General BlueGold® Questions
1Where are BlueGold® Solutions made?
100% American Made
2I had some Amazon PRIME shipping issues. What do I do?
First, we are sorry about your experience with the packaging mishap. Amazon Fulfills our PRIME orders, and sometimes the bottle is not kept from rolling around the box like a bowling ball due to lack of packing material in the box that is supposed to be there. We strive to make sure every package that leaves here is properly packaged. Please contact Amazon for a replacement due to shipping damage. If Amazon falls short, please contact us and we will take of it.
3What are the Guaranteed Results, when the disclaimer says there is no guarantee?
Concerning all of our sales, we guarantee results! Then there are are conditions that supersedes what is in the legal disclaimer on the label. So, if you did not see a result of any kind, we will be more than happy to reimburse the sale. The label disclaimer is a blanket statement to protect us from customers who misuse the product. Please give us a call anytime (877-732-5360) and we will be more than happy to discuss any question or concern you may have.
4Do you ship BlueGold® Solutions internationally?
We can ship internationally using FedEx. The customer is responsible for the shipping cost. We are not liable if customs rejects or confiscates the product. Please contact Nick if you have questions about ordering BlueGold® Solutions outside the USA.
5Are BlueGold® Solutions Certified Organic?
Yes, majority of our Solutions are OMRI listed for use in Certified Organic Programs and some are still under review. All are NOP Compliant except our Enzymes and IO-Pure. Please contact your certifier prior to use. Certifiers requesting certificates can contact Nick.
6Are BlueGold® Solutions safe for skin contact?
Yes, they are safe! BlueGold® Solutions are not harmful to skin, however, if contact occurs be sure to wash afterward to avoid dry skin. The saponins inside the Solutions will strip the oils off your skin and leave it too dry (itching) with prolonged contact to the skin from concentrate.
7Will BlueGold® Solutions stain?
BlueGold® Solutions will not stain, damage, or otherwise discolor surfaces such as wood, metal, clay, plastic or fabrics when being used at recommended rates.
8How do I store BlueGold® Solutions after I open them?
For storing after use, it is good to leave the cap slightly loose to allow venting and additional fermenting to make the BlueGold® Solutions more powerful. Always store them in a cool dark place.
9Are any of your products created with any animal by-products?
BlueGold® Solutions are plant, mineral and, ocean-based solutions with NO animal by-products except our 2 Fusion Compost NPKs. They do have bird and bat guano.
10Are poisons like arsenic, cobalt, lead, and mercury in BlueGold® Solutions?
These elements are found everywhere in nature! No matter where you go! This lab sheet of BlueGold® shows you that these elements are “n.d.” in BlueGold®. "n.d." stands for Non-Detectable according to the lab sheet legend. It takes A LOT of work to purify a product of heavy metals without inducing even more toxins in the process! We happily show you that our products DO NOT contain these toxic heavy metals. Additionally, you can see the ‘Reporting Limit’ column, which shows you the maximum limit. Good information to know for future products you buy! We hope this was helpful.
11Which water is best to use with BlueGold® Solutions?
When you use BlueGold® Solutions, water matters. If you have an alternative to city water, preferably rainwater, this will always significantly improve your results with any of our Solutions. If not, you can let the city water sit in an open container for 48-72 hrs. before use to gas off some of the chemicals harmful to the soil. Common chemicals found in city water like Hydroflurosallicic Acid, Ammonia, Lead, Arsenic, Chlorine, Chloramine, Fluoride, Perchlorate(s), PCB’s, MtBE, Bromine to name a few are not beneficial to any grow operation. We challenge you to research these for yourself to honestly see how your water source choice truly matters.
12Is BlueGold® a living product?
We use a Proprietary 'low heat' Process that does not degrade all-natural inherent biology and/or enzymes.
We eagerly work with any BlueGold® customer to adjust their protocols and provide soil analysis to ensure continued balanced nutrient inputs. If you would like to discuss your specific soil and plant problems before purchasing BlueGold® Solutions, we would love for you to please contact us. Many of the current issues our customer support deal with is from improper use of the BlueGold® Solutions. If you are confused by the directions on the bottle or have a question about pairing BlueGold® Solutions with any of your other inputs, please contact us before use. We will also happily walk you through any of the information below, so you can join the multitude of happy BlueGold® growers. We are here to help you in any way we can. We offer a satisfaction guarantee for this reason.
General Plant Questions
1Why are some of the bottles only 8oz?
The little 8oz bottle of BlueGold® (Garden Blend, Rose Blend, Hydro, Vibrant Floral) is a super-concentrate that will make up to 47 gallons of finished product. The 8oz concentrate of Super Carb will make up to 95 reservoir batches and up to 15 gallons of foliar applications. Please judge the BlueGold® Solutions on their performance after you have used the product and not on the size of the bottles. Big things can come in small packages. We promise you will not be disappointed after the use of the entire bottle. We have larger sizes of all our Solutions and/or if you're still not happy, please contact us.
2How do you use BlueGold® with synthetic chemicals?
By themselves, BlueGold® Solutions will never cause burning. Do NOT combine with pesticides/chemicals/plant cleaners/etc and or chemically enhanced fertilizer or fertilizer high in Na Salts and Chlorides like Coco Coir. BlueGold® Garden Blend magnifies anything it touches and greatly enhances nutrient uptake. All BlueGold® Solutions have the ability to magnify anything they are mixed with or come into contact within the soil, water, or on plant leaf surfaces. Very recent (months prior) or current use of chemicals like fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, algaecides, bactericides, miticides, pesticides, biocides, fumigants, plant growth regulators, pH Up/Down chemicals, dyes, etc., – all can cause an unfavorable interaction due to the BlueGold® Solution magnifying the strength of said chemical. Strengthened doses of those chemicals can result in direct stress, burning, or death of plants. BlueGold® Solutions by themselves, without chemical interactions, will never cause these issues in any plant or soil (when used as directed). Users must respect BlueGold® labels and reduce NPK/synthetic inputs by +/- 90%. If by user choice, against our directions/recommendations, to use chemical inputs by combining with BlueGold®, they must be reduced by 90% or more. If you quickly move the pH to 6.4 with the help of pH adjusters, without adjusting inputs, you’re drastically making inputs more available, which results in stressed, burned, or dead plants from too big of a hit from the nutrients that are now available at a much higher % than previously. Especially when all the excess stored up chemicals inputs, flood into the plants at even higher EC/PPM values. Likewise, if you do not adjust inputs while using BlueGold®, as soil/sap pH is driven to 6.4, the same can happen over an extended period depending on soil and watering conditions. We do not advocate mixing BlueGold® with any chemicals. This all only applies to chemical-based products and does not apply to organic-based products except for humic and fulvic acids as they are already in the BlueGold®. If you feel you need more, then start at a reduced rate of 90% and test on a few plants first. If you have sprayed or applied granular chemicals to your plants/soil previously/currently we suggest the following steps: 1) Hose the plants/soil down with clean water at least 3 separate times and 2) use the foliar rate below of BlueGold® Wetting Agent at 90% less of the recommended BlueGold® foliar base rate application for the first 3-4 applications. For example, rather than use 1 tbsp (15 mL) per 1 gallon of foliar spray to start your foliar sprays (as directed on label); instead, begin with a ½ teaspoon (2.5 mL) per 1 gallon of foliar spray. Also, for the root soak reduce to a ¼ tsp per 5-gallon bucket of water to root drench (water) the plants for 3 to 4 watering’s before using the regular rates of 1 to 2 mL per gallon of water. Best used with non-city or chemically treated water sources. Best if RO, distilled, or rain/spring water is used. BlueGold® works and works very well in all organic situations with no side effects. If you encounter problems in the plants from the chemicals by your choice, then STOP.
