I am a second time grower, my first plant did not yield much because i did not have everything needed. No i have a grow box a beautiful super silver haze which is a month old and looks awesome for her age. I am tryig to apply the fox farm trio according to te chart. I mix one gallon with 3 tsp. of tiger bloom and another gallon with 3 tsp. Tiger bloom. Do i apply both at the same time? Do i mix and fed? Or do i feed one nute then nothing the next day , water on the third day and second nute on fourth day? Please help i am just someone trying to get it right. Thanks again
 
when i did soil, i fed my plants every 3rd watering. and i only watered when the soil is two inches dry from the top. normally, for veg, you want more nitrogen.

if your a beginner, why dont you look into the lucas formula? you cant go wrong with that ever.
 
okay I have seen a grow go all the way through with thoes nutes so hopefully i can guide you (keep in mind it was only bagseed) start giving the nutes after the second week and only at 25% of whats recomended on the feeding chart, when your plants get a few more nodes on them (OR are starting to look hungry) increase it to 50%. It was best to only feed every other week, feeding every week causes nute burn and a generally sad looking plant. Again there are alot of variables when it comes to nutes just remember that the plants will tell you EXACTLY what they need :) you can mix them all in the one gallon jug if you want I would just get a 5gal bucket w/ a lid and mix up a big batch (thats my way of doing thigs) IM only on my second official grow but i do "know a guy" lol who has good experence and gave me the advice im sharing now with you ;) GL HF !!
 
I would definitely use the lucas formula next time, right now i already purchased the fox farm trio. Stewart when i mix the five gallon do i do one 5 gallon for each nute or multiple nutes in one five gallon? If it is seperate containers do i water with both nutes every other week or do i use 1 of the 2 every other?
 
if you want to stick with fox farm, go to their website and follow their recommended feeding charts. improvising without knowing leads to failure
 
Yes i have the chart, my question how do you use the chart. I thought i made it clear that i have the chart and dont undertand how to use it. Do i mix all these teaspoons of different things in one seperate and how to administer???
 
noooo.. dont ever add the concetrated nutes together. nutes are measures are in mililiters or teaspoons. just add whatever it tells you to add to a gallon or 4L of water. feed the water to your plants or add it to your resevoir.
 
If your going to use ff nutes , you should flush very often !!
I would use half strength,
Salt buildup sucks
 
Yes i realize the chart says to flush, but no one is answering my question. Once i have seperate gallons of ff nites, the chart is telling me to use both nutes in one week!!! Do i use both at once? How do i water 2 nutes in 1 week?
