Personally, I have used many different nutes.
From MG powder and fluids, to peters all in ones, pretty much anything I could find when I needed nutes. Some disagree on this but THEY ALL WORK. If used correctly.
However I have found that GH Flora Series to be easy to use and work well.
You can follow there feeding regiment or customize it to for your own use.
You can also use them for the Lucas Formula. 8ml micro per gallon and 16ml Bloom per gallon. Easy and effective.
Oh and there cheap I have found the whole set for around $20 but usually see them from $25-30.
Point is. People spend so much money on nutrients. When they really do not need to. As long as you have to general nutes for what your plant needs. You do not need to spend hundreds on nutes. I have seen grows side by side using nutes that were expensive and nutes that cheap as hell. There wasn't much of a difference. If you can grow you can grow with anything.
GH is by far the best simply because they work well have everything your plants need and they are cheap.

Flora series is fine.. I've gotten close to 1gpw harvest with it.
I just like the maxi line.. its powder, More concentrated. I think its more accurate to get the NPK that you want on a container of unknown volume. I guess its a big deal for me since I like to batch up nutes 30-50 gallons at a time. I have a PPM level I want. I just ease it in there and i'm done.. no messing with measuring cups.
I guess when I started running a larger op, I had to make my solutions simpler..

Most anything at the hydro stote will do you ok as long as you do your part as there is no nute that will make You a better grower
that being said ive had good exp with
the good old gh 3 part in DWC
botanicare made extremely tasty buds grown in coco.
and had a good run with adv nutes
I would base it on what you want to do as some nutes play better in some setups than others.

Go cheap, advanced nutrients is a bunch of overpriced individual components that other nutrient lines contain in fewer bottles. Pick your choice from flora series, botanicare kind/pureblendpro, foxfarm hydro line, earth juice, dynagro, bcuzz. They will all work! Pick whichever bottle you like most because thats all that youre purchasing. Always remember to either follow the feeding schedule or tone back the feeding schedule a little bit. Never go over the advised feeding schedule unless there is an aggressive growth option

Generally I like to let my cotlyden yellow before I think of feeding (although I ran many were the cotlyden (ack spelling) was still healthy lol
You can give a very light mix but just remember you cant make the plant grow faster then the conditions will allow.
wgo to adv nutes website for feed charts
im not praising adv nutes but I did have good results I didnt care about price .
but I will say they arent the last nutes I'll ever try

I used to use it in my outdoor pots, but I have heard nothing but good things from friends that ran indooor flood-drain in coco also.
Cost doesn't always mean better. I would never spend $30 a quart on some nutes... I don't care what the label claims.

Okay, I have a really dumb, basic question.
Marijuana a weed, right? I mean it's not some delicate GMO invention that must be handled with precision or it dies, right? So what is the benefit of nutes? If it is grown in a good, GOOD soil, isn't that just as good? What do nutes add? I mean it is grown in South American jungles! My prize butternut squash do great with average good soil. What's so special about MJ and nutes?
