Dutch Masters Gold is the most advanced plant nutrient on the market. However most people are just a little scared to try it since its so powerful.

Sugars can be added in many forms and do not need to cost $20 per quart. organic molasses or dark brown sugar can be used to increase carbohydrate levels and sugar content.

Not in hydroponics. You're just asking for trouble adding regular sugars like that to a hydro res. It doesn't cause a slime mold every time but often enough. You clean that out of a res (and hopefully not lose your whole crop) just once, you won't try it a second time.

dutchmaster gold a/br is almost the same formula as conesuir a/b
told this by a dutchmaster sales rep

Gold is "almost" the same as Conni? And you got that from the DM sales rep? Well of course he'd have no reason to lie... :evilgrin0040:

i use alot of an products recently cut out factor x and see no difference budcandy is good shit.. bigbud is great to. i also other an products i use but i will elaborate on my dealing with budcandy since thats what this thread is on. it is a sweeterner but also has humic acids and b vitamins do not ever mixbudcandy with another b vitamin like b52 or thrive alive. b52 is bud candy without sweetners great for veg and first 2wks in flower with bud ignitor voodjuice and h&g rootexcellurator. budcany is best used from wk 3 flower in combo with bigbud. i also us rhino throughout veg and flower as pot silicate but there are cheaper out there.

i always started my bud candy week 2
an directions are 2 ml/l on almost everything
bud xl week 4 or 5, strain dependant
as with most sweetners, minimal npk, so you can run still stuff at 15 ml/g if you want

I didn't read through the entire thread but I'm pretty sure you can use both products together. In my experience Bud Candy is superior to other Sugar/Carb products I've tried. No joke,buds swell with resin glands and smells.

Regarding the Bud candy...I wish they would have kept the original recipe (with molasses) for the dirt farmer like me.

The rep told me the new formula still has molasses. It is just a different type of molasses that runs cleaner....Peace

my hydro guy told me that conni is a direct rip off of DM gold. there's a whole back story/rumor that i'm not gonna go into. but my guys got no reason to steer customers to a bottle that's a quarter of the price of AN if we aren't gonna come back impressed.

then again, DM says not to run boosters with gold because it is already loaded with pk. if conni can run with boosters, then i don't think it can be the same.

yeah, as stated nutes are like cars, you could buy a dodge and still get there, but a ferrari smells better, that being said... you get what you pay for in some respects, but if Advanced didnt work as GREAT as they do they would NOT be in business. you could always go back to MiracleGrow if cost is a issue.

Bid candy us the shit I will stay in my line up for a king time bud x is great to but I thin it's in messiest to use weeks 1-3 I star using bud x about half way through week 4 and use bud candy all the way through you can use bud x as a folier spray in the 2 and 3 week works pretty well but nit sessisary I will continue to use both the x really gets the resin a flowin Advanced nutrients are the shut bud u jus have to use the rite products the base is the best in the maket bud ignitor is not nessisary but big bud overdrive,bud candy, nirvana, mother earth tea, b-52, liquid carboload, and bud x, it what I use rhino skin us a rip off voodoo juice is the shit but I only use in vegg but I never use more than 8ml per liter on the base any more us a waste and a good way to burn your plants if you stick to 2ml per liter you can't go wrong that's what I do and I works awesome so use all products at 2ml per liter even the base simple and effective awesome results I actuall walked into my flowering room this morning and found about a third if my plants fell over from the weight if the buds the were damn near laying on the grown from the weight it was sick

you do know there is stuff cheaper than AN and stuff cheaper than miracle grow that works great right?
Advanced is like a Honda they told you is a ferrari with a bunch of ferrari hood ornaments. Advanced doesnt deserve to be in business. One day they will get whats coming to them
