People LOVE FoxFarms OF. You still need nutes though. That is actually an advantage because YOU control exactly what your plants get for food and not some blind self-fertilizing soil.

thanx..and nice grow box by the way.(i was looking at your grow journal)....for your grow box do u have a self watering system or do u add all the water and nutes to it??...and for fox farm soil...how many times should i give it nutes a day??

I use FoxFarms Grow Big, Big Bloom, and Tiger Bloom. You add them to the water when you water them. I water them about every 3-4 days and I use the nutes for two waterings and then I give them pure water and then back to nutes for two waterings and so on.

I water mine the old fashioned way with a watering can.

ok thanx...happy growing!!..

yea, I am using foxfarm soil and they are fantastic looking right now. I urge anyone thats going to grow soil, go foxfarms. That shit rocks. But the only thing is when you add the soil you dont have to feed them for about a week cuz that stuff is potent, I checked the PPM for foxfarms and it read 1100 PPM. SO be careful, you can over do it the first feeding.

That stuff is HOT! I do not suggest starting seeds OR clones in that stuff. It is loaded with ferts off the jump and might be too much...

Use Biobizz or something less hot, and juice that shit to the fox farm schedule
right off the bat my friend.

FF Ocean forest is AWESOME for already established plants, Its a GREAT product...but no ferts for the first three weeks!!!

I put my 6 germinated seeds into rockwool and once they rooted I transplanted into FF OF soil with 6.0 ph and its been 1 week, all is fine.

No shit?? You just drop your clones in OF???

No problem with FFOF here either. They suggest they you put your cuttings in the normal red bag of FF first but that is more money. Seeds should be fine and no problems with cuttings either. Your call.

im using earth juice 3 part, but im going to add FF Open Sesame, Beastie Bloomz, & Cha-Chinh. MY cousin has many years experience and swears by these additives and so does every1 i talk to . i have another thread asking a question about EJ brewing, maybe some1 will take a look . i found a problem with my Ph level .
what products of FoxFarms are organic???
i was on a organic routine , my local guy told me to use the FF add's... but i found out they are NOT organic, they are Organic BASED. i guess thats not too bad.. huh?

Organic based or not, they work well and a good flush at then end will get rid of even the most toxic of nutes anyways, they're cleaner then most, I've been used FFOF w/ all 6 of there nutes/sups w/ great results, like the one guy said dont feed em nutes for the first 3 weeks, I usually start feeding 1/4 strength at 2 weeks and step it up every other watering, other then that I follow Fox Farms schedule and I have great results, also I do hempy buckets the only thing I change is instead of normal grow big use hydro grow big and go full strength from day 1
