I'm at day 9 and have three PowerKush plants going. I'm using the following mix:

3parts Ocean Forest
3parts Happy Frog
1part perlite and a dusting of Dolomite Lime

I've got the Fox Farms tri-pack on standby. This is the first time I've used this mix though and I'm not sure when to start nutes. When do you all think I should start?

I would at least give them 2-3 weeks before starting nutes (aka at least 5 more days).

When you do start, start very watered down. Slowly build up and be very watchful for nute burn (if you dont know what this looks like go do a lot of searching for pictures of nute burn).

Biggest thing to remember start slow and weak and watch for burn.

Besides that you should be good :P

Sounds good.. thanks for the help! +rep :D

I love this strain. I got it as a freebie last grow and it turned out beautifully so I picked up five more seeds of it. Pic of last harvest's powerkush:

A little over 1oz; 22g was of the cola alone. Keep in mind it was flowered at only 15 days old. PK seems to be PERFECT for micros judging by my last grow and everything I've read. My avatar is of the cola for that bud I showed. The link in my sig is of the last grow too with a ton of pics from it. I'm too lazy this time around so I don't have a current grow log going. :oops:

I'm really loving my new mix. Last grow I used just OF and it burn the hell out of my seedlings. Meanwhile with my current mix the plants are loving life. :mrgreen:

YOU DO NOT NEED NUTES at least halfway thru veg when using foxfarm soils IMO. i used them this summer and started full nutes halfway through veg and everything was alright. good luck
