that is exactly right. Big BLoom throughout , Grow big for veg, and Tiger BLoom for flower.

hopefully you got a nute schedule with that stuff, it really answers most of your questions.

here it is for soil. ....hopefully.

whatcha mean nute schedule? lol
yea i thought i just added a little like every 2-3days when i water.
that is after about 30days of just the soil since the soil is supplying nutes for now

also, if you are using fox farm Ocean Forest soil, you really don't need to feed your plants during veg because Ocean Forest is pretty much full of nutes already. I'm using the same fox farm liquids and Ocean Forest, and I didn't feed any nute until about week 5 of veg., and then it was only about 1/4 strength. I didn't burn my plants or anything, but i don't think they really needed to be fed even then.

hope this helps,

Man, your hydro store guy should have given you one of those....

One thing commonly overlooked on there is feed with every other watering.

The Grow big and the Tiger Bloom are measured in teaspoons, and the BIg Bloom is measured in tablespoons... and it is per gallon of water.

there's probably a clearer copy on Fox Farms web site.

you feed the nutes when you water the plants, so you add the nutes to the water...

how much nutes you add is based on how much water it takes to water your plants.

or you just mix up a gallon and pour the leftovers out or on something else...

If your worried about the size of the nute bottles, you shouldn't... I feed with about 6 gallons of water, and the 32 fl.oz. bottles will last way beyond one grow.

Unless the bottles your looking at are smaller... but I've never seen smaller bottles of this stuff.

yea $20 dollars seemed expensive for these bottles, but maybe that was just me.
but if i got a 6gallon bottle... filled up with water and put right amount of nutes in it,
i can keep it for every watering right? or would i have to empty every time and get new water and new nutes in water for every watering
