I just want to keep it straightforward

This is a question regarding my flowering period. I have been using Technaflora's RFS kit and previously added Big Up powder while scaling back the Awesome Blossoms in the BC solution recipe and I've been happy. I have used up all my Big Up powder and have purchased AN's Super Bud Blaster at the recommendation of quite a few others in my area. I am also interested in incorporating Hammerhead. I was told to run Bud Blaster starting week 2 of bloom and dropping with 2 weeks left. I have a pair of Holy Grail females in 3.5 gallons containers with FFOF. My bloom solution will follow the RFS flowering recipe and this is where my question is brought up:

1. Can I drop Awesome Blossoms and sub in the Blaster, or do I just scale it down? (AN's Super Bud Blaster is strong I'm told)
2. Is attempting to incorporate Hammerhead with Super Bud Blaster (if cutting Awesome Blossoms) over-kill or complementary?
3. And in all reality, what would be your suggestions when considering AN's bloom products? *descriptions of a few products seem to be relatively the same so I do not want to buy a product I do not necessarily need.

*** I am not asking if AN is worth it, if you like it or don't like it, or if you use something else. I have read those threads. I am asking the experienced Advanced Nutrients users how to sort out my best bets when stepping into the fray of AN's products. I want to learn AN because I have already incorporated Voodoo Juice, Tarantula, and Piranha (bought a box of pints along with Bud Candy for $50 at DH website) and all I have to say is I am impressed with how my roots look. My goal is to get into AN Sensi as my base when my Technaflora bottles are empty.

you could drop all those useless additives and simply send your unwanted money to me. i will love and cherish it as if it were my own and you wouldnt have to waste anymore time measuring out all those pointless liquids.

if you want to keep it straight forward drop all that crap. none of it is needed. i recommend using a good reliable base nutrient and make sure your PH is always in check so your plant has access to everything it needs. bennies for your roots because healthy roots = good nutrient uptake = healthy plants.

that is literally all you need for fantastic grows that are as good and often better than the grows using all the additives. if you must use a bud booster for what ever reason just pick one, for the most part they are all just the same shit with different labels

Waste the money. There's so many other nutrient lines for a fraction of the price that will lead to the same results. But add the multiple overpriced bottles

lol, I know right?!

Listen people, I've heard and read all the posts about wasting money and not needing a ton of crap all over various forums, which to an extent I agree. That's not my question. I've grown for awhile now with and without certain elements while keeping ph and ppm in range and control. I can say that the statement "you don't need ANY of it" is not completely true so saying so is a waste of time.

aussie: Between the Technaflora box and the four-pack of AN's taran-piran-voodoo-candy pints, thats less than $100 I've spent on nutes and that will last me at least 4 grows or more. Not quite a huge waste of money that you might be thinking of considering what I am able to yield in my situation. And dude, to love money is the evil in the world.

If anyone is reading this now, I did not ask for general input or opinion about what to spend money on. If you do not or have not used Advanced in the past, do not reply.

Well that should get you all the help you need. Why not just call Adv Nut?

dude your thread is called [h=2]"I just want to keep it straightforward"[/h]yet you clearly are running an overcomplicated amount of additives. i gave you good solid advice you can choose to like it or lump it but dont ask us for advice on keeping it simple then throw it back at us when we try and help you do just that.

if you feel you must use additives as many growers do at least read the ingredients and know what it is your putting into your plants and you will soon come to notice that its all just the same shit relabelled.

as for the love of money i was obviously kidding but considering how hard you are chasing yield i suspect you might be the one chasing that golden dollar my friend, what do you think?

I can't tell if that is intended to be sarcastic or not.

It is. And the reason for that is your asking about a very specific question about a specific line of shitty nutrients. I dont think you will get much help on the "newbie central" forum. maybe the Advanced growers thread or the hydro area.

You may think Adv. is shitty and thats fine, it's your opinion and we all think differently towards certain brands. What I can say is that applying Voodoo juice has impressed me. Its hard to convey tone in text but the others who have posted have a smart-ass attitude that much is apparent. m4s73r, I'll try the other growers section and read what I can find about Adv. Nuts there and beyond that, I'll just have to learn the hard way lol. cheers.
