Advanced Nutrients

i just bought and started using advanced nutrients carboload, overdrive, and bud candy to go along with my FF Flowering nutes i was jw if anyone has had good results with these or any advice +REP

nothing???

I also wondered bout these nutes?Anybody?I want to know if you have to use the whole range or just the grow n bloom and maybe a booster.

I've never used the three you mentioned but I do use Nirvana to compliment the AN 3 part system. However, now that I'm moving to hydro I'm thinking of moving to some other products instead of the Nirvana. With all the organic ingridents I'm affraid its going to make mess of my res quicker.

I really liked the Nirvana in Soil though.

advanced is a good company, their shit is way exspensive and good.. you bought supliments for your fox farm basic nutrient regimen.. if used at appropriate times and in the correct doses your going to see better results.. which im sure you had guessed already. considering you have them. hope this helped.. +reps peace :bongsmily:

am i going to be able to tell the difference between this harvest when i used the advance nutrients additives opposed to last harvest when i just used FF nutes

i use the carboloader but i think that molasses does the same thing.. i use the big bud and then overdrive for the last 2 weeks before flush but i've never seen any major growth from it..now the bud candy will give it a taste and smell you can tell the difference.in the jar its not bad but if i let the bud sit in a bag for a minute its smells very strong..use the bud candy from week 2-6 i use bud blood for week 1 it works well..

Molasses is crappy, IMHO, but I'm going to stay off that soapbox today.

Yup, I've used the Advanced Nutrients lineup you're talking about. And while I've never used FF with it before, you probably could do that without any problem.

I just figure that companies make things to work together, so it's better to use all of one brand than to use other products that might overlap or counteract each other.

But, hey, that's just me.

I really dig the Advanced Nutrients lineup - worth every penny. And since you don't have to use as much as the other nutes, I think it actually works out to be cheaper or maybe the same price as other brands of nutes.

I haven't actually calculated it, but that seems to work for me. Some of my bottles of AN seem to last forever.

If you want to see what others are saying about different nutes, this site is pretty good:

Oh YA these are only 12 days into flower

I just finished using budcandy on a strain that always comes out smelling musty. I just chopped it other day but i can already tell a difference in smell. Ill know in a few days for sure

Can somebody tell me what I would need to buy to get started with Advanced,would grow,bloom and a booster do or do you have to buy the lot

you will be fine with just the grow bloom and booster. the rest of the products are to use to boost the plants in certain stages or to repair them when they get damaged. but im sure the ads say otherwise.
