Anything with an even or high amount of nitrogen for the veg stage. Then something with not much nitrogen at all but high in potassium and phosphorous ( potash ) for flower stage. Usually you would use a 2 part nute for veg and a 2 part for flower. But you can get 1 part for v and 1 part for f .

It depends if you're growing with soil or hydro. If soil, anything at home depot or any garden shop.

If you're growing hydroponically, you'll need something meant for that.

Products meant for soil will lack calcium and get the majority of their nitrogen through urea. Calcium in soil should be provided through limestone mixed into the soil before you start growing. Good examples of this are miracle grow or Jack's classic.

Products meant for hydro will have calcium in the form of calcium nitrate, and get almost all the nitrogen in the form of nitrate instead of urea. Examples of this are GH flora 3 part, dyna-gro 1 part products, AN sensi, or Jack's hydroponics.

I first want you to check out any of my signature links as all these plants (minus the miracle grow) were grown with either Jack's Classic bloom booster (10-30-20) or their general nutrients (20-20-20) ($10 for a six month supply for either). Don't buy into the over-priced "weed specific" nutrients.....

Here's a link where you can type in your area code for your closest retailer (mostly nurseries).

Growing with these nutrients is so easy you will feel like your cheating. I feed daily (1/2 tspn per gal) with these nutes and get zero nute burn and zero nute lock-out.

your gonna want a nute like 10-10-10 for good vegetative growth, the number doesn't have to be that, its just that first number that's most important.. the first number in the 3 set number is nitrogen, the 2nd is phosphorous, and third is potassium (also known as N-P-K.. just look at the periodic table of chemicals) and vegetative growth is the beginning of the plants life where it focuses on growing leafs only, than youll have flowering where it focuses on bud production. for veg stage you want good nitrogen because that helps with foliage (leaf) development. such as a "10"-10-10 or a "5"-3-3 or something, the first 10 and the 5 (in quotes) being the percentage of nitrogen in the plant food (fertilizer) which youll want an even npk reading or more nitrogen dominated just specifically for that growth stage.. than once you want buds, youll put your plant into flowering stage (learn how with some research in lighting) and then youll want a nutrient that will be dominant in the "P" in NPK which is phosphorous because that's what the plant uses to make buds. so an ideal npk ratio for flowering stage would be something like 1-5-3 or possibly 0-10-5 or 2-5-5 with dominant P and usually want some good K in there maybe half the P or even to the P is a good ratio.. shop with this in mind (:

Check out Age Old. I've used it for years. ^^ and they do make fish and seaweed extracts that I use in combination with their bloom and grow.
