Advanced Nutrients?

In My Opinion Advanced Nutrients Is The Shit! Yeah It Can Get Expensive If You Try To Do The Whole Set Up Of Products They Have But If You Just Use The Basics You Will Get Superb Results As Well. I Am Using Their Sensi Bloom, Big Bud, And Overdrive Andi Noticed A Huge Difference In My Yields From General Hydroponics Products. I Tried Using Their Carbo Load But It Raises The Ph To Crazy Levels In Like Half A Day So I Stopped Using That And Im Not Seeing A Difference From The Harvest That I Used It On Compared To The Last Harvest Which I Didnt Use The Carbo Load At All. So I Think That If You Just Get The Necesseties You Will Have Great Harvests And Save Money Also. Regarding The Post About Posting Pics At 28 Days Of Flowering I Think Thats A Great Idea! When I Get Home I Will Post Some Pics Of My Last Crop At 28 Days To Let People See What I Got Going On!
YOU ALSO HAVE TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THAT SOME STRAINS PRODUCE MORE BUDS THAN OTHERS!

Ya it works great just $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ and I have a few 100 gallon resevoirs.... but if I use the powder version it's only like 120 grams a shot and I get 600gr or close to that for 35$ when I get the liquid it's 40$L and I need a 1 Litre per shot... that's all... I know it works great but the powder is the same for cheaper... That's all :mrgreen:

hey man, thx for the pics for the mental idea... first timer here and im using AN's sensi grow a & b ... i have the matching seni bloom and the big bud product. I donot have the overdrive although im really sold on spending my money on it... would you say that i would have a good enough grow with sensi and big bud alone?... Also, if you dont mind..

i havent been able to post pics on the web page to show progress.. but i have 4 ladies left inside in a bubbler system... i use a tri-meter so i am able to get the ph at 5.2 all the time... I am using RO water and i have them at closest to 800 ppm as possible.. My question.. if it is a question.. is ... Because of some friends telling me that "AN burns the plants" which is how i got my nutes.. hehehhe... i was thinking about giving the ladies 800 ppm through out the whole grow... and somewhere i heard that you dont want to use sensi with big bud.. that if you use sensi you want to use there bloom booster product instead... ?? any comments on those?.

what ppm lvls do you keep your ladies at?


thx in advanced for you response.

im growing hydro and i keep my ph at 5.6-5.8 and i usually start my ppm pretty low. i start it at about 350-400 for the first week then i slowly increase them till im at about 900-1000 by the 6th week. i have had some burns from the advanced nutes but that was cause i thought if i increased the amounts of the products to raise my ppm to where it said it should be on their nutrients calculator i would get a bigger yield but that wasnt the case. it actually increased my flowering time by 2 weeks since i had to recover my plants from the burn. my advice is to keep your ppm low at the start and gradually increase. you can always add more nutes if needed but you cant undo the effects of too many nutes at once. hope this helps!

thx... ok so your highest is 1000... good to know... they were recomending up to 1200 in some weeks towards the middle ... glad to know i was doing something right.. 800ppm is working so far.. no burn..

yeah i tried the 1200 in the middle and it totally burned my shit up but i was able to recover them so it wasnt a huge loss or anything. just remember its always easier to add nutrients than it is to take them out! good luck bro!

This is bud using Bloom From Advanced nutrients and Carboload with a tbs per galon of molasses. Nothing insane just Dank bud From 12 cfls that i really enjoyed smoking. now.... heres where it gets lil crazy, i vegged my plants using b-52, grow, micro, iguana juice Grow and carbo load i am now in flower day 30 and im using Bloom Carboload and molasses and heres what they look like.


Now lets compare these day 30 with my first buds day 31 without Advanced nutrients veg nutes.

I've used advanced nutrients...now I don't
they are for folks with more dollars than sense.
I won't say what I use (unless they want to send me a free crate.) but it's cheap reliable and cheap again.

I think Advanced nutrients is fairly cheap... Micro Grow Bloom all those 3 cost be about 60 WITH carboload. thats a good base right there man!! for 60$ you cant go wrong... But i added over drive, b-52 and iguana juice grow.

if you do it like that it's cheap.. I spent like $450 or so..


Im not going to be using them when Im done with this grow though I'll be switching over to something else(not telling either though)....

Keep it basic, Veg and Bloom nutes, sugar for the plant, and flower enhancer. pretty much all.:blsmoke:
