And HOW DO U KNOW what one to use for vegatative and bloom,,,like what are the differences u should get?

  2. It will tell you right on the label what the numbers mean. They are the percentages for nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium respectively (N-P-K). For veg you need nitrogen, for flower you need phosphorus.
     
  3. oh ok thanks a ton man, all i knew before was that it meant 'grow/micro/bloom'..but now i accually know what they aree....thanks lots :)
     
  4. oh wait doesnt bloom go last? so wouldnt it be N-K-P? or is potasium for bloom?
     
  5. Its always NPK Nitrogen Phosphorus Potassium. For veg the N number should be the highest such as 20-9-9. For flower or bloom the P should be the highest such as 9-20-12.
     
  6. ohh ok thanks guys for all the help
