I want to write a guide on what salt based nuits to use soon. I also want to start a new poll so we can see who is the best out of the top brands. So, let me know here what nutrients you use. What range, what types, pk boosters, root boosters, the more info the better Smile

Dutch Pro, Advanced, Canna, Shogun. What ever you use, we want to know about it! Lets make a good informative guide for new growers! 

Thanks in advance for any input Smile

GH Flora Trio
Calmag
Diamond Nectar
Armor Si
Koolbloom (liquid to start, dry to finish)

Used in coco, seems to work well enough but I havent used other nutes to truly compare.

Seedling stage:

RO water, cal mg (to re-harden the water to a 0.1-0.2 EC), canna rhizotonic (1 ml/liter). 

RDWC (hydro): 

RO water, Impello Dune (Monosilicic acid), “Cropsalt’s” Nutrient line. No Bennie’s, currently using HOCI to maintain sterile grow (monitoring ORP levels to keep HOCI at the right level without adding too much !). Cropsalt’s EC 0.7- 1.0 depending at what stage of grow. 

Soil Grows:

TG’s supersoil recipe. 
water with re-hardened RO water (re-hardened with cal mg), impello Dune (Monosilicic acid). 
if the supersoil peters out, I use BioCanna nutes when needed in late flower (in which case I mix a normal feeding once per week). 

Honor is simply the morality of superior men.

@macky I'm about to try out Mega Crop One...I've heard good things about that company. I could do a kinda of grow diary using it for ya, see how that works out

Gonna need to sell off some stuff and get another computer first though. Maybe a couple of weeks out I'm guessing 

I will always tell you the truth, that's a promise
I will not, however, promise that you will like what I say.

Used to use GHE flora trio and some callmag in several recycling Hydro settups with good results over time,but it reqierd daily atention to pH balance tho, So now, after setting up a automated  drain to waste coco settup i switced to advanced sensi coco with the pH perfect, only a+b not even a litle calmag and it does just as good of a job with the pH staying stable for the 4-5 days my res lasts me (some drop in pH if the res is runing low some times). alowing me to Get away for a long weekend now and then atleast, so super happy with that and still Get good results with the girls 

advanced is a bit more pricy then ghe wher im at atleast, but not needing calmag (so far) makes up for it it a bit Smile  

You live, you learn, you grow!
You learn some more!
You grow better!

I should have answered once, when I got home, instead of twice! 

for my specific practice in RDWC. 

I start at the top line of the feed chart (they recommend using the ratio highlight with the gray line, maybe ok for something other RDWC/DWC). I’m going to round a little and speak in EC, since that’s a uniform scale worldwide. I use ppm in my logs, etc. 

so I start at the top line, and that gives approx.  0.7EC, then using the EC/pH charts in the Percy’s Hydro grow guides, I use the daily EC/pH readings guide me as to when to start bumping up my ppm/EC. 

during my last grow, I think I made it up to the recommended ratio (gray line), for about a week, then I was on the downward side of flower and started getting tip burn. I recall the EC being about 1.1

since they are dry nutes, proper mixing is essential, magnetic stirrers is one reasonable priced option, I’ll let it stir for half hour or so, and go do something else, so not labor intensive of time consuming (for a baby sitting standpoint).   

oh, one last thing- I switch from veg nutes to bloom nutes 3 weeks after flip.
