i think the floranova are advanced nutes, but im not sure i use reg 3 part gh flora, micro and bloom. only thing is the amount they tell u to mix is just plain overkill, use lesser amounts but keep the same mix ratio. how much u say? u may need a ppm meter if u dont already have. sorry for the rant

I do not mind the rant, thanks for the help, I actually just went ahead and bought the Flora 3 part nutes and I also bought a bottle of the Koolbloom.

I will be starting my clones soon in the system. It recommends 1/4 the nute for the clones. Should I go lesser then that at first? I also have a ppm meter too.

I'm using the 3 part Flora system, and I manage my nutes using their online calculator:

GENERAL HYDROPONICS

It gives you the ability to control the ppm levels of your mix, and no math! For quarter strength nutes, I just use 2.5 gallons as the calculated size on my 10 gallon reservoir. For a first time grower, I'm very happy with the results. You can see them on my grow log.

Good luck on your grow!
