The only nutes I have is happy frog and big bloom and was curious if it was to early to use big bloom.It sprouted two weeks ago and how much should I mix with gallon of water?. Thanks for all the help
 
since you are using happy frog i would wait until week 4 . it is what i have been using recently because i got 4 x 2 cubic foot bags for 40 bucks i added .8 cubic of perlite for 2 bags , i would wait till your planets show sex before i add big bloom and the try 1/3 strength and go up if no problems show up.

I didn't apply happy frog when I first started seeds because I didn't want to have nute burn while they were still young. So I haven't transplanted them and I didn't find info on how much happy frog to apply to soil. Right now its just plain potting soil

There in 3 gallon containers but gona transplant into 17 gallon pots. And how much should i throw in when I mix all the soil up
 
sorry about the confusion i'd forgotten that happy frog was on more products than just the soil. i was talking about happy frog potting soil. well if you have one of the fertz , feeding then it really depends on the quality of soil you have if you have happy frog , ocean forrest, root organic, i would wait until week 4 but if not then try 1/2 strength for the dry , which accord to site is 1/2 cup for every 2 feet of height .

I have plants half way thru flower I topdressed last night w the fruit and flower..... I used a mixing spoon or serving spoon or whatever its called from the kitchen gave em each a half a spoon full..... 4.5 gallon squares ..... its the largest amount ive ever used.... a half a cup sounds like outdoor..... normally if the plants look hungry I would give em a couple tablespoons......

I couldn't find anything on Google either. But regular potting soil no addatives because didn't wana burn seedlings. That's why I was curious how much happy frog tonmix with the soil when I transplant

I would tell ya to get some castings and lime maybe some pea gravel or perlite...... then plan on topdressing w more castings and the happy frog..... water a couple times w the big bloom between topdressings....... if youre determined to mix it into the soil prolly 2 teaspoons per gallon but my plan would work better.....