3What differentiates the BlueGold® Garden Blend, Vibrant Floral, Rose Blend, and Hydro?
Water is the carrier of all nutrients. Our Wetting Agents are formualted from 100+ Certified Organic Plant Oils and Extracts, Minerals, and Herbs. The Plant Oils in our Wetting Agents give them the 'surfactant' like quality. Surfactants (soap) make water wetting, breaking surface tension allowing it to spread deeper and wider. When mixed with water, BlueGold®'s nutrient-dense concentrate Wetting Agents hitch a ride on the water molecule and carry all that jampacked nutrition right into the plant.
While, our Wetting Agents are jam-packed of nutrirtion, they do 'mine the soil'. This means, they induce the plant to pull up nutrients through the root system the plant needs to grow. After every harvest or end of growing season it is imperative to put back into the soil what the plant takes out. Choose the Wetting Agent you need depending on what you're growing:
Hydro: Our Base Wetting Agent formula. Hydro is safe for ANYTHING that grows. We recommend Hydro as a 'one size fits all' and specifically for frost/freeze protection sprayed 24 hrs. prior to the frost/freeze.
Garden Blend: Our Base Wetting Agent enhanced further with isolated nutrients for greater production, such as more alkaline ingredient ratios.
Rose Blend: Our Base Wetting Agent enhanced further with isolated nutrients we have found that roses like, such as Triacontanol, Resveratrol, etc. This Wetting Agent is safe only for roses and flowering medicinal strains and plants.
Vibrant Floral: Our Base Wetting Agent enhanced further with isolated nutrients to make flowering plants bloom, such as more acidic ingredient ratios.

4What are the BlueGold® Solution rates to use when I have pest and/or disease in my plants?
If you currently have pest and/or disease, it is a lack of properly balanced nutrition, chemical, Na Salt(s), chloride, onslaught, or an out of balance pH. We recommend to foliar spray daily for 3 days with 3x the application rate on the label. After this regiment, your pest and/or disease problem should have diminished. Please call us at 877-732-5360 if issues persist.
5If mixing BlueGold® Solutions, can I save the remaining water mix for next week?
Absolutely! You can save the mixed BlueGold® Solutions for up to 30 days if you keep it in a cool and dark place. It may or could take on a slight smell to it due to active biology.
6Is there a preferred time of day BlueGold® Solutions should be applied?
BlueGold® Solutions can be sprayed at any time of the day or night. The absolute best time we have found is in the early morning when the dew is present. But, BlueGold® Solutions are safe to apply in all weather conditions, hot or cold, day or night, and it’s OK to spray before, during, or after the rain. The best results are achieved when foliar applications are immediately or a few hours after a root soak (and/or non-BlueGold® fertilizer input using reduced rates, 90% less). Regardless of the time, BlueGold® Solutions will not cause root rot, induce mold, or wilt plants if used during “traditional do-not-spray hours.”
7What is a root soak? How often do I do this?
A root soak is when you make a nutrient batch in a bucket/watering can and soak the “roots” by pouring at the base of the plants. Also known as a 'soil watering' or a 'fertifation'. Then 15 minutes later, follow with a foliar spray. The foliar spray feeds the plants directly and tells the plants to “uptake” the nutrients you put into the soil with the root soak. This is why we recommend to always root soak before you foliar to maximize nutrient uptake. Root soak applications should be 2 times max per week, to avoid saturated soils. Always test soil moisture with a finger before watering. If the soil sticks to your finger there is no need to water. If using Soil Moisture Meter water at 27%. BlueGold® Solutions make water penetrate deeper/broader reducing watering requirement needs. Hot/Dry/Cold/Wet zones may require +/- waterings.
8Does it matter what the pH of the water for the foliar spray?
Successful growing is always led first and foremost by using the correct pH on the roots and foliar’s, as you well know. We have learned that pH is merely the measurement of resistance. The higher the pH, the greater the resistance and the lower the pH, less resistance. We have found that a 6.4 pH will allow more nutrients to pass to the plant because of the lower resistance at 6.4. We have seen time and again that operations which only change to a constant 6.4 pH in Veg and 6.3 pH in Flower, see incredible changes.
9How do I do a foliar spray?
You can foliar spray 2x per week minimum. Pump up backpack sprayers are best. Hose end sprayers tend to not have enough agitation - set them on the 3oz setting. Make sure to spray the plant to a drip. This is KEY. To a drip includes on the underside of the leaves where pests like to hide. Spray until it drips. It is safe to foliar spray every day and even multiple times per day to maximize plant health and production. Merely proportion your daily rate as necessary with your number of preferred applications. When you combine the root drench (soil watering/fertigation) with the foliar spray when you will see the highest results.
10Are BlueGold® Solutions safe for bees?
Yes! All, BlueGold® Solutions are safe for all pollinators and beneficials like bees, butterflies, beneficials, earthworms, birds, etc. They attract them! They will not harm animals, plants, children, etc. In all our years of study and research with the BlueGold® Solutions we have yet to see any pollinator or beneficial that does not just love the BlueGold®. Most people will comment that the increased amount of bees, butterflies, ladybugs, praying mantis, etc. start showing up after they start applying the BlueGold® Solutions!
11Will BlueGold® Solutions burn up my plants?
By themselves, BlueGold® Solutions will not burn leaf tip, bud, or blooms. BlueGold® Solutions have been tested from 15F to 125F with no detriment to plants, soil, or blooms. BlueGold® Solutions amplify and enhance other inputs, fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, biocides, etc. so ERR WITH CAUTION when combining BlueGold® Solutions and dial those chemical and synthetic inputs back by at least 90%. We do not advocate growing with chemicals or synthetics with BlueGold® at all. Please, call us (877-732-5360) anytime with any questions you have regarding growing with BlueGold®.
12What is the fizz when I open the BlueGold® Solutions?
The BlueGold® Solutions area biologically alive. Because we preserve the inherent plant microbiology during our manufacturing process, pressure can slightly build in the BlueGold® bottles, which then vent through a special vented cap seal we use. But, if the carrier is extremely rough with your BlueGold® bottle(s), sometimes there can be a slight leakage, or it will want to burp and/or fizz out the top when you first open it. To avoid leaks, never shake your BlueGold® bottle. Only roll side to side to mix, if needed. Most people pour it in an empty bucket first and then add the water, which will cause it to foam up. We recommend to always add the BlueGold® Solution to water, never water to the BlueGold® Solution to avoid foaming.
13The BlueGold® bottle I received appeared to have fermentation and had started leaking from the excess pressure?
We are sorry for your burping bottle. The BlueGold® Solutions are living biological Solutions that at times can 'burp'. We install custom vented cap lids but sounds like it was too much for the vented cap? However, we have had problems with Amazon’s PRIME fulfillment shipping where a BlueGold® bottle arrives in a box with no packing material (like it should have) so it is rolling around like a loose bowling ball, and this is like shaking a Soda up. We have accounted for this information in the insert with the bottle, and it explains on what for you to do if this occurs. So rough handling and shipping can sure upset the BlueGold®, and unfortunately, we still have to work on this with Amazon. BUT, nothing is wrong with the product. Please judge the product on its performance and not on its shipping faults we have at times. The product is still safe and effective to use in the meantime.
14What is the shelf life of BlueGold® Solutions once opened?
