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 deficiencies. I don't have an EC/pH meter, so I don't want something that's going to be very difficult to mix correctly either. I will have pH test strips (hopefully some more accurate ones).

So ANY help would be much appreciated! Here's what I've been looking into so far:

-Botanicare Pureblend Pro
-Earthjuice (I've heard I need some significant soil amendments with this incl. potash and other stuff)
-Humboldt Nutrients (Looking at Master A/Master B/Micro OR Grow/Bloom/Micro OR Oneness)
-Fox Farm nutes (probably Tiger Bloom and an additive)

My main selection criteria is going to be 1]Nute regime that provides best impact on YIELD & QUALITY, 2]Simplicity (mimimum number of different products), 3] Price, and 4]Lack of additional amendments required (Pretty much in that order)

Additional info: I'm using Fox Farm Ocean Forest with maybe 10-15% perlite. I'm also transplanting a few times, so with the FFOF and fresh soil I don't think I'll be adding any nutes until flowering phase. So really, all I'm going to need is flowering nutes. I may need a small amount of grow nutes if I decide to veg a little longer.

Any advice would be much appreciated or just share what you've used and had success with!! Peace, LP:rastasmoke:
Advanced nutrients is your ticket.:thumbsup: google them to find what you would like to use. Hightimes magazine had an article of a guy in Wa. State whom grows 8-12 footers using advanced nutes only. Washingtons only MMJ site has his plants and exactly how he does it, his mo is k9hohriver. Take a look it's impressive...imp:
