Where do you get your nutrient advice from?

I was just wondering where you ask, or who you ask, or if you just use these boards, for advice on what kind of nutrients, brand wise or whatever.

I obviously don't want to walk into a hydro store and start asking them questions about specific nutrients and what to feed the weed during certain times and whatnot.
But me not being any form of a gardener, do you just ask for a tomato or pepper plant? or something general like that, or are they too far removed from needing the same nutrients.

Most Hydro Store guys are way cool so your not going to have a problem. Don't blatantly say weed but let them know you need "nutes for your veg side" and "nutes for your bloom side" and they'll set you straight. I would reccomend Fox Farms Nutes...Grow Big...Big Bloom...Tiger Bloom...Open Sesame..Beastie Blooms...Cha Ching....Kind of pricey but well worth it. Peace and good luck. :peace::joint::peace:

I agree with master. I use the same but to be on the safe side use 1/2 the recommended dosage. Be sure to leech your medium every month prior to harvest to free toxic nutrient buildup.

Yo Cali...So I've been leaching every 14-21 days with Clearex with about 30% runoff. Do you think that is sufficient for freeing the buildup? What do you use to leach?

True, I thought about just asking the guys in the store, but I live in the middle of nowhere and the nearest town 3 hours away has one hydro store, and if they aren't too fond of the idea, then I am out of a close source for anything, and maybe even get the privilege of a knock on the door from the uninvited.

But thanks for the replies so far.
