So last year I had three outdoor container plants that yielded 28 ounces of bud. This year I upped it to 12 plants. Two didn’t make it (damn cat). I used the fox farm trio along with worm, magcal, herculean harvest and terminator. This year I came across green leaf nutrients and have Sea-K (kelp extract), sweet candy, bud explosion and this tiny bottle called graviton. I can’t find any good info on these but except for the sea-k they all seem to be for flowering. Sooo what do I go with? I am using the trio along with worm. I also have fox farm boomerang. Should I use boomerang and sea-k also? Or am I over doing it?? My cat decided to top most of the plants the second week so a couple are not where they should be but they are getting there. These are blue dream, dosido, lush cookie, 3-kings and two indices that I grew last year that somehow got pollinated a little. I have a feeling the bushy one (I call Chewbacca) that’s blue dream is a male. Is this a good time to top the ones that weren’t topped by the cat?

I would say stick to the fox farms trio and the ones in the smaller containers could use a transplant. I think The tall skinny ones could for sure use a topping.

I used miracle gro potting soil and some had stay green potting soil from Lowe’s.
I would do a transplant. Make a soil mix with this ratio in the below pic and I would add a bag of the black cow manure to it as well I’m drunk rn so I can’t really do the math but figure out how big your containers are and try to follow the ratio I’ve had good luck with this soil mix. I use five gallon fabric plant bags they’re on Amazon for not more than 20 dollars. (This is for autoflower) not photoperiod plants. The coir plus fabric bags makes the grow lean towards a non soil hydroponic grow. They will for sure need nutrients especially cal mag and the fox farms trio will work great. Measure your ph of nutrients when mixed and get a ph up ph down kit off Amazon for 20 bucks general hydroponics. Milwaukee precision instruments makes a 32 dollar ph pen get that too and if you wanna measure ph of soil take 1 part soil and 1 part distilled water mix it, let it sit and then take ph w pen. The coco coir comes with a ph of 5.5-6.5 and cannabis loves a ph between 5.8-6.2 so ph issue is pretty resolved from the get go make sure to take ph of fox farms and cal mag in water before applying it to your girls. Good luck
