I use them but in a hydro system, Which I dilute to 30%. So its about 1/2 a teespoon for 1 gallon of water.

I'm still a beginner to growing, but I've been using Fox Farm GrowBig for vegging. I also use the mixture which is recommended on the bottle (1/2 tsp per gal) and I've heard you don't have to worry about burn as much with the organic ferts.

Start off at half strength, see how they react and then slowly move up to full recomended strength. I haven't use the FF, but this is a good rule of thumb to follow.

my question is what do you go bye the bottle or the chart from their website,both are different?

[escort31]

like the big bloom , the bottle says 4 teaspoons per gal,and start using at the first sign of flowering.the chart says 2 teaspoons during veg and 1 teaspoon through flowering.what one is more accurate for growing weed?

[slowthestone]

Follow the chart...

It's scheduled at 12 weeks for a reason.

i think the chart says 2 tablespoons for the big bloom

Honestly. I may look like a newb for this being my first post and all but this is just because I just found this site. SO bear with me.


I have used many different fertilizers. Fox Farm makes a great product. It does lack on the nitrogen side for flowering, but good none the less. When I did use the fox farm bloom ferts my schedule was this.

Its easy. Follow the chart, except cut all the measurements in half. Example. 1 tbsp on the chart would = 1.5 teaspoons. Or 2tbps would = 1 tbps. Over ferting a plant is ALOT worse then under fertlizing. The plant could be grown with straight water and Fox Farm Ocean Forest or any other good soil from start to finish. We just know it proven you can get better results with adding ferts, co2 etc. Stick to the liquids if using the liquids. I wouldnt worry about the cha ching and the other solid ferts on the chart. Only fertilize ONCE a week. Also, I like to flush in the middle of the 8 week flowering peroid to ensure salt levels stay very low. Happy Growing.
