I am on second grow and need some advice of fox farm feeding schedule. It is easy to read and I have the full nutrient line except flower kiss and bembe.
My question is are the number of tsp under each nutrient the total for the week or each feeding? It says to feed twice per week. I know to start out light and work up if plant tolerates feeding well.

That is a tsp per gallon, then feed your plants as you normally would. If you need less than a gallon then go less depending on your need. Please remember to add the nutes to your water and then pH to 6.5-7.0.

I do add nutrient to water and PH them til 6.5. I have never mixed less then a gallon of water with nutrients. My main question is the feeding schedule gives you a number of teaspoons per gallon for each nutrient for every week. The top of schedule says to feed twice per week. So, is the numbers listed total for week or total each feeding with is recommended twice?

Whatever, I've never burnt up a plant in my life.

Peaceman, if I knew what your soil make-up was it will be easier to help you with this predicament. Without that, let me say that when I used the trio, I fed my girls nutes once a week and straight water once a week ( which was their schedule because that's when the pots were dry lift heavy...or non heavy as the case may be ). HOWEVER, because of my soil make-up I used ZERO nutes for 30-35 days because my soil was healthy enough to support their growth for that period.

So, the more info you provide the better answer I can give you.

Anyone who would use their feeding schedule for seedlings/cuttings shouldn't be growing cannabis anyway. Exactly why I asked peaceman for his soil make-up.

Exactly, especially depending on your soil make-up....if you veg for 8 weeks, their schedule has you using bloom nutes in week 8, so you have to use some a little common sense depending on your particular situation. I wanna help the guy, just need to know what he's working with.....

Thanks for your advice. I use vermifire and 7 gallon grow bags. I'm entering 5th week of flower. I have been giving way too low of nutrients to my 6 plants. Soil is probably mostly tapped out. Giving about 75% strength to my plants last week and they look way better. Here are bud picks from earlier today I sent my brother. Critical mass, white widow, THC bomb

I'm not familiar with "vermifire" but your plants look healthy in the photos. You can up your nutes slowly until you see a burn because I hardly think you have any "out of whack" nuting right now.
