I am using Fox Farm Grow Big, Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom and would like to know about the feeding schedule. I have the print out and looked it over. It says that I should be using Grow Big and Big Bloom during Veg, is this correct? I guess by this Tiger Bloom is just for Flowering? Can anyone confirm this or let me know how you use these three if you use them.

Soil grow. 4 weeks old.

Thank you very much.

Yes the 1st 4 weeks use only only grow and big bloom. Make sure you note that Bloom is a table spoon and not a teaspoon like grow and tiger bloom. I must have been baked cuz I didnt even look at it again untill 3 or 4 weeks in :(.

Another thing you will use grow in weeks 7 & 8 into flower.

Hope this clears it up for you.

It does indeed, thank you. Considering that I put the nutrients into my gallon of water every time and water roughly every 3-4 days (as they tell me they need it) should I use half strength nutes in the water as they technically get the water (with nutes) twice per week. Which in theory would add up to a full dosage. Or does it not work that way?

rusty trichome recommends a feeding schedule like that, with watering with pH'd water in between as needed.

personally, i feed every other watering with a full dose.

this can vary strain from strain. these are good ideas, now you just have to tweak for your setup.

I 2nd that. I feed full all the time. I do watch and I start feeding young. I know allot of ppl say don't feed untill atlease 2-3 weeks in but I run 1/4-1/2 at about a week to build them up. I also use open sesime, beasty, and cha ching at 1/4 in the 1st 4 weeks for flowering just as the chart tell you to then up it to 1/2 in the last weeks. Just watch them close and build up on the stims.

Thank you guys. I will keep an eye out on them and figure out what they like best. So far, they seem very happy.
