mainegrown Reviewed by mainegrown on 01-16-2010. Good, simple organic nutrient regime in soil for beginner?! Hey all, I'm getting ready to buy my nutes for the first time. I'm thinking I want to go organic or mostly organic (Fox Farm). My main goal is to get something simple... I don't want to get like 4-5 bottles of crap to mix and have to mix everything individually. This is why I'm not mixing my own. I want a minimum number of bottles (1-3 maybe) and a very easy routine... I want a small number of bottles that contain ALL micro/macro nutrients so I don't have to worry about individual Rating: 5

lampost. i would be careful with the humboldt organics. i've heard that they are super-concentrated (states this on their webiste as well) and can wreak some havoc. i have no experience with them myself.....not to mention they don't seem to be certified by any organization.

abyss, you are correct about the biobloom as far as i can see. i'm still looking for some more info though.

Thanks I will definitely heed the warning and start half-strength. I've been hearing a lot that the QC sucks and isn't very consistent... so you can get an extra hot batch!

the weird thing is that organics shouldn't run "super hot". you shouldn't (for the most part) be able to nute burn your plants with organics. so i don't understand the need for a "super concentrated" organic nute.....that's not certified.

to each is own. good luck and keep us posted.

Will do. I'm going to start a grow log soon. I need to because I'm starting to make way too many threads with all of my questions!

i second headshake on the bio bizz line its all i've ever used.
its IS all organic but i dont use the topmaxx
i use budswel instead its not certified but its been around forever and works wonders. also to save headaches you should use distilled or ro water, in which case you'll need cal-mag plus to take car of all you trace nutes.
i usually use a few other additives like nitrozime but you should do fine without it. i mix them similar to gh's flora line feeding schedule. keep in mind that not all strains like the same levels of nutes at certain times.if you decide to go with biobizz, i'd be happy to post my feeding schedule.
thats just my 2 cents. good luck!

Hey thanks I'll check into BioBizz. Can you just post up the products you use? I don't need a feeding schedule right now... just want to do a cost comparison.

i just got an email back from biobizz. they said they are just waiting on the 2010 certs from OMRI. the bloom IS (or will be) OMRI certified. they just can't put it on the bottle for now. at least that's what i'm told.

ive been using sugarpeak one part its very simple and it contains the same guanos and molasses that i make teas out of when im not lazy. with excellent results in veg anyway. at the start of flower i used ff beastie a couple times to ensure my normal weight. oh but they reccomend catalyst i dont use it i use karma

I use Maxsea, it's a seaweed based organic, it's pretty forgiving if you overmix, and it comes in all purpose for veg, and bloom. It's moderately priced, simple, and it just plain works.
