Hello! First post here but not new to growing. I'm having great results with Jack's but recently their stuff has change at least for me. It used to be yellow when mixed in water it is now reddish/brown and shortly passed one week the concentrated mix starts forming some rot or nastys in it.

So I'm looking for an alternative and a local distributor GHL has got my interest here is what I'm looking at: http://boutiquepro.ghlinc.com/engrais-formulation-soluble-6-11-31-15kg
Another popular distributor in my area who has a similar product: https://www.plantprod.com/product/plant-prod-6-11-31-hydroponic/

It's even cheaper than Jack's for me that I have to get through the hydro store.

One thing I'm concerned with is magnesium. I did'nt have to add anything to Jack's and my plants where fine from veg to harvest with the exact same formula. 3 parts Jack's for 2 parts Cal-Nit. There is 2,5% magnesium in GHL nutes and Plant-Prod has 3,2% but I can't find on Jack's website how much there is in their hydroponic formula.

Jack's nutrients were notorious for having a decent amount of magnesium I want to prevent both magnesium and calcium deficiencies I use R.O. water and never needed to add any Epsom salt. I grow in canna coco.

So anybody tried some 6-11-31 in coco ?

Have you ever looked into grow more: Mendocino producer water soluble

They make almost clone versions of jacks and if not more popular than jacks, check out their line and their tech support was ultra nice and gave me some great advice

Thank you for your answer. I'm in Canada these nutes look great but my guess is they would be harder to find for me and will also cost more due to shipping unless there is a distributor around who keeps the cost down.
