Changing Nutrient brands but don’t have a clue

Post by The Irishman »

So I am currently on my third grow using Shogun Nutrients and to be honest I have mixed opinions on them. The product was recommended to me by a friend who I recently discovered was new to the product as well and has had nutrient problems throughout his grows. I have been doing a bit of research of my own and seen that General Hydroponics seems to get the best reviews. However there is so many to choose from I was wondering if any of you have any experience with them or what you would recommend is the best for me to use. I should have mentioned at the start I grow in recirculating dwc hydro. The general hydroponics has flora series, flora duo, flora nova and maxi series. I don’t have a clue which i chose lol I found this chart and liked the looks of this as it looks quite simple. Any thoughts please jump in

Hi mate,

I'm not a hydro grower. I've heard some say not to change half way through. I have done in soil before. Sometimes for the better, sometimes not. Best wait for a hydro grower or someone who has used those nutes for a better answer.
Never give advice. Wise men don't need advice. Fools won't take it.
