I have been running General Organics for years, and the New Millennium line has been tempting me to change things up for the last year or so…This carbon based nutrient line is appealing to my minimal understanding of organic chemistry. Has anyone run these, and what have been our results?
Thanks; my google-fu is failing me on a decent search for reviews…

I haven’t run them, but they seem fairly similar to the other salt-based nutrient companies that offer 15 different bottles when only 2 or 3 are needed. I don’t think these are organic, if that’s what you were thinking; maybe I’m misunderstanding though. For example, the first one, “Equinox,” seems to be a calcium nitrate supplement without the magnesium. Presumably you have to buy another bottle to get the magnesium. “Spring” and “Summer” seem to have identical NPK ratios, and there’s nothing else listed on the MSDS. “Winter Frost,” “Decision” and “PK APATITE” all seem to be fairly standard PK boosters with fairly similar ratios. No idea why you’d need all three, unless they aren’t listing ingredients on the MSDS. “Carb-O-Naria” seems like it’s sugar water with a little potassium sulfate. Overall, they look like another line of nutrients designed to take advantage of cannabis growers, imo. They’d probably work, but their main purpose seems to be to make your wallet a lot lighter rather than making your harvest heavier.

I replaced potassium citrate with their K bloom; potassium citrate fulvate acetate with Jasmonic and steviol glycotransferase. Super useful as cannabis struggles to switch from calcium induced cell expansion to cell fill.

Your comment seems like it may be a mix of some half truths and sarcasism.
Do I have that right?
Or do I need to get to googling…LOL

I repeat; go flush yourself, Mr. Toilet. Such an odd coincidence that @Westcoastcroppers’ latest sock puppet was banned two days ago. Now we have another troll repeating the exact same blend of science and lies in order to confuse people and unwarrantedly feel that he’s superior? It must be his evil twin.

let’s re-visit Carbon Based Nutrients by Rooted Leaf Agr. Carbon based nutrient is a Macronutrient not a micronutrient. Have listen to many podcast DUDEGROW /FIRST SMOKE OF THE DAY / THE POT CAST, ECT with Nick Nicolaive (owner) interesting they say no more use of CO2 bottles, bags, Also yields can be increased by 40% (quite a bit) If I do order it will be their Prime A and Prime B ($27.00) Now this is new science so-to-say - but makes sense - the pod cast are quite informative here is another FYI (Journal of expermental Botany / Rooted Leaf Agritech) Carbon based fertilizers can include Kelp, molasses, plant ferment) Thoughts ? Please
Sales gimmick. 40% more? That’s a load of Bologna. Yeah I believe it’s maybe 40% more versus just using water. The product might be a good product I have no idea. If you don’t have the capabilities to do ferments on your own it’s probably worth it and definitely I think it couldn’t hurt to add any ferments to a grow within reason.

I agree !!!- 40% maybe in a perfect world !!! but carbon is an interesting element and is very beneficial other than addressing “carbon”
sorry was wrong no 40% yields increase but a 40% in “bio-mass” Also not "salts in products all products are derived from “fermentation” Plant There is another company called Well Grown Seeds that offers plant fermentation products plus many breeders genetics have their
