do you shake the bottle b4 you use it? How long have you used that bottle? how much is left? in what order do you mix the nutes? how do you mix with syringe or what? sorry so many questions but you didn't give alot of info it could be different things

nah questions are good
nope havn't shook the bottle at all
mixing it random i grab 1 bottle at a time and i use a measuring spoon
i put into water and then mix the water up and pour on plants
the 3 individually have never come into contact with each other and its only the micro that has sludge in it
its a soil grow the brouwn sludge looks like muddy snot and dosn't mix with water

The fact that you never shake the bottles would probably be my first guess. All the nutes stay at the bottom so when you work your way down you have a higher concentration of nutes. Hence the thick sludge. But this is all just speculation lets see if anyone else has any input 4 ya

Look at the side of the bottle it should say "Shake well to take full advantage of this product and put it to work for you" I really do think thats the problem....

is that sludge coming out of the bottle or the waste water it looks alot like bits of rockwool...where did you buy it from it looks like you may have gotten a bad batch and you should always shake everything vigorously before using ..also micro grow then bloom in that order... i use micro and it is always a beautiful purple color i would not use that shit you have ....if they dont take it back i would find a new store to purchase from

ive never seen micro or any other AN products look like that, do not feed that to your plants!
return that asap and get a new batch, that label is old so im guessing that batch is real old.

I think it sounds like you have a bad bottle of Grow-Micro-Bloom.

I haven't seen it sludge up the way that you have and it seems like you just have a bad bottle that needs to be returned and replaced.

I think no matter what brand of nutes you have, if it looks like sludge, time to get new ones. I've had to return a bottle of notes from AN once before, and they replaced them at my hydro store, no problem.

there's a guarnatee that AN provides, so take advantage of it....
