If your light isnt very strong, then the best nutes in the world wont help. If your growing conditions are average at best, then all nutes will give about the same result. Its only when your room/tent is perfect and dialed in, that the diff nutes can actually be seen to be making any real diff. Otherwise if one run goes really well, then u will think it was the nutes u used that run that did it, not the near perfect growing conditions u dialed in for that grow. If people spent more money on better fans and stronger lights and even got a tent one size bigger-it would make more difference than the nutes they use. But thats not what u asked, u want to know what range that offers a million bottles is going to fix all ur probs right? Well it depends what medium ur going to grow in, coco, soil? hydro or DWC all have diff nutes that suit them best. I get just as good results with a 2 x 1 ltr bottle or part A and B nutes that costs as people do with these bottles from AN... How u use nutes also changes how well they work, use em wrong and its just expensive water ur adding then going to try and flush out.... Do u know why ur buying the full range and not just the basics? As in why do u need silica? or kelp or half the crap in there?? Why are u adding it to ur plant or are u going to blindly follow the chart and hope it works? If it doesnt work and ur using 6 or 9 or 12 or how ever many bottles are in the "full range" how are u going to figure out what the issue is if ur dumping all these nutes on it?? which one is the issue?? which one do u eliminate first to see if thats the one not working? I firmly believe in using the bare minimum nutes needed to keep plant happy, and using the strongest light u can afford to run or fit in the room. And then the cheapest nutes that work. Have a look at my blue gorilla grow- I did a massive write up on nutes in week 2 to fill the space as it was a quiet week. Ive tried AN cal mag. wont buy it again. Its weak- here in Australia we have so many better quality and cheaper nutes to pick from that are battle tested in the underground grow scene over decades of illegal grows and none of these nute brands would have survived if they ran nute lines like AN or remo does now and at their prices. How do u turn a profit or get cheap buds if u add up the cost of all ur grow equipment, running costs and wear and tear plus nutes and it turns out its cheaper to just buy ur bud rather than grow it?? Nutes are nutes. I can literally list a dozen of the top of my head that ive used and suggest, plus if I go look up the ones I know work but have not used but have seen friends or family use and get amazing results from, i can list half a dozen more. This suggests its not the nutes the grower uses but the grower who is using the nutes is what makes big chunky tasty buds. learn to grow with cheap nutes and grow well and U will see that these over hyped nute lines are just fancy labels on the same powdered nutes that are mixed up in labs all over the place. Ammonium nitrate is the same no matter what label is on the bottle, same goes for the potassium nitrate, phosphates and minerals and vitamins they all use the same shit my friend. Now the kicker is how I know this, well my cousin worked for Dutch Master in the warehouse here, and grew amazing plants with he nutes he got for free. I used em too, why not its free and had killer results. Wish I could still find it... Canna is good. But have a look at my diary for the best list of nutes. But it was when I worked in a hydro store and was mixing up the store brand nute mixes with powder nutes from a tub, and followed a set recipe for each mix. Just diff labels on bottles. lols. nutes are nutes, they all work well if used properly. So just get something cheaper is my suggestion. Or look at the Hy-Gen coco starter pack nute mix set. Im liking their range more than the other over priced ones mentioned but even Hy-gen is a bit pricey for my likings.

@Benzels thanks for your point of view, which is quite intelligent, I'm going to answer you paragraph by paragraph hoping to make more clear and get the right answer to my problem. I'm growing 4 plants in 3gal Smart Pots in an 80cm x 80cm x 160cm tent. 280m3/h extractor fan and 107m3/h inlet I'm using a 250W MH and 250 HPS with a digital ballast that gives an extra 10%. I'm considering transitioning to LED but didn't make that decision yet (I'm waiting until I can reap the full potential of these lamps). My growing conditions are 25ºC during the day and 20ºC during the night, humidity starts at 70% and lowers 5% per week until it reaches 55%, I'll do the Late Veg/Pre Flower at 55% and Flowering starts at 50% while the buds are forming and finish at 40% when the buds are getting denser. I use humidifier, dehumidifier, heater and fans, I also use a smart controller that I built it myself to guarantee that the perfect conditions are met at all times. I use BioBizz Light Mix, so soil. I'm not interested in using as many nutrients as possible, what I'm interested in is in growing AAA buds and saving as much time as possible. I use Advanced nutrients because they're pH perfect and that saves me lots of time every day. I feed my babies almost every day, half an hour after the lights turn on. I want to use the full range because I presumed they get the best diet this way. I'm no biologist and I don't have the free time needed to study this matter at those depths. My only problem with going with bigger lights is the spike in the electricity bill at the end of the month, I run them 20/4. I'm not interested in growing the cheapest buds, I want to grow the best buds. My only concern with my electricity bill is the police, not the money itself. That's a pretty solid point there but as I mentioned above I use advanced nutrients because they're pH perfect and trust me for me was one of the best decisions ever, it's so easy to water them now. I don't like to make a big mixture and then use it over the week. I mix and I use straight away, now imagine the pain of reading and correcting the pH of the mixture on a daily basis. Just to finish, I am no dealer! Just a very big enthusiast and I spend way too much money on high-quality weed. So I just want to grow it myself and save that money instead.

Organoman pretty much nailed that.. do not be sucked into this 10 bottle, 0 for a grow nutrient line. It’s simply compounds the plant takes up.. and there are something like a dozen essential macro and micros the plant needs.. I can grow top notch bud with GH flora trio and spend probably -30 (on the nutrients alone) to get pound of flower.. mainly cuz I grow with superior genetics in the first place. In my personal opinion, stay away from autos if you want density from your bud.. Light is very important too as pointed out.

None of the above! Depends on your medium, but I’m a salt/organic grower. Love floraflex full tilt supplemented with teas from cultured, and greengro top dressings with slf-100— been crushing in the flavor department. Point is—- it’s using other products to enhance versus a system

You need quality, genetically superior and stable seeds to start with. The best nutrients won't turn average plants into super plants, it is all down to the genetics of the seeds. Nutrients just allow the plants to express their genetics to their fullest. All nutrients will grow healthy plants if used properly, but unless the genetics of the plant are A Grade............ Try Sweet Seeds, their genetics are awesome and after growing for close to 40 years, they have become my "go to" breeder. Reasonably priced seeds, potent and productive plants that are easy to grow and get excellent results. Barneys Farm aren't bad either. After this, it is all about providing optimal growing conditions and if you are growing indoors, your lighting is your major consideration.
