+rep Pro Help Needed Please!!! Nutriments and Soil

[HerbalBeast]

Hey guys, I now have the opportunity to buy some nutes and items I wouldn't normally be able here. So here is what I'm thinking, I have a few options so please help me decide:

Advanced Hydroponics: Floranova Grow & Bloom

OR

BioBizz Bio-Grow + Top-Max + Fish-Mix

Instead of the flowering nutes mentioned above I can chose between:

Big Bud Bloom Booster (Liquid or Powder), Bud Blood Flower Booster, Kushie Kush or Overdrive.

From here, I have to chose soil. Options are:

Coco - Gold Label Special Mix
or - BioBizz Coco-Mix

Soil - Plagron Grow Mix

With those I can add Bat Guano, Vermiculite and/or Perlite.

Now, from all this, I would like you guys to tell me which one would be the best combination for a good grow. Also, I would like to have as little to do with PH as possible because I don't have a PH meter n'or anything to up or low PH.

Right now I'm growing with normal nutes I find at the store and I never had problems with yellowing, curling, drying, spots, bugs, dropping or anything like that, and I use tap water (tap water is very good here )

Thanks!!! +rep

Advanced Hydroponics: Floranova Grow & Bloom

Big Bud Bloom Booster

Overdrive to finish.

am I really fucked for using advanced nutes and no ph meter ? Also, how about the soil? Does coco work with this?

 

[stickybob]

you should watch your ph with and medium/feed. the wrong ph will affect what the elements plant can feed on. The nutes are safe for coco apparently, although never used the stuff on it before, i use hydroton

hey man...i use the flora series.....Mg soil!!! no meter??? go pickup a ph aquarium kit drops at a petstore that has fish! 5$ and works great for me so far!

coco has to have a lower ph than soil....soil @6.4-6.8 coco is soilless so ph @5.5-6.1

 

[lime73]

Gh is well balanced for soil/soiless and hydro too!!! its what i use...and you seen mine!!!

 

[HerbalBeast]

how often do you need to adjust your PH lime? Also I can't get MG, it's a source I have that only sells those things (plus a few more I found "irrelephant") So, dirt or coco with GH ? +rep lime and stickybob

 

[stickybob]

id go coco personally, just keep your ph level accurate every watering you will be more than happy with the results

Amazon.com is where I picked up my PH meter by hanna for $29.00, mine is almost 2 years old use it daily with a ebb and grow setup using hydroton.

 

[HerbalBeast]

that's me problem.. the ph, I don't want to worry about that, and my question still stands: Does using advanced nutes increase/decrease my PH levels drastically?

 

[stickybob]

no advanced nutrients are ph perfect, dont alter the ph water level at all

WHY YOU'LL NEVER HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT PH LEVELS AGAIN.

If you've ever experienced off-color leaves, slow growth or low yield with your plants... then you've probably noticed these problems coincide with mysterious pH and PPM fluctuations. It's one of the biggest obstacles to getting "pro level" yields from your plants.
In fact, many growers find that manually checking and adjusting pH levels two times per day, to try to keep their plants growth stable and maximized is tiring, time consuming and one of the biggest challenges of trying to get bigger yields.
However, these scientists discovered how to completely eliminate pH checking forever with their proprietary "pH Perfect" technology. In short, as long as your water falls between 4.5 and 8.5 pH (which is pretty much everyone's water)-this technology adjusts your pH for you and keeps it buffered there throughout your plants bloom cycle.
Which means you'll never have to manually adjust your pH... you'll never have to worry that your plants aren't in the premium growing environment... all you have to do is add the bloom base nutrient SENSIBLOOM and the "pH Perfect" technology takes care of all that for you! Just how well does this new technology work? That's what John from Humbolt County, California set out to discover...
