alot of people swear by GH (general hydroponics) three part solution. I just got some my self but have not started my grow yet.

yerp

by far the easiest system to use, just follow the instructions on the bottle and thats it really, make sure your ph is correct and make sure you dont mix the stuff in undulted form, they will explode

Is this the stuff when u dont need to measure the ec/tds of the solution and just the ph ?

yay post 100

3-part by GH...is a product Advanced Nutrients "copied". they are the same thing.
I actually have mixed AN, and GH 3-part...

and you do still need to measure EC/ppm, but I can tell you. If you run you seedlings at 2ml per gallon each, then in week 3 changeover to 5 ml per gallon each...for your grow, you will be within safe limits...
I would get a EC meter ASAP though, but If you follow the guideline I gave you...It is a safe zone..

PH is imperative. peace

I also want to advise everyone...that although i use botanicare products pure blend pro on all my veggies. I quit using it for pot...3-part blows it away...yield wise!

I do however still use Liquid karma, and calmag+, (botanicare)
hygrozyme.
From AN...I use BUDBLOOD/BIGBud/Overdrive & final phase

Start simple build as your knowledge grows. peace

Ive been using the GH 1 part (Flora Nova Grow for veg and Flora Nova Bloom). Been working great so far. I wanted to keep it real simple and the plants seem to be getting everything they need (some of them just wont stop growing damnit!) If you dont mind a little mixing, I would do the 3 part. I have seen just a lot of great results from that.

any one got any cheap uk links where i can purchase some GH products ? :-)

Not sure if they are "cheap" but here are a couple sites i found

http://www.elementshydroponics.com/
http://www.growell.co.uk/p/0145/Gene...Nutrients.html

man, just checked on a meter and found a range on EC meters from $35 to $495... do you have a fav??

I'm getting everything togather for a first grow, and have been seeing your post pop up all the time... prob could search all your previous posts and find the answer... which I will start as soon as I send this...

thanks for the help, you always are bring the discussion back to the focus of growing living things, which is a very civilized personal trait to bring to the forum, and that is greatly appreciated by many
