Nutrients for soil grows

Has anyone tried Veganix? It"s Kyle Kushman's new, or relatively new, line of nutes. I'm getting ready to switch from General Organics/General Hydroponics to either Veganix or Humbolt.
Even my local shop is phasing out GH -- "Monsanto" and "organics" really don't jive with a lot of folks.

General Hydroponics Flora Series QT - FloraGro, FloraBloom, and FloraMicro, 32 oz each

31NIzE++otL.jpg$38 on Amazon. Lasts me a year (or more) growing 6-10 autos perpetual all year indoors under a 600hps, using FFOF soil in 1 gallon grow bags.

I hit them with 1cc gro, 4 ccs micro, and 5 ccs of bloom per gallon of water. (get a 10 cc syringe) Does dandy for my grows. Start when flowers start. KISS

I find it hilarious when people load up on Bud Grow, Bud Balls, Big Balls, Flower Candy, Grow Huge, Big Trics, Blow Big, X-mas Tree, Cum Huge, Dr. Big Bud, Viagra Green, Nugget Bucket, Sugar Me Up, Drop That Snow, Big Boner, Bud Explode....................................... You get what I'm saying.

YOU DON'T NEED ALL THE BULLSHIT!!!

Actually the one on the right is a 1 gallon hard pot from the nursery. Older pic. I've since switched over to the 1 gallon grow bags. Ya I grow these all the time like this. Nothing huge. I max out at about 2 ozs each dried.
 
Ha, FloraGrow and Microgrow with a very slight mix of bloom for veg.. Use vinegar for PH down, and try to avoid baking soda but I use it as a PH up when I must. I use more vinegar then anything, I've also used RapidGrowth Root Stimulate for the first 2 weeks... works great, ocean forest soil.

You guys sort of touched on ppm levels but then it just died off. I recently bought a meter so that I can be more exact when feeding and also so that I could more easily switch nutrient brands and give a fair comparison.

I was wondering what range you guys normally keep you ppm reading within. I fully understand all the variables that can impact this range, but like I said I just was curious where you guys keep your readings.

In the past before my meter I would feed 1 or 2 ml of dyna foliage pro and had decent results. With my tap water coming in at around 160 ish, 1 ml of foliage pro would bring a gallon up to about 320 ppm. Looking around though, I see guys claiming they use up to 1400 ppms sometimes more. I'm guessing that has to be hydroponics only? Otherwise I've been seriously underfeeding...

Lately on some plants, I've been using organic/semi organic products that all work well.
1. Fox farm Marine Cuisine/American pride (I prefer the marine cuisine)
2. Chickity doo doo
A. Jobes organic

I've used each exclusively and at mixed with the others. One application just before flower has worked wonders for me. Just water until harvest.

According to the dyna feeding chart, hydro calls for, at its highest point somewhere in the 1400 range. In its soil chart the highest rate is in the mid 500s

Veg:

Age Old Grow (12-6-6), 10mil per gallon of water.

Flower:

Botanicare Pure Blend Pro soil formula (1-4-5), 10mil per gallon of water
Maxicrop, 10-15mil per gallon
Myco Madness mycorrhizal fungi, 1/4tsp per gallon of water

Late flowering (last 2-3 weeks):

Mad Farmer MOAB (0-52-32)

Grow stores sell a lot of overpriced crap that you don't need. They just want your money. I have been using this regimen for quite some time and I get excellent results. If anyone has any input, or thinks that I should be using something that I'm not using please let me know.

If you are getting "excellent results", why would you say this - "or thinks that I should be using something that I'm not using please let me know."

lol - just fukn with ya. How much of the Mad Farmer per gallon? Photos or Autos?
 
A pleasant day master growers!

First-off, I'm a noob. Be kind please.

Hey, are these water-soluble nutes, with their specific NPKs, enough to cover the growth stages of Jack Herer? I'm kinda limited as to what to use for nutes and these are probably the best choices for me in our local market. One also has to consider that I don't have the luxury of local grow shops that cater to "plant-specific" nutrient choices (i.e. "Foxfarm" etc.). All I have are these, rather generalized, fertz:

Seedling:

I'm sticking with my Humus soil with a mixture of 20% bat guano and a bit of compost. I'm just going to water it with regular tap since our water here is really good according to some sources. As for veg...

Here's my Veg fert:

Here's my flowering fert:

Fertz (2).jpg

Are these NPKs enough to sustain my Jack Herer strain plants?
 
Hi I'm new here and to the growing community. I want to know what kind of soil to get and what kind of stuff do I need to put in the soil. I see a lot of talk about "guano this guano that" and I've never seen any cans of guano being sold anywhere ever. So where is all this poop located and what is a good mix for what I can find relatively easy?... Please help

kelp teas, alfalfa teas, worm casting teas, vermicompost teas, No bottles, no synthetics. Very easy and fantastic product results. True organics for the win!
