I started with Fox Farms liquid nutrient line (FF Trio) but switched to Roots Organics dry nutrient line about half way through my last grow.

I can’t really speak to whether the Roots Organic is better or not because I switched part way through the grow. Buds were about the same on the half of the plants that stayed on FF Trio. My next grow will be Roots Organic from start to finish, that will be the true test.

I should mention that I grow in FF Ocean Forest soil which has been augmented with worm castings and perlite. I also use quite a lot of Epsom Salts in my soil as well as my water.

It’s all good brother. Appreciate your time as well as others whom posted comments

Just a hair under 100$’s

5-12-26 Part A
Cal Nit Part B
7-15-30 Finish
Magnesium Sulfate - Epsom Salts

Looks good?

You don’t need all that other stuff. Just part A part B and pick up some plain epsom salt from the store. It’s only like $5 at the grocery store

I second what BobbyDigital is saying.

The finisher isn’t needed.

Flower booster in the first few weeks of flowering is optional. I use FF bloom booster for that. (Cha-Ching I think it’s is? 0-45-50)

If you shop around you can probably find better deal on 25# bags. Average cat doesn’t need thst much, but cheap is cheap lol. I paid $100 shipped to door for 25# of both 5-12-26 and 15-0-0. Then grabbed 14# of Epsom from Sam’s club for $10.

I am surprised no one has mentioned Advanced Nutrients. I just switched to its OIM line that includes Iguana Juice veg & bloom, Ancient Earth, Sensizym, Big Bud & Bud Candy, Mother Earth Tea and Nirvana. I am only a couple weeks into the grow and have not needed any nutrients. I will know more in 4 months. I had used fox farm trio this past year.

FoxFarm nutrients are * Not sold in FL,HI,IL,MN,MS,OK,SC,SD,WI

I tried to make this purchase a few months ago and had to select a Different seller if I wanted it at a higher cost. I opted not to visit my local hydroponics stores and purchased the Humboldts secret instead

I switched to jacks for my current grow. Love it so far!

@beardless I was thinking of getting AN OIM but I’m using a amended soil and wondered if it was worth the cost. Sunday marked week one of flowering. I need to act soon.

I just cracked open the Iguana Juice Grow and Sensizym and gave them their first dose. This is my first experience using it so I can’t quantify the value. For me it was the reputation of AN, wanting to move into an organic product and it’s ease of use. For now, that is where I am finding its value. Hopefully, it will also show up the jar as well.

That’s what I was thinking do it because of the rep and just spend the cash see what happens. They actually guarantee money back so might be worth it just for that alone.

I’ve used Dr Earths for a good while with good results, but recently have tried my luck with coco on part of my grow, and haven’t gotten the same results that I’ve had in potting soil, or when planted straight into the ground. I saw some guys on here that were high on the Jacks, so I just bought fifty pounds of each for my coco grows.
