Nutrients Can someone please answer this for me

[oldtimer2020]

Hi everyone.
this is the first time growing with autos, got a good 20-30 grows under my belt with photos, not for a few years tho.
Going to run a big auto grow while get some mothers grown again.

Basically, im wondering what is the most basic nutrients for this auto grow i can use but still get results.
Theres going to be 2 nutrient tanks 460ltr airiated.
After something that can be mixed and left without tapering doses etc one for veg one for bloom?
Its my normal set up growing through wifi remotely so access to mess around with the nutes isnt possible.

Its will be on a drip system, when i was growing photo, the ph on the tanks were fine, due to size so that shouldn't be a issue.
Never touched autos before so please give us some input from experience.
Thanks

Check out the 1-part, solid fertilizer Greenleaf Megacrop.
The same exact fertilizer can be used from seed to harvest, with nothing else.

GenHydro Maxibloom has a large following, as does the JR Peters fertilizers.

megacrop or maybe look at the lucus formula that's quite easy to run i started off using that myself

Megacrop- simple- KISS approach, does what it says and does it well :smoking:

I agree that the GreenLeaf line is a good choice. The thing is the strength and ratios of the nutrients should change with the maturity of the plants. PH is still going to fluctuate even on the large scale reservoirs maybe not as fast but they will change. Here is a spreadsheet for the basic GreenLeaf line. You can change the volume and % strength and the grams of nutrients is calculated for you. I have been running about 70% strength for autos with good results. Download it here:

Most growers back off on the Megacrop the last 3 or 4 weeks to lower the N and substitute P-K to raise the PPMs but be careful there as I overdid it in my last grow.

Thanks I didnt know I was supposed to warm up some of their products.wonder of that's played any factors.

The Sweet Candy and the Cane Molasses dissolve better in warm water. In fact I use tepid water to mix all of the nutrients. If you use SI mix it into your tank at least 15 minutes before anything else!

Thanks other than the boiling part of the tepid water what's the difference between that and lukewarm?
