I use Bud Candy. I thought that was the one that had the molasses. But I wasn't sure if it was that or one of 'Mrs. Engy's' products.

Speaking of which, since you use Advanced. What do you work your ppm's up to during flower? I've been pushing it up to 1200 ppm, but that seems kind of extreme, so I am going to back it off to 900 to experiment this time. But any advice would be helpful.

You know, something just dawned on me. The water in my area is really heavy. It comes out of the tap at between 300 and 400 PPM. So when I say I worked my nutes up to 1200, that means I worked them up to fifteen hundred to account for all of the minerals and shit in the water here.
Could the heavy water where I live be causing the troubles I am having with flavor?

Sorry for the misunderstanding but I don't use AN's line, just the sweetener. As for the ppm's some strains like more than others. I tend to use 1200 to 1500 for most strains I grow. Which AN line are you using? Also which feeding chart? As for your question about your water quality, I'm not going to be much help, tho it sounds high to me. I've been lucky enough not to have tap water higher than 80 ppm, so I haven't faced any of those issues myself.
