yes thats what I was saying too hehe

I was wondering what the heck nutes meant also, I literally thought that maybe all the various round shapes you see in the photos were some type of nuts and people were just calling them nutes. Didn't see that on the newbie slang/terms thread.

LOL. This is awesome.

Fertilizers = nutrients.

Nutrients help to fertilize plants by adding new vitamins, minerals, and a whole bunch of other things that I don't understand or care to understand.

It's not a bad question to ask. After all, so many companies try to make their products sound better by changing the names of them so that that they sound snazzy or better. Most of them are the same things - and we all have our favorite nutrient companies, well, most of us. But when all is said and done, most of the products just have the same ingredients in them and are named differently or contain different amounts.

That's just the way it is.

Finding this out now is going to help you realize that not everything you read can be trusted - question everything. Great, now I feel like the X-Files. "The truth is out there." LOL

I need more coffee, I think.

I have 15-30-15 miracle grow nutes would this be for veg or flower, thanks.
