Need advice multiple strains

So a friend of mine decided to stop his grow, long story. So I inherited several of these, lemon wheel, Girl Scout cookies, Chewbacca, chemdawg. I have never tried to grow five different strains at the same time. Any advice is appreciated as I know each of these strains reacts definitely at feeding time. So I figured I would start at one quarter strength ff nutes? They are all about a week from going in to flower.

Sounds like you know what to do...just treat each plant differently as they will require different levels of food and water depending on size and strain. Some might need water some wont. Will have to keep a record of what you do to each different plant so you dont forget later or get to confused.

Good luck!

treat them all the same . water and feed them all the same . only difference you will see one will stretch more then the others . not new to doing many different kinds at once . keep it simple and fun . just check the soil before you water most of the time you will water them all at once .

Thats of course not true. . If they truly are of different strains they will not act the same nor feed the same. I've been doing it for a few years now cause the Mrs likes a variety. It is a bit of a headache just for this reason. They will not all act the same,grow the same, feed the same, tolerate nutrients the same or any of that stuff.

:wall:
So ... Without seeing their plants or grow...your advice is water them all at same time and treat them all the same? :lol: Sorry thats just bad advice!

Would love to see some pics of those grows ....even though your absolutely wrong about them needing all the same treatment

So let's all agree to disagree for the purpose of my plants. Would you guys all agree that I should start the fox farm schedule at 1/4 strength and see how each react?

1/4 strength nutes is very week unless there tiny seedlings. Id go at least half if not 3/4 strength to start and see how they react.

Speaking of tent ....let's see some pics to go along with that knowledge ...and if someone was growing bomb out of a small tent what's wrong with that Bryan .....I bet they'd show there medicine either way ....so now you got issues with small growers as well...smh...if I was smoking some killer dank with a friend I wouldn't care if it was grown in a small set up ......I've got respect for large and small scale growers .....we all started somewhere Bryan ......except for you ,,,you need to grow before you give advice or look down on anyone's operation ....

That's a 4 by 8 by 9 tent. It will take quite a few. So far I'm averaging little bit more than one gram/watt hps

They are flowering now...so 1 week of flowering? What is your medium?
They are almost ready to flower. Medium is Fox Farm ocean Forest, with 30% perlite. The picture I posted is what I've got going which is King chem ranging from 3 to 5 weeks flower. And that strain is at 12 weeks for sure

And I will only be doing tiger bloom and molasses for flowering
I see ...I've had good results with ff tiger bloom along with adding molasses in the past ...as far as the ff big three it's the tiger bloom and the grow big that you wana start out with less than recommended ...the big bloom i believe is the only organic out of those three and can be ran at full strength with no issues .....you can start the tiger at 1/4 strength early on and work your way up to see what each individual strain likes ....I'm not familiar with what they've been getting for N thus far ......but I've grown some super nice plants using the FF big three including soil .....GL to you
