Fertilizer

Hey guys sorry I have had a lot of posts a lot of questions. Anyway I am happy frog soil mixed with peat moss, perlite and vermiculite. I have used some fertilizer but not as much as needed as I’m afraid of using too much. I gave them a very small dose last time and time has come again. I wanted to run by what I have listed and see what you guys have to say because to me it sounds like a lot. Fox Farm Big Bloom 3 tsp, Grow Big 2 tsp, tiger bloom 2 tsp, Golden tree 1 tsp per gallon water. Week 8 of veg. Does this sound right?
 
So we meet again CC420710 lol.
Don't worry about asking to many questions that is what is place is for, we'll that and Pot porn.

With the happy frog soil you are about on time for the depletion of what nutrients it came with and the number you have stated are about right.

if you are in veg still you should be repeating week six till the light flip on the feeding schedule. I personally don't use Tiger bloom till the second week of flowering.

if your plants are a healthy dark green then they are fed well, if they are light green then it's time for some liquid fertilizers. Deep green and brown tips/edges is a good overfeeding sign.

if you are worried about overfeeding then just give half the recommended dose for now and watch the leaf color in nature light.

hope this helps
 
well said Mr.Furley and I like that about the color of the plants ,J Cervantes says 5 gallons of soil should be good for 4 to 6 months but recommends bigger pots,I go by the lower leafs if they start to turn they need food
 
I ended up giving half that amount to start. I took a few pics to show the color. Look good or ?

Good green color to have on the big plants overall, I spot a couple white tips which tells me that they are fed well from your last feeding, Watch that you dont get more "tip burn", it was the right decision to feed half strength this time and if you see more just give plan PH'ed water next time?
the little guy in the small pot looks rough, get a leaf torn? Light burn?
 
That one is actually my husbands it is a bag seed so idk what it will do. Yeah there has been a tear in leaf since the beginning not sure what happened but didn't slow it down
 
Leafs tear, branches break, and what not. It’s all part of the process. I spilt 3 branches yesterday during LST. Figured I would have learned better by now. Lol
Bag seed is a gamble. Sometimes great things can happen, sometimes you get a late blooming hermaphrodite. If you can afford a decent seed, it is worth it in the end.
Here are some reasonably priced seeds you can buy.

Thankyou everyone has been very helpful. Another quick question. Do you think my plants are small for age? If so like how bad? I know they had a slow start with me learning light distances. Planted them back April 10 and they around a foot tall
 
Your plants are just fine and you should be very proud of what you have done.
There is a lot of things that can help get a larger yield,

the biggest factor is proper light watts to sqft. Topping and low stress training will fill you grow box

and last is just plain trial and error that comes with experience.

My opinion on if your plants are to small wouldn't be a inaccurate opinion with all the variables.

We are you going to flip to 12/12?
 
thank you I tried my best. I made sure to do my homework and learn everything I needed to start a good grow. Hoping soon like within a couple of weeks if they keep growing good
