Nutrients

Alright I'm late into the season and I'm just going to plant some auto-flowering strains that go from seed to harvest in 9 weeks and hopefully they'll work, everywhere I've been reading says they should do fine. But my question is about nutes. I'm growing in Fox Farm Ocean Forest potting soil outside and was wondering do I just skip the vegetative fox farm nutrients since the plant itself skips vegetative growth? And there are two different fox farm flowering nutrients so I presume I mix them both into the water I give them? Does them being an auto-flowering strain change anything? Thank you so much

I'm pretty much in the same boat as you with autoflowers. I have a few plants that have been outdoors and are looking good and ready to flower, but a few weeks ago I started some autoflowers. They should finish in time so don't sweat it. I would definitely use half and half at first, then move over to just the flowering nutes eventually.

Half and half of which nutrients?

Fox Farms soil comes pretty packed with nutrients already.

So do I really need to give them nutes? Everything i've read says to just follow the instructions on the bottle and I'm presuming I don't need the grow big since i have an auto-flower strain.

From my experience all of the autos I have grown did not like nutes. For autos if you start off with a great soil ot will last you through harvest. Good luck. This is all from experience, roots organics 707 should do.

So you think I shouldn't use any nutes at all?
