Is using a entire product line overkill?

it is essential to use the gobblegubbles with bubblegum shitdrops and when you add that to your feed our blackmambapiss is the only way to provide with the correct ratio of micros and to balance the micros with the trace elements pick up a bottle of hippocum nirvana. you’ll thank me later.

The best grower I have ever seen or met, uses canna Coco A + b the whole way at 1 to 2 mil depending on what he thought the plant needed,
At week 1 of flower he added 1 ml of PK to help stop the stretch,, and week 5 he used PK again with the A + b, just to bump the flowers along a bit and that was it nothing else,,

Yeah Canna is best for the price and solid.

But better exists.

I'm UK and use Shogun range, both Coco and soil depends on the crop.
I only use grow-bloom/A/B and mag/PK
Shogun uses a wetting agent meaning less waste and better uptake.
I use Canna PK-Zyme leftovers from crop's.

I grow from seed in coco........I veg for 3-4 weeks.
I've been using just MaxiBloom for years with great success........my nute cost per grow is around $18.
Plants don't need all that expensive shit to grow good.

Strong stuff though. I've noticed a lot of 1 part use similar for pro crop's. Like a Scots for farmer's. 5-15-20 ISH.

I would buy the boost from a farmer market to same but €$£20-40 25kg bag.

Never heard of Shogun
Many years ago when I first started growing I tried all the crap, even did a side by side,,that was the end of me buying all those totally unnecessary lines there is for sale,, all I have in my cupboard is Coco A + b,,,,pk,,&. Calmag, I have found some strains may need the odd dash of calmag, but my 1 litre bottle is way out of date,it amazes me how many times you see a picture on here of a few leaves with a bit of yellow in them somewhere and the comments are calmag
But I will have a look at Shogun thx

Don't fall for the cannabis nutrient scam. You don't need these full lines and ridiculous feed charts that have you mixing all that crap. No other group of growers have fallen for this bullshit. If you grow orchids you use orchid food. If you grow roses you use rose food. If you raise vegetables you use a fertilizer for vegetables. Many plants are much more difficult to grow but they don't have some super special nutrient line to have great success.

But to answer your question NO you don't need all those products, Pro lines, etc... Many growers fall for that crap when they start out. The smart ones realize it's a waste of money and that you can grow better weed without all the crap in shiny bottles, cartoon labels, and stupid sounding names. It's like they're marketing candy to children.

Do for commercial use.
Go find a farm supplier you will find fertilizer for each stage.

You think farmers use 13 bottles of nutrients for growing? Or did I read your comment wrong?

Absolutely not.

Just spread 3 times.

The post above implies that you don't need to use cannabis based nutes because other flowers don't then lists flower specific based nutes stating you don't need XXX for XXX flower. But commercially they do use a full range grow, bloom boost
