Im on week 1 of flower...
I only feed nutes every other watering, and the last watering i only fed it 1/2 teaspoon of big bloom in 1 gallon of water, each plant got 1 gallon of water.

My question is, should I be adding other stuff? Like overdrive or molassys ? And if so, per ONE gallon of water what all do you add? and how much of whatever you add do you use?

I'd remove the "pro" from your post as it makes some uncomfortable to respond, e.g., don't consider myself a pro but ya never know, might have a kernel to offer, or someone else, ya know? BTW, i'm not w your nutes, so shouldn't comment. Peace.

Sorry brother, didn't mean that as a jab, really, honestly. Greenest of vibes brother! ;-)) EDIT= reason suggested was that had done the same thing before & got better responses w/o it... someone suggested to me. Peace.

i use fox farms feeding chart as a guide, but i am always tweeking my formula alittle. i also add some hygrozhyme and superthive, really it depends on how lazy i'm feeling. i feed once per week and seem to be watering every other day with plain water.

weed has grown wild for thousands of years without fancy additives and nute solutions.

I just started using it yesterday but I recommed using some seaweed extract. I added yesterday and there way an amazing difference in my plants this morning. everything was just happier. when we add nutes to our soil grows it is a bonus to the plant where the roots don't have to work to pull them from the soil. you can actually grow out with just plain water. no nutes needed!

He said "pro" lol

Increase your feedings so that they peak in the middle of flowering - or about 6 weeks - then you can start cutting back the bloom nutes, but keep feeding 1 tsp molasses (not TBLS) for the last 3 weeks (before flushing), or use an off the shelf product that contains molasses. These help feed the remaining nutrients in the soil, and help with flavor, and give it some carbs.

Molasses is acidic (5.0) so be careful with it. More is not better, and the off the shelf stuff is a better alternative (sweetleaf if one brand that comes to mind).

In the last week or 2 give plain water only to flush

I would add super thrive,seaweed extract,tiger bloom or iguana bloom.Im not a pro either though but if your doing a basic grow and not a 10,000 watt grow you don't need a pro.Very basic question.Pot growing pre school really and that is why saying pro is funny.From what I seen people are trying to be cool and show you the ropes a bit and your being defensive.Humble yourself a bit and you will get further.
