  | Hey there NuNRG, I am sure there are some striking differences in the products. But that is not the point. The point is that both of them are good to use to grow with, but the key is not what's inside them, but how you use them. When I first got started in growing I wanted to find the "bestest" nutes I could. I spent way too many hours comparing and contrasting all the products available. Turns out the most important thing was not the nutes I picked, but how I, as a grower, used them. So now I don't really stress it. Rather, I settled on one line of nutes (in my case GH FloraNova) and have stuck with it, learning how my plants react to it (which turns out to be different depending on the strain), seeing what the right levels are for the type of water I have available, and watching the plants to see what more (or less) they need. I am sure that if you want you can find many people who have their own opinions. Also, I am sure that the fellow at the hydro store wants to sell you whatever will make him the most amount of money. My suggestion? Ask for some sample bottles, which they will normally give you for free, and try them out. In the end, what sold me on FloraNova was not what it contained, but how easy it is to use (no mixing required), and that it was easily available. Peace.

| They appear to be very similar. Buy the cheaper one as they will both work just fine if you use them properly. Be aware though that AN sales guys tend to pop up on these forums and their bullshit tends to be that you can only grow big, sugary buds with AN or that you can get increased yield over any other nutes...total bullshit. Having said that their product is probably as good as any of the other good nute mfgs. Personally that attitude of treating me like a dumbass means that I will never buy an AN product...but then again I do have a personality defect or two. Remember, sometimes although not in every case, hydro stores are more motivated by their profit than by your results. Best to study these forums and determine what you think is best then ask for it rather than let the normal hydro store salesperson guide you. | ||

| AN basically claims their products have the power to change the dna makeup of the plant. Im serious. Thats like saying salt water gives you the ability to fly for a day. Id pick the GH. Its very PH balanced. | ||
