Cool poll!

I wasn’t going to post review, because I would have a hard time recommending due to cost. But I use Earth Juice. I do use an alternative schedule to manufacturer recommendation, but it’s just slightly different. For those of you that aren’t familiar, it’s supposedly organic.

I currently use the grow, bloom, catalyst, microblast, meta-k, hi-brix molasses , and supplement with hygrozyme and silica.

I think it works pretty well, but it it’s also a little more expensive than a lot of alternatives. Specifically the hygrozyme, which really seems to make a difference.

I really wish I knew more about the specific elements so I could compare. But the truth is that I found an alternative schedule a few years ago and stuck with it. I like it better than the fox farms trio, but I also put a lot more into it.

One of the the things that stands out for me, is that I rarely if ever flush my plants. I do go to plain water or maybe just the molasses for about the last 4-7 days without any harshness. It seems to be very good for plants, and I rarely see plant issues that are nutrient related.

A few things that are a pain, cost as I have stated. Also has very limited shelf life, and seems to need bubbled for about 24 hours to get pH to stabilize. I guess the air pump helps to get organisms active or whatever.

I currently use foxfarm trio along with their flowering 3, Open seseame and beastie bloomz. Havent gotten the last one of that group.

Am also ordering Foxfarms Bushmaster trio to try. The sledgehammer and the other two of that trio.

They are what I have heard good things about and been recommended to me.
Price helped alot.

I would like to try IGLMs grow nutes but just havent had the money and when I did, and needed nutes soonest, they had run out.

Since my choice of nutrients were not represented on this poll, I’m going to write my own review of sorts.

First of, I just want to point out that I always grow in soil. It’s easy, its natural and it works.

Anyway… my choice of nutrients are BioBizz. Its a 100% organic plant solution, which is made of all natural substances, not additives or chemicals. They provide a wide variation of soils, fertilizers and enhancers. All made of organic materials.

Just google it, and you’ll see the results some people are having with this brand.

I thought you can’t mix bud blood with ph perfect AN ? That’s what it says on the bottle. I was hoping to do that but stopped short when I read that.

check out their website they have schedules you can use if your in soil drain to waste hydro recirculating it’ a good place to start and don’t worry you don’t need all the additives in any product line

I use House & Garden base nutrients for soil and General Hydroponics additives.

I’m a big fan of both.:+1:
