I'm trying to figure out which nutrients and supplements are best for growing weed.

When it comes to growing cannabis, which plant supplements are absolutely must have to grow good weed?

What supplements are nice to have for growing weed, and why?

What supplements are a total waste of money, or worse, bad for your cannabis plants? For example, I've heard some flowering supplements can trigger plants to herm.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and stories.

I grow in a 5050 blend of coco/perlite in the autopot system using 5 gallon cloth pots. The autopot system uses reservoirs. Mine is 12 gallons. I use CX Horticulture nutrients for coco and have a number of years. That include A&B base, Growth Enhancer for veg, Bloom Enhancer and Head Masta for flower, Wilt Gard, and ReGeneroot. I also use GH Cal/Mag and Athena Cleanse. The cleanse is for the reservoir in the autopot system. I don't want to add anything that I don't need.

What I use can produce a lot of weed subject to me and how I apply what I've learned here. In other words great nutrients and set up can't defeat a poor grow environment. It's not a supplement but the grow light is critical to a successful grow. The best nutrients won't overcome a weak or improperly placed light. What nutrients are must have might depend on how you grow but if I understand it correctly MJ absolutely needs NPK and calcium magnesium and sulphur. There are some others that I can't recall. I think mistakes happen when growers don't understand the basic needs of the plant. I think the nice to haves and the total waste of money supplements arguments would go away if the basics were perfected first. Just my .02. Worth price charged :cool:
 
What golf said is spot on. But my 10 cents worth… I use sunshine mix #4 ,perlite,general hydroponics 2 bottles flora nova series 1 for veg 1 for bloom and add gh Calmag and really only other supplement I use is recharge from real growers. Keep it simple My last indoor grow I averaged 3.5-4 oz per plant. Grow 3-4 plants I have enough weed for a year but if you do 2-3 grows a year you have a TON of weed😎
 
I don't use or need supplements. Simply a way for grow companies to make your money their money. GH Trio with CalMag works just fine. Only supplement ever needed is Hydroguard for DWC. (Note: newer growers should NOT do DWC.)

I imagine some experienced growers will use some type of supplement. I'll let them explain what, why and the grow circumstances.
