i have 2 containers of nutrients in my basement, used for the outdoor flowers/garden outside. one is a hose attachment with what look like granules of nutes inside. the other is liquid. obviously im not going to blast my ladys with a hose full of nutrients haha, i would remove the nutrients and add a teeny bit to my water (filtered or bottled).

my question is; the hose attachment has really high npk levels, 24/8/16, and the liquid is about half, 12/4/8. both miracle grow.

would the hose attachment nutes be overkill?

im currently a few weeks into flowering, about 3 weeks, and im noticing some yellowing/wilting not caused by heat or watering.

the soil im using has slow release nutes so i would be adding a super tiny amount untill i see the effect it has.

i have 2 similar ladys so maybe ill try on 1 before the other just in case.

its a "ghetto grow" inside a marshall cabinet. im not professional and wont be able to calculate ppm and ph and things like that but things look good so far!

so which would you guys use in my situation?

I wouldnt use Miracle grow, the soil stuff only releases nutes when watered. If they were my plants i wouldnt use anything Miracle Grow, thats just me though. Use Foxfarm or something made for what your doing.

I have a setup on full foxfarm setup and its really simple, works better, and cost less than Miracle grow. Most garden shops carry all the foxfarm nutes and the schedule so you know wtf your doing with em when you combine and stuff.

the question has been avoided haha, i already have both. would using one of the two benefit me at all? im not a pro, its just an experiment here. bagseed and cfls.

and if they would benefit me, which one moreso?
 
Both are high in nitrogen... You want something high in Potash for flowering. I just wouldn't use those... Both are the same, just one is more concentrated. I'd go with the lower concentrated one IF YOU MUST.

so you think i would be better off without? the soil says its supposed to feed them for months and trust me id rather not if its not going to make a difference. but since i already have them i thought why not ask and see.

i double checked again today and theyre doing beautifuly. first sign of trichomes today :D. some of the mini leaves comming out of the cola are covered in them. it seems for such a low watt cfl grow im doing pretty decent so far. tons of budsites and now theyre looking real sparkly.

feedback!

Looking good bro! I'd invest in another CFL. 8$ for a 2 pack of cool white and a Y splitter for your CFL. 10$ invested with much MUCH better results! And check out some cheap ferts at local stores. 20$ altogether. Invest invest invest!

Both of them will benefit you a little, but your end product wont be where you want it to be. If you cant pick up the right nutes, then go ahead and use what you have. Im just giving you my opinon, ive seen people on here use miracle grow without awsome results. The one on the left will be better than the one on the right, has alot of nitrogen in it. If you go to strong you can burn the leaves.

yeah id love to add more cfls but i can really only fit one or two more and it would be a sloppy squeeze to install them while the girls are in motion. maybe next time around ill add more. and i would want warm white at this stage no?

i dont think it really needs nutrients at this point. i think the soil has got them covered. theyre looking pretty good to me.

and what do you mean by they wont be what you want them to be? how do you know what i want haha

If you dont want peoples opinons, then dont ask on here. For one thing, your asking if you can use miracle grow on cannabis ? Right off the bat your using the wrong products for what you are trying to do. Im telling you from past experiences and hearing others, it wont come out as good as it should is all im saying.

and im asking what wont be "as good" about it. i probably wont use any nutrients because they look heathier then i had estimated when i made the thread. i think the soil has it covered for now.
