I have the foliar, gro, bloom, protect, and kln. In addition I have the humbolt county hydro carb supplement and a product called s.o.s., used to break down locked/excess salts to either leech out the excess or break it Down tonutrient for the plant. I use ebb and flow clay pebbles And was Hoping other people could tune me into how they would use these, or how they use the nutes they have, or what I could add.i have ppm and ph bluelab pens and use ph up and down from Gen hydro. I'm not looking for a replacement line of nutes, just rather how I could use them to get a successful grow with maximization, but not overkill. Thank you kindlyin advanced for any help!

I've used Dg grow and bloom for a couple of years with pretty good results. I've heard it both ways, as you will too. I found this feeding schedule on here one day, and it seems to be accurate with the nutes I've tried.
View attachment 2497069T-bomb2.jpg This is my THC Bomb @ 4 wks. --3 wks in veg (w/DG Grow) and 1 wk in flwr (w/Bloom)
Urcela 82612.jpgThis is last year's Northern Lights, about 3-4wks from harvest- 1 plant with her trunk and main branches tied down, running parallel to the ground. She was 8' long x 10' wide x 24-32" tall, and gave out just under 2lbs cured! DG Grow & Bloom. (How you like the camoflage? Guess it worked (lmao), I'm still here.
I know absolutely nothing about the SOS & the HC hydro Carb. Have you tried their website? Just guessing, the HydrCarb is a sugars/carbs/minerals supplement to use in the flowering cycle. They seem to love the extra sugars and carbs in the last few weeks of flower, and I've read that this boost can add up to 20% in size and density. I used horticultural grade backstrap molassis on my outdoor grows last year, and I'm sold. Don't know that it was 20% but it sure as hell didn't hurt!
NYCD2.jpg Thai stick on the left, NYC Diesel on the right, still about 4 wks out. By the time the Diesel finished, she was over 9' tall and gave up a couple lbs. of mean!
I just changed my res water this morning and rebooted with BioThrive nutes. A good friend and his brother swear it's beter, so I'll try it in the hydro this year where I can monitor and control the conditions. But I'll be using the DG for my outdoor, until this convinces me otherwise!

I have Pro-Tekt, Grow, and Bloom...

I fill my 5g buckets with 4g of water, and mix in 10ml of protekt. I let it sit for 5-10 min, then mix in grow for veg, or bloom for flower. The DG bloom doesn't have much N, so I throw 5ml of DG grow in there too during flower.

Then I add pondzyme and PH the water.

how do you like the pondzyme? have you used other enzyme products to compare?

I have used Aquashield and some local shit my hydro guy makes. The pondzyme is the cheapest, and works the best of the 3 I have tried... but it makes a few little mushy balls of barley that get stuck in the roots which I'm not too thrilled about; doesn't seem to matter or effect anythign though. I may be using too much... it calls for 1 scoop per 100g; All 8 buckets changed, I am doing about 1 scoop in 32 gallons. They give you a scoop with it so idk how big it is... probably 1 tbsp. I spray the roots down a little when I change buckets.

My water is crystal clear aside from bits of barley floating around... my roots are fucking pristine and exploding. I feel the pondzyme is a little better than aquashield. But the biggest thing is I can get a pound of pondzyme from petco for $15 and it works like a champ and treats 16,000g of water. If you are using something crazy expensive like great white or voodoo juice, I def recommend you give pond-zyme a shot next res change.

I just googled and noticed there is a version of Pond-Zyme with no barley... I'll probably get that instead, because the barley mush is my only (minor) complaint about the product. I'm guessing the barley is included for fish to eat.

For a 15g res, drain to waste, as a base:

35mL Pro-Tekt
35mL DG Foliage-Pro
35mL Botanicare Liquid Kharma
70mL Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Bloom

Add 2.5 to 5 mL/gallon of DG Mag-Pro and/or Botanicare Hydroplex for flowering plants
