I just purchased a bottle of the fox farm grow big and it said it was great for veg growth and I wanted to get a real opinion or two on it. Also I'm not quite sure when to start using it it has a seedling section but mine are already in fox farm soil so I don't want to over kill them

go to foxfarm website and look at feeding schedule grow big isn't used until about 2-3 weeks and tiger bloom is used in flowering.

that looks like awesome info but I cannot look at any of it I've got no internet and on a phone lol but I'm seeing that more people use big bloom instead of grow big? But while I was at the store there were those 3 bottles grow big, big bloom, and tiger bloom and tiger and big bloom looked like they were pretty similar? Thanks for any help this is just my first true grow I've helped one person a little and my last one was hydro so I've got no idea where to go with this

Big Bloom 0.01-0.3-0.7, Grow Big 6-4-4, Tiger Bloom 2-8-4... Now the first number represents Nitrogen 2nd Phosphate 3rd Potassium, As you can see Big Bloom has very little concentration off all them and thats why its used alot more and longer than the others its really not much and wont necessarily get any nute burn. Grow Big is high in nitrogen used for veg state and Tiger bloom drops the nitrogen and increases Phosphorous for bigger flowers.

I used to use ocean forest, it was great, but ran a little hot for a couple of my strains... I did find something I really like though...

I use Happy Frog Organic now and I like it alot, been using it about 6 months now and also plan on sticking with it...

Old pic, used to use this...

tiger sucks gb is good
Here to raise the dead. They're ALL good!

I start big bloom/superthrive, at half strength, once my plant has its second set of true leaves. Then, on the next watering, I give it a full dose of big bloom. Once I have 5-6 nodes, I'll start slowly incorperating the grow big, at half strength the first cpl of feedings. I use airpots, so the soil dries fast, so I water about 2 times a week. I usually feed it grow big one of those times every 7 days. Big bloom with just occasionally get thrown in with a ordinary watering throughout the grow.

When it's time to flower or if autos shoe sex, I give my pots a major flush over a 2 day period.... then put em in 12/12. First dry out will be straight watering, from there on our, I feel tiger bloom at full strength, once a week, with the occasional foliar feedin when I catch the lights just going out!
