Advanced Nutrients Feeding schedule

Advanced Nutrients is a Canadian brand created in 1999 by the grower Big Mike. Legend has it that there was a time when most major players in the industry tried to distance themselves from the truth by claiming that their nutrient were mainly intended for growing tomatoes and wouldn't even stand in a garden or a grow room with one of their clients, one man stood out, side by side with his fellow producers, embracing the truth and pulling back the curtain to expose the good and the bad side of indoor and outdoor growing, innovating the way marijuana has been cultivated for over four decades now. 

Advanced Nutrients is considered by most growers to be the best brand of nutrient in terms of both yield and the quality of the final product. It is also the easiest to manage because, in addition to that, with its use, plants require less care in general.

The feeding schedules are designed over a period of 12 weeks, including 4 weeks of vegetative growth and 8 weeks of flowering. The last two weeks are dedicated to flushing the plants before harvest. This comprehensive program optimizes the use of nutrients and additives at each phase to maximize plant health and yield.

Note that these schedules are based on cultivation with liquid nutrient, and Advanced Nutrients also offers more suitable soluble nutrient for professional crops such as "Big Bud Powder, Bud Blood, Sensi Grow & Bloom and Voodo Juice Plus". The beneficial aspect of powdered nutrient is that they allow for cultivating a larger area than with liquid nutrient, which are already diluted in water when purchased, and are cheaper for the same cultivation area.

Calendrier de culture Advanced Nutrients pour débutant
Here the cultivation calendar is based on a light cycle for feminized plants, for the automatic ones you will need to slightly reduce the amount of nutrient to dose. At first glance, one might think that there is quite a range of nutrient to apply at each watering, but wait until you see the expert cultivation calendar to understand.
Just for your information, you are not required to apply all the nutrient listed on the feeding schedules because the prices for a complete range are quite high.
"If your budget is tight, you can start by using the necessary basic nutrient which are PH Perfect Grow Micro and Bloom. For the root stimulator, you have Voodoo Juice. Then, during flowering, you will use the stimulator Big Bud to enhance yield, and you will finish with Overdrive. For flushing, you can either use Flawless Finish, or you can also do without it."

For Autos, you mention to reduce the dosed amounts of fertilizer. What percentage of the scheduled rates would you suggest? 75%? 50%?
