Looks like they just modified it to resemble Jack's part A (5-12-26) and B (Calcium Nitrate, 15.5-0-0).

I ordered a bag of the 3.0, down to my last of 1.o for Coco and outdoor soil.
Decided I don't have enough active brain cells for A+B let alone hydro, lucky I have all my fingers and toes for counting still.

I've been in the process of switching from years of GH Flora to Jack's, Calnit and MKP for a few weeks now. Today is the first day all of the plants will be on the new nutrients, and I'll be using the 18 or so mixed gallons of GH I've got left for the outdoor veggies that I've got rocking in 18 gal totes with Sunshine #4.

The Sunshine#4 is nice, low prep multi purpose mix. I'm using it for the first time, love it.
Add a bit of coco and run it like hydro, flush it with light nutes for seedlings, just use it straight, works either way.

I have gone back and forth over Jacks/ MasterBlend/ Mega A+B, all 3 are better than Mega 1 part. Had the A+B in the cart twice...
Just didn't have the time this summer to mix, measure, think, learn, remember, record what i was doing different.

I orderd a 1/2 skid of the new MC and will see. I have a customer who is getting 2lb+ per 1000W Gavita with MC v2 this is with 30+ lights He's taking 17 bags so will see how it works out.

the new mc version or the 2 part? Im trying to see if the 2 part would be good for me because I just want something that's more close to jacks might even use the new version of mc if I should idk. might keep it simple and just use a and b.

I only ordered the 1 part as that's what I've been selling. GL mentioned the 2 part but will see review first. I might order some and do a giveaway just to get testers. Only problem is atm is tying up $1000's into a new product when I can get Jack anytime I want locally with no quantity requirements. If GL 5-12-26 works better than I would switch to selling/promoting it more.

What issues are you having? I have a customer who is running 30+ lights (Gavita 1000W) using MC and some GH/Botanicare additives and getting 2Lb+ dry per light.

the plants like it its just I get a sediment at the bottom of my res, and it just really likes clumping up in the bag. but in general not having a problem with it.

The clumping is because MC is quite hydroscopic and will absorb moisture and turn into a brown sticky turd. Put in into ziplock bags and into a sealed container and it'll stay normal.

Have you tried disolving it in warm water first?

before I put it in the res I usually get a 3 gal bucket and do like around I would like to say around 85F (29C) u think its not warm enough I don't have a problem with it clumping its just a lil bit of it. and just wanting something I can use almost all around flower if u get what I mean. idk not a horrible problem just wanting something that is more good for that situation. With my current MC I have to use a p with it and some other things to help balance some of my strains out.

Sucks they're only selling the big bag

The 2500g one just to try the new formula

Not really low, but just ordered a bag to try the new formula. No plans to switch so it'll all get used eventually.

Bye bye white balls.

Hot water definitely is a must.

Used Tidy Cat litter containers work pretty well for storage too

I did the same thing.
Been using Gh Flora forever in the Lucas formula.
Thought I would try something with fewer ties to big agribusiness.

I ran a crop with the Megacrop 2.0, MKP, MAP, Cal/Mag and Silica.
I didn't care for the results so I'm back to the old routine.

I do like the Megacrop in veg just doesn't seem to kick it in flower for me.
