I've been growing using General Hydroponics Flora Duo for about a year and a half and I'm looking to switch things up. Results have been good, but I would like to explore my options.
Info:
I do a custom built flood and drain ScrOG setup using an 8x3 foot flood table under a 600w HPS setup, I usually keep the plants below 4 ft tall.
Plants go straight from clone to flower in my setup, I've had great results this way and don't intend on changing it.
For cloning a use rootech gel (which seems to suck) and olivia's cloning solution in the water I give them (which is awesome).
Mother plants are in soil and get flora duo grow blend with a little bit of Calmg every 2-4 weeks (depending on when deficiencies start to show).
Flowering plants get flora duo flower blend which floralicious in the reservoir and Calmg, every 2-4wks they also get a foliar dose of Dark Energy. I have a few plants in large rockwool cubes, but most are in coco/hydroten 50/50 mix, planted in fabric pots.
So I'm just about out of nutrients and I'm looking to try something new. I have no interest in blowing $500 on some bullshit AN line, but I am willing to spend money on something that works. One of the main things I would like to switch up is my pH down solution. It doesn't seem to hold the pH for more than 12 hours. I realize pH naturally raises over time but it raises a full point (5.7-6.7+) or more every day. Which imo is unacceptable.
I'm picking up some new nutes later today so any advice is appreciated. Thanks guys!
