nutrient help for veg and flower

hey i am looking for fertilizers for my lady. i know 20-10-10 or 30-10-10 is good for veg and 10-30-10 is ideal for flowering. now can i just go buy any brand at the stores? i have canadian tire walmart lowes etc. what si a good brand to use ? scotts , MG others??? do they all do the same if the nutrients are the same?

For me I just bought any kind of 20-20-20 but I will be using it at very low dosages. Most peopler prefer FoxFarm nutes but for me I would go with MG or Scotts but remember to feed at very low dosages.

ok thank you toolang anyone else have any opinions the more i know the better knowledge is power

please, please, please don't use those crappy nutes. The stuff that's sold at 'regular' stores isn't designed for MJ growing.

You need to go to a hydro store or to an online store that's a specialist in marijuana. They sell nutrients that will actually help your plants grow and help your plants have the most THC.

I use Advanced Nutrients - available at local hydro stores and online. Super strong and easy to use with the online calculator. Even newbies use them withotu troubles.

Yes, you do need to spend a little money on your nutes, but it's totally worth it. Using cheapo nutes from grocery stores and Wal-Mart is going to bite you in the ass - and it's going to ruin your grow's result.

Your local nursery will probably carry a Jacks classic all purpose 20-20-20 but you have the right idea. Look for NPK ratios similar to what you've outlined above and stay away from your local hydro store. They're as clueless as the kids around here that say you need an expensive fertilizer '...designed for MJ growing'. If you want to see how poorly cannabis specific nutrients perform, check out the DynaGro vs Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur comparison in my signature.

just remember people in the 70s and 80s didnt have any of these "advanced" nutrients and they did quite well. but then again weed these days tends to be more potent. but you will do fine guying nutes from your local nursery

when getting an all purpose 20-20-20, 10-10-10, x-x-x, you can use it to grow at any stage flower or veg, the key is to just underfeed. Overfeeding will lock something or other out. Just stressing what was said about feeding at low doses.
