Hello, I have a plant that turned 2 weeks old today and i was wondering if i should start using Fox Farms Grow Big. I have the plant in Fox Farm Ocean Forest and it seems to be healthy. If it is time for me to add nutes, should i use 1/2 strength or less? This is my first grow so i know very little about nutrients. Tell me what you think:) Also, will this be the only nutrient i would have to give this plant for vegging?

Big enough?

No! That FFOF will keep your plant fed and healthy for at least 20 days. At least.
Dont add grow big until you see signs of the plant being unhealthy,

^^^ what they said.^^^ if the soil is new it could even go longer without additional nutes.

I agree as well. I use Roots Organics potting soil. It has alot of the same ingredients. I'd wait for your third set of leaves atleast and watch for a jump start in growth here real quick. The plant concentrates on root developement the first two to three weeks, then it kicks into plant and leaf growth. That's when your girls will explode with growth. Make sure that your container is sufficient. I moved mine straight into their last pot. Did some LST work early for light management. At three weeks you might notice some yellowing. Now is when you should start your nutes. Quarter strength to start and watch your plants reactions. If your nute levels are good and you know that they are, the next yellowing I encountered was from a mag def. I keep fish emulsions and epsom salts around for either a N,P,K boost from the fish emulsions or epsom salts for mag def. I know I'll probably hear shit about fish emulsions, keep it to yourself or to the OP. I don't care. I only use it sparingly. I know it's nasty. Hope this helps.
