Hey, I've done numerous head to head grows with numerous combinations of Nutes. After using Botinicare,
General Organics,
Earthjuice,
Foxfarm,
Advanced Nutrients, Alaskan Fish Fertilizer, Neptunes Harvest and
Dyna gro with different additives like Spray and Grow and
Hygrozyme I came to some intersting conclusions. First off, if your experienced and understand what the plants need and when, you can be successfull with many combinations. I found it truely depends on your style of growing and how much time you want to dedicate to the nutes. In my tests, I measured things like overall weight, foliage lose, stem width, color, hieght, number of budding sites, general structure, suseptability to disease and/or insect attack, bud weight, flavor and of course potency. I took possible measurements every feeding or about every four or five days throughout they're veg and flowering cycle. I found that growth surged at different times with different applications. For example, using Neptunes and Alaskan Fish Fertilizer early vegitative growth surged, the bat guano and seafood guano in
Earthjuice benefited later bud developement and the
foxfarm and
dyna-gro tended to make flowering times last a little longer but very consistant. These are just examples of some specific findings. In any case I concluded that with the right combo at the right time all available fertilizers seemed to produce quality herb. I'm a commercial grower and try to use my time, money etc as effeciently as possible. After all the testing I use
Earthjuice w/
hygrozyme and/or the
General Organics line. The combo works incredibly for me.
