Any recommendations of soil fertilizers?
Go to a hydro store and ask them and be strait up with what your growing and they will point u in right direction if your on a budget and u can’t afford 5 diff bottles …floranova grow bloom and cal mag will get you start to finish …that’s what I used my last 3 grows had bud candy as well it’s a good 17 dollars well spent and then 10 bucks for the flawless finished about 25 for the grow and 25 for the bloom and ull be set for about 15 to 20 plants

The nutes I suggested are easy to over do they are synthetic nutes but it’s good stuff it’s what they use in space the floranova series … start light and easy your lvls up …but transplant is a must … and do u have any idea what you ph is? Is your water cuty or well … do you have a tds meter all those help but not 100 nessecarry u can get a 10 color chemical reagent ph test kit which will get u an idea what b.c. ur working with because p h is one of the most important things in growing weed

Ok so should I go with ffof? Soil ph was around 6.3 last time I checked and water is city and is around 7 ph but I filter it through my zero filter. Yes I have a tds, it came with my filter. I water once or twice a week, runoff is around 6.5 ph and about 400 ppm. I also mixed some super soil into my soil when I started.
Ffof is for veg… ur going into flower I personally like ffsf strawberry feild which is an flower dirt … has more pink and little to no nitrogen then u can follow a regiment to your poo making time release takes all your controll away from you … I wouldn’t pull any of them if you got an auto in the mix I’d put everything on 12 12 at the time the auto starts throwing pistils and they will finish close to each other

Ok thank you so much.there is so much to learn, and here I was thinking it was just put some seeds in the ground. Two more questions do you think I have enough light for my space, and should I have just kept my homemade lights using 6- 3500k and 4- 6000k "100"w leds instead of getting these ebay lights?
Plug em all in if you ain’t worried about electric its only gonna hike u but few bucks a month more light the better

And are these 100 watt equivalent regular bulbs which are only like 13 or 15 watts something like that? If so you need to keep them close to the plant as the intensity diminish greatly at short distance photosytheticly speaking

Ok I left the 4 6000k plugged in and gave my uncle the 6 3500k to get him started, so I will leave them in there. Thanks again for everything and I will get my soil and nutes ordered.
Yes they are and I keep those clipped to the edges of the container with heat lamp fixtures and have my “1000w” equivalent ebay purple lights hanging about 2.5 feet up.

I was talking about your 3 bulb custom thing but if your plants dont act negatively then should be ok but they seem a little close down wanna burn you plants onnaccident… when lowering your main lights go an inch or 2 a day do everything gradually and introductory like
Ok. I moved the main lights up a little bit and moved the others closer.
