"They claim exhaustive research but never show it"
J/K click on this link and then tell me that they dont show their research, or list the ingredients in their products, or that some of their products dont do anything.
Anybody that has the nerve ta say any of that just doesnt wanna look because everyone hates ta be wrong. For some reason there's a big trend goin on with growers right now ta hate on
Advanced Nutrients. Ive always noticed trends come in go in the growing community but this one I just dont get. Maybe a few of these guys have got burned by AN, got a bad bottle or 2 or and issue with customer svc but most of this dislike is simply folks jumpin on the bandwagon plain and simple. I didnt expect this much shit talkin ta go on on my thread so I decided ta do some google searches ta find other AN threads.... guess what I found??? Every single mother fuckin thread had at least one guy that spent post after post sayin this same ol tired BS about AN that you could easily say about
ANY nute company. And almost every thread had a guy that would ask why do they had so much angst towards the company, and I didnt find one good answer!!!! Most didnt give an answer at all, just spouted more "sleazy advertising" or "high prices" crap. Oh well people love ta hate, some folks just aint happy unless they got somethin ta bitch about.
That link above is the most impressive group of nutrient info Ive ever seen a company compile. Every single product they make has several paragraphs about product usage, tips, research, tests, INGREDIENTS, outside tests done by Univ. blah blah blah. If ya printed it all out it would be a pretty damn thick stack of paper! This is really what pushed me over the edge ta go ahead and give AN a shot at the title. Because I checked several other nute comp sites and your lucky ta find a feeding sched on most of em! Much less comprehensive info on every single product in their arsenal. So anybody that has the nerve ta say that AN doesnt list ingredients or show off research HAVE JUST BEEN PROVEN WRONG! Ill post it one more time just in case!
J/K Im sorry man but in every post youve managed ta say something negative about AN and Im sure this isnt the only thread, so you have said plenty of bad things about em! I dont know how you can say they dont run the company right. They have quality products, do great advertising, theyre the ONLY company that avidly contributes to the Med MJ community, and they have great fuckin customer svc. I called em ta ask a question yesterday and the guy ended up talkin to me for 15-20 mins and he didnt hesitate at all ta talk about herb. Besides that Im pretty sure it was one of the owners, the guy said his name was Eugene and had a crazy russian accent! But who cares, my point is it seems ta me like the company is bein run pretty damn well, and the fact that they support us should convince you by itself.
And your right, a killer grower can grow a great crop with any old nutes, BUT they can grow a better crop with high quality ones. If that grower does 2 identical grows and uses miracle grow one and an expensive premium nute on the other its obvious which crop is gonna yield more better quality bud. And from what Ive seen AN is better than most products out there, and most killer growers will tell you that. If you go around to dif forums and ask the truly great growers what nutes they use, most of em say AN. Shit MasterGrower on here uses it and gets 3+ per light! Almost every side by side Ive seen shows AN in 1st place, I dont know what nute is the best, and there's ALWAYS a best, but if AN isnt then who is?
IndoorHerbs I completely agree with ya man, I def had a great nute line up and def didnt NEED the other few products in the line. But since I started growin Ive always used someones full product line and its always worked great for me and my results have proved that. And it makes sense, these companys pay scientists millions ta put together a full line of products that will make our plants perform at their peak. I do wonder about some of these companys cuz Ive def had ta do some substituting ta get certain lines ta do what I expect! But one thing that Ive learned is if you just stick with what you know and dont try new things you dont move forward and you end up stuck doin the same ol shit gettin the same ol results. And that is one thing that plagues growers, a lot of us get to a certain point of expertise and just stop trying ta learn new things. I dont care how good I get Ill never let myself get stuck and stop learning new things and moving forward. Theres just too much technology comin at us ta get stuck in our ways ya know.
But anyways Id already dropped enough on most of the AN line so I grabbed the rest of it. I figured I went this far, itd be dumb not ta drop a few more dollars and complete the line. That way if I dont get the results Im lookin for I wont be stuck thinkin that it might work better if I used this one or that one next time ya know.
And I feel ya man, it blows my mind ta think that people will actually criticize em for not telling everyone a secret recipe! WHAT! Go ta Pepsi or Cokes website and see if they have their recipes posted! Everyone has secret recipes or formulas, but for some reason AN isnt allowed to or theyre a bad company! HA! And youre right AN 3 part is dif than GHs and you will get better results with ANs, Ive seen it first hand. But thats not even worth talkin about cuz most people dont even use ANs 3 part, they use Sensi or Connie cuz theyre widely recognized as some of the best nutrients in the herb growin game.
