Changing nutrients??? Feedback please!
sanibelislstarted grow question 3mo ago
Looking to make my life easier when it comes to ph’ing my waterings/ feedings. Are Advanced Nutrients PH Perfect really ph balanced and how do people like them in general. All feedback is appreciated! Looking for something stable to use with AC Infinity self watering bases.

Nutrients don't get any better than Advanced.Iv been using them for over 15yrs now.Using PH Perfect Coco for several years,their 3 part before that but I recently went full organic with their Iguana Juice.I don't use all their range as some of it isnt needed and far too expensive.Big Bud Organic was almost £40/50$ for 1ltr last year.Their are things a few things out there that are just and better value.I havent grown without a Root Booster for around 15yrs but I now use House and Garden Roots Excellurator.Even big mike from advanced talks about how good it is.House and Garden is up there with the best companies.Their dilution rate for roots is 0.3ml per litre so its great value.You only have to check my roots out to see how well it works and the saying goes,bigger roots bigger fruits.I don't think I will buy big bud again at that price.Iv gone organic so I will use Ash and Shit again maybe some Nirvana/Tasty Terps.It really doesnt get any better than Advanced.Its designed on cannabis plants when the majority is designed on the Horticulture industry to grow tomatos and peppers which focus on quantity rather than quality.

People claiming there is no difference between nutrient brands are talking out their arse.You only have to look at the ingredients for proof of that.One example is the Fulvic Acid in PH Perfect which makes all the elements more bio available and feeds the microbes.People will tell you the microbes arent important when feeding mineral salt based nutrients but that just isnt true .They do so much more than convert minerals.

Its not ecologically friendly to seperate each nutrient into 12 plastic bottles that are mostly water. Don't fall for the marketing hype, because you are already 90% shaped into the perfect zombie consumer already. Break free. Get you a nice compllete dry fertilizer you can mix your water with. Time to reclaim your brain.

@00110001001001111O is absolutely right your going to have to put only water threw at times or feed from the top every now and then.. Seams pointless now though. Maybe rethink this setup it's not making life any easier.. Good luck ✌️💚

pH balanced nutes are convenient. I haven't tested my reservoir in years, because it never changes in any meaingful way.
The plant selectively takes in various nutrients which will cause the pH to shift over time no matter what (without runoff). A pH balanced product may take longer to drift but without runoff it will happen. Religously getting 10% runoff with soilless growing method will 'reset' the rootzone each time and mitigate such potential for future problems. This is what causes faster than soil growth -- 100% plant available nutes maintained at healthy levels around the roots that won't impede each other. Not getting runoff essentially throws that benefit out the window.
The dynamics of an autopot eliminates the primary benefits of soilless growing method. It's a contradiction to use a soilless medium in a bottom-feed setup. Like pissing into the wind, it does the job but maybe not the best combination.

Yes the pH range is actually that it's a pain in the ass using pH pens constant it's probably the only part of growing I would call a chore lol.. Don't really bother with my soils unless nutralising ferment before feeding

salut. mon avis personel après tellement de tentatives sur beaucoup de marque d'engrais et pour moi le plus facile à utiliser reste biotabs . j'utilise 2 engrais quand je prépare mon sol . 3 autres pendant la végétation et 1 à la moitié de la pré-floraison. et je trouve que j'obtiens de beau résultat. je trouve que avec biotabs j'ai le moins de prise de tête
j souhaite une bonne soirée
