Nutrient Showdown
    #389250 - 03/24/10 12:03 PM (14 years, 8 days ago)

Alright, The time of 12/12 is just around the corner for me and I'm completely out of bloom nutrients. I'm going to be hitting the hydro store on friday (15% off sale for spring! woo!) So I wanted to poll some people on what they think the best nutrient options are.  I've already discussed this with Koons so I know his stance (although you're more than welcome to come debate it publicly still!) but I wanted to see how the rest of the growery felt.

First off, money is not an option here. Both of these following nutrient lists will cost me about the same, so please don't discuss the financial ramifications of purchase. a $10 difference overall is negligible.

Option 1
General Hydroponics
-Floranova Bloom
-Floralicious
-Floranectar
-Koolbloom liquid and powder

Option 2
Advanced Nutrients
-Sensi A+B
-Big Bud
-Overdrive
BudCandy

I like option 1.  But it's just what I have used.

I'd like to see the advanced nutrients in action.

Can't wait to see which way the community will go on this.

At this point I'm preferring AN, I did lots of research before I bought nutes, and it seems like they hav the slightest edge. Keep in mind I'm using their 3 part.. Plan on moving up to the Sensi line next.

Hmm... I knew that's what stoney would vote... and I certainly like his results that I've seen on here.

For the record Koons agrees with you stoney :smile:


for some reason AN just gives me a chubby. And for no reason other than I've been brainwashed by all the advertising and hype :lol:

they just look so awesome!

Nothing formal, I just searched and searched until my fingers were sore, looking at differents resutls.. We know there is always grower eorror, but it seemed to me the people using AN were a little bit ahead of the curve. Just my opinion.

I really wished I would have saved some of the pics and threads I found, but I didn't.. Mine are just barely 3 weeks old right now and under some flouro tubes, so nothing impressive there. Will keep you guys updated as I progress though.

Super Lemon Haze that just finished about a week ago.

Great smoke! Finally got hold of a camera..

Big bud is the only bloom "stim/fert" I use.

what are your base nutes? And how was the yield overall? looks like highly potent smoke :smile:

This grow was kind of haphazard. Base nutes ranged from pure blend pro to roots organics.. They did not get enough food because of various situations. All in all I'm satisfied, though.

Yield was a little under an oz for about a 2' 6" tall one main cola plant. No cropping or anything special was done to the SLH.

Working on the yield part..

In the end I'm a happy camper! My god does she smell of goodness and sticks to the jar!

Edit: You mention potency - Think clear headed giggles and focus with a narcotic body euphoria creeping in after about a half hour. Extremely uplifting smoke. Anti-depressant qualities indeed. Not super speedy or anxious, either.

I vote option one, but that's because I'm a converted GH slut now.  Guarantee you this, if you buy that small bag of Kool Bloom dry you're set for like 3 years lol

If you're not using it, I can also recommend the Snow Storm. At 12 bucks for the small bottle (which is plenty), it's definitely worth checking out.  It will fit in with whatever line you end up going with

I'm super excited to see the results of this!

I don't know where to take a stance though because I use products from both GH and AN. :tongue:

He's not comparing them he's just seeing who recommends what.

I'd say the GH option.

Basically because I personally like it a lot, and from what magash said, the GH line gets basically the same results as the AN line, but at a cheaper cost and simpler regimen, such as the 1 part FN series.

    #389559 - 03/24/10 07:52 PM (14 years, 7 days ago)

well, I've decided to go with GH for a couple reasons.

1st, I already have a bag of Koolbloom
2nd, I just talked with a GH rep and he's going to give me a free bottle of FNbloom, so that's like $30 saved :thumbup:

oh and coda, I've got snowstorm, but I bought it before they relabeled it so it's called PurpleMaxx

Good stuff.

Your reasoning should have been AN is a bunch of douchebags who know how to make nice labels and GH is tried and proven.
