Default Re: Banana Hydroponic's?

Here's the marketing pitch for CNS17:
Quote:
CNS17 - One Part, Professional Hydroponic Solution Designed with the commercial grower in mind, CNS17 is a highly concentrated, economical fertilizer that produces professional results at an affordable price.
It does not live up to any of this.
  1. CNS17 is not concentrated, it is very weak at 3% N, 2% P, and 4% K.
  2. At $24 per gallon retail it is not affordable. You can buy 1 gallon of better products for 1/2 the price or less.
  3. It is certainly not economical at $60 per net lb N, and $45 per net lb K.
  4. It is not a product for any experienced professional grower, since they are accustomed to paying $10 to $20 per net lb of nutrients in products with a much better array of micronutrients and non-nutrient ingredients.
