So I have just picked up some Fox farm Big bloom, Tiger bloom and Grow big formulas. I went on the Fox farm web site for there nute scedual and want to know is this the scedual you guys use? I have heard to start at quarter strength (but it the scedual already looks like its quarter or half strength). I have a few plants starting to bloom and some that are still in veg. I'd like to get advise from anyone who has used the fox farm trio pack and what dosages you used. Also can you use this with the blackstrap mollases? Thanks in advance for your advise!

When I used FF I used the chart to a T except that I didn't feed for the first month and after that started at half-strength of what is listed..working my way up to near full strength over a few weeks.

So how did that work out for you? Did you like the results?

I guess it worked okay. Truthfully I wasn't very impressed. Grow Big and Tiger Bloom are both really acidic and people tend to use a bit too much, let it build up, and throw their ph out of whack.

I'd very much recommend going with Blue Mountain Organics or Age Old Organics instead. Organic bud grows, tastes, looks, smells, and smokes better...and both of the aforementioned brands are cheaper than FF.

If used in minimal amounts FF can be very noob-friendly and allow the bud to reach its potential.

i use those products in hydro..and i just use tap water at like 200ppm and 8.0ph so using acidic products can be good cause they will lower the ph almost to perfect..if your using ro water or distilled you will have to use the ph up drops

Dude for flowering I am using a combo of the Big bloom and Tiger bloom(that is what FF recommends). Today was my first feeding so On my plants still in veg I used 1 TSP/Gal of Grow Big. For my others that started to flower I used 1/2 TBLS/Gal of Big bloom and 1 TSP/Gal of Tiger bloom. Also don't mix consentrated nutes together, mix in water first. If you go to Fox Farm web site they have a soil and hydro nute scedual, That is what I went by but I'm not using full stregth yet. I'm starting about 1/2 stregnth.

THose look like some nice THC coated buds! What kind is it? So why don't you like to use mollases? I've been reading a lot of good things about it and even Mr. Cervantes recomends using sugar to increase yeild. I'm interested in hearing about peoples expierience using of mollases and Fox farm, Dis likes and likes.
