Dyna gro grow and bloom is cheap and a complete nutrient. Just fallow the instructions on the bottle

I use Jack's too.. 20 10 20 works for me all through the grow. I also use a lot of alfalfa tea.. Plants love it..

Ive used ff tiger bloom. It worked fine. Id still recommend dynagro first. Its cheaper and only two parts for the whole season.
Theres a lot of good nutrient lines out there. Whatever one you choose just make sure you use it properly and remember that less is usually more when it comes to nutes

If this is bound to be personal smoke I would definetly go the organic route. Generally most people agree that organicly grown plants smoke much smoother and taste better than their non-organic counterparts. I personally used Subcools Supersoil mix and it really simplifies everything in the long run. I'd check that out if I were you, theres a whole thread with results and info on it too.
Is this a guerilla grow or at home?

Why not go with homebrew organic teas? (just curious, not trying to persuade you away from pre-mixed bottles o' stuff)

out in the wild just toss some guano and worm castings around it and then let it grow. water when the top half to 1 inch of soil is dry. Early mornings are best time to water. I love dyna gro, but I don't think I would use it outdoors.

If you use guano, be very careful as to what type you use - peruvian seabird guano can burn easily.. would also say liquid kelp & alfalfa meal as a bare minimum.. and if seedlings, would be very careful as to what's being used, without question.

i walked into the local hydro shop and got sold on some Canna substrate nutes and some worm castings along with plenty of pro-mix.
i also compost, you should do that if you can.

its all about feeding the micro-organisms attached to the roots imo.

I totally agree with you. They can burn if used to much. I prefer the Mexican guano myself. I don't use them anymore since I am inside and it makes a mess haha.

peruvian seabird guano is like lighter fluid poured on your ladies if you're not extremely careful, other guanos are much more stable and a ton less likely to open up a can of whoopass on your plants - agreed with you on that. :D

Most of the nutes work just fine. you will need to learn how to use the nutrients. Each brand is different. Also how much you want to spend. Guanos and worm castings are cheap or brew some organics. synthetic is better for indoor IMO. Synthetic will mess up the organics in the ground if you sticking them in the ground.
