yes I am trying to read about PMDD and such. Part of the problem I have is that they each are reciting the same info and none take it from a "uhhh what?" standpoint.

potassium nitrate
mono potassium phosphate
trace mix
potassium sulfate

Those are the four you'll want to get.

Don't forget that CO2 is just as, if not more, important than these other ferts, if you're not doing that already.