The government and labeling laws limit how long body/animal/plant beneficials are allowed to have a “shelf life” of, and we are required to put a 1-year shelf life on the label. Unofficially, we have the product used on company soil and systems that have been sitting for close to 10 years. We have found that BlueGold® Solutions are like wine, the longer they age, the better they perform.
15My BlueGold® Solution has a strong smell. Is this normal?
BlueGold® Solutions are made from plants and minerals. They are biologically alive solutions that contain naturally occurring bacteria and enzymes. A biologically alive solution will have an odor, but most of our customers tell it to us that it smells earthy and very plant-like. It should have a potent/strong earthy plant-like smell. At times, if the biology is feeding at higher rates due to heat, oxygen, etc. the smell becomes more and more potent.
16Can I use BlueGold® through harvest?
Yes, you can use all BlueGold® Solutions, with the exception of Fusion Compost NPKs and Flower Power, up till the day of harvest. The Fusion Compost NPKs and Flower Power may have harvest restrictions (30-90 days prior), based on your state. Contact your certifier prior to use.
17What indicates sustainable soil?
Sustainable soil will absorb well and it will warm up quickly in the Spring. It will not crust after tillage or planting. Your soil will soak up heavy rains and have no standing water, with little to no runoff. It will store moisture for drought periods by absorbing up to 3" of rain in 20 minutes and have an abundance of bacteria and other microbial life. It will be a suitable environment to support very high populations of soil organisms. Your soil will resist erosion and nutrient loss from runoff and will not require the increase of inputs for plant life. It is fluffy and you should be able to stick your hand into it and grab a handful. It has a rich earthy smell and produces healthy plants with high BRIX that are disease and pest resistant. It is vital you amend the soil after each growing season and prior to planting with balance dry mineral inputs and organic composts / worm casting concentrate to put back every year what the plants take out. This helps to maintain plant health and production.
18Do your Solutions have Humic and Fulvic Acid in them?
Yes, Humic and Fulvic acids are in the BlueGold® Solutions.
19What is BRIX?
BRIX is the plant’s natural sugar production measurement. High BRIX equates to a healthy vital plant. Pests do not process sugar. They avoid high BRIX crops because they cannot survive feeding on them. They will pass over the healthy plant and target the sick deficient plant that has the low BRIX levels. Increasing your BRIX, effectively decreases your pest problems. It is really that simple. This is the Creator's way of protecting you from eating sick deficient plants and also helping to identify them. Increase the health of your plants with BlueGold®.
One of the best tools to have in your shed is a BRIX Meter. It is essentially your only true method to verify the vitality of your plants outside Apical's Soil and Sap Testing. It proves if the products you are using are actually working. If your BRIX levels go up, it works. If they stay the same or decrease, get rid of the product.

General Animal Questions
1Why is gut health essential for nutrient uptake?
Gut health is essential for nutrient uptake, the efficiency of which is directly related to disease prevention, immune function, and quality of life. Healthy animals will eat properly and drink more to live a happier life, naturally assuring they are performing at their maximum potential! BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® focuses on supporting animal performance by promoting good bacteria, deterring bad bacteria, remediating viral conditions, toxins, pathogens, parasites, and diseases, building and boosting natural immune defenses, and maximizing overall growth and health efficiency. Gut stability is critical for raising pet’s that have an amazing quality of life! Required from birth onward, attentive care and support of your pet’s gut is needed to maintain healthy microflora in their intestinal tract. An optimum digestive function is achieved when nutrients supplied do not counteract with stomach resistance (pH) and microbe levels. Digestive energy is the driver of digestive activity, and cannot occur in biofilm, resistance (pH) imbalances, and immune functions are below optimum levels. PME® promotes healthy microbial levels, particularly "fiber digesters," which are responsible for utilizing non-protein nitrogen. Digestive health cannot be supported and cared for too much. It is an essential factor for optimum pet health. Research has shown that many digestive disorders occur when partly digested nutrients are passed through the gut to the lower intestinal tract. This is an indication of a failure to digest and uptake the feed, resulting in deficient nutrient levels, lowered immune functions, and decreased production. A build-up of this feed in the lower gut is a breeding ground for disease and harmful organisms. By correcting digestibility through PME® and its inherent properties, which deter the growth of diseases and harmful organisms, the gut microflora can improve and achieve a right balance. Many of our users report this fantastic enhancement!
BlueGold® Garden Blend Questions
1How would I use BlueGold® Garden Blend and Super Carb in my Aerogarden?
Use 5-10 mL Garden Blend with 2.5 mL of the Super Carb per gallon to foliar spray. It is safe to foliar every day if you want. In the zone (roots) this is like DWC (deep water culture) you will need less BlueGold® like 0.5-1 mL per 8-15 gallons depending on what you are growing. Please give James a call for further advice: 1-877-732-5360 x 103.
2I am looking at the BlueGold® Garden Blend and the Fusion Compost VEG. Can they be used together?
Yes! You would use the Fusion Compost VEG at recommend rates in the bottom of the plant (soil watering) and use the Garden Blend at recommended rates as a foliar spray for the top of the plant. Spray the plant to a drip! Use the Fusion Compost max 2x per week and you can foliar with the Garden Blend daily but minimum 3x per week. You can add Super Carb to your foliar as well.
3In the coconut fiber, do I need BlueGold® Garden Blend and also a fertilizer?
In Coco, you have to be very careful because the salts are screaming high and will lock out your Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium first if you grow below the 6.4 zone pH. If you use the BlueGold® Garden Blend, you will have to reduce rates by at lest 90% because BlueGold® amplifies everything it touches. We do not recommend growing with BlueGold® in Coco Coir. Coco Coir is a very imbalanced grow media when it comes to the salt and chloride PPMs.
4Should BlueGold® Garden Blend be used alone, or is it better to use along with an NPK Fertilizer?
Many growers have used Blue Gold™ Garden Blend by itself. For example, tomatoes love Blue Gold™ Garden and will generally yield an enormous harvest without the use of any fertilizers. But, not all soils are the same. Because Blue Gold™ Garden enhances the nutrient uptake, we recommend sticking with your current fertilizer at reduced rates about 75-95%. We also have a Vegetative and Flower NPK Fertilizer. With continued use, you can dial in just how little fertilizer you need to use. We recommend starting with at least 15% of your current fertilizer input ratios. The protocol of many successful Eden growers is to switch to Blue Gold™ Solutions completely, increase application rates if stress or pest arise, and only consider fertilizer inputs when increased Blue Gold™ Solutions rates are insufficient to maintain a high BRIXX and big harvest/bloom.
5Can BlueGold® Garden Blend be used as a foliar feed or just by watering the soil?
It can be used as both. We recommend foliar only if you're putting Fusion Compost VEG in the bottom (soil).
BlueGold® Rose Blend Questions
1Should I use BlueGold® Rose Blend instead of or in addition to a rose fertilizer?
Use Rose Blend as a 'rose food' nutrient input and pair with our Fusion Compost NPKs for roses.
2How often should I feed my roses with BlueGold® Rose Blend?
You can foliar daily with BlueGold® Rose Blend but at minimum 3x per week.
3Besides roses, can BlueGold® Rose Blend be used on other plants?
Because of the enhancements we recommend its use only on roses or flowering medicinal plants/strains.
4I am mixing BlueGold® Rose Blend into a gallon jug, but I am wondering how much should I use for each rose bush?
In commercial applications, farmers apply BlueGold® Solution treated water at a minimum of 21 gallons per acre. Hope that helps paint a picture. For foliar, we recommend spraying the rose bush to a drip, making sure to coat the underside of foliage. For a root soak, you are watering your usual amount. The only difference is now the water is treated per gallon with Rose Blend. Think of it as you are currently using treated water. Foliar applications vary depending on the user and dictate how many gallons you usually use per rose bush.
