I'm about 6 weeks into my first DWC with seven plants vegging. First couple of weeks, I used Fox Farm nutes and had wild pH swings (going up to 7.5 or so on a daily basis in my 5-gallon buckets). So, I researched the nutes out there and changed to Advanced Nutrients and am using the Sensi Grow pH Perfect.
This is only my second grow (first grow was several years back in soil), so I still consider myself a novice and can't tell too much from looking at the plants what deficiencies they might have. However I thought I had noticed a potential iron deficiency.
After this I checked the label on my pH Perfect Sensi Grow. The info is below (taken from AN's website). Compared to what they show for AN's regular (non-pH-Perfect) Sensi products, it appears the pH Perfect Products are missing iron and manganese. Many other micronutrients appear to be missing, too. Am I not looking at this properly?
I found some other related posts from forums online (someone claims they received info from High Times about this problem with iron being cut out of the pH formula), but no one else seems to be referencing this huge issue with AN's nutes. The Connoisseur pH perfect also is missing these same micros. Thinking of switching to Dyna-Gro Grow considering how many people claim that AN is a lot of BS and snake oil. Certainly there seem to be issues with AN dropping key ingredients from products in an attempt to reduce costs (I'm guessing), and lots of frustrated customers.
AN's website is a big turn-off, too. OMG have you ever read the info on their products? It's like a propaganda manifesto. Ridiculous.
