I'm probabley gonna fit that in there too

In the ground? buckets? What kid of soil.... whatever was there, bag soil like Roots Organic or Fox Farm? What have you fed them so far? Got any pics? what do they look like?

uhh....use flowering nutes when it starts to flower...pretty self explained...

Fish hydrolysate for veg. High P guano and molasses for bloom. Kelp all the time for micros just not too late into flower. Pure water with no chlorine to nourish the microbes. Age Old Organics are great if you want to just do liquids.

I always tell people to use only water. Do the plants get chem. nutes in the wild?

Whatever flowering nutes you use, make sure it has nitrogen in it. Contrary to what some may think, flowering plants still need some nitrogen. You want that foliage healthy and green for as long as possible. Flowering outdoors generally starts late July into early August. I usually use 1/2 veg and 1/2 flowering nutes for the first few weeks. Then I switch over to flowering nutes.

I feel like that model isn't really accurate for two reasons. First, while of course cannabis plants (or any plant for that matter) grow in the wild, most of the time they are eking their way through life under marginal conditions. Light and nutrients are scarce. Sure, they live to reproduce, but "just getting by" isn' exactly what we are after are we? Second, I'm assuming by telling him to just add water, that he should use some sort of enriched "super soil." Obviously, he didn't do that, so that doesn't really help him now. He is going to have to add nutrients at some point.

I guess the question is... whats in your soil dude?

I used this stuff thats called timberlan or something like that, i bought it at my local lowes

I'm not big into products, but I've been using the Botanicare Pure Blend Pro series for a few years now. Seems to do the job.

Thanks man ill keep that in mind when its time for my girl to start flowering!

Make sure you dont go too heavy on the chemical nutes. Try and stay as organic as possible, remember, this is going to be ingested in to your body.