BlueGold® Hydro Questions
1How would I use BlueGold® Hydro and Super Carb in my AeroGarden Extra (LED)?
Aerogardens use very small amounts of the BlueGold® Solutions, and you will use an mL syringe to measure if you have one. To keep it simple you can take a 1-gallon container and mix your foliar spray and keep it under the counter to fill a simple spray bottle. Or you can use very small measuring spoons to do the math. As always you only want very small amounts in the water and foliar the top with recommended rates per 1-gallon of clean water. For best results always use BlueGold® solutions on the bottom (soil/hydro) roots and foliar at the top. Do BlueGold® Hydro and Super Carb at 0.5-1 mL per 8-15 gallons in the res. Foliar spray every day. If you are using city water, please let it sit 24-48 hrs in an open container to gas off the chemicals. You do not need anymore LED lights. Just place the aerogarden in/on a window sill or as close to natural light as you can even if it is across the room. The plants will absorb these natural light spectrum rays and help supplement the LED rays. Always use the most natural light as you can if you can for best results.
2Why does BlueGold® Hydro make foam in my aquaponics?
BlueGold® technology has surfactant-like properties. The herbs, minerals, plant oils and extracts are micronized to the nano level, and this process results in a bio-surfactant substance. In all res cases, BlueGold® Hydro is designed to be used in conjunction with BlueGold® Super Carb to combat foaming. In a clean tank add 2 mL of Super Carb, then add 1 mL of Hydro. If you are using adjusted rates based on your protocol, then apply a base principle of twice the amount of Super Carb as the amount of Hydro. Foaming issues occur due to agitation or aeration. When using Hydro, you do not need to aerate or agitate as often as you usually would. Generally, you can cut your aeration/agitation protocols by 50% to 90% depending on your reservoir size and level of nutrient input.
3I just added BlueGold® Hydro to my reservoir, and it’s foaming. Do I have to disconnect my bubble stone and pump?
Depending on your water pH and softness the BlueGold® Hydro at 1mL per gallon should not foam or bubble. However, if you add some Super Carb at 2 mL per gallon (or you can try another carb source that will not gunk the reservoir) to the reservoir that should stop any foaming or bubbling action. Again, depending on your water softness you may see some slight bubbling with the Hydro. If it is persistent just as you said, stop the aerator for a few hours and add a Carb and start it back up. Carbohydrates will stop any foaming action usually across the board. This is why we suggest the BlueGold® Super Carb for the de-foaming action and all the nutrients it brings to the plants.
4I’m using BlueGold® Hydro with BlueGold® Super Carb together on my DWC set up. But it’s turning the water brown and killing the roots. Why?
No BlueGold® Solution by itself will kill the roots, plants, or flowers, etc. It has just the opposite effect with snow white, vibrant, soft and pliable roots; always has. So the only major problem is one of two things. The res was not flushed prior to use and there are chemicals in the reservoir or the rates that you are using are too high. BlueGold® Solutions will amp up anything they touch that is why we say you MUST cut your nutrients by 90% minimum to start off if you are going to use the BlueGold® Hydro with synthetics. We would suggest that you flush your system immediately for 1 day on just water and then refill with clean non-chlorinated water and then add 0.5-2 mL of Hydro per 20 gallons of water along with 2-4 mL of the Super Carb per 20 gallons of reservoir. You also may add 1 tablespoon of Epsom Salt per 20 gallons also. This will kick-start the plant roots back on the right track. Then they will want to start eating again, so then you can feed up. Use 5-10 mL of Hydro on a foliar feed 3-4x per week also with the same mL of the Super Carb. This will get the plants back. Please pick up and call us (877-732-5360 x 103) anytime and we can help when a situation arises. DWC makes plants run differently and is harder on them than soil. If you are using chlorinated city water, please let it sit for a few days to evaporate the chemicals otherwise the chemicals are very hard on the plants.
5I have a 20-gallon hydroponic tower garden system. How much of BlueGold® Hydro should I use?
If you are using an NPK fertilizer with this, please reduce the NPK amount by up to 90% and add 1 mL Hydro per gallon. For you, 20mL = 4 teaspoons. Then we recommend adding 2 mL of our Super Carb per gallon which is 40 mL for your 20 gallons. Your nutrient PPM should be around 200 to 400 PPM. Depending on what you are growing you could up the Hydro to 0.5-1 mL Hydro per 1-gallon of your reservoir along with the Super Carb. With this mix, foliar feed the plants with the Hydro at 1 tablespoon (15 mL) per 1 gallon daily for at least 4x per week. You can add the Super Carb into the foliar mix at 5 mL per 1-gallon and you will very surprised at the response with it and your plant’s increased BRIX levels. If you are using city water, please let it sit for 1-2 days so some/most of the chemicals can leach out. The chemicals are hard on the plants and hinder their production. Try to use rainwater for the foliar, especially if you are on city water.
6Does BlueGold® Hydro help with root rot?
Yes. It is most effective at treating root rot when nutrients used with it are properly adjusted and a Carbohydrate, like our BlueGold® Super Carb, is also used. If your roots are caramel/brown that is a clear sign of too much chemical use. Roots should be snowy white, limber, thick, and fluffy.
7Will BlueGold® Hydro help with seed germination?
Yes, it will! It is safe to foliar feed newly germinated seeds and sprouts every day at a rate of 1 tsp per 1 gallon of water. To increase seed germination rates, it is beneficial to soak your seeds in the Hydro at a rate of 1 tsp per 1 gallon of water mixture for 15-45 minutes just before planting. You can increase your success with transplanting plants with an immediate foliar and root application. It is beneficial to spray your garden soil during the winter months in preparation for spring planting. BlueGold® Solutions can be sprayed on top of snow up to ten times over the winter for soil preparation.
8Is BlueGold® Hydro good for vegetative and bloom or just bloom?
BlueGold® Hydro can and is used all the way from clone to harvest. Use it at 0.5-2 mL per gallon of veg/flower reservoir on the roots of the plants. And use 10-15 mL on the top side foliar (veg/flower) of the plants. Same applies to the soil-grown plants with the BlueGold® Hydro. You must reduce your usual NPK synthetic nutrients by 90% because the BlueGold® Hydro makes them so available and amps them up. Flush your res prior to using BlueGold® Solutions if you grow with chemicals.
BlueGold® Vibrant Floral Questions
1Can BlueGold® Vibrant Floral be used in the desert at an average of 90+ degrees?
Yes! We have many customers who are using BlueGold® Solutions in Florida, Arizona, New Mexico, California, and many other hot climates. They are growing blooms and florals year round in these zones.
2Can BlueGold® Vibrant Floral be used for my indoor succulents?
Absolutely! Succulents love BlueGold® Vibrant Floral. Succulents are generally very slow growers, but not on BlueGold® Solutions!
BlueGold® Super Carb Questions
1Is BlueGold® Super Carb a blackstrap molasses?
BlueGold® Super Carb is made with blackstrap molasses and infused with other Carbohydrates like Tapioca, Coconut, Maple, Sugar Cane Juice, and Alfalfa. This molasses/carb product is saponin enhanced, rather than using a questionably safe detergent to reduce solidification during cold temperatures, which helps with soil/media penetration. The saponins are derived from: Aloe, Angelica, Bhringaraj Leaf, Black Cumin Seed, Brahma/Gotu Kola Leaf, Butchers Broom, Calendula, Chamomile, Cardamon, Comfrey, Dandelion Root, Eucalyptus, Fennel, Ginger, Ginseng Root, Hibiscus, Maca Root, Moringa Leaf, and Yucca Root. Some clay and mineral deposits are used for the stabilization and composition changes of this product but are not claimed as part of the ingredients.
