Whats up everybody! I was wondering if some of you can could share the top 3 base nutrients you have tried and like the top 5 supplements you have all tried? I'm curious as to what is working great for you all!. What you have found work awesome, best bloom boosters, best root inoculations, best synthetic line/organic line. Every day I have people coming in trying to perform the best at their passionate hobbies as they can, and i'm trying to make sure many of them are growing the best medicine they can for themselves.. I have a few customers with cancer, a few customers in wheelchairs, and a few customers trying to make a living for themselves. I would truly appreciate this information.

What you guys tell me is what i'm going to use myself and try to sell to people. We don't carry advanced nutrients or a few very obscure nutrient brands, but i'd love to hear about some of your experience with different nutrient lines. Synethetic or orgaic, I honestly wanna know what has been working for you. I will translate that information into helping other make the best meds they can for themselves in an illegal state. Because I understand they need it and I understand it makes them happy to preform their hobby/production to the best of their ability.

Thank you all in advance.

ROLS with teas, although I'm gonna change a few things and dive even further into the organic world.

Them bennies yo (: The flavor and quality is where its at, but its not ideal for 100% of people because I deal with a lot of new growers on a daily basis. I deal with a few peopel who know more than me, and many many people who know less than me on a daily basis. Its literally my goal to help them all the best I can. I haven done a single up sell, i literally only care about these people do the best they can with what they can afford. Their budgets range form minimal to extreme. I generally try to help the people with the lower budgets because they are the ones who need the info more than anybody. a $200 light setup can be a huge investment for some of my customers for example. And these are 55-60 year old dudes who seriously need these meds. Meanwhile I just bought a $750+ light setup. (Simply conveying the budget difference between myself and people 2 1/2x older than me)

Specific products you have been impressed with helps a lot, if my store doesn't carry them i may bring them up to my manager to get them in the store and who knows how many people may end up growing with your suggestions!

Right now I've been using just the Hesi line for coir no salt buildup one nute base all
the way thru with PK boost and Power Clean (enzymes) they might not be "super" nutes
but they are very forgiving and I get respectable yields.
For benes I use MycoStim.

:peace:

It's pretty simple though. If you wanna dumb it way down grab a bag of organic dry fert and some organic medium and walah organic :)

This would depend on your selected grow method , DWC , soil , organic , soil-less , etc.
Also , there are DIFFERENT MEDIUMS that growers prefer also besides nute lines.

There 2 part / 3 part systems that are easy to use ( Dyna Gro , Sensi , etc. )
The NPK ratio of the nute lines will also vary brand to brand. I've grown initial stages
at 5-5-5 , 1-1-1 and 1-3-2 (preferred ) but all growers have different choices so rating them will be a little tough.

Define what setup you would use primarily for growing , that would help narrow down some choices. You do NOT have to buy in into Multi bottle nutes to get good yields.
I have used Boosters , Bud Blood , bone meal but now keep things simple. Using the best genetics will get the best meds. What strains are you looking to use for meds ? This another important factor.

Check out Homebrewer link for a comparison grow : DynaGro vs. Advanced Nutrients.

I'm quite familiar with all hydroponic and soil nutrient lines, and what their strenghts and weaknesses in both settings, Just wondering what you have personally had success with. People are gonna grow the genetics they have, and i understand genetics plays a massive role. Just wondering what specific nute lines/supplements have impressed you

I do really appreciate their feeding schedule though, although we don't carry that line. While I understand their is no "perfect" PH level, they give very specific PH levels their feeding which is an easy concept to convey to many growers

What works best is a good base nute with zero supplements. The theory being.. All base notes should have everything in them for proper plant growth. Technaflora, GH and dyna series work well. Any supplements other than sulfur and silica are a waste imo. But as always, that's my opinion.. But I grow dank shit usually better than those that use those supplements :)

From what I understand there is about 17 +/- 1 or 2 elements that are critical to plant growth. On top of that there are many many supplements people use. Some supplements are purely the product of marketing genius, but some I have read nothing but rave reviews about. Base nutrients generally cover what your plant "needs;" But some suppliments cover other things your plants might "want/" I think a lot of supplements are a waste of money, but I think some arent.

Thoughts?

Supplements like silica, I think are a great thing. Also, aminos, imo, are great, from my personal experience, but aminos aren't necessarily going to make a better smoking product or yield any greater. They just seem to help the plant in a small way to grow a bit more healthy, but I'm not sure if it's worth the extra money as I haven't found any extraordinary results. I suppose the only supplements I'd recommend are silica and Epsom salts. Honestly, these supplements are great. If you want to experiment, aminos would be a suggestion, but it's not something I can say works or doesn't. I did see overall health benefit (I think) but no yield increase or anything

Stay away from final week sweeteners and pk boosts.

I use a brand called Bio Nova, pretty much the only nute I have ever bought. It's their Supersoil mix. Fairly low organic nute as expected but a good one imo. I also make teas and amend my own soil. Bui for brands I would say it's well priced and does a great job. It's Dutch though so not sure if it's made it's way outside of NL.....

What are your opinons on epsom salts vs some calmag or something like that? I agree on the silica, probably one of the suppliments i've seen some of the fastest/ strongest results with. Stalks as hard as a 15 year old seeing titties for the first time imo.

Thanks for the info on aminos, if you could elaborate on your experience with them though I would appreciate it!

What soil do you use and what do you amend it with might I ask?

A combo of a Dutch producer (mainly perlite and coco), my own compost, and organic soil from my garden centre. I then re-use my soil and add a composters (enzyms) then I add dried connifer nutrients and a lawn treatment (which is basically calcium, magnesium and a few other things). All bought from a general garden centre.
