no offence man but go read a book or something ...lol dont get me wrong..we were all on our first grow once...but your product in the end will be so much more worth it to you if you research what your doing and learn it and do it on your own for yourself..my cents.....peace

Ah, there's no need to be harsh on the guy. He's just learning and confused right now. I'll try and help ya out bro.

Right now, from what I have read, you are in the veg stage. Focus on that, only that. You're filling your head with a bunch of other stuff that isn't needed right now. Take small steps. Focus on the veg stage right now.

First off, the 3 numbers on the box, they stand for N-P-K. (N) as in Nitrogen, (P) as in Phosphorus, (K) as in Potassium. Here, I found this at overgrow.com, read:

N: nitrogen, used to stimulate new vegetative growth and overall health.
P2O5: phosphorus oxide, used to stimulate flower development and rooting.
K2O: potassium oxide, used to stimulate stem growth and overall health

N-P-K ratings on the labels of fertilizers are misleading at best. They represent N: nitrogen, P2O5: phosphorus oxide, and K2O: potassium oxide. These molecular compound ratios are not the same as the elemental ppm of the associated primary element, except in the case of N. They are only the guaranteed minimum amount of the molecular compound.

For vegetative growth, you want something that is high in N. Some examples could be 10-5-5 or 8-7-6. The only way to acheive these numbers is to buy them. Leave them up to the professionals to acheive.

Now, I know you're in the veg stage, read EVERYTHING about vegatative growth, then move onto the next step once you have accomplished the veg stage. I hope this clears things up. Feel free to ask questions after you've done your research, not before. Read read read. The FAQ's here and I strongly advise going to:

www.overgrow.com

Go to the FAQ's there, read. I have learned everything I need to know, with some guidence by the forums there, and here. I'm still learning. Good luck.

that is good advice, go one step at a time or when you :confused: get to the next stage you will still be asking the same questions>>>READ the growfaqs
and your questions will make more sense to the entire community.
