i use the fox farm trio along with the solubles in sunshine mix, same as promix.
i use this schedule at 1/4 strength until around week 5 or 6 then i go to 1/2 stength. you will see what they need. i veg for 6 or 7 weeks so i stay on week 4 until i switch to 12/12. i never used ffof.

pending on the soil u using or your soil mix u dont gotta add nutes for about 4-5 weeks .. if using ocean forest u dont gotta do nutes for a good month... wich during veging it needs more nitrogen.. and thats the Bat guano and earthworm castings.. wich ocean forest comes rich in

i feed every other water and just water every other. i do a bunch of different strains at one time so each plant responds different. i lift the dry pot see how heavy. i water until a little water comes out of the bottom. you will get the hang of it as you go as to how much each plant needs just by the weight of the pot.
if it says 1 tsp. per gallon then i do 1/2 or 1/4 of that 1 tsp. per gallon. that foxfarms is pretty powerful and to much to early not good. but after a month or so life is green

if you see the plant isnt up to the green it should be then up the dose a little more. just go easy.

my first grow with foxfarms at week 6 veg. im at 1/2 strength using week 4 on schedule at 18/6. i will go to 12/12 soon and start week 5 at 1/2 strength on the feeding schedule. i will only go over the 1/2 strength if the plant tells me it needs it.
