Water soluble powders in coco?

So, I decided to ditch bottled nutrients for the water soluble powders. I've done some searching and I found out that many people are having very good results with them, especially with something called MaxiBloom, using it from start to finish.

Problem is, here where I live I don't have access to this product, so I tried to find a substitute. I Found one called Kristalon, which is a horticultural water soluble powder
fertilizer for tomatoes and peppers. The problem is, MaxiBloom was designed to work with growing M, this one I'm not that sure...

Question is: does any water soluble powder work for M, or there has to be something more special about it? I am growing in coco, under a HLG QB.

This Kristalon thing has an NPK of 7.5-12-36 + 4.5MgO + 10SO3, calcium and all the essential microelements.

What do you guys think?

That should work fine. It has everything the plant needs. The cannabis specific nutrient racket is a scam. You don't need to spend $20 for a bottle of $1 worth of diluted salts.

Repeat after me:

Cannabis specific nutrients are a scam.

Thank you for your feedback!

Yes, I figured out that it is a scamm, that's why I'm switching. Also, one more thing, should I get 2 different such soluble nutrients with different NPK ratios for veg and flower? Or only one good flower NPK ratio will work?

I found a great spot to download FREE POT BOOKS . I downloaded a grow bible first and got lots more. Books look great and complete like the real ones I have here. No web site but just a page of links. Just right click on what you want and then "Save Link As" to download so they don't open first as many are 50+ megs. They got lots. Enjoy.

Jacks 321, Megacrop, Veg & Bloom are going to be the most commonly used water soluble salt nutrients. Lots of people on rollitup have a soft spot for Megacrop. I personally use Jacks.

If you're interested in Jacks, you can order a 4lb kit on Ebay for $24.95. Depending on the size and type of your grow, that should last you a few runs.
