First Time Using GH flora trio

[Zaxar]

Hello Growers!

So I started new grow with 2 lovely strains (Jack herer, Blueberry)
It is day 2 since I moved seeds in solo cups and they are feeling happy

The situation is that it is first time I bought some advanced nutrients ( Like GH flora trio for soil)
On my previous grows I only used some local nutrients available in my country, which was not made for cannabis and didnt had big effects on growing.

However before using them (GH flora trio) I just want to make sure that I'm doing everything right.

1. First of all Im going to use this schedule and dosage of nutrients http://www.growweedeasy.com/general-hydroponics-flora-trio-guide
2. Add micro flora to water first, than shake
3. Add Floragrow and Florabloom and shake again for better mix
4. Add Ph down as tap water in my country is 8.0 PH
5. Check PH
6. If PH is correct than water medium with all mixed above

Thanks in advance!

Hey Zaxar , everything reads ok dude........just a small point, when you say "shake" do you mean mix, only because if you are putting it in a bottle and shaking it to mix dude, if you shake too much or mix too vigorously, it can alter the PH dude. Happy growing​​​​​​​

I use the same. I add nutrients in that order ( don’t forget CaliMag ) and then stir. I used to shake but now stir. After adding - for me pH down) I stir again then check.
have a great time!

What made u decide to change from shaken? I use the house of my sink to sturr everything up but then I shake it up a little also I've never had and issues

Thanks for your replies, you helped me a lot!

I think I will water them with flora trio in few days!

@St Buds - when I did an intermittent change to Canna coco ( 1 Grow) ..although i shook previous GH...I decided after few years of shaking 16-18 gallons ( from my sink as well) that if stir didn’t get it I would need to re-evaluate growing. It was taking me 4 hours to mix, PH, and feed 8 plants. And in late flour I was feeding every 3rd day.
Switching from shake to stir has made no difference in my Grow. And is much easier on my time and body.
Zaxar what is your medium, type of pot, and size of pot?
