Fox Farm feeding schedule-Autoflower

As you grow out your own autos you will see that they need a specific treatment from one strain to the next, even one pheno to the next. As we know autos are not real stable at this time but are getting close to it. I see this happening in the near future though.

So if you would like to super charge your autos this is what I do. But remember that this is my feed schedule to my conditions as well as soil amendments. SO if you know you have a hot soil ease up on the mix to make sure you dont burn and if your soil is plain compo you can get a little brave but less is more here.

The back of most of the FF bottles say 2teaspoons for regular feed and 3 for heavy feeding. I never use the 3teaspoon regimen. 2tsp is ideal for a 1/4 part break down.

Week
1 pH water only

1.5 add in Big Bloom to the mix at 1/2 tea spoon

2 1/2tsp Grow Big 1/2 tsp Big Bloom

2.5 3/4 tsp of grow big

3 1tsp grow big and 1/2 Tiger bloom 1/2 tea spoon Big Bloom

3.5 1/2 tsp Grow Big 1/2tsp Tiger bloom

4 1tsp Tiger bloom 1/2 tsp Grow Big

4.5 Clean pH'ed water to clear out salt build up

5 2tsp tiger bloom 1/2 grow big

5.5 1 Teaspoon Grow Big

6 Begin Flush for the final weeks. At this point i can flush for a week before i begin to see yellowing of the fans.

I like to leave enough time to get all the salts out of there before the harvest. This stuff WILL salt up on you and cause build up and lock out.

Hope this helps some of you out there and remember this may vary to your application. This is just MY feed schedule.

I use FFOF and dropped the Nute line for megacrop but this will work for autos.

FFOF is already highly ammended right from bag and needs nothing. ( for autos )
Since auto veg stage is short ( up to week 5 before preflower ) .... the soil alone will feed it .
Ph water to 6.5 and water only as needed. The soil will run long into the autos lifespan and no multi bottle shit is needed.

Forget the feeding schedule put out by fox farm , it is too much on top of an already hot soil.

If using FFOF ( ocean forest)
TRY THIS :

1 week(seedling) – Ph adjusted water

2 week(start of vegetative) – Ph adjusted water

3 week(vegetative) – Ph adjusted water

4 week(pre-flowering) – 1/2 veg nutes ( grow big )

5 week(first flowers) – 1/4 bloom nutes ( tiger bloom )

6 week(flowering) – 1/2 bloom nutes. ( tiger bloom )

7 week(flowering) – 1/2 bloom nutes. ( tiger bloom )

8 week(flowering) – 1/2 bloom Nutes / then ph water on next watering ( nute wind down )

9 week(flowering & harvest) – Ph adjusted water till harvest

If auto buds needs week 10 or slightly longer .... continue same as week 9.

Plant will pull from itself and medium residual .... ( leaf fade )
( cleaner end product ).

No flushing or other bullshit necessary.

Note : Instead of using Fox Farm Nutes ..... you can SIMPLY add “ more “ FFOF to topsoil
and just water in for a recharge.


It is really that simple.
I'm new to the forum and have only a few grows under my belt and can't thank you enough for the great information on FF's.

I have a 5x5 tent with a next light mega led and all the bells and whistles (I wanted to invest properly from the beginning). I did about 4 months of research before purchasing my new setup.

Anyhow, I'm about to germinate GG4 and zkittlez (both auto strains) with FF coco loco and wanted to know if you have any experience with that particular medium? I will also be using FF trio nutes as well.

I want to conduct 2 different experiments. 1) I want to follow your FFOF with FF frio feeding schedule
2) I want to use the FF coco loco as my medium and start adding 1/4 strength FF trio 3 wks in...any thoughts?

Would greatly appreciate your expert advice and thank you kindly, in advance.

It is my understanding that fox farm ocean soil is a “ hot “ soil . Meaning loaded with nutrients . This also meaning you should be good for 3-4 weeks on just ph water alone .
