GH Flora trio FTW. Been around longer than you probably, lol. It dilutes easily, is less likely to clog drip lines than other nutrient lines, cheap & easy to get. Some of the best weed you've ever had, was probably grown by someone using GH 3-part

I’m looking forward to seeing the feed schedule and how this works.

It's Finally HERE! Jack’s Part A 0-12-26 is a new water-soluble nutrient blend formulated to maximize the delivery of important macro and secondary nutrients at the end of the growing cycle. As expected with all Jack’s Part A formula’s - what you will see is the benefits of consistency in the micronutrient concentrations across the crop. With high potassium, phosphorus and sulfur present in a very soluble and available combination, this formula is different than the macro nutrient profile you typically see with your standard Part A 5-12-26. This difference helps to bring out the most desired characteristics of the cannabis plant as it goes to harvest. #jacksnutrients #jacks321 #newformula

What are the best nutrients for hydroponics please
Jack’s , very simple. Get a cheap ec meter, start the seeding in clonex solution once they are big enough about 1-2 week use jack’s. 200 ppm to start slowly increase. The trick with hydro is measuring the ec on a daily schedule and see how much is absorbed when it’s significant or you see your plants stop growing, increase the dosage. Make sure the solution temp stays around 70-75 degrees.

everyone can hate but me and my brother tried fox farms and we tried general hydro without a doubt in my mind i can honestly say that advanced nutrients is better for growing weed in hydroponics.
everyone saying that im wrong why dont you tell us your favorite nutrients for growing in hydro? because thats what the guy is asking. his question is "What are the best nutrients for hydroponics please" so boys whats your favorite fertilizer brand for hydro? mine is advanced nutrients with ph perfect tech.
I would say you guys’ sample pool of brands is definitely heavy on the shallow end. Fox farms, general hydro and advanced nutrients are the big box big brand staples of any garden center/hardware homeowner type store, on every hydro stores shelves at all times. You gotta mine for the gold, and what I’m finding out is in keeping with what some of our peers above have said, the value is in the price really, the result is in the competence and attention to detail of the grower. Feeding times, environmental controls, light cycles. It’s not as simple as 12/12 and water when dry, to get to next level bud there are thousands of little variables that will change everything.
I’ve had excellent bud with floraflex, GH, house and garden, fox farm, jacks, roots organics, and just old school organic dry amendment gardening, even used AN once, got pythium 4 weeks in and lost them though so I didn’t see how the bud was, I’m sure it would have been great though, as I’m a stickler for the little things, and I can’t leave things alone lol

For my 300w i use masterblend but you need to give it more magnesium than it says in the recepie later in flower.when i had 60w i just followed the recepie. Price is not that big its a powder nutrient soo no expiration day.only thing you would need a jewlers scale to weigh it.

So what formula do you coco growers use with GH Flora series? They have several...some call for "grow" in flower, some not. All kinds of different ratios/ feedcharts.

It's confusing to say the least!

I started off using an older feedchart, now I am using a newer one, and having some issues.

And the PPM's / EC is never as high as they say it will / should be when mixed exactly like they recommend.

My opinion, use the GH Flora chart and follow the "medium" feed. By late flower maybe only add boyt 1ml/gal of the Grow, but my advice is don't cut it out completely i.e. the Lucas Formula, dunno who Lucas is but I doubt he ever worked for General Hydroponics, lol. Sure the Lucas Formula "works" without any Grow, but if you check the N P K values you'll still be missing some useful stuff come flower.

I switched to GH Flora Nova series. The Grow and Bloom are "chunky" so this is best for top watering & might clog drip emitters. The Nova series, to me, had the nicest NPK numbers overall, it's two less bottles to use, and I've really loved the results so far.
