Advanced Nutrients Feeding Schedule

I just received Sensi Grow & Bloom A+B, Big Bud, Bud Candy, and B-52 in the mail. Still need to go pick up a syringe? <--- best way to measure out mL?


I don't really know of any sort of scheduling with those nutes, if anyone could give me suggestions or something?

With seedings and clones start with 1/4 doses. Use each product during weeks stated on the bottle. I use half a 1/4 dose for seedings and clones so that would be 2ml of sensi a & b each and 1ml of whatever additives and slowly work your way up. If you can, try and pickup overdrive. Also for a more detailed look at their schedual go to their website and click on the nutrient calculator. A.N. is expensive and a lot of guys here at them but they work great! I think most people dont like them because yes you can grow dank herb with much less for cheaper but thet have a big lineup with a big price tag. Im new to Advanced myself but know a lot of people using them and I can see a big difference already.

I would head to the nutrient calculator on the AN website. It's always helped me out with dosing.

Or you can call the customer service line. They've answered some questions for me, even some really dumb ones when I was first starting out.

That'll depend mostly on how much you're measuring. Say we're talking about the Sensi 2-part and your dosing rate is going to be 4mL/L... how many liters are you making? 5? Measuring 20mL would probably be easier with a syringe. 50L? Well 50x4 is 200mL and that would be really tedious to measure by syringe. The idea is to find a measuring device that works within reasonable accuracy in the range you're needing it to work. A 200ml flask would be accurate enough for larger amounts, but for less you'll want a graduated cylinder, syringe, or something like that.

Ultimately though, it's not screamingly important that you be laboratory-precise. Decently close is enough. It's more important to err on the side of under-nuting than over-nuting and to keep the amount of nutrients you add in proportion to each other... again, within reasonable degree of accuracy.

Like decrimCA pointed out, their website has a good calculator that I find pretty easy to understand but some people say they have trouble with. Their tech support phone guys are good at explaining things. For the most part it's pretty simple. Full dose of base nutes (the Sensi you have) is 4mL/L, and the rest - the supplements - are all 2mL/L each. But they're used at different times so you want to check the chart. For small plants you cut that in half, and for seedlings/cuttings you cut it in half again (quarter strength).
