Quick help needed

[KGod86]

growing 2 plants in 1 gallon buckets running under 8 floro lights 3150 lumens each in a 4 sq ft box, both plants are bagseed, dominant salvia strain, nice fat leaves, plants are 25 days old and are 8 inches tall, nice green color, on day 22 i gave them thier first nutrients which was all purpose miracle grow, i plan on putting them on 12/12 on day 28 right now they are on 24/0, today i bought some 5-30-5 for the flowering stage, my question is, how often should i feed them the 5-30-5 and how much, it calls for 1 tps per gallon of water if i nute every month, also since i just gave them miracle grow when would it be a good time to give them 5-30-5?
what other nute could i add to the 5-30-5 that would be good?

thanks

dear kgod,

you may want to try a 15 30 15 for the first stage of flower, in my exp. extra nitrogen for the first 4 weeks of flower outdoors really makes a big difference in final yeild. however, this was done to my outdoor grows, i'm on my first inside grow now at day 14. doublecheck to make sure, but i think 15 30 15 might just be better for you.

love, brooke

thanks, anybody else with advice?

how far are your flo's from the plants? they should be taller than that, how many nodes? also, i've noticed(from very recent and accidental circumstances) that using double the amount of MG produces much greater developement. i even went as far as 3tsps of 24 8 16 per gal, and then had only slight burn. a quick 2 quart flush fixed that, and here 2 days later, plant are seriously "miraculously growing!!" these fuckin things are growing like weeds, lol! day 15 of veg and plants are 8 to 12 inches, squat, bushy, 4-7 nodes and lush as hell! they all grew about 1 1/2 - 2 inches today!!

for my out door grows, i used 1 1/2 tabspns per gallon and used once a week(15 30 15) watering with ph balanced water every three days. stopped nuting 20 days before harvest.

i may be contradicted, but i am speaking from my own personal exp. if any one else has good info or exp, please share. like i said this is my first INDOOR grow, and i would also realy appreciate advice or help of any kind.

hope this helps you K!!

love, brooke

try something else rather the MG. Go organic or like bat gauno or stuff like that, it would give u better results. Its good to start off light then about the 3rd thru 5th week pick up the dosage, then start to bring it down again till the 2 weeks of harvest. Then completely stop, and do a flush:thumbsup:
