Alright so im going to attepmt my second grow. I am going to use Fox Farm Ocean Forest from seedlings to flowering. I am going to start growing 6 seeds non feminized. Once i put my seedlings in the Fox Farm soil i plan to put them under 160 Watts CFLs (daylight) per plant 16/8. Im going to give them only water the first 3 weeks when soil is dry. Then im going to fertilize them with Fox Farm Nutrients. I believe i use big grow first? I do have some questions regarding transplanting i understand good drainage and everything, but what i dont understand is if i am using nutrients can i use transplant root stimulator powder ? And do i have to wait till my soil is dry so i wont over water ? After its done with the veg stage i plan to put them under HPS lights 12/12. Then for flowering im going to use Tiger bloom and Big Bloom I believe. Im not worried about the drying as much just the grow. Will my plants be healthy or do i have to add more to it ? I know the temps have to be below 80 and higher than 60 if i am correct. Also for the nutrients does it automatically come with the correct nutrients or are there specific ones i need to buy. For example (6-3-3) for veg and then theres 8-5-5 for veg. Im just not fimilar with a few things.
Sounds like your gonna do just fine! The NPK ratios fluctuate between products and companies. Any company you pick makes a base for veg and one for bloom. You'll be fine with any you choose.
I am partial to the General Organics line, because of it being organic and not having to pH balance anything. It really simplifies things I'm getting the best product I've ever gotten, I love used just about everything under the sun. Just a thought if pH'ing and heavy flushing get tiresome...
Here's the feeding schedule, would be nice if they included one with their nutes right? Thos are good nutes too btw, yielded me 381 grams from a 4x4' box using just the trio and a little cal-mag plus. It's a good idea to start at half doses and work up to full over a week or two if they don't burn with these. Different strains have different uptakes.
