So to keeps this short and simple, i have foxfarm grow big that i used during vegging. now according to the ff website during flowering it calls for big bloom and tiger bloom together. i have tiger bloom and i was wondering if anyone on here first has used this combo and how necessary is it to add big bloom and tiger bloom together?

Thanks for the help

They work great together. Use them together.

I use all three together and they work wonders. In about the 3rd or 4th week in flower stop using grow big. If not sooner due to height restrictions.

yup used grow big and big bloom for vegging, and then tiger bloom with big bloom the entire time for flowering. worked great, just make sure you don't use the full recommended amount that Fox Farms gives you, its always better to use 1/2 or 1/4 strength and see how they like it, and work from there.

Exactly but put in the water first because they are concentrates. Then put in the nutes and mix.

since your using all 3 together, do you cut down the doses of each? or do you start with a 1/2 or 1/4 strenth of each and work up to full strength in a few weeks?

I actually use a little more than the recommended amount but right now some of mine are 5-6 weeks in flower. You should start at 1/4 stength and work your way up to 1/2 then 3/4 then full strength. Just watch your plants and see how they react. If they seem like they are doing good after two or so waters then give more. If they seem to slow down or go into shock then easy off and maybe only put in the nutes every other water.

so i know alot of people on here and ff says to use nutes everyother watering... from your post it looks like you use nutes for every watering.. is that true? i was thinking it would be benifical to start at a 1/4 strength for first feeding, then water and then 1/4 strength for next feeding and then water. meaning i would feed twice a week, with each week adding a 1/4 more of nutes. im 3 days into flowering.. what do you think

yes personally i use them every watering. but as i said wait to see how your plants react. its much better to start slow than try to erase your tracksif you over fert. them
