What Nutrients Are Effective?
by Nebula Haze
|
How do you choose effective marijuana nutrients? First you ask yourself: "What is my growing medium?" If you're growing in soil, you will want to get nutrients made for soil. If you are growing in any medium besides soil, like coco coir, or a soilless mix, you will want to get nutrients made for hydroponics. Some nutrients are even more specific, like Canna Coco is formulated to work best growing cannabis in Coco
Coir. Warning: When it comes to growing cannabis, avoid any nutrients which claim to be "extended" or "slow release"! They can cause all types of unexpected problems.

Looking for suggestions? With all nutrient systems, don't start at full strength or it might burn your plants! Different strains have different preferences, and some plants are very sensitive to nutrient burn. I recommend with new nutrient systems to start at half-strength and only raise the amount as needed. Plants use light for food (and to power the growth of buds), not nutrients. Just like eating a bunch of multi-vitamins every day will make you sick, giving plants too high levels of nutrients can make them sick, too. Some growers try to push their plants to the limit of what they can take, giving stronger and stronger levels of nutrients until plants show signs of nutrient burn, but I don't believe this is necessary. Sometimes less is more. I believe that
as long as your plant is not showing signs of deficiencies (such as growing pale green leaves towards the bottom of the plant), you are generally in the right range. Here are pictures of cannabis plants with nutrient problems (and solutions). Please: Never Use Miracle-Gro Nutrients to Grow Cannabis! Many of us have seen Miracle-Gro used around our
homes, so we know that it works for 'regular houseplants'. Cannabis is just a tough weed, so Miracle-Gro nutrients should work great for it, too... right? No. Not really. The biggest problem with Miracle-Gro nutrients is they use one formula for the entire plant life cycle. Even if Miracle-Gro is good one for one stage of your plants growth, it won't be good for allof them. The ratio of nutrients a cannabis plant needs changes drastically between when your plant is a seedling and when the plant
is making buds in the flowering stage. Cannabis plants need a nutrient system to accommodate for their changing nutrient needs, and Miracle-Gro just doesn't work well. Please, save yourself the time and frustration - get a nutrient system that's proven to work for growng cannais! If cost is a worry... Don't want to spend a lot? Need something
simple? Dyna-Gro Nutrients Work Great
For Growing Cannabis One of the simplest (yet still inexpensive) cannabis nutrient systems that works great for beginners is offered by Dyna-Gro. (Use "Foliage-Pro" & "Bloom"). Their system uses just two bottles and is very simple, plus they work with any growing medium for growing cannabis. Dyna-Gro can be used to grow
cannabis in... - soil
- hydro
- coco coir
- ...or any growing medium
Dyna-Gro nutients work well for growing cannabis from seed to harvest. You don't
need anything else. They do not build up salt in your soil or growing medium like many other inexpensive fertilizers, and they will never clog your hydroponic system. Dyna-Gro Nutrients famously worked better than Advanced Nutrients in a cannabis grow-off on Rollitup, which surprised many people since AN has long been considered one of the "golden standard" nutrient systems for growing cannabis (and it comes with a very expensive price tag, too). Best of all, Dyna-Gro nutrients are cheap! Learn more about Dyna-Gro for growing cannabis Looking for more cannabis nutrient
suggestions?
(there's tons more options & detailed information about each one!) With all nutrient systems that you're trying out
for the first time, I highly suggest starting at half the recommended nutrient levels when growing weed. I generally recommend you only increase the concentration if you see signs of nutrient deficiencies. This is because, for whatever reason, most nutrient recommendations are way too strong for growing most strains of cannabis. (Maybe nutrient companies want to sell more by having you use more?) With nutrients, a little bit goes a long way. I've found over and over that you get the best yields by erring on the side of "too little" over "too much" nutrients. I always start a
half strength and only move up when I see deficiencies. It's easy to add more nutrients, but it's a lot harder to try to take them away. For example, I do recommend increasing nutrient levels if I notice slight yellowing of leaves towards the bottom of the
plant. Increase Nutrient Levels If You See
This (click picture for more
information) Now yellowing leaves towards the bottom of your plant is okay if you're late in the flowering/budding stage, but this symptom needs to be corrected at any other time earlier in the plant's life (to make sure you have enough leaves that last all the way to
harvest).

Sirius Fourside:Sirius Fourside is a hobbyist grower who has gained the bulk of his experience growing in water as a medium(deep water culture, bubbleponics). "Growing cannabis is a relaxing hobby in and of itself, but it also saves you money and keeps you from having to deal with shady characters. Cannabis is much easier to grow than people give it credit for, and growing in water doesn't increase the difficulty much, if any. But whether you want to grow in water, perlite, or a different medium, we'll show you how easy it can be!"
