AN? Really? Advanced Nutrients.......run away,,,,run away.
They work, but they are a rip off.
Yes, they are, if you fall for their marketing and buy 100 diff products. I run the 3 part pH Perfect in veg, and sensi bloom in...well....bloom. I have been having great results so far, Have not ph'd my water a single time(I reccomend you check it to make sure the first few times). I also only run big bud, and overdrive(and bud ignitor, but I got it for free, wouldnt really reccomend spending the $100 on it). It doesnt work out to be insanely expensive, as long as you dont buy all their 100 different products. Some people hate it, and i dont really get why, the base isnt THAT expensive, big bud is a bit pricey, but it works really well. Overdrive is basically just pk 13/14, late bloom finisher, works great, little pricey(I paid about $45/Litre). Its all up to you in the end, I reccomend AN, some people hate it, some people love it.
Hahah what do u recommend?
If you want some cheaper alternatives, check out GH FloraNova series, the Flora series(AN Makes the Jungle Juice 3 part which is IDENTICAL, and cheaper), Dyna-gro if it's available(never used it but heard great things), And House and Garden(pretty damn expensive, but also works extremely well)
Edit: I've also heard excellent things about the Connie, was going to run it myself this time but it was on back order, and I needed bloom nutes so I grabbed a gallon of sensi bloom instead, which has been working excellently for me, not a single problem/defeciency. Runs a bit hot though so im doing 3/4 Strength.
