That’s a good ph if you’re not in soil. In soil u want to b in the 6.3-6.8 range depending on the stage of grow u are in and what nutes u are trying to uptake.

One question from a beginner 
:
I’ve just bought micro-grow-bloom. In the AN nutrient calculator it says that I should use the three of them right from week 1 in the growing phase until week 6 of the blooming phase, but in the bottles it says that micro and grow should be used on the growing phase and bloom on the blooming phase… Which one is correct?

Always use all three. I have been using that line for the past few grows. Always all three together. What is your grow medium?

I won’t discount that your nutrient line helped you but there are allot of factors that go into root growth, especially in hydro.
Making sure that water is always at an optimal level so that the upper root mass has consistent and equal opportunity to grow as big as the lower part of the root mass is a huge factor. I do a hybrid NFT technique in my DWC to insure that the upper root mass gets water even when the water level drops.
A well oxygenated water reservoir makes a huge difference too and even red spectrum light can contribute some.
I’m not knocking AN, I’m just saying you probably had more to do with that root growth as that plants grower than advanced nutrients had to do with it

Speaking of charged soils, I been using this premixed Sohum Organic Soil.
They claim you can go the entire grow with only giving it water, no need to add nutes or ph.
I read reviews on the product and growers said it got them all the way through veg with no problem but it began to lose some of that “organic charge” about halfway through flower.
I decided to just make use of that “water only” part in the veg stage only and it has worked great so far. I spent the entire veg cycle only watering with reverse osmosis water which is not totally pure (16 ppm) and never pHed, but once I flipped to flower last week I began pHing and adding nutrients and am currently sitting at 1000ppms
The microbiology might die off but the synthetic nutrients will pick up where the organic left off.

Thanks Dave. I grow on soil, indoors and auto strains.

Depending on what soil you are using remember you might not need the nutrients for a couple weeks or so and when you do start using them never start at full strength. AN has a basic chart in their website you can use as a guideline

I have checked the AN website, and Canna and Biobizz, and based on what I got home I have created my own chart for growing fast speed autos (I will now grow 5 Sweet Gelato auto and three OG Kush auto):
| Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5 | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 | Week 9 | Week 10 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rhizo Tonic | 4 | 2 | 2 | 1 | 0,5 | 0,5 | 0,5 | 0,5 | 0,5 | 0,5 |
| Acti-Vera | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | ||||||
| Grow | 1 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
| Micro | 1 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
| Bloom | 1 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
| Top Max | 1 | 1 | ||||||||
| Bud Candy | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | ||||
| Big Bud | 2 | 2 | 2 | |||||||
| PK 13/14 | 1,5 | 1,5 | 1,5 | 1,5 | ||||||
| Overdrive | 2 | 2 | ||||||||
| Canna Zym | 2,5 | 2,5 | 2,5 | 2,5 | 2,5 | 4 |
Do you think it will work?
In the weeks with many additives, should I split them and have some i one watering and the rest on the next, or is it ok to have that many at the same time?
Thanks for your help!

It really depends on strain but I’m thinking you might be pushing your nutes too strong and could see a lockout or a burn… depending on where your water source is coming from your week three already looks around 1000 ppm which in my opinion be too much, too soon. Also it does depend on how much of a charge you have to your soil to begin with! Also even though it is a ph perfect line I strongly suggest testing the ph every time just to make sure.

This is not always true. I use AN and I always feed at full strength. Also using AN I never have to ph my water Bc as they claim the ph is always perfect.
I use their additives as they call for in the schedule. Your soil is the biggest factor. Don’t start feeding until the charge in your soil is spent.

I use the water from my well, the same we use at home. The soil I use is normal gardening soil, bought at the gardening store. It has a PNK of 11-5-18. What would you suggest?

How do you now when the soil has spent all nutrients?

Can someone explain me , why do you guys use so many additives and supplements . Have you ever checked the labels of the bottles , whats the difference between them . For example whats the difference between PK 0-14-15 and some base flowering nutrition 3-20-20 ? The difference is 3g more of N per lbs , and those PK boosters they sell it for crazy price like 800$ per Gallon and you can buy base for 200$ for 50lbs . Just ask the manufactures of those expensive and complicate schedules whats the difference between their product and the cheap ones , and you will get answers like VEG+BLOOM owner when he was asked in video : Consistency ! Sorry but that answer is not enough to buy your product which is 10 times more expensive . U look supplements GRAM OF N per $ , not some ‘’ propriety blends ‘’
