Advanced Nutrients?

im trying some advanced.n products on my current grow i particularly like there biological products like tarantula and piranha i think these products would be of particular use in soil. i also use foxfarms good but cheaper i would use more a.n. products if i could afford they appear to have solid products. im pretty good at spotting snake oil i use to deal with all the reps trying to sell various products at my aquarium job. there are always 3 or 4 good companies and the rest follow and copy. i think foxfarm and advanced are the best for cannabis. so currently my grow is a mix of chemical and organics from those 2 companies

Im new to this site but have been growing for 12 years. I have used a lot of different nutrients and advanced nutrients is the only one made for growing marijuana. GH is ok at best - Fox Farms is ok at best - Pure Blend and Pro are good - before AN i used Earth juice and B'cuzz with high quality results. I have been using the AN connoisseur and it is the best nutrient i have used. The smell taste high are top notch. I see a lot of people complaining about money on here, whats a few extra dollars for better quality bud? Everyone knows there is plenty of cheap nutrients and if that is what you like then more power to ya. For me I like AN and that is what i will use. so good growing out there and good luck to all

like ditch said it is one of the few companies that test on cannabis. this gives it a big leg up on the competition. there are a lot of snake oil companies and copy cats as there are in all industries but generally you get what you pay for

Also dont forget like I said brfore in this thread. You can talk to them and be honest about what your growing and not have to ask about your indoor tomatos.

i particularly like tarantula and piranha. but want to try the connoseuer line (however its spelled) it looks like a good product.

I have been growing in both soil and hydro for the last 13 years. Which Is not a lot compared to some people. In my honest opinion their products work no better than anyone else's. I have used many of there products over the years without much distinct difference, compared to my usual
regime. Many growers seem to forget that cannabis is after all a weed!
If you have a green thumb then you can get the same results using your
everyday fertilizer. Also their products are extremely expensive for non-medical patients. True often you have to spend money to get good quality
results from your grow. But not in this case, to me their products are overrated and just too damned HYPED UP!

YouTube - Mad Men Part 2 this is their new connaseur nutrient mixed at 800 ppm with big bud at 0.2 gram per liter lol bitches

advanced nutrients connaseur part a and b is sensi plus 2 part system with all of their additives mixed in it except carbo load big bud recognize advanced nutrients test their shit on pot only hahahhahah 2 pounds a light is of dry nugs is their average i just herd a guy pull off 3 lol bc rocks

I think you should check this out guys, im not sure for the strain of each plant for thc levels so thc level may not count but th weight sure did stun me. i love advanced nutrients, and you dont need all that much of it to grow Great buds. YouTube - Nutrient Challenge Peace!

same strain same room same ppm temp everything pots u name it light soil except food

They didnt say what strain they were.

I've gotta laugh at those bullshit "side-by-side" comparisons that Big Mike pays guys to do and post on Youtube (and don't think for a second that isn't what's happening most of the time). Mike is NOT a stupid businessman. He understands his demographic target group and he understands how to suck them in by "talking their language" and telling them what they want to hear. As a fellow (legal) businessman, I have to admit I admire Mikes knowledge of his consumers. He is VERY sharp (albeit, a bit condescending. In his mind NO ONE ever grew good smoke before he came along!).

While each individuals results will vary (due to variences in strains, phenotypes, lighting, temps, water quality, growing medium, etc.), 2 of my most recent grows WERE side-by-side comparisons using the basic AN (2-part) and FF (no additives) line-ups. Clones from same mother, all grown in the same batch of soil and under the same lighting/temps/humidity/etc (ie. I attempted to make it as objective as possible without the benefit of an actual horticultural lab). The result both times? Absolutely ZERO measureable difference, and no detectable difference in taste/smell/high/bag appeal.

Based upon my own observations and experiences, AN makes very good nutes that will grow top-shelf smoke. However, I can grow weed just as good for a fraction of the cost using FF's products. Now this IS in soil! I know several growers who prefer FF for soil, but won't use anything but AN for hydro grows. I guess whatever works for YOU and your specific application.........

Personally, the absolute best results I have ever had on an indoor grow were when I run the entire FF line-up (including additives) per the published schedule, BUT --- I also use Liquid Big Bud and Cal-Mag on the "water only" days during weeks 2 through 5 of flowering. With my main strain (Dinafem PowerKush clones from a really exceptional pheno) this seems to work better than anything I've found yet (Not to say I won't find something better in the future!). As far as outdoor grows, I've had my best results using absolutely NO nutes. Hike to my spot, plant the little bitches, and come back in the Fall to harvest. Many outdoor grows are "found" because of too much traffic, especially in my area!


Anyway, not to bash AN --- they make really good nutes. But they are not really any better than several other, much less expensive lines of nutes out there. If AN works best for you, then by all means use them. I've just found that for my particular application Fox Farms products work as good or better. But your mileage may vary.......

marketing geniuses!!!...I've had better results with age old organics!!! straight up!!

i love Age Old Organics !!!
its cheap and works Great!

I challenge someone who uses Advanced Nutrients to do a side by side comparison with Jacks

Why is it that AN have changed their formulas like 3 times in the past 6 years??/ Why is it they cost nearly 5 times as much as the same thing you can get elsewhere? Why is it that AN wants you to buy 15 bottles of supplements to add to their main grow lines?

MONEY MONEY MONEY>>>>>> MONEY!

lol and their employees come on here as hidden users and bash other companies like scotts and peters, both of which produce the cleanest, purest, best priced nutrients you will ever find. These companies do tons of research that they just give away


fuck companies like Advanced Nutrients. anyone with common sense can see it's all about money. I feel sorry for the people that don't know any better :\

Dudes,

Everyone says AN is highly/overly priced. Then at the same time i hear it's totally super concentrated be careful or you'll burn your plants. So has anyone compare the price with respect to the amount of nute you have to use. For example I grow in 2 14Liter DWC's which I fill to 9L. According to the Adv Nute calculator I only need 36ml of my Sensi a+b, and 18ml of b-52 and of course VooDoo. So if I was using another nute would I use as lilttle? meaning the Adv nutrients would last longer?? And since we are not offending anyone like burning The Holy Qur'an, then why don't some of you anti AN folks kinda accept the fact that some of us "idiots" use AN...

I'm no AN advocate I just happened to buy this one while in the grow shop. And honestly it was because I saw so much An stuff I figured shit If I need anything at least I know where to get it!! So AN gets a 10 for getting their brand out there to the point that even new growers "trust" them from the beginning. Dude that's just capitalism at it's best, ask the kings of capitalism... The Chinese!!

the only time i looked at the back of my AN bottles for guidance was the first time i used them. i had to find my own concoction. so the way i measure mine is by a ppm meter and the ratio ive finally figrued out that works for me. i do a 3-1.5-1 ratio g/m/b until its up to 1000...at this stage that is. honestly man people knock it a lot cuz of the salts that are produced and its potency, but iv got it under control and im seeing fantastic results just from the g/m/b from AN. i WILL be switching before i even finish my first bottles tho. Earth Juice is callin my name. AN is fine until you have some sort of deficiency that ur initial A&B formula cant fix. Then the bottle you'll need is like 80 dollars. which is craziness! hope this helps.
