General Hydroponics makes some pretty high quality plant foods. We tried our hand at hydroponic gardening because the soil where we live is poor and it is always an endless battle with insects. This and the others fertilizers in their set of nutrients, the micro and grow, worked well to provide our tomatoes and peppers with all they needed to develop into healthy plants with an abundant harvest. I tried a different product, a one part fertilizer before but that didn't provide the "Miracle" that was described on the label. Mixing was straightforward and multiple bottles of ingredients wasn't really complicated or an issue and besides they lasted the entire season. I used a deep water culture (a bubble bucket) that I read about on the web. All and all it was a fun experience worth repeating next year.

I've been using this product to grow everything that I grow- not just cannabis- for a few years now. It's a consistently reliable product that, once you know how to use it, performs well every time. I've grown spinach, chard, cucumbers, peppers, spicy peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, and (actual) flowers with this and the other 2 parts of this 3-part nutrient series. Once you know the nutrient needs of the plant, it always works!
I find that I only need anywhere from 12-20mL per 2 gallons of water per use. I wouldn't use more than 22-24mL in that much water unless whichever plants you are growing are very resistant to nutrient burn. I have had some plants that would get pretty upset if they were fed more than ~8mL to 2gal. I would recommend starting very low and working your way up.

A fast dissolving supplement for any flowering stage plants who love Phosphorous and Potassium. With the recommended 3 tsp dose, you'll bring the ppm to roughly 800-900 if added to water. With the P source especially, it lowers ph to the acidic side quickly w/o a buffer. So adding a 1/2 tsp of dolomite or quick lime (whatever u prefer, I like dolomite b/c It's reusable when balancing water ph) should balance out most of the acidic environment it creates.
Its a quick supplement to boost flowering production in many types of plants. Be careful though... you don't want to overdo it with nutrients.

I bought this thinking it was only a pint. I got a giant quart for a great price. As a gardener and landscaper for 5+ years I've used my share of liquid nutrients. When it comes to a line a nutrients this is the best and cheapest. I wish I wouldnt have used this from the start. I could only compare foxfarm line almost as good. Fox farm main fertilizer were real good but their supplements were out of wack. I would say that flora series does use a little to much potassium for hydroponics. And way to much for soil. But you can adjust that very easy the way it main fertilizers are set up

This is exactly what I was looking for. Although I had read horror reviews of others who received diluted/premixed nutes, this was not the case from Star Hydro. My nutrients arrived completely sealed and intact, and are definitely working as intended.
If you know what these are, then you know what they're for. Just know that they work as intended in my vegetation, and properly biodegrade in hydroponic solutions (Liquid nutrients not intended for hydro won't break down without soil bacteria).
I would definitely buy this product again.

This is a great product, as is the entire line of General Hydroponics flora series. I appreciate the ability to dial in each component for the various stages of my growing cycle.
This would be a perfect 5 star product if General Hydroponics improved the seal of the bottle. Every order has small leaks which dry on the outside of the bottle and create crusty salts.

Simple to use in the 3 part system, affordable, and it works. Very consistant results and it works for soil as well. This 3 part system in various ratios and ph's saved my veggies and perked up all my house plants. A much better system than miracle grow and the dyna-grow just didn't work as well for me.
I'll be buying this by the gallon come summer.

Do you want flowers the size of your head? Would you like plants that transition from vegetating to having giant fruits and vegetables in a matter of hours? If so this product is not for you, but if you want a great nutrient for a reasonable price, this will do the trick. I would recommend GH nutrients to anyone looking to grow hydroponically.

This stuff rocks! Use this in set with Floramicro and FloraGro and your plants will go nuts. Just some info on anyone researching Hydroponic Fertilizers- I've seen no stress from using these with soil or DWC(lettuce raft). And I have,at times,been generous with this stuff. The best priced liquid ferts i've seen so far. and they work great.
