but the cost difference reflects that.

This product is great. However, they need a better way to seal the lid and shipping. I have issues with leaking containers and also they send the wrong size. I ordered 2.5 gals and recieved 1 gallon that leaked and I can't return a leaky package.

Did great with my plants
