Good hydro chemical starting kit?

I very recently began my first grow. I had planned to try and just use old aquarium water, which has a good amount of nitrates, but that does not seem to be working. So I want to get some hydroponics chemicals stat. In another thread MrGreenFingers recommened Mega Grow and Jacks.

For Mega Crop, does this look like the correct one - first one on this page for general growth I would assume? https://greenleafnutrients.com/shop/

For Jacks Hydro, does this look like the correct one? https://www.jacksnutrients.com/jacks-nutrients-lineup Which one of those would be right for just general growing?

Then I did a little digging, what about this General Hydroponics combo pack to get me through the whole process? This seems pretty popular, and not too expensive. https://www.ebay.com/itm/General-Hydroponics-Flora-Series-Gro-Micro-Bloom-16oz-Pints-gh-nutrients/233536835331?hash=item365fe14f03:g:jOgAAOSw9hdaSnQ4


Any thoughts on the above, or any others? I'm all ears!

Much appreciated!

GH Floratrio is great. I'd recommend you get a gallon of each though. The cost is considerably higher the smaller you go in size. You'll want their CaliMagic too and use 0ppm Reverse Osmosis water to start with. I have charts I can post here for you that have worked for many of us for years and years flawlessly.

GH Flora series.... The OG of hydroponic nutrients, I have done lots of different brands and have found GH to be just as good as the rest, it's a no BS easy to use system.... No hype no 10 part systems , 30 bucks online for 1 quart bottles of the complete 3 part system. The only thing I add to it is cal mag.

CaliMagic really works well with as it's from GH too. Botanicare has double the N.
I am a calimagic guy myself too. Just checked the label %'s and the technaflora MagiCal has double the nitrogen of calimagic and less calcium and magnesium, more inline with the botanicare stuff if my memory serves me well.
