say that your fertilize every 7-10, and this is for bloom. Not really really sure what to use? like a generous amount, or not a whole lot?

i think its taking 4-5 days to dry out. he is saying every 7-10 days hes feeding. the question is why havent you asked this question yet? read the directions on the back and feed them about half strength what they suggest. make sure to ph after.

I like the organic approach. A variety of amendments from an organic premix in the soil time releasing nutrients over the entire grow. Supplemented with dry scattered top dressings as needed.

Keeps the visits to a minimum.

and attracts lots of animals outdoor...especialy any blood meals. also no control of feeds using time release. gets fed each time it rains.

disregard directions on bottle. use maybe 1/4 of the recommended dosage and gradually add a liitle more every watering until you find a good routine for whatever ferts you may be using

I use Beastie Bloomz and start out at 1/2 strength for 2-3 weeks and then full strength the rest of the way and feed every watering (recommended by BB) and I end up with beer can size buds. I also incorporate molasses with BB. Don't forget to flush at least 2 weeks before harvest with plain ole water.

wow you guys sure loose alot of THC by a long flush. we loose up to 5% each time we water.

add more food everywatering...realy...what a waste of food. and a good way to lock out. dont need to feed each time...or is that what that meant...the plant will only intake what it needs and leave the rest. and can choose what food from it she needs also.

losing nothin on my end, never heard of "losing THC by long flushes. I don't wanna smoke chemicals thus flush,flush flush! Over 20% thc after harvest. Where did you get this info, so I can read up on it? my weed is powerful, so if I'm losing THC by flushing, then it was way to powerful to begin with!
