All the additives in AN’s series is targeted home growers, and as I see it it’s made for people who don’t have ideal conditions and know how. But that goes for all the cannabis nute companys, additives are not really needed. Not saying they don’t work, they might help!
When I did commercial cropping, I had a meeting with AN about buying nutrients direct. As you don’t wanna pay growshop prices, when you mix a 1000 Gal reservoir for each room.
They started out talking a lot about additives, but in the end they had to agree with me. The basic 3 part line, is all you need to get top yealds. My background is greenhouse growing, not cannabis related. And all thouse additives sold for cannabis, I have never met in my work or horticulture education, seen on greenhouse expos or wholesale catalogs.
When your nutrient and pH is in ballance, your planst will get all they need from the 3 part line. It’s only a question about mixing it right, for the strain your running.
If your not as good at maintaining the reservoir, sure it helps to use all sorts of additives. That will correct the imballance, or beneficial bacteria/mycelium that will help your plant uptain thouse things even tho your pH is fucked and your res is full of waste nutes.
This don’t mean they are all needed, and that is why you can’t buy the addetives in commercial containers. They are only made in growshop size, and sold to home growers.
Thats my experience and view, others might have different opinions and experience.
