Hello, Question: I am growing 5 plants outdoor I am using fox farm ocean forest soil which has tons of nutrients so I figured that it would have enough nutrients to last through the vegetatibe stage and if this was true would I at least need fox farm big bloom and how many times would that be used. I mix up 1/4 of the bottles smallest directions in a gallon of distilled water. Would I ever need to use this nig bloom mixed gallon jug for the entire watering?And how old for an outdoor plant before you can see pistils or balls. Thanks in Advance for helping me out.

Should say right on the bag it lasts "30" days, so if you plan on vegging it longer then 4-6weeks id also get some veg. nutes as well as the bloom which im guesing should be 1tbs. per gallon every 3-4 weeks or 1 tsp. per gallon every watering.

yeah i use foxfarms soil my buddy works at the hydro store(and grows AMAZING crops) he told me to give them nutrients after 3 weeks, their accustomed to the soil at that point and wont go into shock as long as you introduce the new nutrients gradually.

oh and you dont need to use distilled water the entire grow, though it IS better for the plant than tap water its way to much money to be buying gallon jugs of everyday. and also you do need to get a little veg nutrient. the plants will show female or male characteristics after about 3-5 weeks. when their about 1 foot tall or a little taller.

Did you use the grow nutrient only once? Or did you use it once a week until you could see pre-flowers? Thanks everyone is helping me out alot.

i started with nutes after a week and used em everyother watering throughout the whole grow starting at 25% the first couple times then 50% then 75% then 100% but i only went 100% twice in veg and 2-4times in flowering..i also used bud blood a week before flowering which works hella good and it will force ur plant to preflower if it already hasnt and it will form more pre flowers..and i went 100%strength with that its some good shit
