Great thanks GMO. I had my heart set on coco top feed drain to waste.GMO wrote: ↑Thu Jun 24, 2021 4:24 pmi think @Josh may have been using this or similar (jacks)
looks like a standard salt based gardening feed ie top dress every 3-5 weeks and just water in as needed. recharge is a bit of sugar and some microbes youll get from the air anyways so save ya money
how are you hoping to grow?

Re: Rate my potential nutes
This answer makes me feel good . Thank you very muchTTL wrote: ↑Thu Jun 24, 2021 5:57 pmMegacrop will work great for you. Some use Jack’s because they say it mixes easier, but I think most of those people were using an older version. I use Jack’s myself. I wouldn’t worry about a PK boost until you’ve had a few runs where everything is dialed in and coming out really nice and consistent. People love Recharge. I use Tribus myself. Those bottles of liquid nutes are a waste. Why pay someone to mix some salts in water for you? Best of luck!

Re: Rate my potential nutes
I believe it’s just like mills nutrients where they have combo of organic and synthetic. As let’s take mills A, Start R and C4 they are organic and Mills Basis B, PK and most part there Vitalize is syntheticBtw megacrop is apparently half organic half synthetic but i have absolutely no idea what that is supposed to mean tbh
I’m now reviewing Athena to see if lives up to they hype and to see if worlth the money prob isn’t lol

Great info mate thanks. The megacrop has enough cal in it but just incase it needs bit of mag. And wow, so beneficials are redundant without a proper organic soil medium? Btw megacrop is apparently half organic half synthetic but i have absolutely no idea what that is supposed to mean tbh. I see organic as no till super soil style. Thats interesting af about the bennies with salts. Cheers
As for bennies well if your using mineral base salt ferts or chemical base ferts ( both same) then really i just can`t see point in bennificial additives cus everything is instantly available to plant as soon as you water in a fert mix, although tis a different story growing organically. Again as said you`ll get differing opinions on this bennies subject.
Where are you in UK or USA ?

Re: Rate my potential nutes
I never thought about it like that with the additives @2-Scoops. I do notice a difference using Dynomyco in side by side but what your saying is true.2-Scoops wrote: ↑Thu Jun 24, 2021 1:15 pmAny A&B will do you a dfecent jobby, one think im a big fan of is using ferts tried and tested in your own country on your water. IE: Canna A&B, Vitalink, Pant Magic, Growers Ark etc etc if in UK. Not thast it matters too much but i just know these are tried and tested ferts for my water and i never run in to any problems. If i was in Australia then i`d be using House & Garden and in States most of rest not mentioned. :)
The stuff you mention looks sound yes, i know a Yank guy uses this brand but its their dry fert range. I can`t see point in added magnesium from Epson Salts the A&B base ferts should have everything in for your plants needs.
Same with Dynomyco i mean whats point if your using mineral salts/chemicals for growing and watering plants giving ferts daily or every other day, its hardly a drought condition and yes i really can`t see point. On the other hand theirs a case for using them growing organically but your not. Peeps opinions may differ on this though.
