how many are you using just the trio or the solibules also? as far as big bloom goes give them the recomended you wont burn with it. wait till about week 3 or so to use the grow big. and start that small. what soil are you using fox farms also?

I've been following they're feeding schedule @ half strength & my lady looks very happy. You can follow from week 1 @ half or quarter strength if your starting seeds or clones in they're light warrior seedling clone starter soil. Then repot to fox farm ocean forest. If your starting in fox farm ocean forest then you don't have to feed for about the first month but beware as this soil alone may be to hot for some seeds to start in and may present nute burn. Hope that helps. Good luck!

Never heard of it. But only one way to find out.. Does that brand have a clone/ seedling starter soil? if so start em in that. Not sure how hot the Bio-Terra is so let the little ladies tell you what they need when they need it.

yep just read them. youll know once they are ready for nutes. the big bloom isnt really a nute its more of a micro booster. are you using superthrive or anything. i havent used it on seedling but use it on my clones. also see if the shop has some clearex you will need it if you plan to push the plants on fox farm ferts. By push i mean in the 1500ppm+ range, and that would be in flowering.

I have the fox farm complete set and I don't like it at all. The recommended schedule is bullshit.

I'm using the soluble hydro fox farm products but doing it in soil. The first gallon I mixed was a little over half strength then next was full. Grow big first. When you switch to flowering go with the tiger bloom. Same strength as grow big. Half strength first then full. Haven't used the big bloom yet. Hope this helps. Btw, I'm a newbie and have gotten 2 oz per lady before fox farm products. Already see a difference with fox farm and only 3 weeks into flower.
