can i use all purpose powder miracle grow plant food as nutrients

hello everyone i have just started growing and i have three seedlings just starting to sprout i got em off of marijuana-seeds.nl great place but order only if you are close half the seeds were thrashed anyways i would like tto know if miracle grow powder form all purpose plant food will work in a hydroponic system and if so how much? and also another question what othe materials can i use to keep my plant stationary in my hydroponic systems

I really think you should check out my current grow in sig.
Used the same food your talkin about during my vegg cycle. 24-8-16
It does say water soluble on the box right?
If you got that kind, then yes, it will work with hydro.
I used only perlite as the medium.
I'm also using the Miracle grow bloom booster: 15-30-15 for flower cycle
and am getting some frosty ass buds.

I use this method
the seed is germinated in a paper towel, then inserted root down, into a rapid rooter, or some other garden start plug, then fill the net basket with the pellets. The tip of the starter plug is touching the basket bottom. I keep the water level high until the roots grow into the water. called DWC without tubes

hope this helps

well i got 3 sproutlings about ready to transplant and im still debating weather i should put in hydro or not cause the nutrients can be exspensive and i live a few hours from the nearest hydro store and i pick this miracle grow up at the home depot and it says that all purpose plant food feeds flowers vegtables and trees and houseplants but for use with watering can lol any advice on how to make the right mixture new to whole hydro thing i got a air pump and a 2 gallon jug any suggestions on getting started with nutriens

here we go i found the npk part on the box N=24% P=8% soulable potash 16% if this is right how much should i add to a gallon jug and should i plant the sproutlings earlier or later because of this?

If you have the hydro setup I would throw em in that and get some practice!
For the feeding, only feed water until you see 2 or 3 sets of leaf tiers. These are called nodes.
The way I did it was to let it grow until I saw some barely yellowing of the leafs.
Then feed at 1/8th strength with the miracle grow. Which means only 1 of the small scoops per 4 to 6 gallons in the res.
PER WEEK! not everytime you water, which is a major thing I was confused on.
After a week or two of this feeding schedule you can up the dose to 1/4 strength.
After a month of veg youll know if your plant can take more. I think sometime around the month mark
is when I was feeding 1 small scoop per gallon.
You'll eventually learn your plants and able to even add more than that.
If you have a PPM meter I'm sure you'll be able to get it to an exact dose but
I have grown this whole grow without a PPM meter, and didn't get a PH tester till after a month or so of vegging.

yea i am getting close to going to the home depot tommorow and get everything. one more question i have a couple practice plants outside in soil iwater them in their own pots every 2-3 days and i have yet to feed them and they are curling on on their first 1 or 2 nodes and its only been 3 weeks btw nice plants man hope to have some like that soon and i will have some pics on soon the place i ordered them from was a mix of outdoor seeds of some bobm bud and i wont know till harvest how good my batch is but hopefully some good stuff huh lol

ohh yea thanks for the great advise most people confuse me on hydro growing i just need some rockwool and diffusers and a resvoir and ill be ready to go

thats what i use for veg, but when cums to bloom i get the goood shit...

yea i just want to make sure i do it right the first time i have a gallon water jug a 3.0 horse power pump will that be good per plant?
and i will get the bloom stuf when the time is needed lol

lol also left out i am get 2 14" diffusers at walmart later today or tommorow

Use fox farm nutes

Some people don't have access to FF, BC, GH, flora, or ANY nutes made for hydro.
Gotta make due. Plus Miracle Grow isn't bad if used properly.

well i brought a mid in for tonight shes a sproutling the first round leaves died and the first spiked leaves stayed and another set came and was a small one and a little bigger one came it was a mid grade bag seed but all the leaves on it started at the edge about 1/6 from the end of the plant is folded down yellowish kinda green with 1 or 2 spots i only gave it a pinch of miracle grow around it and its 3 weeks old idk why it wont get bigger
it has trouble so i brought it in and got it situated in a 1 gallon homeade bubbleponics till i pick my supplies up tommorow well pwizzle ty for all the great advice hope to have good buds someday i have tryed alot but never this hard and im hoping it will all turn out but im getting tired lol night

i am so confused right now is bubbleponics when a resvoir is filled up to almost brim of container but about a couple inches or so or watever fits plants roots and oxygen pumped into it through air pump to oxygenate it with water or nuets (optinoal) cuz thats what i did with a 1 gallon jug with black tape around it to prevent root rot with one cfl for it about 3 inches same with my other sproutlings and a mid seed i found yesterday on the ground was good and now has sprouted

I have a DWC and started 3 sprouts using MG, added 2, 3 week olds that was using GH they seem to be adjusting good, I started 1/2 tsp per gallon PPM was around 550, (ph high 6.2 not bad working on that)I added a gallon w/ full tsp. ppm jumped to 800+ which I think is good. gonna get MG Bloom today!! they're all n flower. What's reccomend PPM? anything under 1100 ppm? 5.56.5 ph.. ?? Tanks and I believe MG will do a great cola!!
