I would find it highly educational if you were to try this again, and hopefully figure out how to use AN to it's full potential. Every AN user I talk to says you really have to tweak with your recipe to get optimal results.

Don't trust AN feed schedules, they have never been acurate.
good luck.

My roommate had a buddy using advanced with excellent results, and wanted to purchase ALL the nutrients... His money, How could I say no.

Now, a year later, Advanced didn't BLOW me away with 10 times the yield or anything crazy, So, I want to calculate the difference, if any.

I'm having some Trouble deciding how exactly I want to compare.

So let me tell you the setup and my plans, I will be starting this week, and want to make sure all is done correctly.



I will be running three clones in Modified GH waterfarm buckets.

Each bucket will stand alone, I have drilled more holes in the top bucket and added a 4" flat disc Airstone.

The clones are almost ready for transplant, I will be running Sweet Tooth from a local Dispensary.

1 Bucket - Lucas Formula (Maxibloom)
2 Buckets - Advanced Nutrients

This is where I need some help.

I typically use hygrozyme and great white with my Lucas then add kool bloom, should I continue this... or JUST use the Lucas formula and nothing else?

The Advanced lineup:

VEG:

Sensi A
Sensi B
Mother Earth Tea
H2
F1
B-52
Voodoo Juice
(I use Great White instead of the Scorpion, Piranha and Tarantula)
(I use Hygrozyme instead of Sensizym)
CalMag
Was thinking about adding a Silica Blast like Rhino Skin

FLOWER:

Connoisseur A
Connoisseur B
Mother Earth Tea
H2
F1
B-52
Hygrozyme
Great White
CalMag
VooDoo Juice
Bud Candy
Big Bud
Overdrive
Final Phase


If Lucas comes even close, I'm going right back, all this expense and mixing is a huge pain...

Fuck, I had to go look at all my bottles to remember what I was using.










I want to make this Legit, so any advice would be awesome.

I will be designing my exact feeding schedule so that I can post it on here.

I am SO IN!!!!!!!!!!!! TaGGed!!!! Let's settle this once and for all brothers and sisters!!

Oh Damn I just read the rest.. Its all good bro. I'm sure you're a great grower!! I too used AN and I have to admit I've never had bud like that ever again but I truly believe it was based on genetics.

Been using GH ever since and I've had some weak bud and strong but again I believe this was based on genetics. A good example was the REZ-CD-IBL.. Strongest and best I ever smoked and it was all GH. Maxi Grow, Bloom, and Kool Bloom. Simple and efficient. Powders last damn near forever too .

Lucas formula rocks, but def with additives, something to pull some flavor out, seeweed, or something organic

Any recommendations on the amount of maxi bloom to use? Or shall I just follow the schedule on the back (1-2tsp/Gal)? Thanks for the great info.
