Big Mike Straumietis

Michael Straumietis (aka "Big Mike") has done many things in his life. He is most well known for being the founder and CEO of the #1 marijuana fertilizer company in the world, Advanced Nutrients. But there's more to the story than just a cannabis business. Mike has also started a Bulgarian charity and a Bulgarian political party if you can believe that. He did this after seeing the crushing poverty of the people of Bulgaria and also seeing how their corrupt government--basically a mafia still leftover from the many decades of communist rule--took advantage of the people there. Today, Mike splits his time between Bulgaria and the United States while running Advanced Nutrients and entertaining his hundreds of thousands of followers on Social Media where he is known as "The Marijuana Don".

Advanced Nutrients manufactures fertilizers and supplements for marijuana plants. We should never forget that cannabis is grown primarily to be consumed by humans. Whether ingested or inhaled, most all cannabis plants will find their way into the human body. What’s more: many of the people ingesting cannabis are using it as medicine because it’s an integral part of their treatment therapy. Many of these patients face life-threatening diseases such as cancer.

Scientific testing was performed on Advanced Nutrient's grown cannabis by the respected BC Research Inc lab in Vancouver. BC Research Inc. protocols test for dozens of potentially toxic elements. Beryllium, arsenic, nickel, thallium, etc.— concentration levels in every specimen of dried plant material was below their lowest Detectable Limit (DL). In short, the lab found “...  Medical marijuana grown with Advanced Nutrients products is safer, in respect to heavy metals, as the water we drink ... Smoking 500 mg of this medical marijuana would be just as safe as ingesting 50 drops of extremely pure drinking water. ” The bottom line is that if you care about non-toxic fertilizers for cannabis growing, Advanced Nutrients is the proven winner.

Michael Straumietis is also known as "Big Mike" to many marijuana growers because of he not only has a larger than life personality, like a big teddy bear, but he is also nearly 7 feet tall! The truth is that for over three decades, Big Mike has been on a non-stop journey to help growers get the biggest harvests of the absolute best cannabis possible. That's why he founded the world-renowned company Advanced Nutrients which is now the leader in hydroponics fertlizers and supplements worldwide. People that know Michael know that he has a big heart also, that's why in the early 2000's when his heart was broken seeing the condition of the people of Bulgaria and their level of poverty, he started a non-profit charity there called "Holiday Heroes". To date, this charity has fed over 20,000 needy people and families every Christmas and Easter holiday. They give food and even small toys for the small children. What's more, because Big Mike was disgusted by the extreme corruption of the supposedly democratic government in Bulgaria (which was actually extremely corrupt and powerful due to decades of communist rule) he even organized a political party called Nova Bulgaria which is working to bring the hope of true choice, freedom and democracy to the people of Bulgaria that desperately need it.

Advanced Nutrients says this "our purpose at Advanced Nutrients is simple: to make the world passionate about growing plants hydroponically." And that looks like it's true. The challenges to growing hydroponically are legion, but this is just one of them. Unlike soil, hydroponic nutrient solutions do not have cation-exchange capacity (CEC) from clay particles or organic matter. The absence of CEC means the pH and nutrient concentrations can change much more rapidly in hydroponic setups than is possible in soil. And not keeping track of your pH can severely lock out and harm your plants growth and health. That's why Advanced Nutrients (also known as AN to many people in the industry) went through great efforts to produce their pH Perfect Technology®. Many growers find that manually checking and adjusting pH levels two times per day, to try to keep their plants growth stable and maximized is tiring, time consuming and one of the biggest hassles of growing. In short, as long as your water falls between 4.5 and 8.5 pH (which is pretty much everyone’s water) – this technology adjusts your pH for you and keeps it buffered there throughout your plants’ entire life cycle! Which means you’ll never have to manually adjust your pH… you’ll never have to worry that your plants aren’t in the premium growing environment. It's truly one of the biggest breakthroughs in hydroponics growing in over 30 years and it's all due to the plant pHD's that work at Advanced Nutrients and their tireless research and development to formulate the ultimate hydroponics fertilizers and supplements.
