I certainly wouldn't say anythings the "best" since I havn't used every product out there.

But generally you see a lot of people using GH Flora Series, either all 3 bottles or using Lucas Formula. I've used the 3 bottles and was happy. You can also use GH Flora Nova bloom or GH Maxibloom throughout the whole life of the plant. I am currently doing so with Flora Nova and am happy with that as well. It's only 1 bottle too so very simple and straight forward.

I'd suggest using Hydroguard or some other type of benneficial bacteria, or some guys go the other route and run H202 to just kill everything. It's up to you but doing something to keep roots happy is suggested.

I dont have a clue which is the best as i havnt tried them all either, but the gh flora series does the trick for me. Super simple and i use all 3 bottles no problems at all.

I'd recommend Canna or Remos. A little more expensive than the GH, but designed for cannabis. Also haven't tried them all.. just a recommend from experience. GH works but not as well.

GH Flora is the one I had the best results and less issues with, I have also used AN PH Perfect and Humboldt County's Own... HCO is second best. I think AN isnt as good as people tend to think and they are way over priced.

I use the H202 Method, I tried the bennies but algae just took over, I used the Home depot buckets and light got through. Also the H2O2 adds oxygen to the water as well and aids in nutrient uptake.

I'd recommend black buckets due to algae. And yes the nova series does well with dwc. Clearex is for flushing... at the very end, and yes can be used dwc.

you can paint the buckets, but the paint does start to peel over time. if you wanna see if a container is light proof, just put it over you head in a bright room or your grow room if you can, i do it at home depot all the time. people look at me like im a kook.

All the brands work the same for me
And ive used just about every major nutrient brand on the shelves....several times. Base nutrients and most additives. Same results....for years.
