I'm trying to pick nutrients for my next grow. I will be growing Kushberry, Kandy Kush, and Nirvana NL. Cost is a big factor in things, but staying organic with a hard to mess up nutrient is also prime.

Here's the basics of the grow:

Mothers:

up to 4 plants
400w Hortilux Bulb
400w Lumatek Balast
Hydrofarm Cooltube
Custom made drip system
Rockwool mini Cubes
6" Magnum Square pots

Mothers will be kept at 900ppm under Ionic Grow, plain tap water w/ added Hygrozime. They get sprayed weekly with a solution of Fossil Fuel, Nitrozyme and Thrive alive green (5-6 drops of each to 500ml distilled water, weak mix)


Clones:
Sunleaves Pioneer Jr IV 96w T5 6000k
Homebox XS
Trays, heating mats

Right now I will be taking clones in root riot cubes, with clonex gel in a humidome. Should be adiquate.


Flowering and Veg (not built):
Three Shelf Stadium, 6.5 x 6.5 x 6.5
2000w, Dual 1000w Sunmaster Warm Deluxe MH w/ C.A.P. Valueline Ballasts
Two C.A.P. 8" Inline Ducts
Can Filter 1000 38 Special
Sunshine Mix #4
36 Plants, 3 Gal Pots
Hydrologic Small Boy Filter (Zero Clorine!)

I'll be running 3-4 weeks of veg after the clones are well rooted. They will be transplanted into 1 gal pots and arainged around 1000w of light, 18 hours a day. Once they are root bound they will be transplanted into 3 gal pots and both bulbs will be turned on.

Now for nutes, I have some want to stay organic. However I'm looking for something easy to use. I will be delivering the nutes from a 50 gal trash can w/ a pump and watering wand, spraying each pot with the nutes.

Right now, I have calculated out the cost of nutes for the following lines, using their feeding charts.

Fox Farm: $145
Grow Big, Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom
+ Solubles (Open Sesame, Beasty Blooms, Cha Ching)

Botanicare: $150-160
Pure Blend Pro Bloom Soil 5-15ml
Cal Mag 5ml (bloom only)
Liquid Karma 10ml
Sweet 10ml
Hydroplex Soil 15ml (Flowering week 3-8 )

Roots Organics: $206
Buddah Grow
Buddah Bloom
Trinity
HP2
HPK
Organizim XL
(Calculated cost based on their soil feed chart)

Advanced Nutrients: $254

I made my own chart for this one

Iguana Juice Grow
Iguana Juice Bloom
GE Fulvic and Humic
Carbo Load
Voodoo Juice
Bud Blood
Big Bud Powder
Overdrive

Veg formula per 100L Water:
100mL Iquana Juice Grow weeks 1-2
125mL Iquana Juice Grow weeks 3-4
50mL Humic
50mL Fulvic
10g Carbo Loag
100mL Voodoo in weeks 1-2

Flowering:
125mL Iguana Juice Bloom
100mL Humic
100mL Fulvic
20g Carbo Load
300/250/250mL Voodoo Juice week 1/3/6
40g Bud Blood week 1
32g Big Bud Powder weeks 2-5
200/180/120mL Overdrive weeks 6/7/8
Flush 9.

I know this is a lot of information to crunch, but given the options above, which will present the best finished product?

You cant tell based on really any of that, every strain is going to be different of course you know that so now what strain are you going with. Oh and all nutrients are going to have a diff. effect on each strain.

This is a joke right?
Deadset,would you really spend that much money?

For the grow, I will be doing Northern Lights for the first run. I have a 3ft tall vigorous mother that will work just fine, and has proven to be easy to clone. Sunshine mix is the cheapest stuff I could find in town ($35/bail) and comes highly recommended by everybody, Bonus.

Money is an object. I have been tossing around just using Pureblend Pro and Cal-Mag, about 7.5/2.5 mL / gallon through the whole grow. I also would love to try a more organic product, like Iguana Juice or Pure Blend.

My requirements are:

1. Cost
2. Ease of Use
3. Yield
4. Medicinal Value of cannabinoids

Old Age is available in town as well, really the only nutrient brand I have to mail in would be BMO or Advanced. I'm concerne with ordering $400 worth of AN from some place online, it would be painfully obvious what that is for. Rather, I'm leaning towards now Pure Blend Pro.

For soil, should I mess with their grow product or should I just go soil bloom from veg through harvest?

im usin iguana juice bloom right now, but have only done two or three feedings with it so far. i can tell you that after my first one or two feedings with iguana juice bloom and big bud together, my cola started growing tumors of bud.

I hear that Iguana juice is great for big yields and big bud would only seem to improve on that. I had planned on using the same, adding carbo load.

yeah, i am actually about to order carboload, senzysm, overdrive, and bud blood from this site. i can get all those for a hundred bucks!!
