GH-Floral Nectar Sweetener - thoughts, reviews, issues? I think it might be causing issues

[bongboy8200]

What's up guys. I'm playing with a bunch of nutrients to see if there is actually any differences. Here's the line up of nutes I think the Nector might be the issues

SAG GFF - I've been using way way way too
GH - amor si, cal mag, micro, grow, bloom, kool bloom, floral nectar sweetener, floralicous plus (started with just trio to compare and this is the order I put them in depending on which stage) currently my auto in flower. I was running it at 70% max dose. I believe i was over feeding K and locked out N, Ca, Mg. I upped it to using 80% and I cut bloom to 50% to cut the
Advance Nute- big bud and bud candy

Everything was fine until the Nectar. I feel like root rot is about to start and thats with a ton of SAG. Im going to split the amount of bud candy and nectar since they are doing the same thing but have different components.

So far I'm not loving the nectar. The molasses makes everything so damn sticky and I'm pretty neat with my stuff.
Any one have experience? And with dosing, supplements like this in general aren't on their feed charts. Do you just go back the back of the bottle, which I thought was always too strong?

Bump anyone?

Youre mixing way too much stuff together, and your extra additives are redundant. If you want to compare nutrients, run a full grow of the same clone with each nutrient line. Your extra stuff isn’t on the feed charts because it’s unnecessary. It sounds like you’re using: GH line plus additives and advanced nutrient and nectar of the gods additives in conjunction with it? You don’t need multiple bloom boosters and multiple sweeteners. What is your measured ppm of your mixed-up plant water?

Yeah I thought it would be a sort of science experiment. Floral nector and bud candy are essential doing the same thing but with different sugars so I figured use half ratios of each to get a little of everything. I’m using the full 10 part GH line up adding their floral nectar. Then advance nuts big bud and bud candy. I was comparing just using my Botinacare grow. Then bloom and adding calmag when needed. I wanted to see if this would be different. Try to bring out the natural flavor of the strain. Definitely a pain in the ass. I think I’ve been under feeding. I use the least aggressive Gh feed chart and was cutting that back 30%. H20 pre mix is 110ppm. Never had issues with the tap water. Thanks for replying man!

Best of luck, but I’d consider simplifying and adding things back one at a time. Years ago, I went a similar route based on the recs of my local hydro shop (botanicare main line plus a bunch of advanced nutrient additives) and it was a shitshow of chasing deficiencies and buying new bottles every other week to fix something. My weed was not very good. They took a ton of my money until I stopped buying stuff and started researching. I’d hate to see someone else have to deal with that frustration too.

Thanks man!!! Oh I had a feeling this is what I’m I was in for. Right now the bud is looking great. And I wasn’t having issues until the floral nectar. My hydro shop closed down once things went legal. They are the ones that told me don’t buy into any of the BS use Botinacare it’s one thing for grow. One thing for bloom. And Botinacare and GH are owned by the same company. Aside from now chasing pH. Even having a system, with all different plants on different schedules it is the biggest pain in the ass. I has to experiment with myself. And have all the crap so don’t want to just dump it down the drain. Next run I might switch to just using advance nutes sensi grow and bloom. I know half the stuff is snake water. I went buying i think it’s AN factor X reading all these great things. It was i think $60 for a bottle and it’s straight Mg. No different than throwing some Epson salt in.

Some update pics of the grow. The 2 small photos vegging are only getting
GH- amor si, calmag, trio, floralicous plus, floral nectar, southern ag bennies

I was definitely over feeding on the bennies but that Should just cause a slim. Roots are stained from the floralicous and micro but doesn’t seem like root rot and when I upped the EC yesterday they blew up with in hours.
started at 765ppm 6.94 pH 3.5ml down, 5.95 pH jumped to 6.4 12 hours later. Ppm slightly dropped. Keeping a better eye on it now daily.

No issues with EC or pH swings before the Nectar. I would hate to toss the bottle out... It says to use it during veg and flower.

side note you can see the gap between buds in the one pic of the plant in 8 weeks of flower. What cases the spacing like that and.Not a giant nug. Like the ones to the left that are huge colas.
