Don't get confused between nutrients and beneficial additives. Nutrients- N, P, K, Ca, S, Fe, and so on ARE all the same.
Additives like humics, kelp, enzymes and PGRs are clearly helpful, while remaining not strictly necessary.
The advantage to the use of dry nutrient salts is in knowing exactly what you're using. If you want to use additives that's fine- but now you know and can add them with intention.
The money you'll save with dry salts will allow you to get plenty of additives and still come out ahead.
Um, Eee, Aaahhh.
Well, As to your first line.....The
source of the element can be
real important! I like to avoid Urea forms of N, and Tend to like the Carbonate forms of Ca better. Then you have K......Oh boy, I like the K sulfate type,
way better then any other form of K!
Sorry ttystkk. I know what your pointing out...I kinda took it a step deeper.
But, your abso-fucking-lutely correct!
Now to move on.
It's been found that phosphoric acid use has a cumulative negative effect on the roots of plants....pH positive is way to be lazy. Shit, you can't test and adjust once a day?
Bar none, simplest grow style to get the best results. I learned this whilst spending time here! Old dogs do learn new tricks!
Grow in a tupor mix.
Dyna gro - Foliage Pro
OR even better
Jack's citrus for all the way through nutrients
Supplement K sulfate
Grow to the
proper point and then harvest
Dry and cure properly!
Some of us really like playing with complex problems and and have learned to grow Organically by building our own water only (for the most part) soils. They cover differing strain growing traits and we never bother to pH anything - ever!
