The fox farm big bloom bottle says for general feeding add 4 "tbsp" 60 ml per gallon.... but the feeding schedule on soil chart says 3 "tsp" which is 15 ml per gallon.. then i seen for hydroponics chart says 20 ml a gallon.. why in the fuck is the bottle saying 60ml per gallon?? am i missing something here?

Follow the chart and start off small. I currently use all 3 FF Nutes, grow, bloom and tiger. If it says 3, use half and eventually work your way up. Towards the end work your way back down to what you started with. Take the chart with a grain of salt, more of a guideline. I tried following the chart and got burnt. Not enough to destroy the girls because I caught it early and know what to look for. If you are growing in a hydro system, I would still follow the chart, just start off small.

[/QUOTE yay i have read start off slow.. especially tiger bloom.. most say to stay at half strength on that once i get there... im going to start big bloom at half strength.. coming off running big budd last 3 weeks with tiger bloom... thanks for more info .. appreciate it... the bottle is way off then the chart.. im a smart man.. the big bloom bottles saying 60 ml a gallon when the chart is saying 15 ml... thats a huge difference.. if i went off bottle i would be giving 4 times amount the chart says.. is this a error on their part? its crazy to me..

The Big Bloom is pretty watered down stuff, look at the N-P-K. It's weak sauce so you have to use a lot to get the PPM you want.

They call it "concentrate" but it's organic so it's much less concentrated than a salt based nutrient.

Forgot the bottle directions.

Use the schedule and start off at 25% of recommended values on that schedule. Increase % of recommended values each week.

Are you using only big bloom with nothing else? That's a little different.

Yea follow the schedule and begin slow is my suggestion.

Big bloom is weaker however you are adding tiger bloom as well so your P will already be fairly high ppm.
