I've done a lot of research and want to grow my first plant, but i'm still really confused about the nutrients. If i'm watering it by hand, do I just insert the nutrients inside the water sprayer? I'm confused as to figuring out the Nutrients:Water ratio. Do I figure out which nutrients I need by measuring the pH of the soil? I've read so many different things that I'm just confused as what exactly to do.. Does anyone know good nutrients that I can buy on Amazon or something? Or does someone have a pre-made nutrient plan that is easy to follow? ALso i've read that you need to water your plants once every 3 days, but some say they need watered 3 times a day. Which is it? Thanks for the help guys :]
1) Dont use a sprayer...cannabis plants dont foliar feed very effectively...also there are more negative side effects the come from spraying. Whenever you buy nutes just look at the directions on the back...will probably give you a certain amount per gallon you should mix in. Start off with about 1/4 of the recommended dosage. 2) No the ph of the soil tells you what nutrients your plant is able to take in. Only when its at the optimal ranges does it have access to all the nutrients it wants in your medium. PH link 3) As far as nutes you can check out the fox farm line: grow big, tiger bloom and big bloom. 4) Some people need to water everday...some people only have to water every three days. It all just depends on the different variables inside your grow box. http://forum.grasscity.com/advanced-growing-techniques/330991-fertilizing-wisely.html
