I am quite a strict vegetarian. No meat, no fish, no poultry. I won't eat anything that walks, swims, flies, jumps, crawls or slithers around etc.
Oh yeah, I don't eat eggs either.

I currently grow my plants using Canna nutrients (Terra Vega and Terra Flores) in soil.
I use Canna because I believe they are mineral based, therefore don't contain animal derived products.

I am thinking of getting a DWC bubbling bucket some time in the future.

I have noticed that a lot of nutrients, especially organic nutrients, contain horrid things like bonemeal, blood (possibly snot and bogies too) etc.

Does anyone know of any non-animal based nutrients suitable for hydro/DWC?

I advise you use General hydroponics 3-part. Grow-Micro-Bloom Start with quarts. I use this...Zandor use to use 3-part for a long time. I am in process of finishing greenhouse. I had to keep my seedlings inside a lot for the past month...I used GH 3-part on them, and They went crazy.

Gallons are better deals, but you better be sure you will stick with it. I buy gallons. superthrive is an additive that contains B-1 and other cheaply refined acids. If you want a potassium booster for flower. you can find several on the market. Or if you really know what you are doing..go to feed and seed...get; water soluble, greenhouse grade, Sulphate of potash...but you have to buy a 50lb bag

Good Luck

The closest to All veagn fertilizer that is commonly available, would be is FloraBlend by General Hydroponics , a veggie-based compst tea. an addititve or for seeds/cuttings, a 0-1-1. not really a fert.

from the label " FloraBlend is a Vegan Compost Tea that is fermented from a proprietary blend of plant materials, plus seaweed, rock powders and micronized leonardite.
To make Flora Blend, we take a diverse mixture of highly bioactive
FloraBlend is a vegan product containing no animal derived ingredients.
FloraBlend is great for both hydroponics and soil."

there is anotehr company, not as well know as gh, called BIO GENESIS. they make 100% Vegan liquid fertilizers.
