I'm gonna try the nuets. So here's my question. Big Bloom, Grow Big and Tiger Bloom are sold as a tro pack and on their feeding schedule it shows all three being used at the same time? I'm I reading this right? After seeing some of y'all's, Bgrt, grow journals I'm starting to see that I'm missing some thing and I know it's nuets. So I gonna start but I want to do it right. I know I need to start with roughly half of their recommended feeding and to build up slowly. But how often do you flush your plants so they don't get nuet lock out? I know I need to use r/o water. Has any one had any luck with Sledgehammer? And how much do I adjust for growing auto's seeing how thats all i grow?

http://www.canna-uk.com/growguide maybe this one wil help budd :smokebuds:

edit: just realized that u`r not growing in coco, that morning smoke got me abit tipsy..lol ^^ sry budd :cough:

im growing in coco, so im feeding them with neuts all the time,only planning toi flush the coupple of weeks before harvest:check: and i also only use plain spring water. works like a charm for me still. think we got some great water upp here ;D

start with half feed and work upp sounds fine budd.. since they`ve been given food alittle late and are alittl stretched now, they can go up to full strenght very fast i would think

go into general discussion and ask there about feeding maybe...im sure you`l get some better answers :buds:

yeh most come in threes or twos its because certain chemicals change when they contact others in a mix after a while, they become salts(?) that the plant cant use so they cant ship as one or it would be ineffective.
also why you should mix micro into the water first, stir, grow, stir, bloom (or so i was told atleast)

i have fed every time prettymuch this grow with no real overfeeding signs. muddy on here says to feed lightly every time and let about 15% runoff from the pot so that gets rid of the built up salts. it seems to be true anyway im feeding over the shedules for photo plants recommended ml's cause they seemed hungry i just worked up slowly and watched out for signs of overfeeding. one of the plants got a bit screwed by it i think but the others are fine anyway. just got too green and got some mutant leaves but its a nice plant anyway and big enough still. that was due to my lazyness giving them all the same feed instead of tailoring each to what they needed.
others alternate water and feeds to stop buildup but its the same idea and constantly feeding carefully lets them have all they need when they need it.
i never flush its more for fixing problems with your soil, extreme ph or overnuting etc. at the end of the grow i just feed water no nutes. only doing it for around 4 days this time. but i tapered off on the feeds to low levels. most do that plain water for a week or more.
i chopped a plant last grow cause of a herm day after feeding strong flower nutes and it was fine no bad taste or anything. i think thats more from overnuting near the end.

keep up with your runoff ph and lockouts shouldnt happen without drastic overfeeding. just start low and gradual.
different strains have different maximums.

also yours are looking great, look back at the start of my journal theyre not far off that possibly even smaller.

this is day 24 for the smaller ones for comparison. i think you have one node more than me in those pics from the same age.

end size is down to how many problems you had early on, pot size, whats available to it (air, food and light) and luck in the genetics i think. just try to get close to perfect on every front!

Day 28. It takes my girls a full week to absorb a watering. Next watering I'm gonna feed with Grow Big and Bloom Big. Schedule say to feed together during veg so I will.

sounds right my friend. i actually where going to grow in soil, but changed to coco in the last minute. and remember i was supposed to use bloom and grow together.. biogrow and biobloom i think it was.

looking nice

Day 32 that feeding did my girls good! Health lush green leaves, and tons on bud sights! Growing is way to additive! My 1000w dimmable hps will be arriving soon, my girls deserve more.

#2 was hungry so I feed her 2 liters of water with 3tbs Big Bloom, 1&1/2tbs Grow Big and 1/8tsp Super Thrive. We'll see if she can handle it! On another note got my 8" hurricane 740cfm fan into day! Now I just need to connect my can to it. First we take baby steps. Soon my new grow room will be built!
