Okay, well a few days back I went to pick up some nutes, and realized I was broker than i though and was forced to but FoxFarm nutes, I've heard good things from fellow growers of mine, i'm just a little skeptic is all, so if anyone has had good results with these nutes please let me know, thanks!

I use Fox Farms nutes (Grow Big, Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom) and Happy frog products (soil, dry ferts.)

the first 3 are just the basics, i would have just got open sesame, beastie bloomz, and cha-ching that is if i had to choose just 3. I personally have the whole line up.

i use the trio (as p/k booster based on ppm) and get good results.

my main nutrients are cns17 bloom & grow.

I use the soil trio + Ocean Forest soil. I've never need anything else except some calmag. No reason you can't be very successful with these products, I've had great results. Ocean Forest I may get away from, kind of getting tired of it burning plants from time to time. It's just an unpredictable product is all....

I started off with ocean forest soil too. I've made the switch to Happy Frog organic which I love, also it comes in the 2.0 cubic feet bag rather than the 1.5 cubic feet like the ocean forest.

I just got some foxfarm nutes as well, but I haven't used them yet. I am not sure how much I should use because I have heard different opinions on how much to put in. there is a table on the back of the bottle for the veg nutes. But I have heard that the table isn't all too well reliable. I am growing two plants right now. So if anyone knows just about how much to use I would greatly appreciate it. By the way the pics of your guys plants look great. Cheers.

Their feeding schedule is fine, but recommend that:

- don't start Grow Big until week 3 of veg, the FFOF soil is rich enough to feed for the first 2+ weeks
- don't start full strength, if the schedule says 2tsp then start with .5tsp or 1 tsp and work up to the recommended dosage
- do flush monthly per the schedule on a plain water day but don't bother with their Sledgehammer flushing agent, just use plain water

Alright. Thanks for the advice. I am just about 3 weeks into veg anyway. So I will take into account the strength. I also plan on flushing per monthly. Very good advice sir. Plus rep.

It works for me :) Im more than happy with the end product. I don't use their flushing product but instead use distilled h20. I use gb, bb, tb, for outdoor along with black strap organic molasses. Ive had some better results using just subcool's super soil, but for where I live the gain does not out weight the cost of composing super soil.

Two years ago I grew the same cut of Querkle outdoors in 25gal. smart pots. One in Super Soil(used Roots Organics) and one in Pro-Mix w/ myco( 7 bucks for 2.5cf ) that was feed with fox farms and molasses. In the end the super soil yielded about an oz more but there was no difference in taste nor potency in my opinion :)
