Sure, bud.

With numbers like #-#-#, that is the N-P-K.

You want more N (so, a higher first number) for veg, and higher P and K (so higher second two numbers) for flowering.

Hope that helped.

What thegrowman said. The terms half, med, i think you might be mixed up. The term half strength is meaning to how much nutes you are to feed your plants. KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!

Why do that when you can buy nutes that are 20-20-20. This kind of nutes give you equal nutrients across the board during growth. KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!

10-10-10 means 10%nitrogen 10%phosphorus 10%pottasium. plants need more nitrogen and phosphorus in the veg state. more phosphorus and potassium in the flower state. start nutes about 2or 3 weeks in veg at only about an 1/8 of what the directions say. gradually bring the strength up as plants grow. dont overdo nutes dont overwater, you cant really get individual products w/seperate npk ratios. i personally use miricle grow bc i cant find anyof the products that are popular on riu.just make sure u use at very weak strength to start- when its time to flower miricle grow has something called bloom booster with higher p&k ratios. its takes a lot of reading diiferent opinions to figure out what u want to do-but just eep looking over the site- youll get it. read the faqs. best of luck. so far mine are ok

its all in the faq m8.

its just reading up on it. its basicly been explained. plants need diff nutes at diff stages.

as someone said above, u need more nitrogen in veg(after about 3-4weeks) and more phosphorus and potassium in flowering.

Nitrogen(N) - Phosphorus oxide (P205) - Potassium (K20)

GROWFAQ

there the link to the correct page
