I think the “II”, “XO” and “III” refer to the different solution enhancements… for example II would be the maintenance solution (BRV, OHN, FPJ) + FAA. It’s basically the vegetative solution. XO would be Crossover, so Maintenance + WCP. And then III would be Maintenance Solution + WCA.

WCP isn’t just used for flowering, it also enhances root and structure. That’s why you want to alternate II and XO Even before flowering begins.

PS, if you’re wondering, I believe type I would be considered seed soak and / or soil preparation.

Usually as a general rule you use half of any given dilution rate for soil drenching when foilar spraying as there is less of a buffering zone on the leaf surface and there it is more sensitive

Well, I’m not a master or anything but if u are using the full consortium of ingredients and they have been made right u shouldn’t be having those issues, if u are only using a couple or just one like fpj, drastic results are unlikely to be seen, FAA is your nitrogen source in KNF, if your not using that chances are your lacking nitrogen unless u have tottally completed imo 1-4 and have added a nitrogenous substrate

Sounds like you may have added too much sugar?

A plant like honohono grass has very little sugar content, and thus not much additional sugar is needed to create the osmotic pressure necessary to get the juice to come through the cell wall.

Master Cho’s book recommends using between 1/3-1/2 of the plants weight in sugar for making FPJ. So if I have 1 pound of honohono grass, I will typically add about a half pound of brown sugar to start the extraction.

Though others say the sugar cap is necessary, the literature only suggests the cap on the Fermented Fruit Juice recipe, where also the sugar is 1:1 or greater. Adding additional sugar on the top does not make any measurable difference in practice.

Thanks for the clarification. Hahaha I like that USA Inc line you threw in there. I figured copyright had something to do with the terminology. The mixing component is interesting. I can see how having several different herbal solutions in a pesticidal program along with wetting agent and red clay sulfur could get pricey having each useful combination approved by a certifying body.

Looks like a good catch Dean. I almost always measure in milliliters, so when I put teaspoon measurements in there, I forgot to convert.
