DeuceDeuce is a potassium additive derived from sulfate of potash and Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed. ? more expensive of course than making yourself but ready to grow

AN products are weak, overpriced and way over hyped because it is marketed aggressively for cannabis only, when grower buy Kushy Kush I call it 'Paying Idiot Tax'.
AN isn't the only company selling watered down nutes. Botanicare Sweet Raw is just epsom salts with a little brown sugar -- plus a shitload of water.
Ever heard of a product called "Fossil Fuel"? It's only 2% humic acids and sells for $20 per quart! You can buy 2 lbs of soluble powder on Amazon and make your own concentrate for pennies.
It even happens with dry ferts! My local grow store sells RAW products, which are fabulous, but WAY overpriced. Why pay $10 for a few grams of potassium sulfate when you can get 5 lbs delivered for $16?
They only time I think it might be worth the money is when you are buying for convenience. For example, RAW makes a couple of all-in-one dry ferts that are pricey but very convenient.
Of course whether or not they are worth the money is completely subjective...

Its all watered down nutrients at astronomical prices, AN are just the most aggressive, someone put a link to nutrients that were mind-numbing prices like $150 for 250ml PK by some chancer company!

I couldn't take them seriously
They had products pulled from shelves that were cancer causing. Could never be serious about that company.

cancer causing? I understand many popular nutrient/additive brands have cancer causing ingredients. pesticides, insecticides, fungicides, miticides all come to mind. beware stay safe.

AN works good for me I've tried go box, Fox farms, Humboldt, dyna grow, and AN has given me best results so far.
It doesn't have to be expensive you don't have to buy every product they make you can get great bud with just sensi bloom alone

You don't need to spend fortune on AN line...
Sensi Bloom all the way. With Big bud and Overdrive. Three 1L bottles (actually 4 bottles, sensi bloom has A and B part), around 90 bucks and last for ages.
Spend 30 bucks for 1L Rhizotonic and you're done.

You might be selling yourself short. If you've only been growing for a year you're probably learning what your plants need and when. Getting threw 5 grows to make comparison's between brands in 1 year is unlikely even growing from clone with short flowering strains.

So, I grow in soil with Sensi Bloom and other additives (Big bud, Overdrive). What's best additive I can get for big healthy roots - and of course big plants?

Voodoo juice, Rhizotonic, Mykos, Trichoderma... something else? What? What do you guys use, is yield bigger?

Yesterday you were asking if you should get rhizotonic, today you're recommending it?

I use it for years. But pisses me off because there's no labels with ingredients on bottles. Have to try maybe something better, right?

I think it hopeless to explain water and nutrients and the difference between the two. A, you'll just continue to buy watered down nutes because of the flashy advertising and fancy stickers or B, your rich and don't care about money. Either way rich people don't know how to do this they want a quick fix just like everything else in their life.
Followers will continue to be followers just look at Facebook and twitter

Just like IPhone users also. I have a IPhone and I heard the same BS from Android fans. Ya need to stop with the hate. Division is no good dumbass. Ya all act like Amish people. LOL

Sry but after years of pricey watered down Advanced I did switch, it’s much cleaner and I’m having a lot of success with it.