2Can I use BlueGold® Super Carb in soil?
Yes. When you add carbohydrates to your soil, it brews and is hugely beneficial and essential for soil microbial growth!
3Is BlueGold® Super Carb recommended for foliar spray?
Yes, the BlueGold® Super Carb is recommended for foliar spray to enhance the taste of produce/strains, increase terpene production, and vibrancy of blooms and petals.
4Do I need to flush my system when using BlueGold® Super Carb?
BlueGold® Super Carb can be used through all vegetative and flower growth stages as well, so there is no need to flush your system.
BlueGold® Fusion Compost NPK VEG & FLOWER Paste Questions
1Would BlueGold® Fusion Compost Vegetative NPK help the depleted soil in my garden?
The Fusion Compost is a revolutionary product in the sense that it is made from and stores 100% the solids that it is derived from like seabird guano, worm castings, bat guano, rock powder minerals, and other solids with BlueGold® Super Carb and Hydro. These solids are formed into a water-soluble high-density paste. So this paste slow-release feeds the soil which will feed the soil biology which in turn feeds that plants. So, yes the Fusion Compost will also help restore the depleted soils through its composition of soluble solids.
2Is BlueGold® Fusion Compost Vegetative NPK a good choice for my houseplants?
The Fusion Compost would be excellent for your houseplants. It is the highest natural NPK product that we make, and plants respond very well to it. The Fusion Compost is very powerful make sure to follow the recommended rates on the label and keep it only on the bottom of the plant (soil watering). If you're looking to foliar spray your plants the Hydro would be good. We also have a Fusion Compost Flower NPK version for your flowering and fruiting plants.
3How will BlueGold® Fusion Compost Vegetative NPK work with a propagation cuttings and rooting hormones?
It works very well in cloning cuttings of all types. Use BlueGold® Fusion Compost Vegetative NPK in conjunction with your regular clone regiment. Use your clone gel as always and use the Fusion Compost here. Add the Fusion Compost at 200-250 (max) PPM (above the water) for the clone watering in trays or air-o-cloner on the bottom of the clones. Once the clones spark roots (a whole bunch) start foliar feeding the clone tops with 5 mL of BlueGold® Hydro per gallon of foliar spray water.
4Can you use BlueGold® Fusion Compost VEG with other organic fertilizers?
You can use any BlueGold® Solution with ‘any’ all natural / organic nutrient with no side effects. All our Solutions are safe to use on all plants and with other fertilizers BUT they do maximize the ability of fertilizers and other inputs so we recommend to use as little as 10% of other inputs with our solutions and/or you may not need the full rate of what you are using. Contact us (877-732-5360) if you have questions with this. A little goes a long way with this as it is so potent of a concentrate.
5What is the best way to use BlueGold® Garden Blend and Fusion Compost Veg in a vegetable garden?
Use the BlueGold® Fusion Compost VEG to soil water the plants when they need watering (usually a max of 2x per week). Follow the recommended rates on the label for 'root zone/soil watering' at 1 tbsp per 5 gallons of water. Then foliar spray (feed) the plants with the BlueGold® Garden, 15 minutes later, at 1 tablespoon per gallon of foliar spray minimum 3x per week. The foliar spray will feed and induce the plant to pull up nutrition from the roots.
6Does the BlueGold® Fusion Compost VEG NPK dissolve easy?
Yes, t\\Fusion Compost VEG is water soluble and will dissolve in water when mixed up, and all will go through a 70 micron +/- filter via particle size. It is also in a paste form. It needs to be broken up. This paste form is superior to a granular and saves filtration headaches. Before mixing into a reservoir, or spray tank or bottle we find it very useful to premix in a 5-gallon bucket or separate container with a little bit of water. Agitate with good stirring action, and then dump into your tank, then fill the remaining portion of the protocol up with water (and nutrients) as needed. Generally, we find that by putting in the Fusion Compost VEG first, the water hose is enough agitation to mix up the product when filling to your water line.
7Why is my BlueGold® Fusion Compost VEG NPK Paste bottle half full?
Fusion Compost is a product based on WEIGHT, not volume because it is a biologically alive paste it expands during shipping. To accommodate for this, we always bottle it in larger containers.
BlueGold® pH Up & Down Questions
1What is the best water source to use with pH Up?
Water is water, correct? It surely is not. City water contains all or some of the following: ammonia, chlorine, chloramine, fluorides, perchlorates, and hydrofluosilicic acid to name a few. If you do not have rainwater, distilled water, or reverse osmosis (RO) water, let your city water sit for 24-48 hours or more to evaporate some of the chemicals and then run through a carbon filter before you add your nutrients and feed the plants. The conductivity of the water is critical; the lower the conductivity, the more nutrient transferability the water exhibits.
2What is the power of 6.4 pH and water pH?
The industry puts little importance on resistance (pH) because we believe it does not fully understand it. The world’s definition of ‘potential Hydrogen’ (pH) can arguably be stated as simply a matter of “resistance.” All grow problems start with water, nutrients, soil, and a plant sap resistance (pH) that is below 6.3 or above 6.5. Problems will continue to magnify further out of balance the farther you migrate away from the perfectly balanced water/soil/sap resistance (pH) of 6.4. We have learned this over many years of research and development from the school of disaster and success. At this 6.4 resistance, (pH) the availability of nutrients is in abundance rather than being locked out by improper dielectric resistance levels. Think of this like magnetics. When the proper dielectric magnetic field strength is applied around the magnetic relationships between nutrients, harmony occurs. However, when an improper magnetic field is (think too strong or too weak) is applied to around the magnetic relationships of nutrients, disharmony and disorganization will occur resulting in some nutrient values being unable to pair and react with one another properly. This disharmony means your nutrients are unavailable to the plant; a little or a lot, but still unavailable. This may make more sense, ‘your hard earned money just went down the drain.’ Now you have to buy more nutrients. Each 1/10th of resistance (pH), for example, 7.0 to 6.9, represents a 100% difference. The difference between 7.0 and 6.0 is 1,000%. The exact proper water/soil/sap resistance (pH) is vastly significant in any environment, and simply cannot be treated lightly. With 6.4 being used as the marker for the perfect balance of resistance for elemental relations (nutrient to nutrient dielectric pairing and interaction), your nutrients become exponentially less available the further you move away from the nutrient water, soil and plant sap resistance (pH) of 6.4. So, “close” does not count in the game of resistance (pH), instead, it spells huge disaster and painful headaches. Using potent and caustic traditional pH adjusters can make this attention to dielectric resistance (pH) an even more difficult task, requiring high daily administering dose rates that put significant strains on the plants and impede root nutrient uptake. Also, these heavy chemical acids can separate from the liquids and fall out towards the bottom of the reservoir causing a lower pH at the bottom of the tank and a higher pH at the middle/top of the tank. Test this for yourself. High salts first impede Calcium, high chlorides first lockout Phosphate. Ever wonder why the industry cannot pound enough Calcium and Magnesium to the plants; with a resistance level of 5.9 to 6.1, these are the first to go along with Potassium and available Salts. NOTE: If you do not manage your water/soil or plant sap resistance (pH); it will manage you, and you will not like the results. This is the single most important simplistic foundational principle to successful growing. We want you to be to be successful at every level of your grow operation, no matter how big or how small or if this is your first grow or your 10,000th grow. Ever wonder why the bugs and disease show up out of nowhere it seems and why they seem unstoppable and keep coming? Because the plant sap pH is not at 6.4. Let us, please help you to understand better the why, where and what of 6.4. Plant sap resistance (pH) above 6.4 usually indicates missing micronutrients. Plant sap below 6.4 usually indicates missing macronutrients.
