Hi,

I hear all sorts of good things about Fox Farm for hydro.
I'm looking for a nute schedule if someone has one to share.

Which FF nutes for veg, and at what pH, then we move to initial flowering, then final flower.

Some people use just one nute, others blend.

Thanks!

HI :thumbsup:

I love Fox Farm and use a lot of it.
This will get you in the ball park for the feeding.

Thanks a lot for that link Dread. Do you use full strength? I've heard that the nute people can overprescribe the amount of nutes to use.

Do you keep details about pH and PPM nute levels?

Projman- it's always a good idea to start weak, and work up, noting your EC all the way. Every strain is different, from Sativas that are finicky, light eaters like an anorexic snooty sorority girl, to Power Plant which is like that dude at the 24 hour Chinese buffet who doesn't appear to have moved from the booth in a month.

So choose your strain, and buy a notebook and an EC meter, and keep notes. Does the plant loo hungry? Write that down, along with the pH, EC, life stage, and room temps. Does it look burnt? Write that down too! Then review your notes and you will see how to feed the plant you are working with.

Thanks Stinky. There are threads that document GH nutes in infinite detail. Detailing the pH and PPM (EC) salt levels, and at what stage of growth.

I was hoping to find such a "recipe" for Fox Farm nutes.

Hey Projman !!!
I Do Not claim to be a Hydro expert, probably worst Hydro grower ever.
I just provided the schedule you were looking for.

I got 1 hydro grow under my belt.
It was actually an aeroponic grow.

If you listen to StinkyAttic you will not go wrong.

I use the Grow Big, Tiger Bloom, and Big Bloom at Full Strength
the Cha Ching, Open Sesame and Beasty at lowest dosage recommended.

Good luck

Dread,

The Attic is a famous contributor, no doubt. Likes Botanicare, I believe.

You use 6 FF nutes? Where did you provide the schedule?

Thanks a lot!

Now reading more of Stinkyattic's posts and see that he's using Canna Aqua. I like the pH buffering ideal in the cannabis range. That's a big plus.

Problem is that there are so many Canna Aqua products. Is there a simple product schedule that works for you Stinkyattic?
