    Basic Watering?

    Ok so everybody has their own way of water/feeding their plants. I was just wanting some oppinions and suggestions on when and how YOU water/feed YOUR plants.

    Do you use full strength a few times then go to a lower strength or do you use full strength the entire time and stop and flush with ph'd 2 weeks prior to harvest.

    Also I am using FoxFarms BeastiBloomz. 0-50-30, or Should I use FoxFarm TigerBloom 2-8-4, Or can I somehow use the 2 together. I watered her for the first time of flower on 7/2 with the BeastiBloomz.

    Just wanted a few oppinion/suggestions on how YOU water your flowering plants. Or how I should feed mine?

    Thnx,

    Basic Watering?

    I think FoxFarms has a feed schedule on their site for how to combine the Beastie and Tiger.

    I water when the pots feel light, or the plants look sad
    I like to alternate plain tap water and fert water. When I give either one, I like to water heavily enough to get water coming out the holes. It's a mini flush, and helps prevent salt buildup in the soil.
    After a transplant, I water with a weaker fert.
    During periods of rapid growth, I give as stiff a cocktail as the plants will swallow without wincing.
    Near harvest, I taper it off to plain water in the last week, and make sure EVERY watering is a very heavy one.

    Keep in mind that I have been using the same nutes and the same strain for a year. I know how the plant reacts. If you are not familiar with the nutes, start at 1/4 strength and gradually move up if no signs of burn.
