Okay my grow is going into week 4 so far i've been using only

3ML of Big Bloom
2ML of Grow Big

I just ordered:

Open Sesame
Beastie Bloomz
ChaChing

They should be here at the beginning of the week.

Does anyone know the ML measurements that I should be using to avoid burn and achieve the most success out of them? I know a lot of people say do not use the recommended dosage from fox farm.

To start off, do not use all three of those together or you will nutrient lock out. I am no master of the arts but I use the whole fox farms line. I even have the "flower kiss" foliar spray but I don't do foliar >.< maybe I will in veg and do some plain water a few weeks in to try and wash it off. I don't want my buds to taste like chemicals though.

Alright so anyways I have been using FFOF and I started with the 3 part for 3 grows and all went well. I half the recipe and for the most part I never see any real nutrient burn. I think that I use too little nutrients however because at the end of the run I am only getting 10-16% THC 18-25% THCA. I would stick with one strain and try to up the dosage on her every grow just a slight bit to find her sweet spot. I know my answer sucks but every plant has a different method to her madness and she may like more of A or B while another likes more of only C. You have to play with it to find the right way for you.

Quick Version: Use quarter strength to half strength in the beginning. Use plain water in between feedings to prevent salt buildups (I water for as many days as I feel it could be 1-5 before I feed again). Use open sesame about week 2 or 3 of flower when you get your buds forming and then beastie 4-6 then chaching 7-8. I flush for a long time, to me that is anywhere from 1 week to 3.

You don't use open sesame, beastie blooms, and cha ching in the same watering though that is what I stated. If he does HE WILL get nutrient lockup.
