Can someone give me detailed instructions on how to feed my plants? I’m growing in a 2x2 tent in soil with a 191 actual watt led blurple. I know I can’t veg too long though.

I’m growing in a mix of happy frog and roots organic and I just popped my seeds in a jiffy pellet yesterday lol. I just want to know, last year I grew outside and it was horrible ‍♂

If you built up your soil properly, you shouldnt need to start feeding until week 3. Then begin with Grow, and starting the next week, alternate with secondary +grow and micro+grow until you hit flower, then continue with grow a.couple more weeks.

Watch the color of the leaves, and when they start to get lighter, give them some nutes. Like ebcrew said, FFOF will last a few weeks without nutes, but your mix might not be as strong as FFOF. When you do start feeding, start at half strength, it's better to use less nutes than give them too much.

Another question. So if my soil isn’t strong enough when would be the right to time to start nutes? Still wait to week 3 or week 1 or 2?

I just try to watch my plants, and when they start looking lighter or tell me they're hungry, I feed them. I only use organics though to make my soil better and better over time. I'm not a fan of chemicals in my organic soil, but I have nothing against using them, it's just not for me.

Not sure about that soil mix, but soils like ocean forest you can go a few weeks before you need to feed. Again not sure about your mix.

Happy Frog isn't quite as "hot" as Ocean Forest but when I use it, I dont add any nutes for the first 3 weeks, works well
