I'm about to start my 2nd micro hydro setup, but I ran into a big problem when gathering up my supplies.... NO HYDROPONIC NUTES AVALABLE!!


I live in a small rural town, and have to drive over an hour just to get the nearest Walmart/home depot.

Neither have hydroponics supplies....... so I was thinking there had to be something I can use from the soil grow nutes? Any ideas, or suggestions? I could really use the help guys.


Normally I would just order some from the net, but It's going to take a couple of weeks before I can setup a new checking account in the town... I don't believe in credit cards anymore


Anything I can use to keep the babies healthy till I get real hydro nutes would be great

I have 7 babies rooting and will be ready to transplant this weekend.

OK to help my thread out a bit I searched homedepot website and came up with these possible nutes.....

Maybe slowly introduce a little of this... 4-12-4




Or maybe mixing a little bit of this slowly and keeping a close eye on the kids to see how they like it.



Since I plan on a Scrog... I could try some of this and start it off with 12/12 lighting...... LiquaFeed Bloom Booster


I know of a friend that does use this in his hydro, so I will be picking some of this up.


This is the only thing I bought and I gave the kids a couple of squirts in the bubbler set up while they root... they seem to like it so it was a good gamble.



I'm also picking up some of this, and will be introducing when transplanting to combat any stress.


I once heard that "if it's good for tomatoes, it good for bud"?


And how about any of the following........











If anybody could give me any advice or suggestions it would be great..... In the mean time I have everything else for a drip hydro set up except the nutes.... I would hate to go with a soil grow at this moment.... if anything I could experiment with a couple of plants and a selective combo of those nutes above...

Is much as I love to experiment... I would feel better about it if I had some bagseed to do it with.... but as of now I have 3 AK47s, 3 belladonas, and 2 chocolate chunks. Clones giving to me as a going away gift from a friend, and I don't want to lose them all.
