hey everyone. I would like to get some thought and experience from you about nutrients that you have been using and/or planning to use on your plants. the brand name and NPK of the nutrients? did you use different NPK for first-middle-flowing stage?

will it help or harm my plants if i use nutrients right after i transplant it into the ground from a cup (clones plant).?

thank you much

i use shultz root stimulator 5-10-5 1/2 strength once a week for 1st month then miricle grow 24-12-12 for veging 1/2 strength then shultz bloom plus for flowering 10-54-10 1/2 strength for flowering theese are economy nutes and will work. after transplanting you want to use a high phos the 5-10-5 is also recomended for transplants.

ive never used them yet,you wont have to look too hard to find lots of positive feedback about them. i would think that 6-4-4 would be fine at full strength from the start

thanks delta. it seem like ur the only pothead that care about my post LOL. anywase, i've just put 12 of my babies into the ground today i'm feeling very good about it i still got more to put it down just waiting for it to root.

i like to get your thought about the soil of my location. i test the soil with my RAPITEST METER - the meter shown in between 6.3 - 7 the soil is black and moist, i hope is rich in natural nutes. i did not add any nutes or fert not even water after i put it in the hole, just some soil from the cup it was originately in thats all. another problem i have is the soil is sticky when you squeeze it it almost like clay but i doubt it the place going to dry out and turn it to clay like. could it be a problem? what do you think? thanks

the ph is ok i would dig up a round area as big as a 5 gal. bucket and half as deep and so you will have a 5. gal bucket 1/2 full and mix 1/2 bag of perlite with it the return to hole and plant in that the perlite will help w/drainage its a must in heavy soil.shultz horticultural perlite ,wal-mart 2.67 a bag. good luck
