Advanced Nutrients?

I want to go all the way with my nutrients. I'm not sure what to get with the Advanced Nutrients brand. I know everything they have is great but what combination of their products works the best for a hydro garden?

Yes, I have also read that the Advanced Nutrients line would help in growth and yield of plants. Been scanning their website and on my next grow I will be trying the Sensi brand. Right now I am using the Stealth Hydro pre measured nuts, and are working well and from what I understand both of these are excellent for "our kind of growing"...

Good Luck and keep us posted!!!

Well, with Advanced Nutrients you will go "all the way" all right, all the way to the Bank to get some more money. And then make another trip for another load of cash, because that's what it costs to use AN's complete line of nutrients. When I used them I figured that it was 8 times as much cost as other lines of nutes that I have used before and since.

Is there 8 times as much bud?

Is it 8 times as good?

No and No.

But they will say so in their hyped up glossy marketing brochures.

yeah ain't that the truth. the only thing that I use of theirs is big bud as a final product. yes, you will have a good plant but it is not worth the price.

If you read between the lines on all the different brands of nutes out there, they all claim to do similar things, so wouldn't that mean that deep down they are all the same thing.

Some companies like to split those nutes down into more bottles for more profit and tell you that you need them all.

I only use grow bloom and boost and you know what, i get weed at the end. I usually get a good weight to watt ratio too.

would you say that i boughtr carbo load 10$ for nothing??? all it seems to be is sugar and water. or something sugary in there cuz it thick and sweet. lol

yup. don't get us wrong your trees will like carbs but it is not worth it. you will never notice the difference.

Well, if you ask AN about it, they will tell you that you need all of their other products for your CarboLoad to work properly. I understood that it was stuff to feed the oganisms in other products.

It's not that their nutes don't work, it's just that they don't do anything like their hype says, and they cost too much.

HTH

way too muchh that is

I bought it acording the hydro guy told me. (i just saw he was a stoner when iwalked in) and he told me it adds weight just as it says on the jug. so is this product going to do anything for me? Today im buying some molasses too

carboload works perfectly well on its own. it doesn't need any other product to work alongside it. You are confusing Voodoo Juice, which eats carboload to stay alive longer during veg'. AN merely advise, using a tiny amount of carboload during veg' to improve the longevity of the Voodoo Juice. Voodoo Juice can likewise be used in conjunction with other nute lines, and works fine without carboload.

When you buy AN, say 1 part, 2 part or 3 part, they are just nutes that work as well as other nutes. The rest of the stuff is just additives that when you grow in hydro improve the quality and taste of bud, and get it something akin to soil-grown bud. I almost have the complete range, and with every new product i introduce my hydro grows taste better and better Here's a snippet from High Times...

Advanced Nutrients

With a research team that would make NASA jealous, the folks at Advanced Nutrients test their products in Canadian medical-marijuana gardens and market their products as pot-plant-specific. This stuff is clearly not for growing tomatoes.

Their base nutrients are the foundation of any good plant-feeding regimen. The simple three-part system (Micro, Grow and Bloom), used in conjunction with a grower’s chosen additives, makes a perfect base upon which to build bigger buds. The two-part Sensi Grow A+B and Sensi Bloom A+B formulas provide unparalleled plant nutrition.

Products such as Overdrive and Dr. Hornby’s Big Bud, Piranha and Voodoo Juice are just some of the additives that will push your plants to greater heights. Other additives making a splash in reservoirs everywhere are Revive, B-52 fertilizer booster, Sensi Zym and Barricade, top products for soilless mediums. Toward the end of the flowering cycle, Final Phase is ideal for leaching plants of all salt and nutrient buildups. This reduces harshness and give buds a better taste.

Knowing that most medicinal-marijuana users prefer organic pot, AN offers a range of 100% lab-chemical-free plant foods, including Mother Earth Super Tea Bloom and Blended Tea Grow and Grandma Enggy’s humic and fulvic acids. Constantly searching for more healthy alternatives, AN has other organic nutrients just waiting to be cleared by the US Department of Agriculture.

As an alternative to the tired old chemical time-release nutrients (such as Osmocote) that outdoor growers have used for years, AN developed Heavy Harvest, available in spring, summer and fall formulations, which slowly feeds outdoor plants pH-buffered macro- and micronutrients.

Many grow shops refuse to carry the outspoken company’s line of nutrients and additives. They fear the heat of stocking their shelves with products openly created for cannabis cultivation. AN’s Web-site forums and technical-help phone line don’t shy away from the topic of marijuana, or the desperate situation some people face while trying to grow medicine. We find this advanced way of thinking refreshing. We’re as impressed with their straightforwardness as we are with their products’ results.

Wow thats good to hear. Carbo load WILL do something to my crops. =D

My experiance w/AN is that yes it is pricy but they have never failed to help in my persuit of great crops.I love their products.

me too, and the article is spot on where it points out that growers can choose their own additives. You don't need them all, but with each one you buy you will notice an improvement in your bud.

Carboload is the best product on the market for getting your plants added weight and sugar content.

Although, unless you live in Canada I'd stay away from sensizym. I use cannazym instead, from the Canna range (although it's worth pointing out that the Canna actually costs £2.50 more than the sensizym). You can also use superthrive instead of B52.

a british magazine with a guy name judge dreddy ithink that was his name.,he tested all the major nutrients and found that AN was the only one that was consistant with the ingredients posted,other companies were known to lessen the strength of there product,or waterd down if you will.but that was his findings,he may well have been payed off,but then he probably would of been sued.who knows.

No, he's spot on. The guys at my hydro store are always doing experiments to see which nutes are worth the money and which are not. They stopped stocking sensizym because (although it used to work really well) it's for some reason stopped being as good. I surmised that it must have something to do with the shipping, maybe being left in containers for too long...

Either way, in the experiment they did, Cannazym came out on top... in fact, the sensizym hardly worked at all whereas the cannazym thrived.

A.N are also not that expensive. I use the sensi grow and bloom 2 part range. Last time I bought a n b bloom, they cost me £14 for the two, around $27.90... now I'm quite poor, but it isn't a lot of money. I nearly have the whole range... I'm only missing Humic Acid (through choice on this one, as it doesn't sit too well in hydro), Tarantula, and Sensizym (also through choice as I use cannazym). So really, out of the whole range I'm only missing Tarantula.

I love AN line of nuts
What I personally use is the Grow/Micro/Bloom pack, Growth Excel and Big Bud
Seriously some good stuff

btw before these nuts I was using Botanicare Pure Blend good but not as good as AN

I use the complete line of AN. Nothing can compete, I can assure anyone that. Discount Advanced Nutrients .::. The best source for Advanced Nutrients where I buy everything. You can't beat their prices.

Well I have about $300-350 worth of Advanced Nutrient I've been using on this crop and so far I must say everything is bad ass!!!! the Barricade is a bitch to measure though...I do have 17 different quart mixes of different nutes I've been using though not all of them all of the time though some for vegging some for flowering.... I think next time I might go something a bit easier though so I don;t have to spend 20minutes mixing everything..(typical lazy pot head here)
