Advanced Nutrients - Big Buds - Coco Coir Formula in DWC?

Hello,

Curious if I am able to use AN - Big Buds Coco Coir Formula in a DWC Setup?

My hydro Bloom A and Bloom B by B.A.C. Nutrients is NPK 15-3-7 and P seems a little low? AN Big Buds is 0-4-4.

Thanks

How big is your res? Anyway... I don't see much of a problem using it, you BAC base is -3-7 and its meant for a base that has -4-8, so there is not much difference there. Anyhow when I am doing DWC, and I am using something like a AN Sensi base, then I would add AN Big Bud or Big Bud Coco if that's is all I can get nearby at a rate of 1/4 oz or 8ml per gallon for flowering weeks 3 - 5! And yeah I am pretty sure AN says to use it during weeks 2 - 4, but I have found it works better when used during weeks 3 - 5! Also my 8ml per gallon is a high dosage, so for your first week do 4ml per gallon and see how your plant(s) react, and if they don't freak out, then kick it up to 8ml on week two of the three weeks you should only use it for!

I am using a waterfarm I fill it to 2.5 gallon. I believe the BAC Range expect you to use a bloom booster according to the charts. I was just expecting the P and K to be a tad higher. I find using when the actual flowers appear and the stretch stops as thats when the plant is focusing on bud production. So yeh I also agree with you, weeks 2 to 4 seems a little out! Anyways I am going to add to bump up the base a bit.

Appreciate your help :D
