    No, it's a poor choice for a number of reasons........loads of heavy metals and cheap ingredients , it's N-P-K is not geared towards marijuana in growth or bloom, it's not a "complete" fertilizer and numerous others issues- it's cheap for a reason, it's crap.

    Although it is not the best choice it works fine for keeping mothers in the veg state.

    no no no-

    this is some of the best fert's in the world. the proffessional line is a step up from the "classic".

    get the bloom booster also. mix equal parts together and feed that all the way through, until you better learn to dose n p k's.

    world class fert.

    I've never read a more misinformed post on this site, which says a lot considering the skill level of most of the growers here. Peter's makes some of the cleanest plant food available to us and I can back that statement up with reputable links. What I'd like you to do is back up your statement with reputable links.

    In regards to it not being 'complete', we'll you're right but it contains more minerals than probably 9 out of 10 hydro store foods which are 'geared towards marijuana', right? So I guess MJ doesn't need all those essential elements, is that what you're saying?

    20-20-20 is a poor choice of fertilizer for marijuana and any knowledgeable grower will attest to that. All elements are necessary for healthy growth, but some can be in the soil mix and not in the fertilizer. Use a "complete" hydroponic fertilizer for best results and that's not disputable. Peter's growers report a build up of salts quickly, especially in flowering which screws with your pH eventually. Flush often if you choose to you this stuff. And it's cheap for a reason- it's crap. Try to use a fertilizer that relies on organic ingredients, not the cheaper chemically produced salts like Peters. And that's a fact, Jack!

    A 1-1-1 NPK ratio is an all purpose plant food. What ratio/NPK value do you think is better suited for cannabis?

    Peter's growers report a build up of salts quickly, especially in flowering which screws with your pH eventually.
    Some formulas are saltier than others but I'd like to see a link to these 'reports'. Additionally, salt buildup is directly correlated to application rate so that has to make you wonder, how much were 'they' applying?

    And it's cheap for a reason- it's crap. Try to use a fertilizer that relies on organic ingredients, not the cheaper chemically produced salts like Peters. And that's a fact, Jack!
    I promise you that your 'organic ingredients' are going to contain more heavy metals than mineral derived salts. Again, got a link confirming anything you've stated in regards to jacks being 'cheap' or containing 'loads of heavy metals'?
