The smell would be a mix between pineapple and mangoes, or even a fruit punch smell. However, you can really only get a smell if it rubs against your finger.
This pheno was very sensitive to nutes and barely even grows during veg. I only fed her up to 180ppm and still got some burning. She really fills up those branches from top to bottom during the middle of flower to make up for the slow veg.
My next adventure is to build my led, so i won't be growing for a while.

Could anyone tell me why I can't see the pictures h/b has put up? Thanks. I'm a noob grower but have been reading this thread from the beginning. I myself have started my first grow using kindsoil and fx happy frog 50/50 with ocean forest month in and doing what I think is good lmao. Will try to get some pics up asap. Much respect btw h/b from the 20pgs I've read so far I can see you have a lot of knowledge on the subject.

The site that I originally uploaded the pictures to reformatted things and the pics were lost.
I still have all the pictures but I cannot edit old posts.

Thank you very much for the reply and the effort you have put into this comparison hb. My friend is a AN fanboy and has suggestedsstrongly that I use hg or AN but nah I'm reading past pg50 hav just bought today 1L of bloom grow n pret ekt with RR and roottech to start some clones off my first grow in veg now 1month n few days in kindsoil (hotsoil) from local company but grow cycle us crazy long. In my 3gal roottrapper pots veg is 2mnths I believe and atleast that in flower also usin 50/50 ff ocean forest n happy frog on top layer. They look beautiful but have twisted leaves at the end turning up to light on older fan leaves I've found it to be ph prob and am workin ok n calibration of hanna slim ph meter. Sorry for the long ass reply but of course u need the info to even under my sit and thats why I love this thread you've gone so in depth to actually show us all the right ways and I just wanted to thank you cause I'm a noob but I love plants of all kinds and have a house that looks better with alive plants verses dead lmao. But yes thank you homebrew you are awesome and I'm hooked on reading up and learning to look at what the actual plant I have wants!!!!

H&G's Aqua Flakes is great in hydro and super easy to use. In your situation, I'd just use Grow and Protekt from start to finish. If it makes you feel better, maybe an occasional 50/50 mix of Grow and Bloom during the last half of flower might not hurt but just Grow is enough to match/outperform anything AN is offering.

I stand behind HB. He turned me onto Dyna back in 2011 and I will never look back! Ebb& flow or drip system and Dyna you can grow lbs with ease! I have fp+,protect, bloom, and bennies. That's it keep it kiss and green

I've been using foliage pro from start to finish do you think the 3-1-2 isn't enough P during flower? Maybe use FP during veg and through stretch and then switch to grow?

In dirt/coco/promix, your plants don't need very much P. So to answer your question, a 3-1-2 NPK ratio is about as perfect as it gets.
I've run a side-by-side with grow and foliage pro as I used to LOVE grow from start to finish. Grow is GREAT from start to finish. Foliage pro is better though which is why I use it instead of grow.

Hello again and I thank you for your response btw its very nice and I'm grateful! My ? Would be if I'm running hotsoil would dg kill any microorganisms or any other good stuff in kindsoil (www.kindsoil.com) they do state you don't have to use anything extra as it won't help on ther site.
thank you for your time, patience and wisdom 
I have been reading up on hydro and ran across your thread its awesome even with out the bud shots 
but most importantly informative!!

Damn she's a beauty!!!homebrewer, post: 8352718, member: 231911"]Pretty easy stuff, huh. I'm doing a grow journal right now (https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/566752-classic-seeds-grow-journal.html) and they've really only been getting grow and protekt. I'm not saying calmag might not be needed for you, your strains or your environment, but I have yet to see a need for more calcium and magnesium than is already supplied by their base nutrients.
This is the most recent update, day 42 of flower and overall they're maybe 90 days from seed. I've never hit them with calmag but I do own a bottle, it's a great tool to have especially if you use RO water. This is a Thai and Columbian Gold crossed to (C99 x Romulan):
And some bud shots:

I would only use Grow or Foliage pro when you see that your soil is running out of juice. If it's a quality soil then you should be good for quite some time. Maybe the last half of flower you'll see some fade? At that point some light doses of Grow or Foliage pro will get you to the finish line in good shape.Hello again and I thank you for your response btw its very nice and I'm grateful! My ?

Ok and yes they said after 5-6 weeks of flower top dress could be possibly needed so I can use dg grow instead thats awesome as I'm using most of what's left of hotsoil in outdoor grow. Thanks once again on your knowledge and reply hb!!!! Lookin to get some pics on here of my 4 girls growing now to.
