I am wondering what would happen if I use "GROW BIG"
during flowering along with the other 2 FF Flowering Nutes?
Thanx!

to much nitrogen. The plant stops taking in as much nitrogen when it starts flowering. you will either burn it or nute lock it. dont do it. I use FF products as well. use one or the other!

so I guess it's ok to use until actual flowers start to form right?
Then switch over to the flower nutes right?

I use all the Fox Farm products, and YES you can give them Grow big during flowering. Look at the Fox Farms web site and check the feeding schedule. They recommend Grow Big in the 3rd anf 4th week for flowering. Plants do still need some Nitrogen during the flowering process. I use Grow Big, Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom all during the flowering stage, not all at the same time, but if some of the upper leaves start to look pale or light green them I hit them with some Grow Big @ 1-2tsp per gallon.

I use a combo of grow big and Beastie bloomz throughout flower. Just keep the grow big dosage low as you get later into flowering.

Sounds like too much for your plants, IMHO
But these other guys have some good ideas too. Can't hurt to just try something out and see what happens.

from what i have learned from using ff is
that u should use the grow big week 3&4
and if u r using boosters it will help with the take up i have had beautiful flowers with this method
also what i learned is that use cal mag n with those nutes... this is blue cheese n week 7 went a total of 53 days

fan leaves should start to yellow later in flowering! look at my pics below! just as they would in the wild! I like a clean taste and good burn. The big bloom has plenty of nitrogen to carry it through flower on its own! I use grow big until the begging or middle of week 2 flower! Every one has their own way. just don't over do it!

their schedule is a general schedule! not pot specific! I looked at some of the pics in your journal. they don't look horrible. but still obvious problems! brown spots are bad! leaf curling is bad! leaf tips dieing very bad! fan leaves starting to yellow! perfectly normal!

your leaves are burnt, curling, and have brown spots! your buds aren't that big for week 7 the pics above are week 5 1/2 under only a 400. Imo you would have better luck if you stopped giving them so much nitrogen!
so medicalgrowman look at the pics and chose for your self. nice big and healthy or small and burnt? ONE OR THE OTHER! I believe the tiger bloom has 0 nitrogen. so i could see adding to that but the big bloom has plenty for flowering!

yessir and the additive was bloombastic started a week 2 @ 1ml per gal by week 4 2ml
the smoke was so fresh and so clean by the way the spots were from a cal mag issue that i solved and these we under a 600hps
i was doing a side by side with bloombastic and hydroplex i noticed when u feed them wih certin add they tend to eat more of that
and thats y they say u need the n @ 3/4 and it also keeps them more green... the side by side was a success the atami finshed 8days faster than the hydroplex
she ripened so quick once the flush began as with the hydro it finishes within the 2wk flush range always the resin content is awsome from both but atami unbeliveable 100% on my money

That doesn't look like a 6 oz plant! with 2 plants under only a 400 u pull 7-8 oz a plant an could get more if I let them grow longer. I will admit that the pictures you posted in your last post do look better than the other ones you posted but your leaves are still droopy and still too much nitrogen! the fan leaves are supposed to start to yellow!

Is this thread still about "GROWBIG"? It seems this thread has taken a life of it's own! HeeHee!

you see enough of what i got in the previous posts. If you are using so much stuff why are you having problems? How could there be a cal mag issue? I dont understand! Unless you burnt them with too much from mixing too much crap together.
