need help wit fox farm products

i just recieved my order of ocean forest and the three pack o grow big, big bloom, and tiger bloom. gonna transplant my sweets in the mornin. i kno i shouldn add any nutes til the soil runs out, but the big bloom says it reduces transplant stress n helps the roots. any recommendations??

I wouldn't give it right now, probably no need.

i hate tiger i say dont use it. the rest is what you want no tiger

I agree I just use grow big and big bloom both are fine alone.

i like the powder extra 3 very much. tiger will fuck you up i dont think its really for weed like people say. ive never had one good feeding with it gb and bb plus powders and maybe even big bud from advanced. winning combo right there dude

What's the problem with Tiger Bloom?

No issues here with all 6 soil based products.
no issues at all with tiger bloom.

Mabey some just have sensitive strains?

thx for the feedback guys, so i shouldn add any big bloom?? it came wit a pamphlet tat says it reduces stress from transplanting, n the npk is only .01-.3-.7
and wut ratio do you use with the tiger bloom 18fan???

I've been using all three and I'm 18 days into flowering. Right now I'm using about 2.5 tablespoons of Big Bloom and 2.5 teaspoons of Tiger Bloom per gallon of water. I alternate watering with nute water and watering with plain old tap water. I've used Big Bloom through their entire life though and I was using Grow Big when they were vegging. So far they seem to love the stuff. Honestly, I don't see anything wrong with giving them a very light nute watering, maybe keeping it around .5 tablespoon of Big Bloom per gallon?

don't give any nutes yet. grab some vitamin b1 from wal mart, its like $10 for a gallon. It will help with plant shock when transplanting.

And I have used fox farm nutes all the way through including the solubles with great results.

That's what I'm assuming cause I know my two girls are just eating it up

I would give it just water for a few days after transplanting if i was you. Give the roots chance to run a lil,lol

than than ff sched
JAKENBAKE, you doing the liquids and soluables?....i feel i could feed a lil heavier than the ff sched calls for, but im keeping it simple.
what strain do you have goin?

I'm just using the liquids at this point. And I too felt like I could feed them a little more than what that schedule says. I noticed on the back of the bottles it says you can feed them almost double what it says to on the schedule, so I've slowly been incrementing the dose up and waiting to see how they like it.

Right now I've got Euforia and Brainstorm, both from Dutch Passion.

damn euhoria sounds nice. im gonna finish off tis bagseed n order somethin maybe from nirvana. but wut bank have yall had good experience wit?

big bloom is pretty light stuff. the feed sched calls for it in veg as well as bloom. I have NEVER burned a plant of any age with bb. just go half strength and it should be fine, but depending on what's in the dirt you're using already it's probably not even needed. i used to have beef with tiger bloom because it is almost like pure acid by itself and i had major ph issues even though i upped the ph to 7 each time. after some trial and error i determined that the superthrive i was using in veg completely destroyed the ability of my soil to buffer itself and made it impossible to maintain ph. it wasn't the tiger bloom's fault at all. I've been using it on my satori grow for a month and satori is supposed to be very intolerant of heavy feeding but they are doing fine at half dose once a week. but tiger bloom by itself has a ph of like 4 so there's no sense spending money on it if you don't ph your solution.

i have problems with tiger too but i love superthive in vegg why do you think it was st vs. tiger that fucked you up? i blame tiger

get the FF feeding schedule it will help out alot. people that don't like FF either have sensitive strains or ain't doin it right cuz if you follow the chart you'll be pleasantly surprised.
