Funny argument. Why would one expect ml to ml that AN Conn would equal dyna-gro? @homebrewer your big mistake in your head to head test was you set your standard that so much ml/gal nutrient should equal so much PPM. In doing so, you severey depleted the Conn plants.
I run my AK47 at 800-850 ppm or about 1.2 EC. That’s what they liked with DynaGro so that’s how much Connoisseur they’re getting.
800 ppm in a moderate feed program is pitifully weak for conn. The fact is there is more in the conn than pure N-P-K-CA-Mg salts. There are fulvics and humics and Amino's and other shit that registers on the ppm meter (hint:Acids). Any electrolyte will do this. Clearex for instance has a ec of .1 with 5ml added to a gallon of water and it's just sugar!! So why would you expect the PPM's to match with Connie?
When you compare concentration levels between nutrients, it's on the bottle: N-P-K. This number represents BY VOLUME the concentration level, period. PPM is irrelevant.
Connie, A&B combined is 5-4-10-2.9-.7, Dyna Bloom is 3-12-6-2-.5. Connie is slightly more concentrated, except for P (when A & B are used together of course) But this is with 2 parts for Connie to 1 part for Dyna-gro so it comes down to cost, how much is the combined A&B Connie cost (2 gallons) compared to 1 gallon of Dyna.
NEHydro.com quotes: 1 Gallon
Dyna-gro Bloom : $48,
4l connie x 2 = $138 . $88 dollar difference. Hardly equal. So Connie must either provide 1/4 ounce higher yields in a gallons worth of grow or taste better to be worth that much more. See how trivial this whole argument is ? 1/4 oz in say 7 homebrew grows? @Sccoby : Where do you get Connie for $105 ?
IMO Connie is way overpriced. A better comparison would be with Sensi A&B. 72$ for the pair. You got to keep in mind though that Sensi too has more than pure chemicals in it.
@homebrewer your statement that Advanced is for noobies: Absolutely, and dumb ones (or ones that just want a feed and go) . I exemplified that in my journal by slamming my plants in coco with 16ml/gal twice a day at 2.7EC !! Idiot proof!!
Some people don't want to learn about hydro and such,
they just want something to get through with no problems and that is what AN provides. You will pay for it, just like any other product that provides this level of convenience. I get pissed at them because as quoted in my grow journal :
AN in my opinion takes advantage of the uninformed by pushing these bundles. The base is a fine product but because of all the marketing to buy these bundles, some of which are a waste depending on your type of grow, I feel they do not have compassion for the little guy just trying to get medicated. Additionally, I have to date 3 bottles of nutrients that precipitated into some solid salts or whatever, tells me quality control and consistency is an issue. Most of their products now call for 2ml/l , purely so you will waste nutrients. For those reasons, I am contemplating discontinuing this product and submitting for a full refund. It's the principle of the thing. They should at least provide realistic feed schedules for the type of medium you use.
Other then that, why is everyone so Butt hurt with AN ?
Bottom line there is a place for Dyna and a place for AN.

I get to gasp for air through a hole in my neck and only wish I could say Not Me. I am fairly sure mine is from breathing fumes from heavy metals that burnt my throat. When people ask if cigarette smoke bothers me I can still reply Not me.
Of course you can always believe this is just a pathetic rant and say Not me
