So beginning week 5 on my girls and i had to increase my grow area another few square feet to accommodate how much they are bushing out....
I was beginning to look a bit cramped in there, but i sorted it out and wanted to address the light green, slow development of my new growth. So i hoked on out to the local growshop and hydroponics supply, and was recommended FoxFarms Grow Big. Has anybody had any experience with this product as a veg nute?
Going back next week to prep for cloning, going to run this stuff for 2 weeks and and start flowering.
 
Hey , i have tryed almost everything and grow big is a basic 1 part chem veg base nutrient. I didnt really care for the structure it gave my plants, it gives plants fewer but larger fan leaves, more of a woody stem and branch build. Your plants will be healthy but there are way better base nutes out there. If your growing in soil i would not use it is super salty and you will need to use some flush/leaching tech...inorder to avoid buildup in soil. Im looking at an old bottle now and the cap is just caked with green salt....general organics bio thrive grow with bottle of cal/mag will give you great results and an amazingly bushy nice plant and its easy for starters and great for the microbes in the soil....you will like it way better.....goodluck

I have had good luck with the FF trio (Grow Big, Big Bloom & tigers blood). I haven't had a problem with to much build up, and I don't flush. It is easy to use, I think there schedule for flowering is pretty good, probably a little heavy handed for veg so I don't follow their veg schedule.

There are definately tons of options out there, and some are much cheaper and just as good if not better than Fox Farms but if your getting started it is not a bad way to go.

I have never used anything but FF Trio and have never had any deficiencies or lockout problems. I also use molasses, Epsom salts, and FF ChaChing and Humbolt County Snow Storm Ultra. I grow in soil and use only rain water that I collect. Good luck!

Thanks for the advice, thinking of picking up some Hammer Flush since I'm about 2 week into flower,and at least 1 of the 4 is definitely a female (sprouted pistils this morning). Two had Pollen sack clusters developing, had to rip 'em.
The Grow Big actually bushed them up substantially, but i want to flush before i supplement my Big Bug for addtl P-K.
