AN PH Perfect is out.

I saw this stuff advertised in Rosebud,the AN propaganda magazine I got for free from the hydro store,it made me laugh.It sounds like AN has the answers to all our problems!

People really hate Advanced Nutrients. Yeah it's over priced. So? It works very well, and is consistent. I get 15% - 30% bigger yields using certain Advanced products versus other competitors.

Why the hate on Advanced?

I have used almost every nutrient brand on the market, some with really good results. The reason I still use AN is for the same reasons many people hate them. Because everything is split up. I like to tweak or dial in different strains and see what I added that gave me better results. If everything was in one bottle, I could get good results but I wouldn't have any clue what gave me that result. I guess what I'm trying to say is, a lot of products on the market are cheaper but they don't let you tweak certain aspects of your nutrient regime. I have always liked to know exactly what a certain additive did for my crops, that way I know if its any good or not.

I do wish their products were a little cheaper, but I'm willing to pay the extra cash for now. In the end it's really not that much more.

Even though I use AN, I still believe it has a lot to do with the growers skill level. I see a lot of people buying their stuff thinking the nutes are going to grow the buds itself, LMAO. I just think a lot of good growers sell themselves short by saying the nutes did everything. These guys needs to give themselves a little more credit.

man I feel tarded, I have some Sensi bloom a and b that I have been using for about a year, and the whole time I thought I was using the ppm stuff. Weird thing is that everything still came out nicely without ph adjustment.


what is the direction/dosage on your most recent bottles ?

the new ppm/ph formula seems to be 4 ml per litre and nothing else , the oldest was showing the ppm chart on the back of the container if i remember well

So does anyone have a date when the ph perfect line will be available in the US?

I've been hearing that it's coming out in the next few weeks, but it seems that some think it's already out...it's all very confusing. And with the marketing push, it certainly seems like the hydro stores should already be carrying it. LOL

Soon I think is a good answer.

I know I'll probably be giving it a go because, like CASTLE said, I like the main little bottles that AN sells. I like tinkering now that I have a bit of free time. Though beginners should always keep things simpler, the rest of us have the experience to play around with things.

And for those who are wondering why the AN haters are out on this board, puhleez. These same guys are on every AN board, it seems, calling them names.

But have they used Advanced Nutrients? Nope. I say let them whine and complain. More for me. :thank you:

perhaps I wasn't clear....
The new recipe will have fulvic and humic included in the sensi a/b formula, from what their propaganda states.

Jeez, AN finally catching upto Canna and Growth technology by adding humic/fulvic to their base a+B, only 15 years later than the competition! lol

Yea I think they should've left the Sensi Bloom and Grow bottles alone label wise cuz it's looks stupid as fuck now! Big Mike needs to stop fucking with the labels man. I am interested in trying out Sensi Bloom A&B but don't feel the Grow A&B are needed how bout the rest of you? Also 16ml per gal is A LOT! I like the old calculator with light feeding looks about right with Sensi Bloom more along the lines of the H&G schedule I'm following by mjactivist.

Thing is all the shittier growers me and my buddy know that had problems with GH switched to AN using Sensi Bloom as a base and are killin it seriously as much as I don't want to believe it!

I don't get the add in Rosebud though comparing the 3part to GH and Sensi 2part to Canna saying More Expensive? You decide claiming the 4 extra additives in the bottles make the base nutes a $120 more but you get for free. But thing is yea they are the same in price but you have to use 2x as much AN unless they are overdosing your plants. I plan to test AN out when I upgrade to my new tent over summer so I'll have 2 2x2 tables under 2 400s and one table will be my regular line which is now H&G and I LOVE it and then the other will be AN Sensi Bloom, Piranha, Big Bloom and Bud Candy and we'll see if the hype is what it's said to be...

To be clear I do not hate AN.I am actually a huge advocate of their Iguana Juice,but seriously,have you seen that fucking Rosebud magazine that is owned and run by AN?The propaganda in there would make Joseph Goebbels proud.I have to laugh when they get so specific saying they can add 27% or 19% to your yield just by adding certain products...it seems like if you added up the percentages of how much all these products increase your yield you would be looking at numbers of up 100-200%,which I find somewhat ridiculous.

I have 2 of the mags and feel the same way however my buddy is raving about his pal who is pulling 2.5lbs a light with Sensi Bloom A&B Big Bud and MOAB and Overdrive so it's possible MAYBE key word MAYBE.. What's buggin me is how are you supposed to get a nice fade on a plant running 16ml all the way through? If it works cool but I think it's just to make you buy more nutrients faster cuz if you HAVE to use 16ml or plants are hungry they got you by the balls! Me personally I'm sticking with H&G... I am using Bud Candy only cuz I KNOW it works and it was tested by a reluctant buddy and he still uses it with Flora Nova and see's great results in resin taste color and yield so should do nice in my line up..

Now if only AN could somehow develop an additive (or a complete 24 bottle regime) that magically morphs my buds into cold hard cash without the hassle of trimming/drying; then I'd be set.

Everyone hates trimming anyways - can we just get direct deposit?

Of course I'd have to use some old shit so I still got something around to smoke.
