I'd say don't use the 3 part nutrient. Just so you know when I you told that floralicious was an additive. I wasn't guessing. I use to work at a hydro store and I quit because I thought that I was going to learn all kinds of neat stuff and then I realized most of them just read books and repeated what they had heard. As for using floralicious, i'd suggest using Flora Nova if you aren't use to using nutes. Floralicious is a good additive with Floranova. The other part about floranova is that it's ph stabilized for the most part. This means that you won't probably need to add ph up or down unless your water is incredibly bad. The other thing that I would suggest is that when you run out of Floralicious switch to Liquid Karma. It works great but it smells bad. Floranova is organic based as well. But that term is misleading. I play with different nutes. Maxsea is kelp based but after 50% of the ingredients some of these ingredients are straight chemical which isn't terrible. It just is.
