The FF trio system is a good choice , Big Bloom is great for flowering and bringing out the best characteristics of the strain you are growing. I suggest using the grow big and tiger bloom throughout your grow to help avoid any deficiency. Followthe FF feeding schedule
 
I've had very good luck with the trio. Def use tiger bloom as well (add both to res/water one at a time, don't mix nutes directly). The FF feeding schedule is on the Nutrients page here.

What were you using in veg?
 
Big bloom and tiger bloom for flowering. I've always used them in combo so can't say for sure if only one would work. (the third part is Grow Big which is mainly for veg, suggested in the feed schedule for first 5 weeks of flower). Most garden shops or even the garden section of a hardware/big box store should carry Fox Farm. That's where I got my bottles anyway.
 
What kind of plant are you growing ? And how old is she ? What have you been using so far ?
Yeah, that's good stuff, but strong as hell, if I was you id start off at less than half strength, and see how your plants like it, if they do ,you can go up a little.
 
Depends... if you are doing an organic grow with composted soil... you can use the big bloom with the microbrew. You shouldn’t need much else besides the Bembe (which is basically molasses) because the soil is already plentifully with the compost nutrients and the biological elements. You will need plenty of soil (large containers only!) to maintain the plant throughout the grow cycle. Most of us are using liquid feed diets (usually a mix of organic and not so organic nutrients). In that case, you don’t not need super soils, and you can get away with smaller containers. But yes, you need the trio minimum for your base formula. And to be honest, the quality will only be up to par if you are using the dissolvable nutrients for flowering (the open sesame, beastie bloom, and cha Ching).
I’ll post the entire feeding schedule. I use everything here minus the flower kiss and sledge hammer.
I also add AN rhino skin to this schedule because there is never enough silica with out it.

Here is the schedule for hydro... for Hydro I just skip the sledge hammer, but use the rest. I also add rhino skin for hydro too.

If $$$ is an issue and you need the trio, I suggest getting the grow big next. You can hold off on the tiger bloom and open sesame until flower time is near. You can buy the beastie bloom and cha Ching last since it will not be necessary until mid-late flower.
If you need...Pm me, I think I actually might have some extra of the dissolvable types laying around here.
 
Luckily the grow big is organic feed. Mostly earthworm castings. If they are small plants, I always suggest 1/2 the recommended dose. Larger plants can handle this stuff though. I have gone totally overboard with no ill effects.
 
Check out my post on Nitrogen during the flowering stage.. less Nitrogen is needed by week four so, I have jus dropped the ff nutes from my feed altogether, even tiger bloom contains two parts nitrogen to the prosperous and potassium. Also, I read that too much N in flowering can cause smaller bud development as well as a hay or dry grass type smell to the bud when drying...
