Using Foxfarm with Bubbleponics Nutrients

Hey everyone. I plan on using Foxfarm Nutrient Trio-Soil Formula (Big Bloom, Grow Big, and Tiger Bloom).

I went to Foxfarm's website and looked at their recommended feeding schedule.

Foxfarm's Feedind Schedule:
http://www.foxfarmfertilizer.com/hydrofeed.pdf (it's a .pdf so you will need adobe for firefox/IE)

If you cannot read it basically it says to grow to 4 weeks then start your flowering on the 5th. Using Grow Big & Big Bloom pretty much the whole time and adding Tiger Bloom at the end of flowering.

Is this schedule accurate for cannabis growth? Or do I want to go by a seeds scheduled flowering time?
IE: Fourway Seeds: Take 8-9 weeks to flower. Would I still follow FF's schedule or would I extend the growth nutrients to the 8th or 9th week (using bubbleponics's as my medium)?
Or does using bubbleponics have any +/- effect?

Much love to anyone who can answer my questions or direct me to a thread that I've overlooked.

Are you growing in bubbleponics and using the soil trio from fox farms? If you are in bubbleponics than you needed to get the hydro trio there is a difference. If you veg and flower longer than what the schedule says just follow the last weeks nute mix until you switch to flowering/ harvest your plant

Yeah, I'm growing Bubbleponics with Rockwool/Pellets as the growing Medium. I believe that link is to the Hydroponic nutrients. If I'm wrong please direct me to the right ones. I just wasn't sure if you go by the "manufactures suggested application" or "seed specifications"

I imagine you just prolong the early stage nuts until the reccomended flowering time by seed. Just wanted extra assurance I guess. First time and almost down to the wire just want to make sure I have all my bases covered.

*** Lastly. Does anyone know of a site that gives more specific information by seedlings on growing instructions. I've looked at some of the seed selling sites and they have some good information but not really anything that was helpful.***

What do you need to know about seedlings? You are at the site with the information

Well, what I mean is like....a site that has each seed kind with growing specifications nutrients and other things that should be known about that specific seed being grown.

I know, you guys have AMAZING information and have helped me tremendously which is most appreciated!

I don't know of a site that has that kinda information, at least not info on how to grow pot with FF nutes. Just continue with the week 4 feeding in veg until you switch to flower. Do you plan on flushing at the end of flower? If so for how long?

Yeah I imagine having FF specific schedule would be tuff. I know some strains take longer then others for growth to the flowering stage.

I'm still somewhat confused with "flushing" Do I just take the bubbleponics system into the bathroom and run tap water on the roots for a period of time? Or do I run the system with just plain water for a day or two?

I was going to go by FF's schedule and just add growth weeks to the particular seeds that call for it. I believe the system calls for a flush in week 7 (in flowering stage).

Should the system be flushed every XX weeks? And any additional information about flushing would be a big help.

Thanks Tom for the feedback. Kudo's for you =)

I would only flush for the last week or two of flower right before you chop. On the schedule they do not say anything about a flush. I would just go by the schedule for veg and flower and your plants will be looking real nice. I did that in a bubbloponic system one time but the plant turned out female. He was looking healthy as hell though

Right above week 7on the left hand side it says Nutrient Flush & Reservoir Change.

Oh I didn't notice that before. Idk if that is necessary to be honest. There are a lot of people on here that never flush. If the plant is looking good come week 7 than keep pumping her with nutes, she will like that

I'm not even sure if Foxfarm is the way to go. The nutrients aren't that expensive so I'm not too concerned with paying for them. I just want to make sure that I've got something that works from people's experience. I know some tend to control pH better then others and work a little better and have less maintance. The fertilizer is the last thing I need to complete my setup. I want to make the right decision I guess.
