Fox Farms Nutrients Feeding Sceduehl Questions?

Can someone supply me with a correct feeding schedule for Fox farms TigerBloom, Growbig, and Bigbloom. I'd like to know how much water to mix it with for a 3 week old plant, 4 week old plant, etc, and how much nutrients to put in (tbsp).

Thank you very much for anyone considering to help me!

Man you can find the informations here

I am a costumer from fox farm in my opinion the schedule you should use 50% of they said and see how your plants will respond
Take care just with big bloom man in my case in hydroponic every week I need to clean every bucket because of sediments on the bucket but that is because is organic

Im using soil not hydroponics, But im guess im just going to do half strength so a half tsp every other watering until she gets big then full strength one tsp every other watering? that's not going to burn her?

The table for soil is in that link also.

I would start out using 1/4 nutes then gradually work your way to 1/2 nutes. FF is known for burning your plants if you follow their feeding schedule. I put about 1/2 a tbsp of dolomite lime in my soil for each gallon of soil. So in a 3 gallon pot i put about 2 tbsp, this helps keep your soil's ph near 7.0 because tigerbloom is so acidic. Make sure to flush your plants every 2 weeks of flowering as well.

depends on the strain honestly, some strains will take full strength and be happy with it but most will be burned so i suggest u follow what i said above.

i start with a 1/4 strength every other watering and go up from there man! good luck

well if you look at their soil chart linked by a above poster it says for week 3 use 3 tsps of grow big. as other users said start with half a dose and see how she takes it. if shes got some yellowing in the leaves give it some more maybe even give it the full 3 tsps. but for now give it 1 and a half tsps in a gallon of water. PH it after you add the grow big. oh and its tsps(teaspoons) not tbsps (tablespoons). you get those mixed up and you might have a problem

Wow and you didn't even look for the soil schedule, does your mom wipe your ass for you too?

I apologize if this is considered hijacking, but I am new to FF as well and although I read the schedule, I still have a question. It says in week 6, add 3 tsp of big bloom and 2 tsp of tiger bloom. I water my plants 3 times a week, so do I add that amount for each of the three waterings for that week or just for one watering that week?

thanks

I use fox farm, and don't use the chart no more, because it was not working for me. I go by what my plants tell me.

FF advises you feed (use nutes) every other watering.

Thank you both for the replies.
Every other watering regardless, or every other watering during the weeks when it says to use the nutes?

I start feeding nutes after the seedlings are about 2 weeks old, then I continue feeding nutes until the last 10-14 days before harvest. That's when you flush your plants. so during that whole time u are feeding nutes from seedling to pre harvest it's every other watering

Perfect. Thanks for clarifying. That's what I had originally thought, but then I read the feeding schedule and thought every other watering would be too much. Now I am in my 5th week of flower and the leaves are already yellowing. So I just added growbig into my regiment (just had tiger bloom before) and hopefully that will bring in enough nitrogen to even things out.( I know that leaves will naturally yellow near the end of 12/12, but I have not seen this yellowing at 5 weeks before).

do you also use Big Bloom? I wouldn't add any more nitrogen (Grow Big) at this point. Next time use the trio from the get go, your plants will stay real healthy and green till the end. Personally after week 4 flower I stop feeding the Grow Big and only use the Tiger and Big Bloom. If you feel you need to add some N don't use too much if you do at this point. Good luck

I've found that using FF (probably any liquid nutes) in soils that contain time released ferts (Miracle-Gro and most big box brand potting soils) to be very challenging. I was burning my plants at 50% strength even after they had been in the same pots/soil for over a month. Flushed and transplanted to a soilless mix and they are handling 80% just fine. I use the 3 part system, R/0 water with cal-mag. The Big Bloom doesn't last long either so stock up.

No Big Bloom, just tiger bloom and now grow big. I had a nitrogen deficiency, so I needed to add something. They are both on the FF feeding schedule for the week I am in. I am not using much. and I will stop with the grow big in a week.

Deemster:
I started with soil made from half FF Ocean Forest and half FF Happy Frog, so all organic and no time release stuff.
