Advanced Nutrients Help, Feeding with multiple nutrients

[TheRealist99]

Hi my friends. I have a question and would like to start a topic on Feeding your plants multiple Nutrients (Advanced Nutrients). I'm sure there is info on this subject somewhere in these forums but i would like all answers to be specific as possible. Anyway when i feed my plants, i feed with multiple nutrients, Micro, Grow, Bloom, Big Bud, Bud Candy etc.. I'm wondering how people use all their nutrients when feeding. It sometimes takes me 2days to do a feeding because of all the nutrients i use. I will feed with Micro, then 8-10hrs later i feed with Grow, 8-10hrs later i feed with Bloom and so on. I wait that long in between each nutrient to make sure it is absorbed in the plant and roots before adding another nutrient. Do i have to feed like this? Or can i mix all my nutrients in separate bottles but after they are mixed can i put all the nutrients i want to feed my plant in the same bottle and then feed so i'm only feeding once? How do all others do their feeding? I'm just wondering how people who use like 10 different nutrients, feed their plants.
(I do know that people only feed a certain couple nutrients every time they feed then just switch which nutrients you feed every other feeding schedule). If people could share their experience in this topic i would appreciate it. I currently only so far grow with the PH Perfect Micro Grow Bloom base nutrients and Big Bud and Bud Candy for bloom stages but I currently have more nutrients on the way. How do people feed their plants all those nutrients every time they feed? Please explain in detail.

Oh sorry i forgot to mention i am growing in Pro Mix Hp, it's supposed to be a soil less medium. I'm just wondering plain and simple how people water and feed their plants numerous nutrients at feeding time. Some people use like 6 different nutrients on each feed. How do they do this? Like i explained? Feed micro then 8-10hrs later feed grow then 8-10hrs later feed bloom and so on and so on with different nutrients? Or can i mix all my nutrients in separate bottles but after they are mixed can i put all the nutrients i want to feed my plant in the same bottle and then feed, instead of just doing one nutrient at a time every 8-10hrs? That's basically all i need to know is how do i feed my plants in a soil less medium numerous different nutrients at each feed. Thanks:rasta::mad:

In great detail, plain and simple. Read the directions and if that doesn't answer your questions then try the Advance Nutrients' website.

Sounds to me you have already made up your mind on how to feed. Constructive criticism expands the mind. Take it or leave it? Peace

Never heard of this, and I'm waaaaay to lazy to jump on the AN web site to read up on it.

That said, a comment or three:

1] I'm a noob. Take that in consideration on everything I post. Shovel and Esteban are far more experienced (in my experience). But I read a lot. :)

2] I've never heard of anyone feeding the way you do. You're micromanaging things. I'm using Fox Farms liquid nutes, and here's the basics for that: I get one shot at it every 3-4 days. All the food gets mixed in one batch and the plants are watered once. I run half the formula prescribed in the Fox Farms hydro instructions. It's all carefully measured, mixed and THEN pH adjusted. Plants are watered until they leak out the bottom with this. I am then DONE until next time (no more water/food until the soil is almost dry). And seriously, I wonder if half strength might be too much. Every watering, I make a decision based on what I see in the leaves: pH adjusted water ONLY, or feed, too? I'm surprised how often I decide water only. My grow is in Coco Coir and perlite, so it's kind of a mix between a soil grow and hydro in that the "soil" I'm using has no nutrients.

3] Do you eat all your corn before you move on to the steak? If you're going to give your plants a 7-course luxury meal, half the luxury is letting the plant decide how to eat it, no?

4] I'm still fulla shit. Go back and read #1.
