i can't give you advice on the nutes since i'm not familiar with them, but i can say that you want to use the veg nutes until the flowering process starts (and i think with grow big you use it with the flowering nutes for a week or two).
flowering period will start when the plants recognize the days getting shorter (mid august), not when it is 12/12. 12 and 12 is for force flowering indoors and has nothing to do with outdoors.

that thang is massive! haha NOICE! as far as height goes, personally, i'd top it. another thing you can do is pinch it where you want and then bend it over and support it there. better to do either sooner rather than later, imo. sweet garden btw.
the sugar is starting to become very noticable now and the buds are gaining more shape. totally stoked right now and bringing these things inside each night is less and less of a pain now that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
no, they don't look like that normally. one of the following happened:
1. poor genetics
2. freak/runt plant (the retarded one)
3. conditions were too hot
Recently I ordered from Elite Genetics and once my payment was received the order was in my mailbox 3 business days later. Elite returns any email questions promptly, has some of the best genetics (ELITE) in the world, and is certainly someone you can count on. I'll let everyone know how the...
half teaspoon is 2.5ml, so maybe just mix up a larger batch so you can measure it properly and you're not just guessing. you could also go on ebay and pick up a syringe or two, since cc's are the same measurement as ml's.
