NEW GROW SETUP (Budget)

Yeah you can use the FF nutes with your current soil but I would def flush and just ph water it for 2-3 weeks before adding the FF again. Just to make sure that you got all the old nutes out and don't accidently start this whole process again. I am very against the use of vigoro on our plants especially by us newer guys seems to lead to problems real quick and real easy cause I know I dillutated the hell out of it myself.
Yea I dilluted the shit out of mine but Ill go with what ya experienced. I found some FF nutes tiger bloom and grow big that im gonna buy. Hope these products work well...I see everyone uses them.

That's what I am using on my current grow. FF ocean forest soil about 30% perlite added to it with tiger bloom, big bud, and big bloom as nutes.

The stems are very thick and growth seems to be going along nicely. They are only 2 1/2 weeks old now so I am only hitting them with a light dose of big bloom. I am following this schedule so far exactly as it says. http://foxfarmfertilizer.com/soilfeed.pdf

Also have some cha ching and open sesame for flowering boost. You might also want to add a 1/4 tsp of epson salt to the ph water just to help make sure you haven't nute locked the roots.

ya FF is great but the prices are outrageous. I know you only use a little bit for each watering but 60.00 us for a three pack is way to high if you ask me. And then 79.00 for the 3 pack of soluables???? BMO is used by alot of people on here. Just saying if your on a budget BMO is the best way to go. Best part about it is ALL ORGANIC so your not pumping your plants full of chemicals.

I looked on ebay but this guy has some that is about to expire (Maybe few months left, not worth it). Ill look around some more.

The FF is too much I was checking it on ebay so I might just stick with what I have. What do you guys think about FISH EMULSION 5-1-1?

The leafs seem real fresh, even the ones that seem like they have been abused. Im waiting for the soil to dry out a little bit more before I flush it. Am I causing any damage by not flushing it right now? Ill take close ups soon

Thanks guys..

About to expire???? They sell so fast I don't see that possible, they also have a year and a half self life. Maybe he is just running low on product right now. Sometimes he runs out for a couple weeks and then he gets them back. He makes everything from scratch. The fish emulsions are good but you need a higher K rating in there. Potassium is esstinal for nitrogen uptake.

Man I'm checking it now and they are all brand new. Batch dates of Jan 14. 2009. They batch dates on the bottle in the pictures are more than likely wrong. He wouldn't sell something that was about to be bad.

Alright I flushed her last week before like ya said. Havent been able to update been busy with school work. Plant is looking really good though. I left to amarillo and it didnt have water for a while and there is all kinds of new growth everywhere. The top still feels dry and the lights might have been too close since it grown over a foot now. Ive noticed little yellow dots on top of some leaves though..maybe couple or a few tiny dots. There are also these little tiny gray guys running around down in the soil...sob. Dont know how to get rid of them.

Im still feeding it fresh water. I went and told my buddy to purchase me the last BMO on ebay that he saw. It wasnt listed anymore but he was able to contact him via e-mail. Ill post a pic of it soon.

you need to find a good spray and spray when lights are off. i found this to kick ass on those basterds. good luck :bigjoint:
Ill try to find something close to that. No stores around here except small nurseries like TLC and maybe couple other

I heard dish washing soap + water can help also. Safer grow sounds like some good shit.
