Okay so I bought a hyrdo system, its about 10 gallons. I was wondering if some one could point me in the right dirrection concerning the nutrients im going to need for my ladys. I read it needs N-P-K. But I need good brands and is that all the plant needs?
 
Check out advanced nutrients. To begin with you probably need to start with micro, grow, bloom until you get the hang of it.
 
I recommend General Hydroponics for beginners. It seems to do a good job and doesn't cost very much. There is also plenty of information available as its seems to be a common brand.

Goodluck

Okay so if i get General Hyponics MaxiGro And the MaxiBloom that would be all the things my plants will need? MaxiGro in the beginning and then MaxiBloom for the flowering cycle?
 
I'd recommend starting with General Hydroponics Grow, Micro, Bloom (liquid). I only use distilled or reverse osmosis water. Check the PH and EC / PPM daily using a real meter . I also recommend a pitch of Epson salt (like 1/4 teaspoon per gallon).

You should be able to find a feeding schedule on the Internet for whatever your trying to grow.
 
General Hydroponics seems to do a good job of balancing the PH on its own. I will have to check out Holland's Secret and report back my findings.

i would not recommend those methods because it can cause you problems in the long run. first off, they will have more of a significant impact upon your tds. secondly, they are not as stable us ph up & down. i use general hydroponics 3 part with their ph up and down and don't really have any problems with extreme flux or my ppms going way up.

invest in a decent digital ppm meter and ph meter, and your life will be a lot easier :blsmoke:
