I am using the fox farms ocean soil stuff. Can't remember the name. It's in the light blue bag with fish on it and it says something about ocean crap.

13) Specific brand and N-P-K ratio for each bottle. List dosages (quantity per gallon) and current feeding schedule.
I am feeding them with Open Sesame. It is distributed by foxfarms. The NPK ratio is 5-45-19. I feed the plants every other day. Recently I started adding in a tad bit of my veg fertilizer as well. It should be a pretty insignificant amount though. Like a spoon full in a gallon in a half of water. With the open sesame I am putting in one to two table spoons with a gallon and a half of water.
Ocean Forest: (from the Fox Farms website)
Garden tip: Perfect for containers and ready to use right out of the bag. Ocean ForestĀ® is pH adjusted at 6.3 to 6.8 to allow for optimum fertilizer uptake. Thereā??s no need for nitrogen fertilizers at first; instead try an organic blend like FoxFarm Big Bloomā?¢ Liquid Plant Food to encourage strong branching and a sturdy, healthy growth habit.
It's akin to Miracle Grow Organic...sort of. No nutes for the first few weeks minimum. Likely you've burned them but a good flush with properly ph'd water would be the first step in recovery. (asap)

Open Sesame is a late-stage additive in veg to force earlier flowering, I believe. Not intended for cannabis as a stand-alone nutrient. I'm not sure it has the micronutrients that Grow Big or Tiger bloom provide, either.

I only water when I feed them

16) Are your ph levels stable, or do they fluctuate?
don't know

17) What is your ingoing water's ph? ...your runoff ph?
don't know
Cannabis prefers a wet/dry cycle, so only water on non-feeding days if necessary, but don't let the ladies droop too much from lack of water, either.

Ph is a very important factor. Freshwater aquarium ph test kits, or a botanical ph test kit, or best case...a ph pen and calibrating solution are a must.
