lol, fucking SNAP.
nah, being on weeds means nothing, I just like to mention it because some people see it as a serious and legitimate selling point.
In all honesty I was a little disappointed with my last harvest. I used just the lucas formula and a little kool bloom and while the potency was good the yield was below average IMO. I'm going with the FULL gh line this round and I'm expecting to reach my goals

Dense canopy = key to yields.
I'm going to try to foliage feed and trim some of the fan leaves to try to improve yields a bit next time around.

what do you mean by dense canopy? just having the plants packed in there like mofo's?
I'm thinking about flowering in a week or two. Might keep tying them sideways for a little longer just to take up as much horizontal space as possible with them.

Good choice, like Inverted said there the same ones got more hype tho thats all. I too use Floranova and have since it came out, I started outdoors with it then moved to indoor hydro ebb&flow and now coir and its worked great. A fellow grower I kno uses AN with the same strains as me (since he cant clone I gotta do it for him) and his results are acctually slighly less than mine altho this can be partly due to the fact I have much more experience. But, IMO they have the best out right now.
Also, GH just came out with an organic line called General Organic, and im hearing great things of it, I plan to pick it up myself and try it out. One thing that cought my eye was in the line they have a Cal/Mag suppliment, given what we kno about them two in flowering (they use more at this time, and most nutes dont cater to this) I think this is great. Its on the shelves now if your interested in buying it. I always said what more can I ask of GH and BAM! they filled my long awaited request.

by offering you a product that a bunch of other companies already offer? What's the big deal about GH's cal/mag?

Nothing special about it, I use GH and untill now they dint have a product like this thats all. I only like to use GH stuff, sure I could have got it somewhere else but dint want to I like GH.
If someones plants died Id blame that directly on grower error, GH has good stuff.

well yeah duh, no nute company is going to release a product that kills plants. However, this thread is about which line would yield more under identical growing conditions

AN has had bad batches of stuff in the past. I've heard of two separate batches of Connie killing plants.

Been threw pretty much every nute line. I myself like list 1. I do like AN but have never found that they live up to the hype they like to create. When any nutrient is used properly none should be able to make a plant yield more cause all any nutrient can do is make the plant grow at it's best and at that point it's up to genetics.

Inside of which week are you trimming fan leaves?
I understand that you normally don't want to remove fan leaves, just wondering when you do it.

This isn't true everything green is photosynthetic except for woodier stems/branches, once you've got a large plant photosynthesis can be unhindered with some fan leaves removed. I usually remove a decent amount of fan leaves before the bulking weeks on a 9 week strain this would be end of week 6 on... typically speaking. This is to allow light to the lower areas of the plant which isn't necessary with all strains as some have minimal branching and narrow leaves that don't block much light.
This makes for less popcorn and the most marketable buds possible. I also try to take off the bottom most branches (2-3 of them) to develop higher branches or the main cola more.
