Agreed one can spend a ton of cash if I was still outdoors in ground I'd have no issue using peters they even have a bloom formula these days when friends want to give growing a few plants in their garden I still suggest it... I use straight coco or DWC these days I like how stable Canna Coco A&B are with my well water I bought their outrageously expensive Boost once but every time used it the girls developed heavy foxtails with no weight I tend to avoid all the nutes with all the extra bottles of additives

I like Cultured Solutions , ran it for many years coco and RDWC, very clean, stable easy to use at diluted rates. Recently was sent some big ass bottles of Athena Blended and I’m kind of stoked to give them a shot tbh. Ran AN for years too with great results but cost a damn fortune.

"Simply Professional" - samples packs for $8.00 (2 packs -veg/bloom) This nutrient has just about everything in it - have had great results - would list but therre are too many Have just purchased Humbolts County Own nutrient line ($70.00 (GrowGreen MI) should cost about $140.00) have use this manybyears ago when they offered their complete nutrient line for $15.00 . If one uses Terpinator and Purpinator no need to they have G-10, Ultral Snow Storm and Deep Breath which really perform. Note if one want a sugar based nutrient for taste/sweetness check out FOOP Sweetner by OrganicBioScience it has 6 types of sugar products (raw sugar, blachstrapmolasses, date syrup, raw honey, yacon syrup, sorghum syrup, mucscocado sugar, raw agave necture and coconut sugar) but it's only sold in 1 gallon size for around $50.00 (when a sale it goes for $30.00- this is not a commerical - but the resuts of use are excellent !!!

I've been using the Foop sweetener instead of mollasses and have seen good results. I add it to every watering starting in veg and increase the amount. Week 8 plants are getting 3 tbs/gallon. Ph'd to 6.3 It is definetly helping to keep the microbes happy throughout the cycle and towards the end the higher doses help then to finish. This and TPS Signal in increasing amounts as flowering progresses seem to be a great combo.

I've beennusing technaflora recipe for success since 2012. I tries to make the switch to other brands.... but if it ain't broke, don't fix it right? I did swap out a few bottles for cheaper versions.

And still using ffof soil since 2012 also.

Veg mix is Fox Farms Jump Start and Roots Organics Grow dry amendments. Flower is Jump Start, Roots Grow and Dr Earth Bloom dry amendments with a weekly dose of Nectar for the Gods Spartan regimen. Been doing this for going on 4 years with great and predictable results every time!

By muddle i mean it sort of masks the different terpen profiles. Granted growing more than 5 strains in a room can also do that, but the dried/cured finished flower smells were all sort of simular to each other.
don't really think that these additives cause that - maybe it's in the genetics of each specific strain- some have more/less of one specific tepene's. Terpinator just increase terpene's amounts - just my thoughts on subject ????

I grow in coco, and to date I've tried:

1) GH Flora Trio + CalMag, Armor Si/silica, Floralicious Plus and liquid KoolBloom in flower.

2) GH FloraNova Grow/Bloom with CaMg, Si, Floralicious Plus & liquid KoolBloom in flower.

3) FoxFarm trio, with GH CalMag. I used Beastie Bloomz and Cha Ching once & it fried my plant, so i didn't add those after the first try.

4) Athena Blended Grow and Bloom A/B, Cleanse, Balance/silica, and GH CalMag.

Of all these, FF trio was the worst for me; i was always chasing problems, lockouts or deficiencies. Athena was 2nd worst, although it seemed very soluble and easy to mix, it seemed like I had to feed SUPER high PPM to get good results. End product seemed less fragrant to me. I absolutely love the Cleanse product, sure i could probably make my own hypochlorous solution for cheaper but I don't care. I dunk every clone in it, & it has really seemed to make a difference in early vigor.

I, too, seem to go back to GH products. They're also easily soluble, even the chunky Flora Novas although i probably wouldn't use Nova if i wasn't top watering.

Floralicious, specifically, seems to do wonders for overall plant fragrance, even in early veg I'm getting some nice aromatic plants unlike with Athena or FF nutrients.

Of all of these nutrient combos, right now I prefer my #1 group listed here ☺️?

not a finishing formula, but ive found foxfarm products, mainly tiger bloom and the dry stuff, to basically override/muddy everything it's fed to. could have a mixed garden of 40 dif strains, they all smell and taste near identical. insta-cali lol
