Well this is my first year growing outdoor, and I am growing all blue dream because of the biggest yield. I want to get the biggest yield with the most potent MJ I can get. I was wondering what are the best nutrients to use during vegging stages to increase the size. What do you guy usually recommend? And how about during flowering season what do you guys usually recommend to increase the potency?? Budget is not a factor I am willing to try anything that has been proven to maximize my grow. BTW I am using fox farm for the soil.

DON'T BUY FOX FARM

Fox Farm nute suck, they are not 100% organic and they WILL burn your plants if you don't flush them with water every two weeks with 3-5 time the volume of the pot.

Buy Bio Bizz they are 100% organic, wont burn your plants, and you can get a started kit with all the parts you need for a crop.

What ever you use make sure it is 100% organic

It's not hard to be better than MG. Fox Farms isn't horrible, but there are a lot better options out there that are just as easy to find, just as easy to use, better for your health and the health of your plants, and the same price range as FF. I just switched to roots organic from FF and have noticed that FF was way more acidic and easier to burn with. It's also neon green like koolaid whereas organic nutes are dark brown, thick, and natural looking.

Get an organic nute like roots, flora nova or biobizz and some molasses. It will burn smoother and taste better with organics, plus it's just better for you. I used to think organic meant harder and more expensive but that just its true. And the plants love it.

I will definitely try those out. I am growing about 45 blue dreams, so I hope these do wonders to my plants :hello:

If money is not option the go with advance nutrients. Love it for my indoor but it cost a ton to use it all on a outdoor grow

Look I'm not just bashing Fox Farm cause I like Bio Bizz I used Fox Farm for 4 years and I did have some success but I also had a lot of struggles with nute lock and having to flush all the time it was a pain in the ass. I finally got a little lazy and didn't flush one time and lost 24 blueberry plants. ever since then I only use all organic nutes.

I first started with Advanced nutrients and had a lot of succsess but it is expensive and can get complicated. since then i've tried some others and Finaly I found Bio Bizz and I love it. I'll never use anything eles

Have you personally tried it on your crops? How was the outcome on this?

how far are you in? if your doing organics for veg you want to make your medium with worm castings or compost or both, and the other typical type of ingredients.. people use blood meal for serious growth but you gotta be careful. certain types of bat guano are beast as shit for nitrogen and/or phosphorus. jamaican bat guano is high in phosphorus and I'm thinking about transplanting my babes on top of some. I also used cotton sead meal.. theres all types of meal you can look into. i dunno if you're outside but i wouldn't touch blood meal due to critters unless you got some good fencing around your plants. Bone meals are also high in phosphorus. then you got cow manure, and other manures.. the list goes on and on. I find organics more fun just cuz you get to add it all with real things instead of a powder or pre mixed bottle.

Lets see I am about a month in, plants have been doing good so far just been watering every 2 days and they are loving the sun. Plants have been in the ground for nearly 3 weeks on going 4 weeks this saturday. I have not used any nutrients yet, I am still debating on what to use right now. So many different options but I guess it just depends on what I want to go with. A buddy of mine is using Urea through the vegging stages to increase nitrogen, do you guys think this is okay to just use? I know I am a little late in the season since I do have about a few months before flowering but I want to increase the vegging process as much as possible right now.
