Caly Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 So I've just finished my first grow and after nearly killing all my plants (having the light too close when they were seedlings) I was left with 5 plants in which I managed to grow 18oz...!! The smoke is smooth, looks and smells great. I'm so happy I got 18oz from the below seedings. On this run, I used Buddas Tree nutes, the buds weren't massive but they were dense and solid. So I've read a lot about Growers Ark and just wanted to hear from growers who are using these nutes on what I could expect? The feeding chart seems simple to follow and I'm looking to change if it's worth it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pot Luck Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Compare costs and go from there.. lots of the nutes are just fancy marketing ploys.. some are copies of others.. almost all of them split nutes into many bottles so you end up with some bizarre plant based chemistry set.. For me GA is just simple and cheap.. Give it a go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they are half the price of Buddhas tree, don't get me wrong I got amazing results from them, but GA looks simple, I like the look of the schedule, so just looking for feedback on results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pot Luck Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 As long as your environment is spot on then you probably won’t notice any difference in yield.. and you’ll save money.. win win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PK 9-18 from Buddhas tree made them hard and solid (which I liked), does the Boost it from GA do the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pot Luck Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 (edited) Again, a lot of that is to do with the strain and the wattage of light you use.. Grow with a 250 and your buds will be less dense than under a 600.. you can grow weed with a bottle of maxicrop seaweed from the local garden centre for a 10er I’ve had big buds, little buds, fluffy buds and rocks.. personally i think your environment will have a larger affect on how your plant performs than the nutes you use.. Growers Ark do a starter kit for about £50 from their website. get that and give it a go.. Grow + root stim for veg Bloom + boost + little bit of root stim for flower.. easy.

Arthur Mix Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Having used both and many others I settled on Maxigro and Maxibloom powders . They work well and are cheaper. Most liquid feeds contain these ingredients same as powder raw form 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arthur Mix Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I did but found other stuff just as I said. Also if I like something it’s in my diaries being used. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi All, can anyone confirm if GAs nutes will give me the quoted effect that I’m looking for? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kronic420 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 @Caly you probably just grew a strain with naturally hard/dense buds and it wasn’t the pk 9-18 , I used to use growers ark I rate them but have moved on to dutch pro now . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
