hi. this is my first try and we are 36 days into flower and i have only been using advanced micro, grow, bloom, tarantula, and piranha. I just picked up some tiger bloom, grow big, and big bloom. im wondering if i can just start adding the recommended amount to my current dose, or if at this point is it even worth it? or should i just wait till next time?

also is it useful to use tarantula and piranha thru flowering?

I hate to break it to you but you wasted your money on additional nutrients. How many bottles of NPK do you need? The 3part can be tweaked to supply more PK or more N at any time, as well as supplying an adequate amount of secondary macro and micro nutrients. So why do you need 3 more bottles when you've already got the basics covered???

I don't have any experience with Advanced Nutrients but it looks like you have enough nutes in that line itself. Why your friend told you to go out and pick up a second line of nutes is beyond me :?:

I'd say just stick with AN for this grow and if you want to switch it up next time, use the FF nutes.

I'm just getting back into growing after a few years off but I always used Peters Bloom Booster at 1/2 strength and it worked great. Full strength burned up the leaves but 1/2 was perfect. I hope I can still find it when I flower. I used to get it at Lowes.

So, Homebrewer, are you on a mission to just tell people to not use AN? Yeah, you're not a shill. LOL

Let's answer the grower's question, shall we?

I think the lineup of nutes you have going right now is good and you don't need to add any more at this point. What I would say is that you want to try to use the extra nutes your next grow and earlier in the flowering stage.

But you know that now and you've learned.

I think at this point your plants aren't going to be able to use anything more. It's like trying to overfill a gas tank.

Stick with the nutes you have, tell your caregiver to keep doing what you're doing, and the next grow, make sure you have a plan in mind to use those other nutes.

good luck with the caregiver - I am too paranoid to leave my babies with anyone else.

Your reading comprehension is seriously deficient, probably like your plants ;). I was saying that he already had everything he needed with his 3 part, then asked why he went out and bought another line of nutes. I hope you're high and not just stupid ;).
