Should I give auto flowering plants miracle grow I've heard mixed opinions they are 40 days old and beginning to flower. I have them in 2 gallon pot and I used miracle grow potting soil with 60 day feed. I really don't want to burn them. This is my first auto grow.
 
If growth is solid and the new growth green not a little yellow compared to old growth then a small amount of phosphorous is indicated to help progress the flowering growth. The plant, if a regular auto will crap at 77 days- so about the time you would need to start flushing your soil will deplete-perfect! About 3 treatments (feedings) with a P additive-then let the soil deplete as that is natures way.
 
Hey Stoner420,

Sorry for the lack of reply - is Miracle Gro your only option? It'll work but it's really not the first thing recommended when you're strapped for nutrients. Do you have any Lowes, HD, or nurseries around you?

Which Miracle Gro is it exactly? There's a few of them.
 
also a curious guy ive got some miracle gro all natural is it ok to use if you need a nite boost
 
All-Natural being this one: http://www.amazon.com/Miracle-Organic-Choice-Natural-Concentrate/dp/B0092U7S3Q ? If so, yeah, it's 8-0-0 and made with fermented beets. There's a few things to look at when using MG;

#1. Is it "QUICK" or "INSTANT" release? If it is, then go to #2. If it's not, find a new bottle.
#2. Do any of the base nutrient ratings exceed 10? For example the bottle listed above is 8-0-0, if it was 11-0-0 it would exceed 10. If none of them exceed 10, go to #3. Otherwise, find a new fertilizer.
#3. Whatever the dosage is, cut it in thirds - for example that bottle says 1 to 10, 1 parts solution to 10 parts water. This would be 12oz of solution to almost a gallon of water (take 12oz off the top). Ideally, using the MG you'd mix 4oz (30ML or 2 TBSP roughly) to a gallon of water.
