I usually use dyna gro, however my local store was out of the bloom formula. I was told to try the botanicare CNS17 bloom so i said screw and bought it. I took it back and i was surprised to find it was a milky creamish color and left a white residue on the bottom of my res. Is this normal?? Either way i will be switching back to my more preferred Dyna Gro ASAP. All help is appreciated. Thanks.

Yep it is normal. The stuff works great. I have been using it for my current grow.
Good to know its normal. I was told that this stuff is good cause it wont cause a lot of salt build up. Which is good, but its expensive. Takes half a Qt just to get my 27 gal res to 1200 ppm.
Also i don't know about the nute ratios. 2-2-5 doesn't really seem like a good bloom ratio. MY dyna gro Grow has 7-9-5 which has more p then the CNS Bloom. Is there really any need for CSN Bloom when using Dyna Gro Grow? Usually i would add in Dyna Gro Bloom 3-12-6 because it has that extra P.

you should be taking that cns17, putting the required amount in a container, some water, lid, and shake !
then add to rez.
i use & really like both brands mentioned.
agrree+ dynagrow IS NOT better but it is a good product with different chemistry (npk).
its more concentrated than CNS17 & lasts longer cause you use less.
still dynargo gets mad cacification shit on the bottom of the container.
comparing both, imma opt for the dynagrow bloom when i finish of these cns gallons.
dynagro bloom ...with botanicare calmag+ & hydroplex adds.
then add to rez.

Yea i can deal with a little calcification. Dyna gro grow bloom and protect is all that is needed imo and realistically i think you could do just fine with the dyna gro grow by it self
