Are there any affordable nutes that require little skill to use? I fear burning my plants and losing a harvest if i introduce them. Would it be more cost effective to up my wattage?
Background- On my last grow years ago i used miracle grow potting soil and no nutes under a 400hps and yielded about 100g. This was back when miracle grow was frowned on, im not sure if that is still the case. I figure if you can eat tomatoes grown with it then it must be safe. Anyway, now i am planning a 150hps in 2.5x2.5 tent (pending legalization). I figure i can do the grow for $90 for all bills without nutes (5 gh seeds, 4 months of electric, potting soil) and yield 38g. This would probably be enough since im a light smoker, but im curious to see if i am missing out by not using nutes. Would my cost/g drop? Right now i figure its about $2.50. Should i just finish the last month of flowering with a 400hps? (I already have one). 38g would probably be enough yield, but id like to be able to smoke an eighth a week which over 14 weeks is 49g so a little boost above my estimated yield would be nice. I would be a very happy tooker with .5g/day .
