Might be time to start feeding it!

I'm mostly an organic soil (water only) guy myself, but I've always had good results with the Fox Farm line of nutrients in the past.

Fox Farm Grow Big for Soil and Tiger Bloom are a good combo.

Good Luck!

Can you get nutes In one bottle rather than mixing two just to make life easier ?

The Fox Farm Big Grow for Soil is for vegetative growth and the Fox Farm Tiger Bloom is for flowering growth.

You would not typically mix the two of those together, although some folks might during the transition phase.

The thing about using a 'One Part' formula for all stages of growth, is that it's not customized for either Veg or Flower, so you may get mediocre results using something like that but it's not out of the realm of possibility.

Ok mate I see the only problem is I ain’t too sure weather I’m in the flowering stage now or still in veg are you able to tell from the pictures I posted ? I started 1st of April

It looks like you are still in the vegetative cycle.

In my area - USA\Michigan - most plants won't start flowering until mid August or so..

Good Luck!

I haven't tried it myself yet, but a bag of MEGACROP will get you through a full soil grow if wanting a "1-part"

They just came out with a new version that is finer and easier to mix. It isn't liquid , but is a dust, and you get much more because you aren't paying to ship liquids in bottles.

My plan of attack would be, get some quality potting soil that has dolomite lime in it and a larger pot.
Do a transplant, once the plant seems to be thriving from the transplant, start with 1/4 dose feed every 2-4 waterings.
Work your way up from that and learn what the plant wants.

Where you live will determine when that plant will flower. You might expect this plant to get 2-3 times the size if all goes well

If you don't want it to get too big, I don't know what to say lol. It is still vegging and I don't see much flowering.

A bigger pot is nice because it means less watering!

I don't know if they're doing the "free" samples that you pay only shipping for anymore. Those will last 1-2 grows https://greenleafnutrients.com/blog/2020/01/21/about-the-free-samples/

If I repot in a storage box like this would the roots burn due to it being see through ? It’s a good size 27 litre
