You will probably get as many different answers as there are people who respond. I was kind of in the same boats as you Miser66. I've been using
Earth Juice nutes for a while and have been pleased with the results but the local stores have been abusing their bottles or something. I decided to give the Pure Blend Pro line a try. I haven't used the Bloom Soil product yet so I can't give you my impression of it but the Grow nutes have been impressing me.
Of course like 5tickynubz said above, if you want to brew teas it isn't complicated and will have great results. For myself I have moved away from the teas because I don't get around like I used to and it is just easier to mix a few milliliters of nutrients with a couple gallons of water as I need it.
