Going to be running Chem-gro 4-20-39 for an outdoor grow. Any suggestions, also on ratio other than the standard 3-2-1? Thanks!

If I'm mistaken, the food is for hydroponic. Best to read and follow manufacturers directions to the tee.

My option.

Jack's 321 is labeled Hydroponic too but I hear of guys using it outdoors. But I'm not interested in screwing up my crop. I"ve emailed and called the Manufacturer and received crickets so far. Wonder if something like Grow's more Mendocino 20-20-20 is a 'safer' bet, or Masterblend....Thanks for the replies!

That is the same with I'm using, Mega Crop (Green Leaf Nutrients) which was originally hydroponic as well. I grow outdoor and have been using it per manufacturer directions for hydroponic use and my ladies love it. Into my 3 year with this feed.
I'm sure Jack's is adequate as well, though keep a very sharp eye on the leaves for the first few days after feeding for the 1st time. If they are point out, look good and happy, keep up the way you are feeding, if not, than depending on how they look, such as loosing their green color, then add more food to the water, just a little at a time.
Good luck

Thank you. I have some Jack's too I could use instead of the Chem-gro I have. I wondered why I couldn't find more posts about Chem-gro outdoor experience. I bit on a post that said it 'stomped all over everything', lol.

10-4 on that. As far as others not posting, that is not unusual considering the past holiday. Give them a few days to get back into the mood, and it will get interesting around here again. Me, I'm an old fart and don't travel much, so I just hang around here and another forum and if for no other reason, I like to mess with people. lol.
