Compiled September 24, 2016, by @Maria Sanchez​

Dear AFN friends!

As I've been getting back into the grow mode in the last couple of months after almost 20 yrs out of this scene, it's been wonderful to see the latest technology, strains and knowledge in the art of growing our favorite herb.

Lately I've been checking out the present state of nutrients and fertilizers around, in particular looking at those cool starter packs and kits that contain the essentials (and more) for beginners and smaller scale growers. I found that there are a huge amount of different options around, and I got a bit lost, flipping from online buying (like Amazon) back to the websites of the suppliers, and checking out the data on various products, then comparing.

So, since I was checking out all this stuff myself, thought to make a nice thread to help others, and let them save a whole heap of time. What follows is a single thread post per product (some suppliers have multiple product options), with a picture and present (Sept 24, 2016) prices along with product description all from Amazon USA site. Then, I've gone to the suppliers' sites, and linked in to each of the products that make up the starter pack / kit, to save you the time!

I've focused on packs / kits that cover all the essentials plus some other very important supplements, but have not put in things like simple 2-part A+B type products. So, most of these have the usual sort of Grow, Bloom / Flower, and Micro nutrients, and then maybe some Starter / Root, extra Bloom, Calcium and / or Magnesium (Ca-Mg) supplements, plus more.

This thread is not a test review of the products. I haven't used any of them, it's just to put all this kind of stuff together, and link to the products at the original site, to save some beginners and small scale growers a lot of time searching around to compare. Though I do hope to go with one of these in my next grow. I've learned a lot just compiling this info, so hope it can be of help to others. Hopefully some experienced growers who have purchased and used through a full grow (and maybe can compare with other nutrient ranges / products) can provide some valuable feedback.
