What is Big Bloom by Foxfarm for?

I am doing my first crops at home. I have done a few plants in the window and then finishing under a friend's light. I bought Foxfarm Ocean something soil and Happy Frog. Mixed it together with Perlite. In veg I nuted with Fox Farm Grow Big. Then I switched to Big Bloom when I was budding. I got four weeks into budding when someone told me my Big Bloom is not a main budding nute. So I got Beastie Blooms for my budding nute now. Anyway, what the heck do I do with this Big Bloom now? Is it like a weak compost tea or something? I am using a compost tea now too. Schedule is water, dry, compost tea, dry, nute, dry, water, etc...

Any recommendations and what should I do with this Big Bloom?

Thanks :)

Big Bloom is your micro nutrients, while Tiger Bloom is the main flowering nutrient. Funny thing is, I don't use this stuff but I was able to go to Fox Farm's website and it explained each product in depth and even gave me the feeding chart. You should look into it. It's amazing what you'll learn from 5 seconds of research.
 
Dude the place your are getting these things from should have a fox farm nute chart, or get one online at the fox farm website. Beastie bloom is not a nute its an additive, your girls dont need it until buds are showing. Tiger bloom and big bloom is what you need for a base. Big bloom is kinda a tea like you said. It is made up of mostly worm casting and bat gauno. Its verry good for roots. Use it through out the grow along with the tiger bloom via the chart.

Thanks! I did an internet search to figure it out before posting, but came upon nothing. I will look at the actual Fox Farm website! Good idea ;)

If your brewing your own tea then no need to waste your money on Big Bloom. Grow Big and Tiger Bloom are the only other nutes you need. Save the solubles for outdoor grows....

Well actually ppl like to use the big bloom cause its organic, unlike grow big and tiger bloom which r both salt based nutes. Usually BB is used in addition to ur grow big in veg and with ur tiger bloom l8r, BB is sumptin ppl that wanna grow organic but don't make their own teas, if u look at ur GB bottle and u c all that EDTA and chelated metals in it, whereas in the BB its all natural stuff. I was gonna get a bottle of that tiger bloom 4 this grow but instead I decided to try makin sumptin from the Organic 101 thread there is this banana peel tea that's really ez 2 make and I throw in some molasses and at the end I add the BB@1/2 strength. From what I've talked about with others they say as long as ur not using nutes or teas that don't have all those salts in em u can reuse the soil in other grows, with some amendments of course. So that's y ppl might use the BB and not GB or TB.
