Greetings, When you say you use both the 16 16 16 and the 4 26 26 do you mean combined from start to finish? And whats the time frame for the flush period. Thanks

Most likely the 16 16 16 is used for veg nutes and the 4 26 26 for flowering nutes, not combined. Although I could be wrong, and the flush is anywhere between one and two weeks depending on what kind of nutes you use. Organics don't necessarily need a flush or one for as long, maybe just a week, but when you using chemical nutes you want to have a solid two week flush, which means just feeding plain ph water, no nutes.

Re: Sea Grow needing cal. supplement. The only product from Grow More relating to calcium was their ( Liquid Maxi-Cal High Nitrogen Formula) , It adds 10% more nitro., Wouldn't that be to much for the flowering period if you were already using the 4 26 26 ? thanks , just Wondering

i totally agree with that npd i know kindredspirit also likes it alot too

the 16-16-16 is worth getting to i swear when i got it my plants had smiles

Hollerrrrrrrr :smokebuds:

Definitely agree on the All-purpose 16-16-16 as well - it's well worth it. I stop using it once plants stop vertical growth and switch to straight 4-26-26.

I figured out the other day that in the 4 or 5 months (if that long) that I've been using Sea Grow, I've saved in the neighborhood of $150 - $200 compared to what I would have spent had I stuck with the Fox Farms trio. A little goes a LONG way. The 5 lb. tub of 16-16-16 and the 5 lb. tub of 4-26-26 will last me a year with my current setup and number of plants cycling through the chambers. That's $73 (US) a year!!!

Does anybody care to share the feeding formula that they use with Sea Grow? Would be very helpful and much appreciated!

5lbs will last a while for a personal grower.
Another easy line of nutes is Dyna-Gro - should be available in Canada. Don't need to get a big bottle as the smaller bottles will probably last a whole year. Better to go with both the Grow & Bloom but if you just want to use one - the Foliage is pretty damn good. All their nutes (grow, bloom, foliage at least) contain some cal/mag already (along with all other minor/micro nutes) but some strains do need a bit more supplementation.

Another good line that's easy, is the General Hydroponics Floranova series, again two bottles (Grow, Bloom) but also contains all the minor/micro. I know it's from GH but works fine for soil/soilless mediums too. GH also makes Maxibloom which is pretty much the Lucas Formula.

Flairform also supposedly has a decent one-part nute too, called GreenDream-1 - again one bottle for Grow, another for Bloom. I haven't tried this yet but I have heard it gives good results.

Those are about the easiest.

Things to keep in mind when shopping for nutes - look for products that don't contain urea and are also water-soluble.

Hey TBM I enjoy reading your threads as they're really informative.

You advice to avoid urea there...
I've got myself a fertilizer from a friends work with some good results: FertiActyl is 13-0-7 with humics and fulvics, aswell as some kelp micros to increase transportation - the N is all in urea form. I've been using it in conjunction with fish-mix to give my plants all sorts of N. Why do you advise against urea?
