Well those where just the nutrients I had on hand I had from some gardening a couple months ago so I decided to use them for it because I had them..... But what have you heard of overdrive nutrients for flower and bud candy? Also I'm going to try and buy a 600 watt hps grow light for my next grow
For all around performance a 600 watt hps is the best light system & what i use in my tables.
As for the nutes you mentioned i have the same low opinion of them as well,not because they are bad nutes but the manufacturer is ripping customers off , even moderately priced nutes like General Hydroponics are 20 times more expensive than they are worth , think of it like this , has anybody ever heard of a food farmer using GH nutes or other $20 a quart brands ? All fertilizers sold as mj specific nutrients are priced way too high & offer no better performance than off brand nutes.
I used to own 50% of a mj dispensary & we got all kinds of free samples from all the manufacturers & i tried them all over about a 2 year period & never had any WOW ! results with any brand.
One year i bought all my nutes from a farm supply store that sells liquid nutes in 5 gallon pails & had fantastic results & paid less than $100 for a years worth of nutes , for my grow thats dirt cheap , we've since moved & its not worth the 2 hour drive so i went back to using General Hydroponics Flora micro & Flora bloom which are the cheapest liquid nutes in most shops unless you can find dyna gro.
Thats why i mentioned doing some research on npk & micro nutes,that way when you read ingredients & percentages you'll know exactly how your plants will respond.
Fertilizer companys like advanced nutrients have taken & broken down fertilizers into as many seperate elements as possible in order for us to have a need to buy 10 different bottles in order to give our plants a good npk as well as all the micro nutes needed .
