I've seen a few videos about this and I was thinking about getting it since I'm going to do a small grow soon. it sounds perfect for what I need but I'm not sure about it and I was wondering if any of you have ever used the go box? Do the nutes work? And how well do they work?

I do not use GH. I am a FoxFarm guy, myself. However, GH products are top of the line. The GH box and the GO box are definitely a good place to start. I would go with the GO for soil, or the GH for hydro. You will end up running out of the grow, bloom, and micro before the others, so if you are ordering ,you may want to go ahead and buy and extra bottle of each. FOLLOW the DIRECTIONS on the BOTTLE!!!

everyones gonna have a different opinion on that

top of the line? i dont think so and im definitely not alone on that
youll see people talk about how NASA uses GH... it makes me laugh
teh government is hardly a good example for spending money wisely

i think GH got it right in the first word - general
generally okay
generally doesnt suck
generally good for plants

its the basic sedan of nutrients. it probably wont break down on the side of the road but it wont turn any heads or win any awards either

there are better nutes for the money if u ask me

i used it for my first grow with good results. didn't need to ph the water at all. was feeding at full strength(maybe even a little heavy feeding) per the feeding schedule mostly the whole grow. the smoke is really nice but i had to cure it for a long frickin' time as i didn't flush for longer than a week. they say with 'organic' you don't need to flush. this grow i am going to flush for a longer period of time, probably over 3 weeks. i may have been over feeding too. my second grow i am in my 5 week of flowering. a couple weeks back i started to see camg+ deficiency in the fan leaves. i checked the ph and found it really acidic so i think i was getting nute lock. i think my water is more acidic now. i am ph'ing it with wood ash and the camg+ deficiency went away. the plants seem very happy. i am nuting 1-2 times a week and watering nearly every day as the plants are really thirsty and maybe a bit root bound. so i like gobox. i think the ph thing may be strain dependent or pheno dependent too as one plant looked more unhappy than the other.

i use GH 3 part with DimondNectar, FloraBlend and liquidkoolbloom for the first time...and i have to say i love it...my plant looks better then ever and very healthy from day1 to now day72 (i grow in Waterfarm)

like [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Rusty said, u will use lots of grow, bloom, and micro...in my case bloom and micro was used the most.

I've been using the Gobox with Sunshine #4 medium for about 6 months now with exceptional results. Superior ph control and it's relatively inexpensive. I had used Dr Earth in the past with poor results. GO is an easy to follow program.
