Stormy...Well it look's like we vhave the same basic concept after all. Thanks for the reply.

good info shared...yeah calmag+ is a wonderful thing.

I have been wanting to try 3-part and say just superthrive or LK...but I can't see not using Hygrozyme either...

I was going to ask why you couldn't just add your nutes only experiment; Then remembered that you use ebb and flow(one system); right? So, you can't do s-b-side...Why don't you rig up a small e and f for the experiment

I might try a dwc s-b-side, just to see the difference, one time...I have penty of klonz, to experiment with...Just got a NL2 mum to go with my mistyblue mum...1st try at rooting NL2...later.lw

Which would the experts use, and why.

I'm guessing you're talking about the Flora series versus AN's 3-part?

It all depends on what experts you're talking about.


Experts trying to test how feasible it is to grow veggies onboard the Space Shuttle? They use the GH stuff.

Experts trying to grow colas the size of footballs? They buy Advanced Nutrients.


I'm not saying that the Flora series is crap, don't get me wrong.
I'm just saying that just because a Ford Focus kicks the crap out of any Eastern Block car any day of the week doesn't make it a great car. I got a Honda that's old enough to buy beer that runs better than a brand-new Focus. It doesn't make the Focus worthless. It just means I'd rather own something else.

You can do worse than GH's Flora Series, but you can do better, too.

I use AN in a passive hydro system however my hydro guy provides mixing charts for a much lower solution concentration than recommended by AN. Also it is nutrients for two days and water for one with 3 to 4 times the water poured through for a flush every two weeks. He has designed a seven and nine week flowering charts. I also use a bud booster that he makes himself for the final five weeks of flower. He also recommends using Final Flush for only one day after two days watering and then just straight water. By using this method my bud is as sweet and smooth as can be Vaping or smoking and the harvest is getting better this time around hitting pretty much 1 gram per watt every two months running 1 1000 and two four hundred watt MH with solar max bulbs. A really nice strain from www. I decided to go with an easy grow to start so I started with the feminised Mazar and it is a real cracker jack of a medical strain and allowing it to ripen longer just makes it stronger I harvest at 50, 58 and 65 days and you can certainly tell the difference with strength at 50-58 days you can function nicely as an all day smoke the sixty-five I prefer to stay home. One last word before I finish but my master grower who has guided me through this wrote this on a piece of paper and it's posted above my bench "If you want to fly high let those plants go dry" I let mine dry out at least once a week and they are a happy bunch oh yeah and Calypso music they love the Harry Belafonte.
