Hello, I'm having trouble with watering schedules, this is my first grow, I'm planning on doing it outdoors, I can't really get good soil where I live, so I will just use any kind of regular soil. So, I'm planning to buy, a pH test kit, (I read about 6.3 is perfect for outdoors) and FF's pack of nutrients, I'm kinda confused about the watering schedules. What I mean is: 7 days in a week, how would it be? like mon: water, tue:nothing wed: nutes? and so on. Someone who has experience with fox farm's nutrients, what is your watering schedule?

i would really recommend good soil like ff you can order online. Do not get miracle grow or anything that has timed released food it will be pain.
that nutrient line is good just start at 1\4 strenth of what they recommend
as far as when to water and how much that depends on how big of pot and what kind (plastic,fabric etc) I just lift the pot and when its super light I water i also recommend adding perlite to your soil to help drainage

Well, I can get earth worm humus and some of the nutrients needed for the soil, but not the soil itself cuz that would be to expensive to ship, so: I've got another question: What are the most important nutes for the soil (the essential) because i can buy some online, but like I said, im on a really low budget.

Your watering schedule is guna depend on lots of things ...like tempature soil and plant size .....you can't just make a schedule and go ....you have to go by what the plant wants. Are you in pots or the ground
