What kind of nutrients to use?

So I took a little trip down to my local hydroponics store, I walked in and soon stood in awe of all the beautiful growing supplies. I carefully chose my words though, how I was looking for "tomato" growing supplies ;-). I don't think it mattered much, the guys there were in their early 20's and had long hair. I saw beautiful grow lights and the plants they had growing in the back, they even had a full sized bananna tree! I was soon filled with fantastic dreams of what I could do if left to my own devices in the store, haha. Anyways, I saw racks of countless kinds of nutrients, organic guano, liquid stuff. Needless to say I was pretty overwhelmed with choices. I don't plan on ordering anything more than seeds online so what have been your best nutrients you have found in these stores? With soil nutrients will you eventually need to add liquid nutrients anyways?

Bump, I'm looking for soil nutrients, I don't know if there is any difference. Do they come in liquid form and do you just add them to to the soil, I don't know if they would be any other way...

Well you can never go wrong with GH. I only used soil a few times, but I used FoxFarm nutes and loved them. They're a littttttle hot though and make over-nuteing easy.

Very nice! With GH is usually findidh flowering at about 150% strength nutes. I wish I could take pictures of my grow but my "investor" aka borderline Nazi with a big wallet forbids it. W/e it's his house and I'm getting mine.

i think you'd be happy with any two part (like Flora Nova series) or three-part (like Flora series).
