Would I be okay to use all these nutrients ?

Should I get anything else ? Or will this be sufficient enough to use throughout my whole entire grow ?

Edit: Growing in coco

This is my first time growing is why I’m asking lol probably pretty obvious

CloneX/rapid growth for seedlings stage and I was thinking of making a compost tea but I saw that “ recharge” has pretty much everything that a compost tea would include. I planned on mixing some all purpose fertilizer azomite worm castings & myco in the coco every now and then (maybe every 2-4 weeks ??) and also when I transplant. And using the humbolts base A&B/cal-mag/rapid growth daily when watering.

Goodness, that's a lot of stuff!! You don't need all that to grow good smoke. Looks like a mix of chemical salts and organic nutrients. You'll probably want to choose 1 or the other. I take it you're growing in soil?

Should I not use some of these ?? And/or should I add something different ?

If it's your first grow, just keep it simple. Coco and organics, from what I've seen, is for experienced growers. I would get a simple and proven fertilizer, and use that to learn about the plant and growing process :blsmoke: I can't recommend what nute line to use, I've never grown in coco. I'm having good success with House and Garden in dwc right now. Good luck!

Thanks bro. That’s some pretty straight forward and solid advice. I’m over here wishing upon success when in reality I should slow down and worry about keeping it as simple as possible and gain as much wisdom while growing my first yield. Lol

I’m sure most are probably as giddy as me on their first run tho. Lol can’t help it tho, took me 8 months to build my room and save enough money to buy everything slowly lol

I know how it is!! I was fired up when I first started, almost loved my plants to death. I was lucky enough to have someone on here give me some good advice when I first started. He told me to only grow 1 or 2 plants, and don't do any training. Just watch and learn how they grow. This will give you a good baseline, and as you gain more experience, you can try different training methods, and really understand what effect you're having on the plant. There is a lot of great info on coco here :mrgreen: When you first start, the biggest thing is keeping screw ups to a minimum. Make sure your timers are set right, keep your environment as close to ideal as you can, and you'll end up with some killer smoke.
This place is an invaluable resource, and one of your best tools. Patience will get you farther than any miracle cure. If you aren't sure about something, ask a question. There are tons of threads from people who did first and asked later, with detrimental results.
Welcome to the club, best of luck!!

Get yourself something like CANNA COCO A/B or something like DUTCH PRO HYDRO COCO GROW A/B

no need for all the additional bottles.

a good balanced coco formula to begin with will see you through a couple of harvests just using a 2 part base.

Then when you’ve got a good foundation and understanding of how to grow in coco then look to compliment what you’re using with another product etc.

don’t go balls to the wall all in for hundreds of dollars with no experience.

you’re making it a lot harder than it needs to be.

I grow in coco.

here’s what I use.

dutchpro hydro coco grow A/B
epsom Salts
Mono potassium phosphate
Calmag

4 bottles of liquid and some dry Epsom salts.

It took me 5 years and a lot of research to realize the greatest "addivitive".......oxygen. More oxygen to the roots. Undersized pots with multiple irrigations will increase yield so much you'd be amazed.

I use maxi and some epsom. Literally thats all.

Well I did purchase 15x 5.5 gallon air pots so I guess that was a good choice over plain ole plastic lol They were pretty damn expensive too

Thanks bro. I appreciate it and the others who commented. Ya know after I spent 5k on my room and equipment.. I’ve been over here regretting it thinking like man.. “ I should have started with 2-4 plants under 1x 1000 watt HPS and then splurged out with the money I acquired from my first yield

The Black Magic slow release ferts will screw everything up in coco. Not soluble enough. See below.
(*PRO TIP: Not designed to be mixed into your hydro reservoir. It will clog your pump. )

I'd skip these in coco, you already have Mycos and Part AB food.
You don't want rock dust or any sands mixed in you hydro, clogs drains later.
  • clonex
  • RapidStart
  • Black Magic ferts
  • Azomite
  • EWC
  • Recharge

I've only 2 grows under my belt with co co and yes simply A& B canna is a great choice, like has been mentioned Calmag to a degree also as it's coco. On myt 2nd grow i branched out into some PK nutrient and also some root focused nutriet (Rizzolm?) to help my clones get a good footing. Hope that helps a little.

I use 3 things from seedling to the end of flower. The same exact feed thru the whole way with a slightly higher ppm after 4 weeks flip.

Dyna Gro - Protekt, Grow and Foliage Pro. Done. One teaspoon each per gallon of RO water.

If you're growing in coco I wouldn't use any of that. But since you already purchased it all you need is the Humboldt and maybe some calmag.

If you add all that other stuff it's guaranteed that you'll have issues with your plants.

People are having stellar grows with just Jacks and calcium nitrate.
