This is my second grow but my first using ff nutes. Ive got the grow big, tiger bloom, and big bloom. I know to use grow big first. The bottle says 2 tbs per gallon. My plants just came up through the soil. How much should I use?

also make sure your soil is nute free to begin with or adjust for whatever your soil has. make sure you got grow big for soil and not hydro as they are very different mixes and ratios

I got the trio from htg supply. I checked, they are soil. How do I know when I can go to 1/2 strength?

you will be into at least week 5. im using the solubles along with the trio. i vegged for six weeks and starting week 3 of 12/12 and gave them 1/2 strength of week 7 and it started to burn the tips of the leaves. so next water will be a flush.

the plant will start to yellow from lack of N. so a little stronger dose will help and you will see it get greener. but that also depends on what stage of growth you are in. its my first grow with foxfarms so im still figuring it out. each strain will act differently depending on its tolerence for nutes.

I havent grown in soil for awhile and never used fox farm nutes in soil. I use them in my hydro/aero grows and love them impossible to burn. I start full strength week one of rooted clones. I have used them enough and my high point ppm is naround 1600 or so.
