I can't think of a nute I haven't tried to be honest with ya. I like the three part nutrients but found that I get just as good a results with the Nova. I like Nova cause it's one of the only one part nutrients that seems to handle all the nutrient needs the way I like. Plus the ease of a 1 part nutrient makes it kind of nice.
As far as nutrients that I've seen better results with I really haven't seen any. I'm not saying nova is better but it's as good as anything I've seen including the advanced nutrients Connoisseur line.

That is exactly what I thought and needed to hear.
Wow. Yeah I really like the simplicity of a standalone nutrient system. Especially because it's not REALLY expensive, at only a few more bucks than 1 of the 3 part systems I was debating.
Go with the Nova line man.

Then why do you need me to send you nutes???
I thought I wasnt going to have any money to buy them, but I recently got some money. You dont need to anymore if you dont want to. But thanks for the offer man, it would have helped me out a lot.

here's my main thing though; the high levels of phosphorus in GH nutes can't be that good for you. They have some of the highest P levels in the business, and elemental phosphorus is extremely reactive to the point of being downright explosive. I've heard reports from people that reducing their phosphorus levels in their feeding regimens significantly improved flavor while decreasing the harshness of the smoke and pulmonary irritation.
Do you think there's anything to that?

Did you copy paste that from another thread because I swear I have read that exact paragraph, word for word.
Well then do a long flush I suppose. You can use MG soil and nutes as long as you flush the hell out of it.

ahh yes I remember that thread very well. I loved that test!
but in this case I just mean phosphorus in general, whether it be organic or not, is just supposed to be bad for your health. I suppose you could argue that the plant will never uptake more than it needs regardless of how much is present, but I've heard a bunch of experienced growers claim that excess phosphorus makes their smoke much harsher

lol Oh man that Maneater bud that I smoked was harsh, but only in the sense that it had so much resin on it that it was like smoking hash hahah
It was smooth and tastier than fuck, but gave me that "THC burn" I call it, and that only happens with the best of the best I've smoked.
I can't wait to see how these plants turn out, I already peeped some trichomes and they have barely even begun producing calyx's... 
gonna be soooo frosty I can't wait, I've never grown a plant that was all that frosty.

Well I just got done going to my local hydro store. That place is fucking sweet I'll tell you what  . He had about 400 orchid plants there. They were beautiful. Also I picked up a bottle of Floragrow and a PH test kit with PH up and PH down.

Magazines for the commercial hydroponic industry are some of the best places to get ideas for your garden. Much better then shit like high times and crap when it comes to growing.

Yeah if I had some more money, I would totally buy a lot of the shit in there. I think I found the reflector that I'm going to use. Unless you can find me a better one/cheaper one Magash.
