The best nutrients for soil

[totalgearhead]

Hi guys
My plants are 3'' tall now.I've been feeding them with some Bonsai nutrient solution with 4-6-6 (vitamins and micronutes included).They seem to respond well to it but I want to swich to the real deal.
I've got a list of different nutrient brands but I can't decide wich is best.
BioBuzz
Canna-Biocanna
Hydrogarden
Atami B'cuzz
Earth Juice

What to pick,what to pick?

I've never used any of those,can you get fox farm nutes?5-1-1 fish emulsion is easy to find and a great vegging fert

 

[Guest]

if i grew soil it would be organic completely...organics is about bringing life to the soil...but i grow hydro so i use gh nutes lucas formula...

I find Espomas Plant-Tone to work well. It has every nutrient a plant uses so plants grow green and healthy. It has everything but lime so adding some would be smart. It's fairly cheap too. I got a big bag for like $8 at Lowes. It's good for outdoors too.

None of the above!

Homemade guano teas for me when messing with "dirt".

Botanicare PBP for hydro.

Welcome to the International Cannagraphic Forums

Welcome to the International Cannagraphic Forums

Is this your first time growing?
Those are all well made nutrients and will work well.
A little bit of easily obtained Fish Emulsion and some seaweed extract works quite well in soil...why just stand back and watch them little monsters vegetate away, but were gettin into organic sourced nutrients...
A quality chemicaly charged fertilizer for soil huh, lets see...
The first time around the block with soil I would suggest for an excellent flowering stage nutrient source either "FloraNova" or "Pure Blend Pro for soil" in the interest of keeping it very simple nutrientwise while also adding the high likely-hood of productive and rewarding results, assuming the plants other needs are also being met.
There is a search function here at the top of the page that if you click it you can go to the advanced search and search out past comments by product name on specific products.
So perhaps search and read, you just may become amazed by whats already been shared by others in past posts.

Welcome totalgearhead

Ive been using the Canna range of nutrients and can highly recommend them:

You can see some results i have had with these nutes if you follow the link to the chronic/bubblegum grow in my sig.
Havent used pk13-14 yet but plan to do so in my current grow when the time comes, ive heard great things about this additive...

BioBizz are great nutrients too, as are most of the ones that have been mentioned, its just a matter of trying a range out and deciding if you like the results

Happy growing!

Thanx guys.I really apreciate your help.
But I live in Europe and 99% of the brands that you are talking about here are not available to me.The list above contains some of the brands that I can manage to get my hands on.
Here in Europe the list is very short for articles that we(home growers) must have

 

[totalgearhead]

Tokabowl. This is not my first grow.I've grown some Afghan#1 outdoors using whatever nutrients I could get my hands on.I must have used about 4 shitty brands,one was lawn nutrient(ha ha).
I really like that scheduler for Canna.I think I'll give it a tryI've seen a movie where these guys were using HESI Nutrients.They come in complete packs too.

Hey TGH welcome aboard the grow boat I use Fox Farms 3 part and some additives like Floralisious Plus, Liquar Karma,Sweet,Ca-Mg Plus,Pro-Tekt and Worm Tea for folage spray. I have heard that all those nutes that you listed are good, just grab some grow juice and some bloom juice and you'll be on your way. As you go you 'll find more junk to buy(if your like me) when ever something new comes out it seems I have to try it. Always looking for the bigger better tasting meds. I also have a full line of AN products but Im boycotting them. I just bought some Floral Nova,Grow and Bloom. Now this stuff seems concentrated .The little bottles that I got are HEAVY as hell and it says it takes very little per gl. Well I how my rambeling helps some.The search on this forum rocks so if you have a question give that a try, I found tons of good info, plus I believe that theres a link where someone was able to get OC's fag thread and post it. So theres lots of info out there If I can help ya jusy pm me !
peace...

 

[totalgearhead]

Thank you SkunkyDemon
I'll give it a try,mate

 

[Tokabowl]

Yea the Canna shedule is well usefull (although they seem to think fast vegetative growth is done under 12/12 lighting lol )

 

[totalgearhead]

Canna is def. on my list this year.
This stuff is great and I can buy it online

 

[Guest]

I use DNF now, and its OK.

Plan to move to either foxfarm or AN.

 

[totalgearhead]

What is DNF?
Must I remind you that I'm in Europe?
There's very limited choises here

DNF is Dutch Nutrient Formula.

I have friends in Europe... London - with no resource issues.

[totalgearhead]

Hey jumblyjoe.
Where do your London friends get their gear from?
I can use some other links to grow shops & stuff.

 

[Tokabowl]

Hi total, heres a link to a uk growshop directory, loads of them are listed, maybe you will find one near you:

Growell and Greenfields Hydroponics are two good online stores that are worth checking out, Hydro Hobby also...

That's not true at all actually

I'd go with Plagron myself, shouldn't have a problem getting hold of that :wink:
