Advanced Nutrients questions
What is pH Perfect?
It is Advanced Nutrients' name for bases designed to settle your feed into the right pH range on their own. It cuts down on pH Up and Down. We still suggest checking pH with a meter, especially in coco or with unusual tap water.
Sensi or Connoisseur: which should I buy?
Sensi is the core base and suits most growers. Connoisseur is the premium line at a higher price. If you are new to the brand, start with Sensi, or Sensi Coco if you grow in coco.
Do I need every Advanced Nutrients bottle?
No. A base, plus cal-mag in coco, grows a full crop. Add 1 additive at a time, in its window, so you can see what it actually does. Running 3 boosters in the same week makes it impossible to tell.
Where do I find the Advanced Nutrients feed chart?
The Cultivator Series chart is on its product page. For the liquid range, follow each bottle's label at 75% to start, and use our feeding guide for target EC by stage.
