Planning on using tap water and nutes, I know that I need to let the water sit for 2-3 days to let the chlorine dissipate. :joint: I'm also planning on adding nutes. FoxFarm Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom and Grow Big. With the natural minerals in the tap water, will adding the nutes be an overload for the plant? Should I cut the dose when adding the nutes, then move up to full strength later? :-| Any help is appreciated and +rep. Thanks yall!!:weed:

Yea dude as Texan said use 1/4 the reccomended nutes whenever introducing a new nutrient to the plant. Since you are using foxfarm products, just follow their feeding schedule after you introduce your plants to the nutes found here: http://www.foxfarmfertilizer.com/feedingfox.html ...

Make sure you wait at least two weeks before introducing the plant to nutes, dun wanna nuke the plant at such an early stage, goodluck bro and FF has made me happy so far :leaf:

ummm u are supposed to use tap water and nutes.. there is nuthing wrong with that and letting is sit for 2-3 days is way to long.... give it a day max i sometimes even feed right after i make the mix....

there is no need to minumize nute strength..... what u realy need to find out is how much and when ur supposed to feed...... do u know ur plant.. its peak ppms? wwhat weeks u feed what amount???? do u have a ph and ppm pen ....

those are the things u should think about fuck the water and chlorine crap....
