Help with choosing Nutrients

[xtsho]

I grow in coco and feed a 3 part which is just a micronutrient blend, calcium nitrate and MKP. Really similar composition to using Jacks, Masterblend, etc... Inexpensive with great results. You don't need an expensive cannabis specific nutrient. The plants just want NPK and micros. They don't care if it comes in a fancy bottle with a cool name. Just look in the Marijuana Problems section and you'll see people having all kinds of issues using cannabis specific nutes. I don't recall hardly anyone using Jacks or a similar product having as many issues.

Thanks for the info, but where can I find a guide or charts of NPK and micros quantities for each stage?

I don't mess around with worrying about any stage other than veg and flower. I run the same thing in veg and flower with the addition of the MKP during flower. I find those cannabis specific nutrient charts to be ridiculous having people measuring out different amounts of this and that for each week. You don't need to do any of that. Just run a balanced nutrient from start to finish.

If you want to figure out the NPK when combining nutrients with different NPK's this formula can do that.
