Has anybody used or still currently using the rock brand nutrients I searched it on Google and only found one forum talking about it and it was not very educational on the subject. Just want to know some people's experience with it. Thinking about trying it out

I haven't used all their products but I like the resinator. It's pretty pricey but it can turn an ordinary strain into a frosty one. It's also a good bloom booster too so don't use any more pk products along with it. I have been told it tricks the plant into thinking it's sick so it produces more trichs. I didn't like that aspect of it so I tried The Terpinator which is pretty similar but it's only 0-0-4 and you can feed it in veg too. But I got better results with the resinator .

Ok i was About to buy some turpinator I'm glad you said that
 
They are so over priced. Everything they make can be found in other nutrients for $10 less. Do they work? Yep. But other nutes do too for cheaper.

That's what I thought I told a 20+ year grower bad I'm using Fox and farm. And he said why I use a rock and you get what you pay for

What other products are $10 or less that is similar to Terpinator or Resinator.
I can't find a picture of the back of a bottle or a derived from list for either. The Resinator description sounds like a simple PK + citric acid, but can't be sure without the derived from list.
 
If I remember right resinator is just a blend of phosphates potash and acids. It's a great product because its an all in one where other lines make you buy two bottles for the same result/recipe. But i just dont think its as special as they claim especially for the price. I didn't mean that other nutrients are $10, but competitors prices are $10 less than theirs. Terpinator is the shit though. Cheap, works great, and can be used in so many lines without affecting feeding ratios.

Ya resinator is monopotasium phospate but there is something that tricks the plant into thinking it's under fungal attack and creates more trichomes. I have tried both and they both work the same. I was told terpinator is more natural product because resinator has monopostasium phosphate. Resinator is more money but you you have to use more of terpinator to get the results of resinator so I guess it kind of evens out. Also the resinator is good in the last weeks of flowering to fatten up your buds.

The terpinator works but you really have to push it and use 20-30 mL per gallon. It stinks but I wish they would make a more concentrated version so you dont have to buy a lot but they got to make their money I guess. I dont use Advnaced any more but if I was you I would just use up what you have left and stick to their base. All their additives are rip offs and their two part jungle juice formula is so simple and will probably give you the same results as if you werent using those additives.

A #50 bag of Potassium Sulfate will cost you about $30 and is 0-0-50. It is the same ingredient as Terpinator at a fraction of the cost.
Thats true but it's not the only thing that Terpinator is made out of. If they posted all their ingredients, other companys would try to imitate them.

The active and only relevant ingredient is Potassium Sulfate. At the dilution rate that they use in order to get it to 0-0-4 the Potassium Sulfate should dissolve completely and stay that way.

I hope thats not true, I'd like to think there's some products out there that could that do what they claim. I think I might buy a bag and make my own bottle nutes to be sold at hydro stores.

The product will do as claimed. The people who make Terpinator did just as you suggested, Buy a bag of Potassium Sulfate, water it down, sell it to hydro stores. The whole cannabis fertilizer industry is run like that. All of the nutrients that are marketed to cannabis growers are way over priced in comparison to retail garden stores/agricultural suppliers.

Thanks for the insight and I totally hear what you're saying. I went from buying 8 bottles to just using base nutes. For me it's a lot easier than making my own soil and really don't spend too much on nutrients. I just figure with the technology and advancements now a days, these companies could actually have a breakthrough product that could do something they claim. I did read that potassium sulfate was an aroma enhancer, I just like trying new products that come to the stores. It's not because I'm a sucker but more along the lines seeing if I can get better results from previous grows. What are your recommendations? Do you use bottles nute or cook your own soil. I know there isn't any potassium sulfate in my base nutes so the terpinator helps make more terpines and I can smell the results haha. I think other earth juice has meta k that is the same ingredients but cheaper and not watered down like Terpinator, peace.:blsmoke:
