i plan to visit a hydroshop soon anyways. the shultz has never caused me troubles (no deficiencies, no burns) so i cant complain. however the flowering stuff is pretty low quality, and due to its being a solid ive toasted the tips at the bottom of one plant with it slightly.
i plan to switch to some proper ferts and molassas ASAP
bc grow, bc boost, alaska fish emulsion, alaska bloom, super thrive....
i will be going nute shopping soon.

Whats other ppls. take on this ?

For organic indoor or outdoor grows, veggies, houseplants/flowers or pot I used Mermaid fish emulsion for years. Now I use Neptune fish and/or kelp emulsions (there are a few different formulas).
I am just starting, with the last three or four grows to use the specialized fertilizer and suppliments as mentioned by others (not specifically General Hydoponics products) with a lot more experience with them and often they are hydro grows.
I tried Top Max last grow. This grow I'm using 3 part Technoflora plus the "Recipe" suppliments. I dunno, we'll see...
I"m still in soil and I'm not sure yet what works "best" for growing a little weed. I don't think it takes a lot of extra in a good organic soil.

oh ya, I started using molasses (read about that here too) in the water once in a while, I really like that idea...I love the smell! <G>

The numbers aren't important. The ratio between the numbers is what you should be concerned with. 10-5-1 is the same thing as 20-10-2 if you use twice as much. For veg, you want a higher N and lower P, like 10-2-5. For bloom you want lower N, espicially nearing the end. There's really about 3 stages of blooming that should all have different ratios, but a good all around budding ratio is something like 2-10-5.
In blooming drop the "Grow" and use the Lucas Formula..........Good CHit.........0-8-16
All fox farm nutes.
Beastie Blooms

Etc. Depends on the week.
Compost, lucerne tea, sugar cane waste (top dressing), sea weed extract, fish emulsion during veg and monty's organic (4:8:4) during flowering. TLC and liberal doses of late 70's English punk.
