Gator got me thinking about switching to all powder nutes. I've been using Future Harvest which is an excellent line of products, but so many damn bottles and so much plastic! I've just looked at Reefertilizer and now I'm looking at Lotus nutes: any suggestions? Again: I grow hydroponically.

I have a question that has come up a few times. Years of testing, sure. All the right numbers, sure. 5-star reviews, sure. But what makes a product cannabis specific?
Articles I've read say different brands that have the same ingredients are basically the same thing. Store brand vs name brand, I guess.

I messed around with powdered additives. I tried an essential elements powder, different limes and found that they were not really great when using a tank to fertigate from. Lots of sediment accumulated in the bottom of the tank even with the best mixing possible so I reverted back to liquids.
It didn't cause any issues though I just didn't think it was a great idea given the sediment build up in the tank.Flower Room: 11' x 7' x 7.5'H, 480w AC, 13gal/day dehumidifier, 1.5gal ultrasonic humidifier, 60gal (27gal usable) nute tank, 16" pedestal fan & 18" wall fan. Lighting and climate automated. Hand watering.
Veg Cupboards: Two 4x2x6H cupboards. SF2000 Evo in one SF7000 in other. Climate controlled and automated. Hand watering
Aeroponics Low Pressure Bucket: 20W LED. 5 clones & 20W LED 11 clones
Lights: Mars Hydro FC-E1200W, SF-7000, SF-2000 evo in flower room.
Medium: Coco/perlite, 7.2gal pots, no drains
Current Grow: 5 x Photos Franklin's Orange Zkittles x Sour Diesel in flower room, 3 Franklin's White Widow x Sour Diesel Clones, 13 x Orange ZkittleZ x Sour Diesel clones in Aeroponics buckets x 2.

I've never had a problem with the strength of the stems, which is why I've been able to have lots of "horizontal grows" with supercropping. I haven't broken a stem yet because it was too flimsy. I'm posting pics below. Stems are plenty strong.

Yes I supercrop every grow, I think the stress gives teh buds a little boost. My first RDWC grow was autoflowers, that was the first mistake. They wereso thin though they would crush like a straw and then break. What media are you growing in and what nutrients are you using

Allenpro I use leca clay balls and Future Harvest nutes (a Canadian brand). It's awesome, and I love the leca because I sterilize it in H2O2 and it's good to go over and over and over. I've never grown autos but I understand that LST isn't good for them--at least that's what they say on GWE...
