Dyna Gro? Opinions, Experience

So I just picked up some rooted clones from a local dispensary.
It's been about two years since I've grown.--- Recirculating hydro in rock-wool, t5 for clones.----- and I've always used Advanced Sensi with great results.
However since reading up now, I've heard bad things about advanced and so opted to try Dyna Gro based on a recommendation.
I've got...
.....
Dyna Foliage Pro
Dyna Pro Tekt Silica
Botanic are CalMag
H202.

Any suggestions on supplements and/or testimonials for dyna gro products?

Thanks and thanks again -_-

I'm a DG fanboy but for good reason. Foliage pro is great for veg. Protekt is good from start to finish. For flower you're going to want to pick up their Bloom and maybe try a 70/30 bloom:grow split to keep the plants green (tweak from there). You're not going to need the calmag.

As far as supplements go, none are needed but some humic/fulvic/sea kelp type additives can be beneficial in hydro regardless of the nute brand. For that I like GH.

Thanks for the reply. It's been two years since I've grown and i'm just kinda brushing up. I just purchased 4 clones and they don't seem to be doing what I remember as far as growth rate. Could be impatience I dunno. The fact that i'm using something new I thought Id try and get some opinions.

Unless you've grown these EXACT cuts before, you should have zero expectations for them. Be patient and let them do their thing.

Okay. Yeah it's not that they're not growing it's just they don't seem to be photosynthesizing at a healthy rate. I'm wondering if because i used CalMag with the foliage pro I may have locked them up?? I guess I'll check em out in a few days and see if the roots make it out of the 2 inch cubes. thanks

Also. Do you think the rockwool staying wet for a whole day is breeding grounds for root rot? Again i'm used to heavy feeding plants that dry up every 8-10 hrs

You need to stop over thinking things. Give them a nice environment, light, food, and water, and then leave them alone.

Or get Advanced Sensi Bloom. Has all those additives in the base so no need for that frankenstein bloom/grow 70/30 mix. Nice HB.

Sensi users must love making trips to the grow shop for more plant food because those watery bottles don't last very long.

Yea, It really takes a big bite out of that 40$ an 1/8th budget.

yeah I've always had excellent results with advanced. But I cranked up the heat and mixed a full strength mix of just dyna gro foliage pro (5mil per gal) and they're perking up.
I'm still thinking I will go to sensi a/b for bloom with some additives.

The cost of using watery plant foods does add up, especially for folks who run bigger reservoirs or multiple lights. But I'm talking about the inconvenience and risk of visiting the grow store way more often than should be necessary. And all that extra money and effort spent just to under-perform? That makes zero sense to the educated grower.
