But as far as using all the nutes the guide says, i dont. I only use the 3 parts, carbo blast, ton o bud, heavies and bud bloom in a foliar spray. I have used all of them but personally i dont think it is needed. The 3 part nutrient does a very good job on its own if used right and the additives i use just pound on the extra weight! I dont use propogator because of the fact you cant use it with any other nutrient, so be careful with that one if you didnt know. I just use Canna start for my clones under my cfls and as soon as i switch to HPS i start with the 3 parts. I would advise to maybe go a little under the guide for the first week just see how your plants react if no problems crack on and follow it... Best of luck |

I just got this today. This is a my frist plant.. so I don't really know where to start. I've got 4 litte seedlings that just surfaced after a couple days. When should I start using these nutes and what is the 'micro" formla for? It doesn't even have The blue formula on the feeding chart.

Are you reading the chart on the side of the bottle? Cause mine has numbers for all 3. Look it up on FHDs website, there is a pdf with the chart on it too. |

so for every 4L I put 2ml of micro, 3ml of grow, and 1 ml of bloom? Sorry if I sound stupid... but again, this is my frist grow. EDIT: I did some more reading and I think I get it now... from what i understand.. I make a solution with water for each bottle. As the plant advances I change the portions of the solutions. It woulda made more sense if each bottle was label by N,P,K instead of micro, grow and bloom... Is this right? man.. thought I know alot better with me taking chemisty.... btw, i'm using a premade potting soil mix called Tropical Mix. It contains peatmoss, humus, compost and perlite. It doesn't have any nutritional values on the bag. But do u think theres enough nutrients from the compost and humus to last a few weeks?

1 last question. The chart says for ever 3ml/4L(grow), 2ml/4L(micro), 1ml/4L(bloom).... Do mix each one into 4L of water then mix together? or Mix each into just 4L of water?

Mix them all into 4L of water. The label suggests adding the micro first, then the grow, then the bloom, but I haven't found it to make any difference at all.

They may as well have labled them A B and C, especially since the "bloom" formula has more N than P or K and what have you. ![]() For the most part their feeding chart is pretty accurate, but a little hot, I find myself using about 1/2 to 3/4 of the recommended amount. I'm not familliar with that soil mix, but it has food in amounts you're unsure of, so I wouldn't feed the plants until they show signs of nutrient deficiency like yellowing leaves. It would be a shame to burn up your plants before they get a fair chance. I take it this is your first foray into growing marijuana. (if not, sorry) Let me just say, cannabis is a pretty easy plant to grow, so long as you're patient and pay attention to what your plants are telling you. Do some reading, you can read Jorge's grow bible, marijuana botany, and a bunch of other great books for free on scribd Check out some videos. This is a good place to start. If you ever have any questions, feel free to drop by my journal (in my signature) and ask. I've been growing for a few years now and have made alot of mistakes that I can hopefully prevent you from making. Anyhow, welcome to the club, and happy growing. this buds for you.
