Nutrients The Autoflower Network welcomes Prescription Blend!

Was this to the end of achieving more bio mass and or improvements in terpenes?

Thanks for the follow up question, I should have included that in the original answer.. We grew medical cannabis for our friends and family for 15 years and our primary selection criteria was for potency and flavor/aroma, we tired to maximize growth while maintaining that high quality level.

I'm using Mega Crop so it's nice to know there is a company thinking about the whole spectrum of growers enough to attempt what you guys are in hydroponics.

Curious to how well does it work in large batches, 55g for example? pH drifts, build up, foam?

Anything specifically for cloning now or in the future?

Works very well in larger reservoirs, several of our local gardeners mix in 55 or larger tanks, feed drain to waste until the tanks lower to ~10-15% and then top it off with water and nutrients. The pH should remain stable for quite a while and as long as you have some run through in your pots there should not be any buildup. As far a foam... no. Nothing specific as far as cloning, just to start feeding slowly after they root but i'm sure you know that already.

Thank you again!! One more thing, I noticed you dont have a flushing agent. Do you plan on making any?
Thanks

Edit:
Do lights effect you product? I'll be running 2 plants under the Spider-farmer SF-1000(draws 93 watts from the wall) and 2 2lt soda bottles under the HLG 65 watt qb(draws 65 watts from the wall) .

Thanks @Son of Hobbes and @Prescription Blend for making this test possible. I have not decided how I will use these until I hear a little more about the line up. @Prescription Blend, what is your recommended medium for your nutes? I see a number of people uaing Coco. I look forward to seeing how they preform for everyone. Also, for the test...how far will the samples go? Meaning, how many plants should we be able to do start to finish with our test samples? I dont want to start too many plants. Thanks again, slow

I know we covered some of these questions in DM but I'll talk about it again here so its public knowledge.

We have tested our nutrients in many different medias from pure hydro to coco, rock wool, peat, OF etc. it will work with any media you use. We have personal preferences for coco/perlite blends but that is only because we found it easiest to use not based on superior results so if you want to run both then I'd say its up to you if you want to do the extra work but you should see very similar results.

At the moment we only fill one size kit which is intended for people to be able to get through a complete cycle in a small garden. It makes 100gal of full strength nutrient. We can certainly send another kit out to you if you realize you will run out before harvest so we will keep in touch on that point.

Lights should not effect the nutrient, but we do recommend storage in a cool dry location. (not sure if that answers your question so please let me know if you were looking for other info)

FLUSHING.... a topic of topics. There are a lot of different opinions about flushing, the best way to get it done and if you even need to do it.

This may ruffle some feathers out there but this is our position of flushing agents, we don't like them at all! We don't have plans to introduce a flushing agent. Many companies offer flushing agents that are no more effective then pH adjusted water and those that are more effective use chemical chelating agents like EDTA/DPTA/EDDHA to bind and "FLUSH" excess metals. Our approach is: just don't have excess metals. Then, if a flush is desired nothing other then pH adjusted water is needed. We couldn't in good conscience cause a problem and then charge for a product to fix it. We are also opposed to using chemical chelating agents unnecessarily only to flush them down the drain into our watersheds. Some products use a citrate buffer as the chelating agent for flushing and this is better but its still no different then using a citrate based pH down.

Our recommendation, use a nutrient line that has balanced levels of micro nutrients that won't build up and flush slowly with pH adjusted water as desired.

Everything showed up without incident.

double boxed, too.

Came double boxed like @Dichoti Thanks @Prescription Blend the packaging is nice, feed chart is precise and considerate, pipettes were a nice addition.

I was happy opening this up and everything feels nice in the hand.

I'm going to test this on the Fastbuds since they are still young and the only autos I have lol. I'll continue in my blog but I made a page specifically for this here.

@Son of Hobbes the blog entry is tagged in the forums for grow battle. Would it be better as official product testing?