3What should I know before using pH Up/Down?
BlueGold® pH Up/Down are very powerful in moving the dielectric resistance (pH) up/down with very small amounts of the product added. ALWAYS err on the side of caution when you lower the pH of your nutrient tank for the first time. We do not want you to pass up 6.4 by going too low/high and then having to raise/lower it. Be patient with it. If you put it in the tank and run to 6.4 then come back in 15-45 minutes, you may find it crept down 0.2 to 0.3 tenths more. So follow the directions below and initially wait for 24h to see where/how it works with your chemicals / organic inputs and water. We have consistently seen the pH hold stable for up to 3 to 7 days with a 600-1000+ PPM chemical or organic solution range IF a bubbler is NOT used, and using JUST a tiny circulatory pump or wooden mixer and then let sit. The oxygen (anionic charge) caused by the bubbler will displace the Hydrogen charge and cause the resistance (pH) to bounce and/or creep up on the meter. We highly recommend no bubblers (aeration) at any time with this solution if you want the resistance (pH) to hold. Always pre-test the BlueGold® pH Up/Down in a smaller container (see instructions) and with your organic or chemical nutrients for at least 24h prior to adding to your system. It is safe, non-caustic (keep away from natural cloth fibers, it likes to eat them) and very gentle on you, the plants, roots, and the environment. Ever wonder where all the acids and chemicals go when they are sent down the drain or toilet? They all eventually end up in the oceans of the world. Think green.
4How do I use pH Up/Down with aquaponics?
BlueGold® pH Up/Down is fish safe when used in conjunction with clean water with a low PPM count below 200. This indicates that a tiny amount will be needed such as 5-10 mL per 15-20 gallons of water. If you place Calcium type stones in the ponds or fish tank water, you will be forever fighting this resistance battle. Choose your rocks or stones that maintain a close resistance to 6.4 to 6.7 and the stones will help self-adjust the water along with the proper aquatic plants. Then you need very little or no resistance (pH) adjusters. Harsh chemicals can cause the fish to barrel roll. All fish require differing resistance (pH) than plants.
5How do I use BlueGold® pH Up/Down?
1) First test all below with a 1 to 5-gallon bucket, to calculate how much you will need, to get to the desired 6.4 pH sweet spot. 2) Fill the bucket/reservoir. (If city water is used let it sit for 1-2 days to evaporate some of the chemicals off and carbon filter it.) 3) Add all your nutrients to the water, up to your desired EC / PPM level and stir with a wooden stir stick. (A wood stir stick will not give off a charge capacity liken to a metal or plastic stir stick which can hinder your nutrients.) 4) While stirring or circulating, dribble in, by syringe or eye dropper, a measured amount of the BlueGold® pH Up/Down till you reach the 6.4 pH (resistance). 5) Now let sit idle after mixing or circulating by a pump for 24h to see how your nutrients hold with the BlueGold® pH Up/Down at 6.4 pH. 6) You may need to adjust the resistance with your nutrients less or more after the 24h period to grab the 6.4 pH sweet spot. 7) Now the known correct amount will remain the same every time if your water conductivity remains stable. 8) Unless your water resistance or nutrients change then re-test the bucket system to learn the desired amount again. 9) NOTE: Our best success is with Blue Lab Wire to Probe Resistance (pH) Meters. Pen meters seem not as reliable as probe meters. 10) NOTE: 6.4 resistance (pH) is our empirical data sweet spot. It is merely our scientific suggestion for you to verify usability in your grow. NOTE: We are incredibly laser-focused on our customer’s satisfaction, needs, and feedback. Our goal is always 100% customer satisfaction, no matter the cost. We hope this helps a lot. Please call 877-732-5360 for Support or email james@edenbluegold.com anytime with any question or concern that may arise?
6On instructions it says not to use if over 200 PPM. Mine is going to be over 200 PPM. What happens?
All water sources are differing mostly from the chemical concentrations that are being relentlessly put into the system; it is the biggest factor that our Solutions work by. So, if you are above 200PPM, it will just move/displace the Hydrogen a little more. It will work, but we have found that it works better with the lower the PPM. We have seen some city water at over 900 PPM, and it pushes the Hydrogen around. No harm to the plants it just can hinder the workability of the product because the PPM is usually always in a synthetic form from municipal water sources. Please call (877-732-5360 x 103) with any questions or concerns, and we can quickly get you through it.
7Will BlueGold® pH Up/Down work in hydroponic nutrient mixing tanks? Wouldn't consider it 'clean water’?
BlueGold® pH Up/Down is primarily meant to be used in hydroponics. We suggest clean water (such as Spring or reverse osmosis, or well water) because it gives a much better foundation, to begin with. City water has many contaminants. Regardless of your water source, it is strongly advised to clean out a nutrient tank before beginning the use any new product so as not to initially reduce the benefits of the product on first use as your system's organic build-up adjusts/clean-up/etc. The BlueGold® pH adjusters are also being successfully used in pool and hot tub treatments, removing the need for shock treatments and constant pH adjustment.
8Will BlueGold® pH Up/Down work in koi ponds and plants in a pond?
Great Question! In all our years of testing and studies, we have found no detriment to any fish or plants using the pH Up/Down. We have customers who use this in aquaponic situations, and Hydro growers use this to maintain there plant pH levels also. This product works amazingly fast and well to reduce water pH when the water PPM/Conductivity is low. This is where it will lock it in, and at this rate, it takes just drops per gallon of water. Depending on how far you want to drop the pH and what your conductivity levels are? So, yes there is no detriment to the fish or the plants with low water PPM's. pH Up/Down is a safe hydrogen formula when used as directed. We have had customers comment when using this with fish they do not experience the deadly barrel rolling of the fish as they have with caustic acids when lowering the pH water levels. One caution: when lowering water pH with this product with higher PPM/conductivity levels. Example: your PPM is 270, and you want the pH at 7.0, and the water pH is at 7.9. You add a small amount, and it goes to 7.3 and sticks after that adding some more. You keep adding and all of a sudden it crashes to 6.0. So always err on the side of caution when adding larger amounts of pH Up/Down to the water. Put a little in and come back in an hour and it will eventually creep down. Patience is the virtue here as you are lowering a pH. When it gets where you want depending on the PPM's it will usually always stay there depending on the water quality. If you have city water; still let the city water sit for 24-48 hrs. so most of the chemicals will leach out into the atmosphere? Hope this helps! Instructions for Aquaponics on the insert included with every purchase: "BlueGold® pH Up/Down is fish safe when used in conjunction with clean water with a low PPM count below 200. This indicates that a tiny amount will be needed such as 5-10 mL per 15-20 gallons of water. If you place Calcium type stones in the ponds or fish tank water, you will be forever fighting this resistance battle. Choose your rocks or stones that maintain a close resistance to 6.4 to 6.7 and the stones will help self-adjust the water along with the proper aquatic plants. Then you need very little or no resistance (pH) adjusters. Harsh chemicals can cause the fish to barrel roll. All fish require differing resistance (pH) than plants.”
9Can I use BlueGold® pH Up/Down to lower the pH in a 30,000-gallon pool?
