Looking for Expert Advise on Nutes
I am looking to see what nutes will be worth buying.
I say in every post i use Advanced nutes. High Yield formula. 3 part g,b,m, voo doo juice and big bud.
But i am looking for comparative comments, or comments formulated on experience, I am taking biochem, and i know all the biological aspects so well it pisses me off that i never gardened earlier on, before i could go to jail for it.
That's not my topic, so back to the point,
the other extras i use is tarantula, pirahna, sensi cal mg, carbo load, and sensi zym.
Latewood, Zandor, i know i got some of this info from you earlier, but i do not feel as though i have asked the questions properly.
I want to get comments on what i use now, and then comments on adding liquid karma(humis and fulvic acid), and barricade(silicon). I know these will be great if i am growing big plants, but i am on a 65-70 day cycle. I have also exhausted most of my funds. So I am seeing if anybody has done a grow without and one with, and was there a significant difference in quality and quantity of smoke.
If I missed anything let me know.
But i do know that using what i am already using, is more that enough. I fucked up good three times, before i built something similar to the aero setup latewood posted. My aero unit kicks local growers asses. I just don't tell them that. If asked i got it from their buddy.
Ask me if you need me to clarify something. I am horrible at asking questions.

I know the lucas formula does not do well with papaya. I used GH 3 part bud blood and big bud with orangebud skunk and They seem to do better. If I had the funds I would try all you have suggested just to see. Sounds like your lightyears ahead of me on the nutes and add ons. I know only a few have this answer and I would like to know just what you need and don't need. What packs on the weight more than anything else ???

You are so kind to mention you built a system similar to mine!
Look here. You have a good idea to start with. Since you are on a limited budget use what you have. Liquid Karma is great stuff...As far as Barricade??? the LK will make your rez happy enough. If you can't afford it. Get superthrive. 1/4 tsp gallon... B vits and Hormones
buy General Hydroponics 3-part...easier to come by,
AN and GH 3-part are the same thing.
If you use ROwater/distilled water, then you need calmag+.
voodoo juice is awesome, but expensive, so I would wait on that.
Liquid Karma and Hygrozyme is the additives I would use on a budget.
AN additives I use...Voodoo Juice(when available)
Bud Blood...1st week after transition flush(1 week only)
Big Bud...until...I want to finish(weeks 2-5? of bloom)...
then, I use Overdrive. week or 2
I flush with Final Phase or Florakleen (have both) Florakleen is also great for washing the salts out of your hydroton.
GH has a full line...similar to the botanicare additive's
You could go entirely with the pure blend pro.
Botanicare's Organic nutes...I use these for my peppers/tomato's
add: LK, Calmag+, Sweet,...see where I'm going with this.
and Hygrozyme
I used to follow/adapt to the AN website's calculator, but now growing clones I am using a tweaked lucas formula.
1-5-10 veg.....Calmag+, Lk, Hygrozyme.
1-8-15 bloom.....Calmag+, Liquid Karma,
and Hygrozyme all the way thru,
IN Bloom Phase
ADD: Budblood, BigBud, and overdrive consecutively as stated above.
Hope you can decifer my rantings...Goodluck lw
