If you want to give your plants the right food and stop paying stupid amounts of money for 80% water in bottled nutrients have a look into jacks 321 formula. Is so so cheap and It has everything cannabis needs and you use the same amount the whole way through.

You use from seed to flush
jacks 5-12-26
Jacks calcium nitrate
Epsom salts

I've been using this in my vege garden, and for my plants sometimes when needed.

Really need to use it together with the 15-5-15 Calcium + Magnesium LX or similar.

"Jack's 15-5-15 is a staple in many grower's fertilizer tool box. This is a truly comprehensive fertilizer with all the macro and micro nutrients in one tank. It can be mixed with other fertilizers in the Jack's LX line, which gives this formula a lot of flexibility.

"It contains 4% calcium and 2% magnesium (making it an ideal choice for water low in those nutrients), 80% nitrate nitrogen, and micro nutrients. Ideal for times when growing conditions are less than ideal or a grower is trying to hold plants at a particular stage of growth.

"Potentially basic, this formula will cause the pH in the root zone to rise over time, making this formula ideal for water types that are very pure or low in water alkalinity levels."

"I first used the 5-12-26 alone, but my veges were a mess because no Ca / Mg.
This would be even more of a problem with Canna.
Or something else with high Ca / Mg and micros.

Right now, my lettuces are doing amazing, harvesting enough for a meal every day or two in a small DWC unit.

Yes you have to use calcium nitrate And Epsom salts along with jacks 5-12-26 otherwise you'll run into problems
 
Are you on Insta? Check out @greengenesgarden all he uses is jacks 321 and some micro additibes. Also check him out on YouTube but you'll see all of his plants on Insta

Nope...don't do insta or facebook. I tried to join insta once, but as soon as they wanted my phone i backed out...and now when i try to go on a page it takes me to the signup part, so i have locked myself out of being able to see any instagrams stuff.... :shrug:

Look on his YouTube channel or type in @greengenesgarden Instagram on Google and you'll see his photos

Yup. I've also got lots of high Ca/Mg chicken poop fert and some other high Ca/Mg organic ferts in my soil mix.

For me, if I was going synthetic fertilizers, then the two above together would my best options here, by far.
Can't get all those fancy American and Euro canna nutes here, at all. And buying from overseas is big $$$$.

Make my own 2 part mix, which can adjust for vegging -- high N and Ca/Mg, or for flowering -- high PK.

I'm. In the UK and I bought jacks from America. It did cost a lot for shipping but a 25lb bag will last years so its works out at like £6ish per grow for 4 plants
 
500g = over 1 lb of 5-11-26 for about USD$4.50
and
500g = over 1 lb of 15-5-15 CaMg for about USD$5.00

That's over a lb of powder, not liquid.
Total would make about 600 to 1000 L of mix, = 160-260 gal.