Yes, but there is a need to understand some elements first. pH is so crucial to keeping the water condition correct and not spending so much money on chemicals all the time. If the pH is off in a Marcite type pool finish the Calcium will be drawn out of the Marcite wall finish material. This happens in part because the Boron is off from the Calcium. If the Boron (Borax) is at 1 part to 300 parts Calcium, the water will be much more stable. So, in saying all this if your water is balanced the pH will hold very strong and long and you will not need the adjusting all the time. The pH Up/Down is very powerful and does not take much to sink and hold a pH depending on water quality. We have it in pools and spas and when the water quality is understood, and balanced our solution becomes your best friend in the pH shuffle game. Call with any questions anytime: (877) 732-5360 x 103.
10Can BlueGold® pH Up/Down be used with soil?
Yes, we have many customers who use this on their soil with excellent results!
11Can I use BlueGold® pH Down to reduce the pH of planting soil before planting acid-loving plants like blueberries? Can I use it to irrigate as well?
Yes! Take your water and lower the pH (resistance) to the desired water pH level and place in/on the soil. CAUTION: Depending on your soil composition and structure you will need to test the desired pH (resistance) level of the soil as you are progressing lower. However, we believe just by watering with the desired pH level it will pull the soil to the mixed water pH level ratio. We have had great success with the BlueGold® Garden Blend on blueberries through fertigation and foliar applications.
12What is the best water source to use with pH Down?
Water is water, correct? It surely is not. City water contains all or some of the following: ammonia, chlorine, chloramine, fluorides, perchlorates, and hydrofluosilicic acid to name a few. If you do not have rainwater, distilled water, or reverse osmosis (RO) water, let your city water sit for 24-48 hours or more to evaporate some of the chemicals and then run through a carbon filter before you add your nutrients and feed the plants. The conductivity of the water is critical; the lower the conductivity, the more nutrient transferability the water exhibits.

BlueGold® Worm Castings Concentrate Questions
1Can I use the BlueGold® Worm Castings Concentrate as a main source of nutrients instead of the BlueGold® Fusion Compost VEG NPK?
Worm Castings are very high in the broad spectrum micronutrient water soluble available nutrition. They have a 1-0.25-0.5 (1-0-0) NPK rating which depending on what you are putting them in to drive the plant(s)? We have put these on the marketplace to help supplement the plants and soil zones and to give instant available low volume nutrition. The plants respond well to them because these are all Castings with no fillers like most we have seen. The Fusion Compost VEG will drive the plants very well as the Worm Castings are more supplemental nutrition that will deal with flavors and plant BRIX levels. They will make a happier plant as you would instantly see if you try them in addition to the Fusion Compost VEG/FLOWER NPKs.
2Is your BlueGold® Worm Casting Concentrate Certified Organic?
BlueGold® Worm Castings is OMRI-listed for use in Certified Organic Programs! Certifiers requesting certificates can contact Nick at nick@edenbluegold.com.

4What is the rate of the BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® 30-Day Supply bottle?
Use a base rate of 1 teaspoon (approx. 5 mL or 5,000 PPM) per gallon of clean drinking water for any size or type of animal. We recommend Steam Distilled Water. If your pets are stressed, or going into or coming out of a stressed environment, or you are about to move or ship the animals (shipping animals use for 48 hrs. before transport), use double the above USAGE RATES per gallon of clean water for the first week, and then fall back to the above USAGE RATES per gallon of clean water.
5What is the rate of the BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® 16oz supply bottle?
Use a base rate of approx.1/2 teaspoon (approx. 2.5 mL or 2,500 PPM) per gallon of clean drinking water for any size or type of animal. We recommend Steam Distilled Water. If your pets are stressed, or going into or coming out of a stressed environment, or you are about to move or ship the animals (shipping animals use for 48 hrs. before transport), use double the above USAGE RATES per gallon of clean water for the first week, and then fall back to the above USAGE RATES per gallon of clean water.
6What is the rate of the BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® for a mouth drench?
You may drench any animal at ½ teaspoon (2.5 m/L) per 1oz (30m/L) of clean water per 100 pounds of body weight. Drench can be applied in mouth or rectum or both at the same drench time (slick the rectal syringe). Do not feed the concentrate contents directly to any animal. We recommend Steam Distilled Water.
7How do you store BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® once it is opened?
A cool area away from direct sunlight. In your cabinet is perfectly fine! Some people prefer to store in their refrigerator. All are fine as long as it is cool and out of direct sunlight.
8Does BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® work as a tapeworm dewormer?
Tapeworm(s) or Cestoda(s) are parasitic creatures in nature. Research we have seen says that these types of parasites are prevalent because the animal body resistance (pH) is above 6.4 and usually is running above 7.3. When you lower the resistance at or close to 6.4 you see these types of parasites leave the system due to conditional changes that they (Cestoda) do not flourish in. It is simply like growing mold; if you want to grow lots of molds, keep the conditions dark and damp. If you want to stop the mold, keep the conditions light and dry. So bringing the resistance into a harmonious cellular balance of 6.4 changes the conditions for these types of parasites, which they do not like. Also, a healthy immune system is the best guard against these types of predators because a healthy immune system is in a relationship with a balanced resistance level. We believe this all starts with clean, healthy proper nutrition and cellular delivery. Our studies also show that the Grand Champion can move the resistance (pH) among other things. As always consult your health care provider as the governing agencies have not evaluated these statements.
9Is BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® supposed to be dark in color and have earthy like smell?
Yes it is! BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® is comprised mainly of herbs and minerals!
10Where is BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® manufactured?
We manufacture BlueGold® Grand Champion right here at home in America.
11Can Apple Cider Vinegar be used with the BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® product?
You do not need to supplement the ACV; but if you feel you need to, you want very small amounts of it per gallon along with the BlueGold® Grand Champion PME®. The BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® contains Apple Cider Vinegar already. The drench could be 3 drops in 5-10cc.
12Can you explain your animal nutritional supplement: BlueGold® Grand Champion PME®?
A simple way to understand supplements and nutrients: If it is not water soluble, it is not available. Period. This is key for any nutrient absorption across membrane barriers. Solid feeds can only reach optimized nutritional absorption rates when your pet’s stomach acids, biology, immune system, and body pH are in perfect harmony and at proper levels. An imbalanced digestive and immune system will cause higher levels of undigested feeds, resulting in lower feed conversions. In addition to the above, one of the most significant issues plaguing digestion in animals today is intestinal biofilm, which directly inhibits proper absorption of nutrients. Biofilms are groupings of anaerobic bacteria that grow in the stomach lining and G.I. tracts. Once they reach maturity, they break off into multiples (like dandelion seeds when you blow on them), and attach to more areas of the lining/tracts to grow more biofilm. BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® washes away these harmful biofilms from your pet’s digestive system to enhance their gut health and digestion processes.
13What is the best water source to use with BlueGold® Grand Champion PME®?
Water is the most important element on earth but is said by many scientists to be the least understood. If your water pH is off by 1000% (7.4 vs. 6.4), this means the overall pH level of the animal will be significantly affected and hinder the ability to achieve the proper resistance (pH) of 6.4. for proper nutrient conversion. When your pet’s drinking water source is adjusted correctly, the proper ionic resistance can be obtained much more easily allowing the animal’s digestion to maximize food digestion and nutrient absorption. The most important factor is that City Water sources should be avoided at all costs, as the chemicals used to ‘purify’ the water, negatively affect ionic digestion efficiency in an extreme way. Spring or Well Water sources are optimal. Alternatively, for small water consumption levels by pets, you can use Steam Distilled Water or Reverse Osmosis water. Cellular hydration in your pet is one of the main keys to health. A hydrated cell will carry more electrical energy than a dehydrated cell. This is one reason why you will see your pet’s water consumption go up when they are on the BlueGold® Grand Champion PME®. Common chemicals found in City Water like Hydroflurosallicic Acid, Ammonia, Lead, Arsenic, Chlorine, Chloramine, Fluoride, Perchlorate(s), PCB’s, MtBE, Bromine to name a few are not beneficial to an animal’s body. We challenge you to research these for yourself to honestly see how your water source choice truly matters.
