So what typically do you use for fertilizer any links? Pretty much everytime I give water and it drinks up in the pan mixing amount of big bloom and something else can't remember and doing it over after water goes away lights about a hand or so away 6-8 inches with tinfoil all wrapped around but not in a enclosed in a closet.

Just making sure everything's going well. Lol 2nd run. Girlfriend pulled first one way to fast she wanted to smoke and ruined it not strong at all. Very sad.

Thank you for the replies everyone and here is a picture of her for today I know I need to trim some of her leaves but how it only takes two or three days and she's back like this again she was just trying to completely lol. Trying to maximize the light and not having a grow room and just using a regular room isn't the best but it's all I got currently.

Master Blend

4-18-38 Base

15.5-0-0 Calcium Nitrate

Epsom Salts.

All you ned to do is usee small ever increasing amounts of this blend from seedling-flowering.
Cut back 25% 2 weeks before chop, and then another 25% 1 week before chop.

IMHO using a Veg Formula, and a flowering formula is a money grab by companies, and most flowering formulas are grossly low in Nitrogen. Its a myth to cut back Nitrogen during flowering. The main thing is to have a balanced fertilizer for the complete grow, and small ever increasing PPM until 2 weeks before chop.
0-52-34 may also be beneficial in weeks 3-4 in an 8 weeks flowering strain. If different than 8 weeks flowering, adjust accordingly. An extra small boost of Epsom Salts is also beneficial in weeks 5-6 in an 8 weeks flowering strain.

And I much prefer using Calcium Nitrate, and Epsom salts as my Calcium, and Magnesium sources. Not to mention my nitrogen source. Calcium Nitrate is around 19%-20% Calcium.

I started with these in 1996 and have used them ever since. Today I usually use them only in flower and use DynaGro Foliage Pro.

Do you actually see differences. ? Like big results?

I'm only using which might not be bad or might be good because fuck I have no clue very new but not hard to give something light, timer, inside, and fertilizer and keep my cat and girlfriend away from pulling it earlier this time I should be okay lol

Forgive me well let's try this
I understand me sorry people been telling me this lately and this is my reply back no harm intended lol

But I use currently
Fox farm grow big 6 - 4 - 4
when starting out after seed to produce fast and green fast growth then afterwards growth for awhile only use this before flowering and starting to get branches and grow big fast before hairs starting etc...

Then I use

Tiger bloom, buds and blooms
2 - 8 - 4
(Together)
Fox farm, big bloom
0 - 0.5 - 0.7
On each water and after it's sucked up I use again. I don't flood them just enough to get them wet and enough to watch them suck it a good half inch in water in a pan at the bottom

are you saying you bottom feed or water and let them sit in the run off? Below is a fox farm feeding scedule for soil. Most people start at around 1/4-1/2 the strength listed to see how the plants take it (fox farms can burn plants if fed too heavy)..

ff suggests starting with big bloom, then adding grow big then in flower adding tiger bloom

Fox Farm really isn't that great for cannabis. However, i grew the BIGGEST, SWEETEST tomatoes ever with FF trio and Beastie BloomzPXL_20220626_231607396.PORTRAIT.jpg
Look @ this MFer, and it was a medium variety too! Bigger than the previous years' "Big Boys".

So, FoxFarm isn't a total waste of money of time, but with cannabis you'll always be chasing problems, leaf spots & so forth. Go with General Hydroponics, I've used Flora Trio & am currently using Flora Nova; the Trio is much better for drip system because Nova is "chunky".

LOL You're fine I think all of us smoke some better than average pot.

@ALPHA.GanjaGuy was saying do not let them sit in run off; sitting in a pool of de-oxygenated water that is evaporating to a higher salt content will hurt them.
