Advanced Nutrients Advice For Hydro

I am making the switch to Advanced Nutrients..

I run an aero for veg and ebb & flow for bloom..

My question is, what micro nutrients would you reccomend??

I currently have

Grow A & B
Bloom A $ B
Sensizyme

Also I understand I cannot use HyOx while using micro's (it would kill the micro) -what about the enzyme's??

It appears Pirranah and Turrantula is made for soil, is this correct??

Voodoo looks to be made for Hydro???

Any help in these matters would be great, thanks very much....

What micro's would you reccomend and do you use H2o2?

I use piranha, tarantula and voodoo juice in hydro.....ebb & flow. The piranha and tarantula leave some residue but they WORK. You can reduce this residue by making a "tea bag" to hold the microbes (taranula/piranha) that will keep your res more clean.
If you use voodoo juice, you need to also use carbo load...it give the microbes food and will GREATLY increase their productivity. I suggest carbo load regardless, as it will enhance your bud production, particularly enhancing resin and swelling.
I also recommend big bud and overdrive during flowering. They absolutely rock. Really pack on the weight and crystals.
Do not use H2O2 with microbes and enzymes, as it will kill the pathogens. Basically H2O2 creates a sterile root zone, and the enzyme/microbe creates a beneficial bacterial and fungal root zone. Both are excellent (though I prefer the microbal activity....bigger root mass) ways to enhance your roots, and therefore your plants overall size and health.
Personally....I run AN 3 part (micro, grow, bloom) with humic acid, fulvic acid, barricade (potassium silica), super tea grow & bloom, carbo load, sweet leaf, sensizyme, tarantula, piranha, voodoo juice, bud blood, big bud, and overdrive. I started with just 3 part and big bud, and I see a greater yield each time I include an additive. Right now I am using their full line less scorpion juice. Pricey, but wth.
Any time you need anything, pm or write. I read ALOT about AN and have used alot of their products.
Oh yeah.....and when you add AN nutes....do it in this order:
SensiZym
B-52
Silica
Fulvic acid
Humic acid
Piranha
Tarantula
Voodoo
Good luck and happy growing!

No avd nutes can be used in hydro bra. I got just about all avd nutes and they work real good. H2o2 is no good when using dese products you would just be wasting your good money on the beneficial fungi and microbes products you just brought. Oh n all base nutes by avd have micronutrients.
I use sensi ab
voodoo
tarantula
piranha
big bid
bud blood
overdrive
carboload (works great as dude said)
barricade
and many other but dont feel like typing.

You dont have to get em it's just an suggestion.

Yes you will love them...me and platy both use all their stuff...I may have a couple more..hehe But he uses the 3 part and I use the 2 part sensi, and we are both big fans of AN. One thing to remember to if you haven't heard yet is when using their feed chart cut all the dosage in half(def. if using tap water...not sure about RO...I think platyman uses RO). I was really pissed when I first found out the feed chart was so off...but now I dig it because you don't have to use half as many nutes. This makes AN much more wallet friendly.

"wallet friendly" good choice in words, i just spent $300.00 and probably have another 200 or so to go to have a full line of the stuff everyone just reccomended..

I saw a special on AN and their stuff was the only nutes mfg specifically for cannabis cultivation... so i thought if the best is using it and getn great results, i better hop on board!!!

WOW--- alot to learn tho... just when ya think ya have it figured out lol

thanks again everyone!!!

Yeah the learning never stops...but thats part of the fun for me. I get all my stuff aat one time(usually from discountan) That way I get enough FREE pirhana, big bud, carbo, and bud blood so that I don't even have to buy it. AND my favorite...he sent me an Advanced Nutrients T-shirt!!freakin awesome. Hit one of us up when you have any questions...oh and don't get upset when you get hated on for using AN...it'll undoubtedly happen....I get my hydro dead even with my soil grows by using it(another thing to get hated for...and you may not get the same results...but either way its good stuff)

Honestly, i'm excited to make this change, been using BC products for awhile now & Botanicaire (all good stuff), but i know a few very good growers that swear by AN and so i thought i would give the next few grows a shot at it (me too)...

i got some very good strains that are gonna have their first taste on Sunday.. WW, Big Bud, Bubble Gum, Mazar and NL.....

Just got my new RO system in today so i don't have to run to the store weekly anymore and plenty of calmag on hand ;)

I also recieved my last bean order in (More WW, THC BOMB & Mazar freebies), those will just go in a safe spot for now tho...

I will definately hit you guys up when i will undoubtably have questions...

Thanks again

As Shenagen said....I use RO water (buy it at walmart......33 cents a gallon, had a machine, but like I break everything, I broke it too...sucks to be a klutz)....and I swear by it. My tap water SUCKS...ppm 545......LOTS of calcium and I had mag deficiencies when I used it......distilled was hard for me to balance my phj...alot of spikes and drops......ro I can stabiluize in an afternoon and hold pH for 7 days. If your tap is crap, fuck distilled and go RO.

Aw...that sucks about breaking your RO...I know they aren't that cheap. But yeah its the only way if your tap comes out that high. I can never get my meters to read distilled water very well....ph or ppm. My taps at 130 though so I'm ok
