What is Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B and how does it work?
Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B is a two-part base nutrient made for coco and hydro systems. It provides complete macro and micronutrients plus fulvic/humic acids and biostimulants to support vigorous plant growth from veg through bloom. Always use both parts in equal amounts.
Why are there two bottles in Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B?
Some nutrients can react if stored together in concentrated form. Keeping them separate ensures stability. Always mix Part A into water first, stir well, then add Part B. Never mix the concentrates directly.
How much Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B should I use?
Start with 2 mL per litre of Part A and 2 mL of Part B. Increase gradually as your plants grow. Avoid jumping straight to high doses—strong early feeding can cause damage. Follow a feed chart for best results.
Can I use Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B for the full grow cycle?
Yes, it’s designed to feed your plants from early veg through late bloom. You can adjust the dosage as plants mature, and add compatible boosters later if desired.
Do I need to check and adjust pH when using Bio Diesel Green Diamond?
Yes. In coco or hydro, aim for a pH range of 5.5 to 6.2. Even with “balanced” nutrients, pH can drift due to your water source or additives. Always mix everything first, then adjust pH before feeding.
Should I feed every watering when using Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B?
In coco and hydro, frequent feeding is normal. In coco, many growers feed daily and maintain runoff to avoid salt buildup. Monitor EC and adjust frequency based on plant size and drying speed.
Is Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B suitable for seedlings or clones?
Yes, but use a gentler mix—around 2 mL/L or less of each part. Young plants are sensitive to strong feeds, so start light and only increase when growth is strong and stable.
Can I use Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B in recirculating or drip systems?
Yes—it’s clean enough for most systems. Just keep your reservoir fresh, avoid stagnant temps, and flush lines occasionally to prevent residue buildup or clogging.
Does Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B contain calcium and magnesium?
Yes, it’s formulated as a complete base nutrient. If you’re using RO or very soft water, or see signs of deficiency, you may need to supplement with Cal-Mag—otherwise, it’s often not necessary.
Can I use Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B with other additives?
Yes—it works with silica, enzymes, microbes, and boosters. Add silica first, then A and B. Avoid stacking too many new products at once, and always monitor how your plants respond.
What are signs of overfeeding or lockout with Bio Diesel Green Diamond?
Dark, clawed leaves or burnt tips often mean EC is too high. Pale leaves or slow growth may signal pH drift or salt buildup. Monitor runoff EC and pH to catch problems early and adjust accordingly.
How should I store Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B?
Keep bottles sealed, out of sunlight, and at room temperature. Shake before use. If separation or crystallisation occurs (especially in cold), warm to room temp and mix well before using.
Can I premix a batch of Bio Diesel Green Diamond and store it?
For short periods, yes—especially if it’s just A&B. Avoid storing mixes that include organics or biostimulants for too long, as they can spoil. Freshly mixed solutions are always best.
Is Bio Diesel Green Diamond A & B beginner-friendly?
Yes, as long as you stick to the basics: mix A before B, dilute properly, check pH and EC, and don’t start with heavy doses. It’s designed to be powerful yet manageable for all experience levels.
