Recomend Nutrients

Starting my second grow. My first grow was in coco soil with BC Nutrients. Turned out to be a pain. BC nutrients have to much Phosphate which reacts with coco soil and blocks nitrogen from getting to plants.
On my second grow I will try eb and flow system with a rock-wool media. After my first grow I am still confused what nutrient to use. Schedule of feeding of nutrients is pretty important too. so I was wondering if you guys can post which nutrients worked best for you, and your schedule of feeding. Please be as detailed as possible.
Appreciate any help

in a hydro setup? Stay off the crack.

GH 3 part is a solid line at a low cost
Botanicare PBP is another.

I've used both, work great in hydro and results are comparable to the higher end stuff like advanced and canna.

Dyna gro is the shit. With a little math you can achieve perfect nutrient ratios. Check out the Folige-Pro, Mag-Pro, and Pro-tekt. Yields excellent results, I'm talking green till chop. None of this fan leaf yellowing bullshit towards the end.

Here is the feeding schedule. http://www.dyna-gro.com/Website pdf Files/Dyna Gro Feeding Chart.pdf

I also supplement with Advanced Nutrients B-52 Fertilizer Booster for a B vitamin and Dr Hornby's Voodoo Juice for root development. And I use Dutch Master Liquid light with the Saturater Gold as a surfactant for foliar feeding. Works very well. I would highly recommend The liquid light.

nefarious nutes are cheap and cocco specific, dont go wih ebb and flow stay with cocco and run a feed and waste system, had betterresults with nefarious then any other nute in the same price range $24 for both a&b, using cocco is so easy just remember to always have at least 10% waste coming out, test your waste for ph should be 6.3 use recomended rate on the bottle cant go wrong!!

i use gh flora series cheap and effective

I like the dutch masters line

cannabiogen A+B, mycorrhizae and some superthrive....

If I am going to grow from seed when does week one starts? When I"m going to have four leaves or when?

I use the GH 3 part Flora series. Have always had very good results.

always had problems using dutchmaster

i have been using vitalink max for the last few years i switched from canna that i used for as long as i can remember both of which i find do the job well
i would use a 2 part food for the correct water supply , hard or soft, i wouldn't bother with 3 part foods i have tried GH 3part and advanced 3part foods and didn't notice any improvement just extra cost, and an annoying feeding scheme

for your coco plants VitaLink Coir

It is essential to use a coir nutrient, such as VitaLink Coir when growing in coco coir media. This is because Coir contains less Potassium to take into account that this mineral is released from the coir media during the growing cycle. Coir media also has a tendency to draw down and lock in Calcium. For this reason,Coir contains elevated levels of Calcium, which is essential for healthy fruit and flower development.

vitalink is the main 2part food used here in the uk now, it seems to have replaced canna in all the hydro shops i do remember reading vitalink supplies its phosphorous slightly differently its using Phosphite along with phosphate and b1 giving it some advantages, how much of this is true i dont know, but it seems to work here

I use Cutting Edge 3 part and add a little Cutting Edge Mag Amp (mag and Sulf). It's cheap, simple, and, if you look at my grow, very effective. Not one leaf blemish. I am also a fan of the GH Flora like the 2 guys above. Also cheap, very effective, simple, and has been around for longer than most other nutes.

I'm blown away that relatively new growers go out and buy 15 bottles of Advanced stuff and try to figure it all out. I know that they are quality nutes, but new grows should strive for simple nutes, so that they can concentrate on other, more difficult challenges, like atmosphere control.

i use synthetic ferts that come in parts, basically powder chemicals. i have 4 parts:calcium nitrate, potassium nitrate, monopotassium phosphate, and magnesium sulfate (epsom). also i have a trace element mix. it works great, i have perfect control on feeding, and it's cheap. but it's not the simplest fert out there

Namaste'

Well since everyone is suggesting something different, I will second the recommendation for botanicare nutes. I wouldn't go the rockwool route. I would do buckets with hydroton and perlite mixture.

im not a fan of additives although i have tried many of them over the years i havent really noticed any improvement so i consider them a waste of money now
they are just not needed a good quility food is all that is needed to give great results, ive wasted all the money i will ever waste on bloom boosters additives stimulints growth regulators mirco additives etc etc i know some growers that think if they dont use superthrive their plants will not yield as much or the quility will suffer

Cosign the Botanicare endorsements above, and screw rockwool, but I'd run 50/50 hydroton and coir in smart pots, ebb and flow or drain to waste.

Yo wolverine, did you have problems running coco in with the hydroton? I'm in flood/drain buckets and wanted to add something for a little better mychrizal habitation so I threw about 20% perlite in there. I was worried that the flooding and draining would leach coco out of the mix and make a mess.

You're godamn right, Skunk. If the nutes need a booster, they're not good nutes.
