my lady is getting big and now begun flowering. have not fed her the past 2-3 weeks because i ran out of big bloom. do you think it is okay that i use the grow big and tiger bloom without the big bloom? i know the trio are carefully engineered for a good even balance of nutes but would it be so bad if i did the regular schedule without big bloom for like one week, i have ordered more but its coming in 4 days. just seems really nice weather and a perfect opportunity to seize the chance of that final push of growth before she goes into full flower production
 
Big bloom isn't really an npk mix. It's only 0-0.5-0.7 (or something like that). It is mostly there for the micro's. You can leave it out. If you can get some kelp, or some other amendment that has a lot of micro's it wouldn't hurt, but unless you are noticing a deficiency you are ok for now.

thanks, going to feed her right now
 
No insult intended but, what is the reason so many pick FF nutes to start with....Not good stuff, or you can do better.....


Any way, Big Bloom is mainly your micro's. If your in real soil, you don't need it.....

In my case, it was strictly a nube falling for social marketing. I've since gone sips with a super soil mix. I topfeed with worm drippings, recharge, mammoth p, etc once in a while, but for the most part they get water and ipm.

But they hooked me before I knew better. I even have a full kit of Remo nutrients I won as a prize and haven't broken a seal yet.
