I know most people say dont grow hydro for your first grow but im one of those assholes who doesnt give a shit...im about 3 weeks into veg and plant looks great really short and dense the way i need it since im in a 3.5ft cab minus 1 ft for reservior. Anyway im using flora nova grow and bloom and also wanted to try using that hornby big bud and the final phase...does anyone know if i can just use the big bud and final phase or should i also use those other advanced nutrient products for bigger bud...im using cfl's through flowering cause i cant get an hps right now and much of what i have was already on hand....dont give me shit about the lights i got about 17000 lumens from 270watts on 1 plant for this first grow...any advise on how to maximize yeild without touching my lights would be appreciated.

air circulation and exhaust will help. keeping fresh air in there big plus. till you get a handle on things i would not just start throwing nutes in there will do more harm then good.
the nute you have will do just fine. dont use the big bud and final phase together big bud is for weeks like 3 to 6 final phase is for last week or so

might want to look into LST or bending the plant so you have plenty of room for the plants too finish

i know you cant throw nutes in im not retarded. I just wanted to know if you can use the big bud or if thats part of their 4part system that they sell. obviosly you dont use them all at once.. and i know the timing of each, what i was wondering is if its effeicient to use the one nute and not the others like they recommend....ill need the flushing solution anyway cause i dont want my weed to taste like nutes...im a first time grower but im fairly intellegent so......if I use this one nute HORNBY BIG BUD will it increase my yeild if used properly or is it a waste with my current set up.

i'm using big bud for the first time, and it seems pretty good. I hear lots of good things about it too, and my buds look pretty good.
