Alternative nutes to fox farm

I'm currently using fox farm and their feeding schedule is quite the number of different nutes. Wondering what other systems people recommend that don't have so many different bottles going into their feeding schedule.

Thanks!

Da Kine 420 powdered nutes are a huge hit here. 3 part but you only mix all 3 one time for transition from veg to flower. American made in Oregon.

Oh, should've mentioned, soil medium. Is da kine 420 just for hydroponic medium? I have used the general hydroponics before, was thinking of switch back to that.

Have you considered using Jacks Hydroponic 5-12-26 with Calcium Nitrate 15-0-0 and Magnesium Sulfate in the 321 ratio? Works great in soil and very easy to modify the strength depending on the lifestage of your plants. I use it with tap water and never bother with PH or PPM measurements. Simple and eliminates all the bottles of magic elixirs. I use it every watering; 1.8g/1.2g/0.6g for seedlings, and just increase as needed in the same ratio. Mix the hydro and MgSO4 together and the CaN separately then combine.

I can discuss it further if you are interested. I add nothing else and use it start to finish. Here is a shot of my latest grow five weeks from seed; left to right Fire OG, Wedding Cake and Gorilla.

I have not. But I'll switch to this or general hydroponics once I run out of fox farm. Probably ping you on this thread when that time comes. Can't decide between general hydroponics and what you suggested though. Is your solution likely the most economical in the long run as its made for professional usage? And it's sold dry instead of shipping mostly water?
