I just started using that trio of nutes on my first grow a week or so ago. I started by using 1/3 of what they said to use. But my plants are like 6 weeks old about 12" tall but LST'd to hell. They seem to like it i got a noticeable amount of new growth.

I used 2 tsp of big bloom and 1 tsp grow big per gallon.

So do I put all 2tsp of big bloom & grow big in the same gallon and mix it ?
I wouldnt do that on 2 week old seedlings, your liable to burn the hell out of them. They dont need nutrients yet, especially a Bloom nutrient. What kind of soil are they in? Or, are they in soil at all? What are they growing in?

Big Bloom is a low NPK plant food, and it's all natural/organic. Grow Big and Tiger Bloom are not, however, and you'd have to be more careful if you were going to use those as they are easier to over-do.

Depending on the mix you started in, and the size of the containers they are in, you might not have to start anything just yet. You might also just be able to transplant sooner than you'd have to give them anything, and then you could wait even longer. A couple teaspoons of Big Bloom isn't going to hurt, though. Just remember those other fertilizers are quite a bit stronger and are not like Big Bloom. The FF trio never made any sense to me.
 
I waited until mine were about two weeks and started. The thing is that when I made changes, they were small. I started with the smallest doses (just a few drops in a 2 qt mixer). I also didn't feed very often in the beginning. I slowly upped the dosage to about 2/3 of what they had recommended. This took several weeks.
