Hello guys prety new to growing

I am about to get 25 master kush x purple kush

and need help with nutrients i see so much out there and most ppl like to mix n match , so it doesnt make it easy to decide what get

iv been readin alot about jacks classic or GH

but when i tried to find out what exact products i need to have a full set nutrients everyone always has some other product included in there list

can someone please :) recommend me exactly what i should get...

id prefer to stay with something cheaper

i do got a few biobizz products sitting around along with the biobizz soil , the feeding schedule they provide you with seems to be wrong from what i read..

Root Juice
Bio Grow
Bio Bloom
Bud Candy
Top Max

I dont know if this is good enough to use or if i should add anything or go with a whole different line of nutrients and maybe a bit of schedule !!

please help me ! :)

General hydroponics works great, three items. But I will testify to using voodo juice the first few weeks it is expensive but I have done side by side comp with veggies and week and the roots are three times the size using this stuff it is worth it by far.

DYNA GRO. the proof is in the pudding my friend. Cheap, last a long long time, and its easy to use. www.DYNA-GRO.com check it out brah. Never failed me yet, and I've played with quite a few nutes.

voodo juice for sure flora nova works but i had better exp with the three part general hydroponics stuff soil and hydro. But nothing wrong with flora nova but I think that is a two part mix

REad the voodo juice label it is only used first few weeks than last few weeks and make sure you got a big pot because the roots go wild.

the biobizz stuff you have is fine , i am using it , its only mollasses and shit but it does say organic on the label , so imo its win win, cos you have it lying around

The GH line is always a good choice. I'm trying the PBP grow and bloom from botanicare. Stuff works amazing. Also using the liquid karma, sweets berry, and hydroplex with it... great results so far...

No ones telling you the right answer really.... The truth is, its less important which brand of nutes you use and waaaay more important how you use them. of course everyone has their favorites, but they will all work when used correctly. Being new to growing your results are much less likely to come from the nutes you use and way more from how much you pay attention to them. Again, being new to growing, chosing gh over dynagrow or botanicare over advanced nutrients or whatever is only going to make a cunt hair of a difference. Just use what you got. Dont love em to death. WATCH YOUR RU.OFF PH, and remember, less is more. Seriously. It is. Also, maybe dont sprout all those seeds, thats a lot to take care of for a beginner.

if you want to use GH I can help you out ther as I use em with good succes ..

and you dont need the grow bottel .. what you want to get is bloom and Micro .. and use the "Lucas Fomular"

easy .. cheap and good results if you dont mind that it is`t organic .. but I think I need to grow a few more crops before looking in to all that ..


Ooh yea and I also got the Rip .. but that is for late flowering .. last 2 weeks ..

now I just use the micro (that also have all them importent ..cal/mg/zink/copper/iron and stuff in it you will need for helthy plants) and bloom ..

3ml micro and 6 ml bloom per gallon each watering all growth !!!!

(you can also use 5/10ml For Vegetative cycle
and 8-16ml For Flowering cycle if you only add nuts evry seccon/tird watering)

I like the 3/6 ML tho ..

about 20-25$ for them two bottels .. 1 liters each .. have two big plants .. wont even use half .. will have for 1 or 2 grows more ...

ask if you got any questions and remember to google Lucas Fomular and do some research ;)

i have to agree with you definitiely some great recommendations but my slipon is breaking it down in a little bit more detail..

im aware of this stuff but no idea how to use it !!!!

The three-part nutrient from General Hydroponics has long been regarded as being pretty much the best nutrient on the market for hydroponic systems and can be used with soil and coco as well.

Developed by former NASA chemists, this nutrient is one of the cleanest available leaving little build up in either the plants or nutrient tank.

FloraMicro is the ‘building block’ of the nutrients, providing essential micronutrients as well as nitrogen, potassium and calcium. It is available in either hard or soft water variants.



so make sure to check your water before buying it .. you need to know if you have hard or soft water .. check your water suplir if you use tap water .. if you use RO water I cant help you much .. do the research .. but I bet its soft (I use hard water nutriens as I got semi hard/hard tap water/320PPM)


0 - 4 dH, 0 - 70 ppm : very soft 4 - 8 dH, 70 - 140 ppm : soft 8 - 12 dH, 140 - 210 ppm : medium hard 12 - 18 dH, 210 - 320 ppm : fairly hard 18 - 30 dH, 320 - 530 ppm : hard higher : liquid rock (Lake Malawi and Los Angeles, CA)

Rip is for late flowering ..

last 2-3 weks .. to be honorst I realy dont know exatly what it have in it ..

tho my littel research did tell me .. some kind of homons or sumthing that tricker that plant to belive that winther is comming soon...
so the plant hurries and boost bud pruduction in a attemt to catch some last minut polln .... or sumthing like that ...


the reason why I like the lucas fomular is that it is easy to use ..

I use the 3ML micro and 6ML bloom nutriens per 1 gallon (4 liter) of water ... evry time I water .. all grow .. from 4Th not on the stem/plant untill I will use the rip 3 weeks before .. and 1 week before do a littel flushing/cleen water ..

the idea with 3ML/6ML

is that you mostlikely will water once or maybe twise a week in the early stages and more like evry seccon day in flowering ..roughly and climping ..

so with 3/6 the plant would get very close to the same ammount that if you only did add the nutriens evry seccon or 3th watering .. with diffrent ammounts in veg and flowering ..

just to make it extra easy ..


maybe some water qualitys and some plant strains can go higher or maybe a bit lower .. that is sumthing for you to find out along the way .. this is just like a rull of tump .. a good starting point ..

of course .. start on half strengs when you have small plants .. but you schould be able just to use 3ML micro and 6ML bloom nutriens per gallon of water evry watering all the way from start to end ..
