Rate my potential nutes

Post by Ash »

Since its my first time im trying to not go for the billion bottle scenario im after something easy and effective. Has anyone used greenleaf nutrients MEGA CROP A&B 2part powder nutes? What are your thoughts? I was thinking of the megacrop and some recharge and thats it. Do yous think thats a good or bad idea? I would save loads n all coz its cheap. Very cheap. Oh some epsom salt aswell i will have that too. Would love to see some megacrop results if theres any. They also have a great website with a feeding calculator. Seems really newb friendly. :Stoned:

While ive not used them nutrients if its a goos a and /(base nutes) then you are fine running just them. I would recommend a pk boost for flower.

My fed consists of:

Canna a and b
Dynomyco
Canna PK 13/14
And another low ratio pk

you dont need 90% of what companies try force upon us.

Any 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. 8-)

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

If ya not bothered about growing organically and i think you said your gonna use a coco substrate them look for some A&B ferts that full weight chemicals, less will or can go wrong in your grow and tis much easier to learn how to grow nice plants firstly before switching over.

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 ?

i 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?

Megacrop 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!
