Hey guys,
Trying to just find something off the shelf of home depot for my first grow. I have bought this schultz cactus droplet type plant food and wonder if the ratios look good. They also have the regular schultz which is 10-20-10 i believe and wonder if what I have would be better. I was under the impression that low N and high second two for flowering is very good.. Let me know what you guys think.... and as I said this is my first grow and I have already spent too much on my setup with HPS and fans and want to just have something that will do the job for ferts this time around so please no flames about the shelf stuff and/or just straight up say FF or AN as I know those are the good stuff...

Thx for the help guys and gals
 
its soil, they are under 400 HPS and are at 6 nodes and very healthy. 2 are bagseed and 1 is PPP if that changes anything
 
thank you my girls, I was thinking tho... If I used maybe a little more than the regular dosage on this stuff wont the ratios be very good for flower? I thought "the good stuff" was very high second two with low N. I may be wrong
 
You're at 6 nodes, for now you need a fertilizer with higher nitrogen and phosphorous content. Flowering, that 2-7-7 is fine.
 
mygirls: thx for the help. Isnt the K also important?
Kali: ya i'm using some 7-7-7 stuff right now at half strength with some blood and bone mix in my soil mix. Seems to be going great as my girls are growing especially after I started using the superthrive. I should be posting some pix later this week with my phone or cam so check it out. They look very good, I cant believe that i'm the grower lol.

thanks everyone for your inputs. I believe this will do fine as I have blood and bone meal both at quarter strength in my soil mix already so N will be supplied though this entire grow. If I go with the regular I will def go overboard with N in flowering so I think that this should work. Happy that all you guys are here to help. )
