Hey out there! I am setting up my grow and I am curious about what comments people have about Dutch Master nutes (for a hydro DWC in a Homebox S grow tent with 400 MH veg light and 400 HPS for flower). I ordered Dutch Master Advanced Grow on amazon.com and also and Dutch Master Penetrator and Folitech Grow for foliar spraying. I didn't order any flowering nutes from them until I get some feedback from anyone who has used Dutch Master line of products. Thanks for letting me pick your brains!
This week I am getting 5 fem Flying Dutchman Gforce seeds (a G13 hybrid), 5 fem Flying Dutchman Dame Blanche seeds (cross-breed of White Widow and Skunk/Northern Lights) and 2 Barneys Farm G13 Haze fem seeds (G13 x Hawaiian Indica) plus 5 free G13 Power skunk and Ice seeds!
To answer my own question I will run an experiment! Three seeds in each bubbler (one of each female seeds).
In my tent with a 400 watt system, I will use two seperate DWC bubble setups and use Dutch Master nutes ( Advanced Grow and Bloom in the nute solution and Penetrator and Folitech Grow and Bloom for foliar feedings which will be done in the morning on both side of the leaf!). The other bubbler will get a 3-part nute solution that I got from Stealthy Hydroponics (you guys are right, they are expensive, but their CFLs do seem to be good lights but now I have upped my equipment using 400 watt MH to veg and a 400 watt HPS for bloom and have my flex duct coming this week, as well as an inline 6" fan from 4hydro that has 160CFM and my reflector is a 6" air cooled that I will hook up the duct to and use a WHE branch to join both sides of the exhaust to the top of my homebox). In one side of the duct I will have a 4 inch fan/carbon filter 130CGM for odor control and to help the exhaust out of my tent. Intake is passive. All this is stuff I learned the past year on reading posts and following grows. I definitely hated working around 7-10 CFLs hanging in my tent and the safety issue was making me a bit nervous! The yield should be better with the 55,000 lumen HPS bulb!
I got my lights from HTG Supply that has amazing prices on Ebay ($279.00 for whole package of 400 watt HD, 400 watt HPS and reflector and balast. That includes tax and shipping in the price!!) Well sorry this reads like a novel, but I am a detail oriented person. I will leave updates as I go and eventually, pics. Any input will be appreciated too! Peace!!

Liquid light is also pretty awesome, easyway to pump up the volume.
My new system is a fog based aero set-up, I intend to use the DM Advance line, especially since it's a Kreb's cycle deal. (Anyone keeping the name of Dr.Krebs alive is ok by me, his name has quickly disappeared from medical textbooks). I think that it will have less build-up of salts then most.
AND I use proudly, (hehe, sorry wh) Reverse. I have a small greenhouse set-up that usually has multi strians growing in it for the summer. It would be a major loss to have someone go transgender in there and screw everything up.
I'm pretty sure you'll be happy with the direction your going.
Just remember, as with all nutes, less is more. When in doubt, go easier then recommended...you can always add more.
I ordered all my nutes from Dutch Master. I like to have everything planned out with every step! Thanks for your opinion, it helps all of us newbies out there. I just ordered some beans from (Nirvana Pure Power Plant feminized, and regular Nirvana AK 48 and Chrystal). I have 1 question, does the Dutch Master Reverse work on all plants when you flower or just the females? I ordered a bottle and I am unsure of that! Thanks again, oldmac!
HTG supply rules! My system came today (Monday) after I ordered iton Ebay on Thursday! They were out of the reflector I ordered and upgraded me to a better one. They are really an excellent hydro store with customer service that they really take pride in! If your looking to get a sweet system for a good price they are highly recommended by me and many others!
I've never tried Reverse on male plants. For me the only reason to grow out a male is to collect pollen, and if I don't want male pollen I kill the male plants.Quote:

PPP is my favorite sativa, and the only one I'd grow indoors, becuase it's a NON-equatorial sativa...it actually responds to 12/12 flowering. (good head too)
I read that the Reverse is to use in case of hermafrodite issues. I am waiting for an order of The Flying Dutchman feminized G Force and Blanche Dame seeds. And I ordered two Barneys Farm G13 Haze females too. I ordered these from theattitudeseedbank.com and with my total I got 5 G13 Power Skunk and 5 Ice seeds free. They should be here hopefully tomorrow! I have all my nutes and like you advised will start out really light and look for nute burn on the leaf tips. I am ordering a TDS meter tomorrow too, it seems to make sense to have one! I read on one thread how most people try to grow cheaply and expect huge yields and powerful buds that taste and smell perfect. But they all realize that you probably have to spend anywhere from $1,000 to $2,000 dollars to get really good results from your growing. I learned it all from this site and from all of you "Pot Professors" out there. Peace, and have a good night.
