    Advanced Nutrients - pH perfect Sensi Grow: does it contain iron and other micros???

    I heard AN pH down is pretty concentrated, but so is GH for my purposes, and it seems pretty stable and has a good shelf life, too (I had some from 7 years ago that still worked just as good before I spilled it all over my bathroom accidentally during res changes). AN's cost was about double at...

    Advanced Nutrients - pH perfect Sensi Grow: does it contain iron and other micros???

    Probably right there with my use of lemon juice as a pH down I'm realizing, but urea does leave a residue according to a lot of people. I'm thinking the residue could promote bacteria/mold growth that could be out-colonized by Great White, which is a related but totally different product than...

    Advanced Nutrients - pH perfect Sensi Grow: does it contain iron and other micros???

    Random question for all you DWC bucket folks, do you prune the fan leaves that get in the way of you pulling off the lid to the bucket? These are constantly getting in my way and some have gotten cut off accidentally when I've put the lid on them and snapped it back onto the bucket.

    Advanced Nutrients - pH perfect Sensi Grow: does it contain iron and other micros???

    Well, after a lot of suggestions on a lot of sites about AN's tech support, I called them today to ask the question. They said that due to labeling requirements, they can't list every nutrient, which seems a little odd to me since I thought this was only an issue in certain states (i.e...

    Advanced Nutrients - pH perfect Sensi Grow: does it contain iron and other micros???

    Thanks, Beuffer420, for the info on AN's Euro site. Much better organized site and info compared to the laughable US site. However I don't know if AN really has all these ingredients and nutrients in the product I bought. AN was found in Oregon to have mislabeled the content of Big Bud (the...

    Advanced Nutrients - pH perfect Sensi Grow: does it contain iron and other micros???

    One last thing is that on the pH perfect nutes, they don't seem to work too well at low doses (1/2 strength, for example, may need pH adjusted in as little as 1-2 days).

    Advanced Nutrients - pH perfect Sensi Grow: does it contain iron and other micros???

    To answer the question from iSmokealottaweed about what other additives I'm using, I've been using the AN Voodoo Juice and B-52 (all of the recommended AN nutes for vegging) as well as some Great White. The AN recommended feeding schedule gives me around 1000PPM, which seems high, and I've...

    Flushing Hydroton regularly in DWC system

    Thanks for the info and suggestions. The oldest of my 7 plants is about 5 weeks old, the youngest is 3 weeks (from germination). I haven't flushed the medium yet, but going to start next time I change out the reservoir, probably using just one gallon of pH adjusted tap water (no RO system in...

    Flushing Hydroton regularly in DWC system

    I can't seem to find any good info on this topic on any forum site. In a standard 5-gallon DWC system (not a recirculating system), should the system be flushed on any regular basis by pouring water (or some kind of flushing agent mix such as Clearex) over the hydroton and the net pot? I'm...

    Fox Farm Solubles

    I used these according to the FF feeding schedule about 6 years ago in a soil grow. From what I remember, I think I used 1/2 of what they recommended due to forum posts warning of the strength of these additives. I can't complain with Fox Farm - I used all their products available at the time...

    Advanced Nutrients - pH perfect Sensi Grow: does it contain iron and other micros???

    I'm about 6 weeks into my first DWC with seven plants vegging. First couple of weeks, I used Fox Farm nutes and had wild pH swings (going up to 7.5 or so on a daily basis in my 5-gallon buckets). So, I researched the nutes out there and changed to Advanced Nutrients and am using the Sensi Grow...
