my soil mix is enviromentaly friendly, low carbon footprint and sustainable and no part of the planet is raped for its soil. but that looks just like the soil the moles dig up in the fields and by the side of the roads. black as sin, real fertile. plus moles leavve you ppiles of it allready sieved and destoned lol. just add it to compost and organic potting soil from tip

shit like that allways pisses me off, the company care more about getting your money, or they would include it with the original NPK mixture and sell you an all in one or at least a two or three part NPK mixture with it added

The price isnt bad, and when compared to other lines the entire lineup would cost less than any other companies base nutrients . If you wanted to go cheaper get the powder version and you really only need to run one of the two to be successful. There is a reason why GH is the longest running nutrient line out there :)

It only shines through at peak times in "key" amounts....
I only use some things in VEG or FLOWER only...& only on certain weeks also

Others I used all the way through

I use Clearex Like CalMag...
Once a Week....
It Helps clear out the last weeks feed ...then opens the plant up for the next weeks feed.
Im DWC so I can toy around in the root zone more than a soil or coco grower,

filtered tap water to 0.5 micron and bubbled for a couple days off n on, 67*-69*f res temp, GH Flora 3 part nutes mid chart strength in dtw rockwool. stable PH, vigorous growth, healthy.
I like it simple.

Besides GH Flora and Calmag (coco) the only additive I use regularly is silica in veg. Simple does work better for me too. Keeping everything dialed in and a good stable environment causes a lot less issues and thats what my plants always liked. Every time I try the flowering boosters of any kind I can't tell. Of course I don't grow in quantity and I like to try new strains and different breeders almost every time so unless I go to the trouble to do a side by side I don't know. Heard a couple folks mention Big Bud and I may try it for my next grow because I always wanted too since I started because it was one of the first with a really cool label. I think at first most of us want some magic nutes because it is human nature to want to feed children.

I installed a 4 stage whole home water filtration system for our home. No reverse osmosis or anything, but it's made a big difference in our water.

awesome upgrade, everything that uses water is happier.
repurposed the old under sink r.o. (minus the membrane stage) for the grow water.
using three 10" filter cans in series w 10 micron, 1 micron and 0.50 micron filters.

I'm using 3 4x20 filters and a 50 micron spindown filter. We are on a well that has high iron and all that and its cleaned it up a TON while improving water pressure.
