Well, I haven't done a side by side, but I have used B-52 and found it to be pretty awesome. Stronger plants, heavier harvests. To me, that's enough proof. Gotta say though, I'd be interested in finding out more from other growers. I love side by side tests! (Mostly since I don't have to do...

You have a lot of questions and I'm going to try to help find out what you're really asking. 1. are you looking for a nutrient brand or just the best nutrients of all that are out there? 2. are you interested in carb supplements? I say that if price isn't an issue to look into the AN growing...

Holy crap. That is a lot. What else did you do? What kind of water did you use? I haven't used these nutrients before, but it sounds like something we could all learn from...

Uh, I think that using something like a super soil means it already has nutrient in it. I don't know if adding more nutrients is a good thing...IMHO. Why did you want to use both?

I'm not sure what you mean by better. I didn't have a great time with Fox Farm, but things are working out great with AN. What are you looking for your nutrients to do for you? I mean, besides what we all want...LOL

Nice info patlpp - thanks for sharing!!

You will probably be fine, but there are two ways to look at this.... 1. Some say that newer plants are more able to heal themselves since they're in a hyper growing period. 2. Some say that newer plants are more fragile, so little injuries can ruin the plant. For me, I would go with #1. I...

I have to admit that these are sounding a little small to me too. Yes, a part of that could be genetics, and you just got short plants, but it also sounds like maybe you have too small of pots for these plants to thrive. They almost sound stifled to me and that's not going to help you out at...

Vegging nutes don't get added until about 4 weeks in. This way, the plant has a chance to get started, but I'm not sure what sort of medium you're using. And yeah, like the other guy said, you need to make sure that you are reading the instructions on the packages. I use Advanced Nutrients...

Outdoor plants are tricky because there could be ANYTHING wrong with them. there are just so many variables that I personally would never try my hand at growing outside. Too much work for me. Now, what you're describing sounds like nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, or a zinc deficiency. So...

Dude. I've had that happen to me before and that SUCKS a big one. I would just start over. At least you weren't too far along in the process because that would super suck. And keep the plants out of the kitteh's way the next time. They LOVE the weed. :peace:

You know, I know there are products that are supposed to really help your roots take off, but I'm just not sure they are necessary. I mean, if you know a strain has troubles taking off, then I would say yes, but most of the time, I really don't think the rooting compounds really help. And...

Personally, I think you're on the right track with what you have right now. Though you could always add more nutes, to me, it seems like you might be pushing things a little too hard. You want to make sure that you're only using what your plants need - no more and no less. You don't want to...

Sound logic here. And really, who the heck knows the difference between 'truth' and 'opinion'? I mean, Uncle Ben, for all of your great advice, in the end, it is your opinion and your version of the truth. Everyone does their nute feeding differently - we can't all do the same things that a...

That sucks...just when the thread was getting good....LOL Good luck man! :blsmoke:

Yeah, I would strongly encourage you to drop down the nute levels too. Though Grow-Micro-Bloom works well, it's a little too high powered for most plants at first. But if you'd gotten a ppm meter, you would have realized it, knocked down the concentration and avoided any problems....:mrgreen...

seriously? Advanced Nutrients is the BEST when it comes to hydroponics. I would say that it's something that works really well, especially when you use it a little lighter than the instructions say. I like: Grow-Micro-Bloom Bud Candy Big Bud This is the basic recipe I like, but I tend to...

Thanks Funk Ya for the support. I don't really care what others say about me because the forums are all about lively debates and some people agreeing with others and people arguing with others. All a part of the fun, right? And really, some people will not be swayed about anything, even if...

Meh, I think the Miracle Gro will be fine for your soil, at least it's organic. That's reassuring. Anything makes me nervous since it's chock full of chemicals and nasty stuff. Wouldn't inhale that if you paid me to. Other than that, your nutes are sounding good and your strategy sounds...

Wow, you do have a lot of questions, but it also sounds like you've done your homework...how rare that is on the boards. Another grower already gave you the same answers as I would have, so I would just throw in my two cents about growing hydro over aero. To me, aero is just too tricky...
