I've been using them as long as I've been growing indoors, about eight years now. Don't quote me, but I would say that the majority of indoor growers use non-organic nutrients. If not all sythetic, a portion of them will be.
Is it better to grow a lot of untrained plants or fewer trained plants?

The biggest issue with synthetics is they are supposedly really bad for the environment. I'm doing my first organic grow, but I'm doing it more for the learning experience than anything else, and I do like it much more than growing with synthetics. I also grow in soil, though, so I would imagine it would be a lot more difficult to grow organically with hydro.

Yeah, this is my 2nd ever grow. 1st ever hydro grow! It does seem much harder to grow organically in hydro through! I don't think I'm totally synthetic though!
So far I have really enjoyed hydro it's crazy!

I just started to use these nutrients. So far getting pretty good results. I am not doing it with clones from the same plant however. I am running a multi strain dwc with 1 bucket being fed using this chart. Plant is growing healthy so far without any problems. Do not have an overall opinion yet as I will try them again if this first plant does well. There's a few growers journaling on IG ad a few other platforms. Anyways...maybe an option to look into.

Got a question about the GH Flora series...The chart has feeding bloom nutes while in veg. Or at least on the bottle it does. Should I be adding that as well or do people skip the blooms until they are in flower?
I always used all three bottles for all stages of growth. About 2/3 of what's recommended of each. If I recall rightly though, they have a few stages of growth on there. I always just mixed at the full on veg and full on flower mixtures. For very young plants, I diluted the mixture in half. Very rarely did I have to increase past that 2/3.
If I'm not mistaken, the bloom nutes contain P & K, and both are required in veg.

Yeah, I'm using all 3 bottles just more nitrogen in veg ann more potassium in flower! And yeah I also believe I'm also 75% nute strength!

I used v+b so all synthetic over here. Only organic system I’ve noticed any difference is anything is living soil. And it’s only with some strains. Salts are easier, cleaner, and less work.

You should always be feeding some combination of veg AND bloom nutes if you aren’t running a single full cycle.

I mean they seem to be doing their job pretty well!

Either this is a troll or you are an idiot..... Flushing is for toilets not plants. You dont starve the plants the last and most important weeks of the grow, all you are doing is killing yeild and quality.... The dry and cure is what makes a good smooth smoke, not thinking that giving it water is going to somehow magically remove nutrients that are mostly immobile to begin with....
Now I know you're a fucking idiot smhOk and is your method of growing used in the industry? Because just about every large grow up flushes their plants for 1-2 weeks before harvesting. But hey, to each his own. If you like smoking super nutrient rich bud, have at it
