Nutrients?????????

Bigpapa, welcome.
I use the GH dry Grow and Bloom (no third part or paying shipping for water ! LOL). I was confused about the wide range of recommended amounts to use also. I went to the GH web site and found their PDF files with their recommendations for their products in different media and systems. The feeding schedule, that I use, is greatly different from other's, but also, from the amounts listed on the bottle. The feeding chart is giving me very good results on my current grow, on the last grow, my plants suffered a bit of 'neut' burn. I don't know why there's no clouds up in the sky....!#$^*!?&... wrong thought! I don't know why there is a difference, but the schedule on the web site works for me.
Good luck

I'm going to throttle back some at my next water change in my recirculating system. My tank holds 3.5 gallons. Here are a couple of pics. One of my 2 seedlings got scorched by my light when it sprouted. By the time the second one emerged, I had that sorted out. So here is the better of my 2 seedlings and my set up.

3.5 the same size as mine!!

I use the GH flora trio in my RDWC system. Most of the feed charts I've seen are approx 50% of the recommendation on the label. That's where I start and then let the plants tell me what to do from there. It's great to see all of the different resources we have available-I guess it all depends on how much effort you are willing to give.

For what it's worth, my plants 🌱 are taking off. My DWC grow is in a very limited space. This first time I have two Northern Lights going. Next time I will only do one and take LST to the extreme. Of my two this grow, one had heat damage caused by my lack of experience. My second seedling was a couple of days behind the first. My damaged plant is recovering nicely. I think it will make it. My second plant looks really good to me. So the bottom line at this point is, using the 3 part General Hydroponics products at their recommended levels hasn't had any ill effects. That being said, I still intend to drop down to the GWE recommended levels.

I want to thank everyone for all of the great 👍 info. I will post progress pics weekly.

And that is what I've done. I'm now at the full GWE recommended levels and all is well. I just cruised through the 3 week mark and topped my plants last night. Here are before and after pics.
