kapaistarted grow question 5y ago
Would appreciate any advice on any additional nutrients/supplements I should/could be using for my grow. Right now I just have the General hydroponic Flora series and I'm loosely following their nutrient schedule. Is this enough? Thanks in advance K

does it contain NPK, K, Ca, Mg, S, B, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, and Zn? if so, and in proper ratios and concentrations, you don't need anythign else :) if they have a data sheet showing elemental ppm, an anwers can be given.. otherwise it's a guess and relying on anecdotal guesses. I think they look healthy. i'd do some googling on that brand.. if you dn't see bunch of complaining about how you ahve to do 1/2 strength, etc... it's probably fine. you'll find all sorts of comments over the past decade about FF like that an dplenty of others. if a hydroponic system of nutrients doesn't provide it all and you must buy 2-3 other products on top of a 2 or 3-part system, i'd look elsewhere, as they are just doing that to increase profit margin... a good system allows you to adjust a couple things and mostly get whatever ppm you want out of each nutrient. that way you can adjust to the diversity that you will see in each seed you germinate.

I've heard good things about their series and it's a popular brand so just following their advice is the safest route. You may want to think about a bk boost or flower boost later on. 👍🌱And for next time a root stimulant too for the first few weeks.

An $80 led of the proper type can do more for your garden then a 100 dollar bottle from AN... Believe it.

yes and no I'd highly recommend using a product called uc roots. It acts a mineral descaler and helps keep a healthier root zone outside of that... The flora series will grow cannabis and you do not need anything else. You don't need Cal-mag at all in hydroponics most of the time. Some strains will tend to use a bit of extra calcium so sometimes having a bottle of cal mag on hand won't hurt. But calcium issues you see are usually most related to ph then actually calcium instake. Do not waste your money like I did on big bud or other said supplements. Work out how to feed a balanced feeding program and see your results. The most benefits I have seen are from more light.

That should be enough to get you through the whole grow. Anything else is kinda on top of. I'm doing Fox farm trio at 1/2 str ATM and that's it. Check out my first grow with it! Happy growing!
