Combining Nutrient Lines

[BigBudsB]

i finished a hydro gro not to long ago with

canna a&b
canna boost
canna pk 13/14

and i had verry good result, sand i know if it aint broken dont fix it but theres so many things to try. i was wondering if any one had tried the following or has expert undertsanding of nutrients. this time round i was thinking of using the following

canna a&b
canna boost
AN big bud
AN overdrive

iv done a fair bit of research obviosly all of it conflicting so thought id ask on here and see if anyone had any more info. one of the things i was worried about knocking the N-P-K ratio out. any info would be great also im open to sugestions so feel free to rip the idea down and use something comepletly different.

PEACE

I like to stick to the same lines I'm fairly sure nearly all the products are the same thing in a different bottle at various prices.

I can vouch for canna A&B used along side AN big bud/overdrive. Your buds will be big, sparkly & stinking. I also use House & garden bud XL with them too (for flavour)

I literally could not be happier with my smoke

Hi BigBudsB,

I mix my nutrients but not quiet in the same way, I use canna coco A&B in veg as its a great nutrient containing humic acid, so combined with Rhizo or Superthrive, gives the plants a real nutrient burst in veg

In flower thou I change to Ionic Coco bloom nutes, as I found the canna nutes are too high in nitrogen. I have done this for the last 3 or 4 grows, and noticed a significant increase in growth and yield, from the plants.

A lot of the stuff you buy off the shelf thou, that often promises to be a miracle grow formula, are little more than snake oil. I have put a link below to a site I use a lot, as there is some really good information on there. The site also breaks down the elements that feeds use, so rather than buying pre mixed formula's, you can tailor the feeds to your plants needs

I used information from this site to make my own foliar sprays and I now tend to spoon feed my plants what they want, when they want it, but using the Canna or the Ionic as a base nutrient.

One thing to be careful of thou, is if your growing in coco or in hydro, if you use organic soil nutes, the molasses it contains will lock out nitrogen nitrate from the feed. I know this from first hand experience

You can use molasses in hydro, but its best to use them for the last two weeks of flower only, when a nitrogen defiencie is beneficial

Sweeet, do you have any journals floating about? and can you remember what weeks you used the big bud and overdrive and bud xl? from what i can understand house and garden bud xl is the same as canna boost. A friend of mine swore by it and used the canna rage. now iv never grown without it and am worried about removing it incase it effects the harvest. also do you grow in hydro?? sorry for all the questions but knowledge is power.

Peace

I use big bud from week 2 flower until 2 weeks before flush.
Over drive for 2 weeks before flush.
Bud xl from week 6 to flush.

I have 3 diaries on here where I have used this combination in NFT. My current run will too, when it gets to that stage

Like a few peeps have said not a problem mixing
canna a&b
canna boost
AN big bud
AN overdrive

Had problems mixing canna with the vitalink range..
When this happens the water gets a scummy white film on top.
