ok so im getting ready to start my first grow, 4 plant dwc with drip in an 4x2x8, got my 400w mh ready and a 400 hps ready for flowering, and walls painted white.have an air in and out ready, and a small fan to blow on the plants.I only missing two things.Seeds which i hope are coming this week, and my nutes.

Ive decided to go with the AN 3 step grow micro bloom, using a GH ratio ie, veg 3:2:1 bloom 1:2:3 and have fox farm big bloom.

Now my question is, Am i missing any other important nutes, i mean i know i can buy like every product and they'd be useful, but is there any integral ones ive missed , doesnt hafta be AN although if i remember from reading on here mixing dif companies isnt always a great idea.

Anyway any input would be appreciated thanks:mrgreen:

i'd say stick with one brand. I love fox farms, grow big, big blooms and tiger bloom as well as the extra additives open sesame, buds on demand, and cha ching, for increased essential oils. the one i don't need is the beastie blooms you only use that for one week

AN also has B52 witch is like a speed to the plant thast about all we use for veg & we also use the calmag from another brand cause its cheaper than thier synzimes & has both of them in 1 bottle for 18$

look into carboload.....
...Which is molasses. Make your own. 1 tablespoon molasses whipped into a gallon of water. I add a kelp extract to that, and feed to the roots direct-might be a little sticky in DWC, I have no experience of them but someone on the site will have tried it and be able to let you know of any problems.

u dont need molases, someone did a journal test with it & did a test with & without same conditions same time. & really ddint get a diffrence.
also AN has a calculator on their site for how manny gallons of wayer u are using ect.. way better
we use AN our selves & it works good.
but dont use their full amount cause it will put the ppm high. u use about half what they say u should use for the # of gallons u use, your ppm should be from 450-600ppm, so is u use 1/4 it will be aorund 200-450. u get it
here is thier web site calculator remember to change the setting on the calculator for veg/bloom/ gallons or metric.

we use the medium feeding only cause our plants dont like nuts over 1000ppm, all depends on your breed. A very strong/ genetic breed can take nuts 1200ppm & up.
but the formula i recomend still applies cause u will over shoot your ppm goal very easy.
remember its easy to raise the ppm not lower it.
& normally growing indoors u dont need all that voodoo stuff & other pestasides. unless your house is very vonderble. we are in week 3 off flower & still havent had any problems.
read their site it will tell u what everything does.

awesome i think ive nailed it down. im gonna use the 3 part with f-1, h-2, b52, sensizyme(or a similar product), and maybe voodoo juice for veg and all the above(minus voodoo) plus bud blood, big bud , overdrive and final phase. ive also got fox farms big bloom, can i use it instead of big bud?

i guess u can use the fox farm, but i dont think its recomended mixing diff brands. but i may be wrong. like i was saying about the synzime is thier a company that has a product called calmag , witch is both of AN's synzims in 1 bottle for like 18$ compared two 20$ each for AN.
but yes you can start off the nuts like that, but its more of your plants telling u they can take more cause if they start 2 burn them u need to back down on nuts.
aslo u dont flush when going from veg to bloom. just start the new cycle.
u jsut start using more bloom now & add a few more bud stimulants.
flush the plantsd when your bloom cycle is over & your ready to harvest.

awesome thank you very much, so do i use the same measures as the sensizyme? also with the fox farm would u consider that comparible to the big bud, like could i use it instead of, or including. thanks

Uses the Rollitup profile
CalMag is a supplement for additional Calcium and Magnesium, if your nutrient doesn't have enough already. I don't think there are any beneficial enzymes in it. For an alternative product of Sensizyme, there is Cannazyme, and Hygrozyme.
