Base Nutrient for Veg?

[NorthernLights4]

The three-part Fox Farm line works great. I use an organic soil, but have best results with the FF line.

Im glad hear about your success, :jointsmile: how many seasons have you been successful with FF?

How come? Just curious. I've found that indoors, in pots, organics can be a bitch to dial-in. The nutrients break-down slower than with chemical nutes, which are available immediatelly. (easier to diagnose and treat deficiencies)

Im not dead set on them, I just prefer them for bloom, I think they add the right taste and make the smoke perfect. For veg its really up in the air, maybe a mix? I know FF line is both chem with organics, best of both worlds. :thumbsup:

IMHO, all of the AN products are way overpriced, with spotty results. Not a mistake I'll make with them again.
Fox Farms Big Bloom has guano, castings...and the other two in the 3-part series have the micronutes. They also have a handy feeding chart for newbies. (newbies to their nutes, that is) And no...I don't have any type of affiliation to FF or anybody that sells it, other than being a satisfied customer.

I agree, Advanced nutes are a pretty penny but ive heard about the results. What i like to do is find out what they use in some of their products and find substitutes. Like AN Piranha is microorganisms and mostly root fungi, so im going with a $10 Mycorrhizea from plant success.

Beneficials are...beneficial, whether organic nutes are used or not. :jointsmile: If using michorrizae, careful with additives that will kill beneficials. (hydrogen peroxide, for instance)

Thats a good point you bring up, i know the chlorine in tap water also kills them so what I like to do is fill up a Gal of water or however much I will need and I pump air via a small fish pump through the water overnights. Helps aeration and evaporates the chlorine.

Last season i used GH BB bio bloom and Green Fuse bloom stimulator during the bloom. Both being organic i had rather good results :stoned:, but now im stuck with a decition on nutrient for veg. I dont know if i should go with the GH BB bio veg or if anyone has something els on thier mind. I would like to stick to organic, and my soil is about 30%perlite 20% peat and 50% organic soil with guano worm castings Rating: 5
