What is the Bio Diesel Starter Kit and what’s included?
The Bio Diesel Starter Kit is a complete seed‑to‑harvest nutrient system built around Green Diamond A&B base nutrients plus key additives for roots, calcium/magnesium support, potassium demand, bloom performance, and nutrient cleanup. It’s designed to cover an entire grow cycle without needing extra bottles for a standard run.
Is the Bio Diesel Starter Kit beginner‑friendly?
Yes. The kit includes a Grower’s Guide and feed chart, making it easy to follow without guessing. Beginners get the best results by running Green Diamond A&B as the base and adding other products only when the schedule calls for them.
What grow media and systems can I use the Bio Diesel Starter Kit with?
The kit works in soil, coco, and hydro systems, including drain‑to‑waste, DWC/RDWC, autopots, indoor tents, and outdoor gardens. In living soil, most growers use lighter doses as supplemental support rather than full‑strength feeding.
What does Green Diamond A&B do, and why is it split into two parts?
Green Diamond A&B is the core base nutrient that supplies macro and micronutrients through veg and bloom. It’s split into Part A and Part B to keep reactive ingredients stable. Both parts are used together at the same time, always mixed into water separately.
What are the main additives in the Bio Diesel Starter Kit for?
Supernatural supports roots and early vigor, Marine CaMg+ supplies calcium and magnesium, Rhino K supports potassium demand in heavy growth and bloom, Bio Diesel Bloom Booster drives flower performance, and Aloevate supports plant resilience and stress tolerance.
What is Crystal Clear and when should I use it?
Crystal Clear is a nutrient cleanup and salt‑management tool, commonly used in coco and peat. Growers use it mid‑cycle for maintenance, when correcting lockout, or late‑cycle to help clean excess fertiliser before finishing. It complements good runoff habits rather than replacing them.
What is the correct mixing order for the Bio Diesel Starter Kit?
Add nutrients to water in this order: Green Diamond Part A, then Part B, then the other additives as directed. Mix thoroughly between each step, check EC, and adjust pH last. Never premix concentrates together.
What pH and EC should I aim for with the Bio Diesel Starter Kit?
pH targets depend on your medium, but consistency matters more than chasing numbers. Use the correct range for soil, coco, or hydro and keep it stable. An EC/PPM meter is strongly recommended to avoid overfeeding when stacking additives.
Do I need Marine CaMg+ with tap water or RO water?
With RO water, Marine CaMg+ is commonly needed because RO lacks minerals. With hard tap water, you may need less or none. Avoid stacking multiple Cal‑Mag products, as excess calcium or magnesium can cause imbalance.
Can the Bio Diesel Starter Kit cause nutrient burn?
Yes. Burn usually comes from feeding too strong too early, stacking too many additives, or ignoring runoff EC in coco. If issues appear, reduce strength, simplify back to Green Diamond A&B, and stabilise conditions before adding extras again.
Is the Bio Diesel Starter Kit organic or PGR‑free?
The kit uses a bio‑mineral approach combining mineral base nutrients with biological and organic‑style additives. Bio Diesel is marketed toward growers avoiding harsh PGRs. Always follow label directions and avoid mixing in unknown third‑party boosters.
Can I use the Bio Diesel Starter Kit for edible crops?
Yes. It’s used for herbs, vegetables, and fruiting crops. Feed conservatively, avoid overusing bloom boosters on leafy crops, and run a sensible taper or cleanup before harvest.
How should I store the Bio Diesel Starter Kit, and how long does it last?
Store bottles sealed, cool, and out of direct light. Do not freeze or overheat them. When stored properly, the products last a long time once opened. Earthy smells are normal; rotten smells are not.
