So I've got some brand new Advanced Nutrients grow/micro/bloom, and a remaining bottle of diamond black (humic/fulvic acids) and Biothrive Bloom, and Biobud from General Organics.....would combining any of the organics with the AN make any sense at all, or am I just asking for trouble??
 
KIS is always best IMO.
If you are set on mixing formulas look for redundancy between products. Personally I would not try to use 2 main sources for potassium for example. Rather I would look for the best way to deliver the one I choose. I.E. Beneficials etc. If you tag the base you do not have to go back and tag it again.
 
I presume:
Humic/fulvic acids: Should be able to use this with any base nutes. [I often add Black Diamond at low level, about .5 mL/L].
Biothrive Bloom looks like an early bloom booster but with a good amount of N. Could be redundant. You should be able to get good bloom feeding ratios mixing the 3 AN components.
Biobud looks to be generic bloom phase-targeted kelp and/or other mix of natural growth factor extracts (like AN Nirvana?). Should be able to use this with any base nutes. [I usually add <1 mL/L Nirvana to every feed, from sprout to harvest]..
 
As I stated in another thread a new bean I popped is essentially just going to get teas. I think for veg a tea rich in neem (nitrogen) and for flower a tea rich in Bat Guano (potassium). Generally all teas will get kelp, alfalfa, worm, humic, fulvic, some silica, I'm in coco so cal mag, epsom...
Not sure how azomite, bone meal, and that kind of thing works if at all in teas.
Obviously beneficial fungi and bacteria.
I have a ton to learn. If anyone has any thoughts or experience it would be appreciated.
 
My personal opinion is that you should avoid most of AN products. They are chemical solutions and as most likely the buds you produce will end up in your lungs or stomach it is not a good idea...
Since you are most likely in soil or Coco take advantage of this and stay organic. Get a base grow and a base bloom organic fertiliser and use a humic/fulvic acid activator like top max and a bloom booster like bio bud. Every 15 days add an organic supplement with extra l-aminoacids and kelp extracts and you will be fine.
If you decide to use a dry, slow release organic fertiliser also use top max and bio bud in your water.
By staying organic you can actually get a heavier crop and of course quality will have a huge gap with chemical nutrients.
Actually the less you feed the more you get both quantity and quality wise. Yes chemical fertilisers can produce a lot of weight - if you are lucky and your plants are not burned - but this is not weed it is a chemical monstrosity more like lettuce on steroids...
Ok hydro is different not so many options but there is a clear tendency the last few years for companies to create mostly organic hydroponic nutrient lines, because people want quality weed.
