8 plant gorilla grow 6' plants

Picked a nice spot for my grow. Chemdog,super skunk and auroura indica are the strains from marijuana-seeds .some plants grew bigger than others .Used ff grow big for veg then switched to bone meal and some other potassium and Cal organics. Gave them a compost tea before flower to help transition. Worked great .Plants look wonderful and this is my first outdoor so I'm looking for suggestions on how to finish this up nicely. Done alot indoors but it seems outdoor is a whole other ball game .

Preflower. Watered with gravity fed auto water system. All fem

Started mid June and tea consist of

2 cups urine
2 cups wood Ashe
1/4 cup Epsom salt
Compost
Steeped three days.

Not sure how to flower outdoor and the best ratios to use .getting ff trio pack in the mail today .still gonna go with tea as well every three feedings .Any suggestions?

You might want to use some kelp and some bone meal. What kind of wood ash? Is it aged?

I put down some bone meal right before preflower. I used oak Ashe and it was aged two years .with the Ashe and meal should I hold off on the ff for a few weeks? Or can I go at low strength since it's outside?don't wanna give em to much but wanna make sure they are getting what they need. Thanks .

The preflower stretch was 2-3 inches a day and is coming to an end now.

I would give them only water as needed until they ask for more. If it was dry when burned and aged you should still wait at least two waterings before adding more. Concerned about PH issues with ash AND urine.

I timed the tea watering for right after a heavy rain as I was concerned too .their biggest growth was the following day . Blew me away .wanted to do it again but held back .also put on my friends sick plant and brought it back to awesome health in two days .

Steeping method for tea .no airstones. Used whirlpool method .

Hold off on the the fox farm trio until they really start to form "buds"
I would stop using wood ash and urine for now.

Gonna take your advice and water for now .thank you .I will also keep post updated with pics along the way. Chem supposed to be a heavy yielder. If you have any other advice plz let me know. My first outdoor so it's a learning one for me.

Any suggestions on how often to water with tea? And what basic teas to make for microbe growth .it really seems to help.thanks

I was watering with AACT every time. I was adding my grow nutrient the the AACT when feeding. Now i have switched over to a Lacto Bac inoculant and flower nutrient. Check out my grow journal..
