Old Reviews Hmmm No more Foxfarm here...what to use?

Yes the 250 ml pack after about 4 plants you will run out of B52 since you only get 250 ml and it's used the entire life of plant the vodoo big bud and overdrive are only used at certain times they would probably grow 6 or 7 plants depending on life span.

great, ran it next to Advanced Nutrients and it rocked! I liked it. I am currently running Mills. Also, the Techniflora and GH are solid as well.

Aye I see...kind of like the Foxfarm Big Bloom. It does seem like AN is a pretty costly fert in the long run?

Hmm maybe I am asking the wrong questions....what do you guys feel is the best bang for the buck in my list of availables? Remember its a soil grow.

Mills is what I have been using for probably a year now at least. It is expensive to begin with but
it lasts. The basis that you use all through the grow us pretty cheap when you buy it in the 5 L jars. They just
came out in the US with a new additive called Vitalize that looks like it is doing amazing things on my plants i have going now, but I am not sure as I have not grown those before. Anyway, the Vitalize is very expensive but you only use a very small amount and 500 ML bottle will last me a over a year. I have never had nute burn or lock out using the Mills.

Best Bang for the buck...General Hydroponics

House and Garden nutrients are fantastic. If youre lookin for a simple schedule though I strongly recommend Dutch Pro!
Right now I'm running Blue Planet and have to say it is really nice stuff. Gentle nutrient producing very healthy plants in a soilless blend and very straightforward schedule. Not to mention the reservoir calculate they have on their website.

@briman - The prices are indeed nice on GH products, which would you suggest from that line?

@bolio - I am still leaning toward soil for a medium for the time being.

Again thanks for the comments gents.

Ive also been checking out the AN grow line which is much cheaper than other AN stuff...is it not very concentrated? I do like the idea of Ph perfect.

all depends on your feed schedule. AN can burn them with the grow and bloom. The plant doesn't care where the NPK come from, just as long as it gets what in needs, when it needs it! The GH organics are ok, using them on my veggie garden with great results. Never ran canna on them. The GH flora series are popular along with the whole GH line. I have the whole AN line and it is superb, but the mixing of all the base and additives can be a PIA. For ease of use, I would pick a 2 part A&B base with a few additives and run with that, being in soil. Your dollar, pick one and run with it! No matter what nute line you choose, run it at 1/4 strength to start out.
