Nutrients are essential, but you don't have to feed bottled nutrients. If you don't want to feed bottled nutrients then you need to get quality soil, like super soil, and you need to grow in pots large enough to where the plants don't deplete the soil before they are done growing. Everything I've read seems to agree that the smallest pot size you want for a grow of that type is 10 gallons. I'm currently growing organically in 10 gallon pots.About to start my first grow...and I was wondering do you have to use nutrients when growing indoors? Or would the plants be ok with light and water?
I see most people use nutrients, but I was just wondering if you can grow a plant with just light and water?
i hope you are talking about a soil grow.About to start my first grow...and I was wondering do you have to use nutrients when growing indoors? Or would the plants be ok with light and water?

Yes I'm talking about a soil grow...like if I got some foxfarm soil, would nutrients be necessaryi hope you are talking about a soil grow.
Do some research on no-till growing...I think that is probably what you are looking for.Yes I'm talking about a soil grow...like if I got some foxfarm soil, would nutrients be necessary
phew, good! lol.Yes I'm talking about a soil grow...like if I got some foxfarm soil, would nutrients be necessary
Fox Farms Ocean Forest feeds on its own for 4 to 6 weeks in my experience. Depends on your light, the strain and the environment. But you can replenish your soil just by top dressing with more FFOF. No need for additional nutes unless you want to use them.Yes I'm talking about a soil grow...like if I got some foxfarm soil, would nutrients be necessary
not to sound like a smart ass, but how much do you have to top dress to make it til harvest? once, twice? and how much like in inches of adding to top of pot?But you can replenish your soil just by top dressing with more FFOF.
you'll know in a day or so what nutes they need or have too much in about a day or so! dirt is for racing.P.S. GO HYDRO!!
I used Happy Frog 8 years ago. Plants went great guns for two months, then “click!” plants developed multiple deficiency. At that point I fed with complete Gen Hydro til finish.I actually used a bag of happy frog recently and im not sure if it was a bad bag but plants went to shit quickly, i was almost positive they were not even close to needing nutes and sure enough i had to try something, feed them and bang they bounced right back, with that being said its the first time i ever had trouble that early with happy frog soil
with like a pee wee herman type bicycle? or a fatty mtb?But like a bicyclist on snow
Those beach bikes with the fat tires are soooo cheating.with like a pee wee herman type bicycle? or a fatty mtb?
Don't sound like a smart ass at all! About 0.5-1 inch a month in flower starting when you flip. Have to leave the final pot with some extra room. That assumes a standard 5 gallon felt pot and about a 4 week veg. Also this was under a 315CMH. I assume under a 1000w HPS this may be less effective! And obviously mileage will vary. Might be tough with a 16 week sativa ya know?not to sound like a smart ass, but how much do you have to top dress to make it til harvest? once, twice? and how much like in inches of adding to top of pot?