14Is BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® safe to use during animal gestation?
BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® is safe for all animal gestation periods, lactating, nursing mothers, nursing newborns, weaned animals, studs, and aging and young animals in any environment. Always have clean environments, clean equipment, and a clean water source (not City Water) for optimum results. Some common problems with gestation start with the protein supply during gestation. Microbial protein is the most efficient source of protein for your pet as its amino acid profile is very similar to that of milk. By promoting proper digestive microbial levels, and ensuring proper non-protein nitrogen (NPN) uptake, as well as amino acids and energy, milk production goes through the roof! It is essential to ensure consistent daily supply of NPN, and a failing digestive system cannot absorb this vital nutrient from the feed. By correcting the digestive biofilm health, the digestive function is optimized allowing for maximized health, fertility, and performance.
15How does BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® safeguard my pet?
Biology is at the root of all life on Earth! Safeguarding your pet starts with the quality of your feed and the management of bacterial growth in your pet’s feed and water, which in turn controls the growth of harmful or good bacteria inside your pets. Effective bacteria management is about addressing all the issues as one challenge. BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® is specifically designed to address these issues and help safeguard the health of your pet. BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® is intended to deter the growth of biofilm bacteria, and promote the growth of healthy bacteria. We believe a safe and healthy pet begins with BlueGold®!
16How does BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® increase feed efficacy?
As feed costs represent the most expensive aspect for many pet owners, often accounting up to 70 percent of costs in owning a pet, it is essential to make sure each bite of food is digested efficiently and turned into proper cellular energy! BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® helps to achieve efficient feed digestion through increased gut health and resistance (pH) balance. BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® is a proven safe and with no known side effects technology which works naturally with your pet’s digestive and immune system to stabilize digestive enzymes and good bacteria, resistance (pH), maximize nutrient absorption, and therefore reduce the overall cost of your pet’s food by causing your pet to eat less because they’re correctly absorbing the nutrition.
17Has BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® been Veterinarian tested?
Yes, Vets love BlueGold® Grand Champion PME®! Here is one testimony: "My study and experience with BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® use in animals: Times are certainly changing for veterinary medicine compared to 1981 when I graduated from veterinary school. I work with companion animals now, but I did spend 4 years in a large animal practice dealing with mainly beef cattle. Many antibiotics were used at that time. Since then, and rightfully so, the regulatory agencies are trying to continue the outstanding production of food animal producers while simultaneously improving the health of the animals and the human population at large. There has been a lot of concern of drug resistant bacteria due to the widespread use of antibiotics in animals. Because of the slim profit margins, it has been difficult for growers to lose this option. The “Holy Grail” of food animal production is a product that can work even better than antibiotics, yet offer complete safety to the animals and the human population.
I feel the BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® meets this criteria. It is a mineral/herbal supplement added in very small amounts to the water. It is very cost effective and easy to administer. I reviewed the Southern Poultry antibiotic test information and the independently determined study showed this supplement out performed antibiotics—a true win-win outcome.
I have clients that are using the BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® in their backyard chicken operations and others using it on every animal they own due to the results they have seen.
Again, I can not emphasize enough how excited I am about this product. As a veterinarian, I am pledged to help provide wholesome food production, while simultaneously protecting the health of the animals and the general public, the epitome of the “One Health Initiative”. A note on the use of the BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® in chickens. The flock is much more calm, they are not restless at all, thus improving their comfort and health.” -Terry “R” Wood, DVM, Mustang Veterinary Hospital, P.C., Mustang, OK (www.terrywooddvm.com)
18Does BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® help with animal fertility?
Not all pet owners are interested in reproducing, however even if reproductive organs have been removed/altered (or not) addressing this aspect is still essential to maintain a healthy pet! The nutritional management of animals has a direct influence on fertility performance, particularly in lactation. Often, fertility is an issue not focused on until the moment it is needed, but in reality, fertility is a process that starts with managing the quality of the embryo. BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® has been Veterinarian tested, and Independent Study proven to increase embryo and sperm counts significantly.
19Does BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® help with animal heat and dehydration?
Environmental and weather conditions can cause stress to your pet. This is not new information. We have covered nutrient issues quite well, which will cause stress when at improper levels. Another major stress factor is heat and dehydration. Carbon is the governor of water absorption. Even though your pets are drinking their water, their bodies can only hold so much. Carbon is the governing factor that dictates how much water your pets can store. Carbon is in every cell of their body (along with iodine). One pound of Carbon can absorb up to 5 pounds of water. By addressing the carbon levels of your pets through BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® (water and nutritional supplement with Carbon as an ingredient), proper Carbon levels are achieved allowing your pet to consume appropriate amounts of water and hold it more efficiently. Just like a healthy animal would not drink itself to death, a carbon imbalanced animal will not drink more than it can hold. This increase in water consumption allows for the animal’s system to more readily handle heat conditions while eliminating dehydration. Many users have verified this!
20Has BlueGold® Grand Champion and Eden Enzymes been lab and field study tested?
Yes! Both, BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® and Eden Enzymes have been extensively field tested in poultry, goats, cattle, and swine. BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® and Eden Enzymes have been Independent and Third Party Lab Tested. BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® has also been study proven better than the world's leading antibiotic (BMD 50g/t) in a necrotic enteritis challenge at Souther Poultry Research Inc., overseen by Dr. Greg F. Mathis, Ph.D. Please contact nick@edenbluegold.com to inquire about our lab and field studies.
BlueGold® Eden Enzymes Questions
1Regarding adding the Eden Enzymes to water: Is it best to do away with the larger water trough and only offer as much as the animal should drink in a day, or is it ok to keep a few days worth out at a time?
The Eden Enzymes can be injected into the drinking water system, placed in a larger water trough, or placed in a daily drinking container as per what the animal will drink each day. If you place in a larger water trough that may last a few days to a week, you do not want the water to be in the direct sunlight as it can degrade the Eden Enzymes.
2Should I use BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® instead of BlueGold® Enzymes or in addition to them?
BlueGold® Grand Champion dietary supplement for use in water is designed to exponentially increase the hydration of cells, thereby increasing the overall oxidation response of the whole body (immune response). The increased hydration also increases the fuel to the mitochondria. Using just BlueGold® Grand Champion PME® will elevate the total immune system response (study proven) through increased hydration and oxidation, and thereby lowering stress levels as well; as we see in almost every case. Additionally, the wetter water is excellent at removing built up bio-film, which results in increased nutrient uptake thereby decreasing nutrient input while still increasing weight gain (study proven). The Eden Enzymes provides high doses of enzymes to enhance digestion, thereby increasing nutrition; and with increased nutrition comes significantly improved immune response. By using them together, you are compounding the best options not only to increase immune response but improve the overall health and production.
3What are the dosing instructions for Eden Enzymes?
For best results, mix doses with the animal’s drinking water. Proper doses are 10 mL (1/3 fl. oz.) per 100 lbs of body weight. Eden Enzymes can be used with dosing medicator pumps for large-scale or used by hand to add to drinking water containers. Most users will experience immediate results within 24 to 48 hours.
4How do I store Eden Enzymes after opening?
For best results keep in a cool dark place and use within 1 year of purchase date. Do not store in the refrigerator, or in other forms of ‘cold’ storage. Protect from temperatures below 45°F.
