:smoking: no worries jay, good questions in any case,...
This brands was popular back several years ago when the cannabis specific nute scene was a shadow of what it is today,...SeaGrow will work, but it's not optimal, or even a wise choice anymore IMO and experience with it... Cannabic nutes have a better more optimal balance of NPK, secondary nutes (like Ca, Mg, S, etc.) and micronutes (metals like Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, also Boron and Mo, etc.).... 16-16-16 is a shotgun blast of NPK, too hot, not in balance for the specifics that work best for cannabis' veg' stage; Bloom is the same, very hot at 4-24-24....(I treat Seagrow bloom as a so called bloom booster, a high PK content supplement) Again, it'll work, but for the money, and the ridiculous size of the tubs, there's better... Easy, few part nutes include FoxFarms nutes grow Big, Tiger Bloom, Big Bloom; Dyna-Gro Foliage Pro/Bloom, and a host of others... these are not expensive at all if budget is a factor, otherwise it's a wide world of choices now! poke through the nute section here, and check you favorite growers here and see what they use... MegaCrop (Greenleaf nutrients, here also) all-in-one is a very good bargain, but many find it needs less N and more P for bloom stages, easily fixed by reducing the MC use and adding in another base bloom nute (Seagrow 4-24-24 is fine in this application)... HI Bud is overkill,.... Avalanche is not a nutrient per se, it's a so called bud hardener, help fatten and dense-up the buds,
theoretically,... I used it, but don't find it particularly effective....
Use Grow nutes up to the early start of budding, then switch to bloom nutes,... I also recommend you avoid
soils, they are often iffy for quality and pH balance,... Roots Organic original, or Royal Gold King's Mix are better choices,...
Other recommended things include a Si supplement, inoculants, kelp, humic-fulvic (BioAg Ful-Humix dry, 100g bag is cheap, lasts for years; read about h-f in the Reverence section, very good stuff)...
