Going on 10 weeks I think. Lost count lol. Been growing since May 23rd is when I planted it from germination. My question is. Should I be feeding it with the fox farms cal mag and bloom every watering. Or do I follow the bottle? It’s getting a gallon of water everyday. Getting conflicting answers. Also when do I chop down? When all white hairs turn amber? Thx for any info. This is auto bubblegum

How much and when to feed is determined by your run off numbers (PH and PPMS) Harvesting is determined by your Trichomes and after an 80/20 milky to amber it’s a growers choice

What is it I need to buy from Amazon to check them numbers. What is it called? Ty

This is my first grow. So unsure what u mean on 80/20
To check the PPMs you’ll need a TDS pen (total dissolved solids) I have a Blue lab for that and super reliable. Apera 20 is an awesome and very reliable PH pen. 80/20 is 80% milky in the Trichomes and 20% amber and can be seen with a mag glass, hand held scope or a jewelers Lupe. No worries on being a 1st timer, we were all there and full of questions. This community of cultivators are super helpful and only want to see you succeed. Tag me on any questions

What r the run off numbers supposed to be?
Assuming a soil grow and saw the FF trio. If you were feeding and watering to run off consistently I would say 1000-1400 on the PPMs and the PH should be in the range of 6.3-6.8 with 6.5 being the sweet spot. Soil should go from a wet to dry cycle and feed, water, feed alternating and to at least 20% running out the bottom of what you put in and test a sample. This practice will prevent salts from the previous feeding building up in the root zone preventing certain nutrient absorption

Yes it’s a soil grow (fox farms). In a fabric bag I haven’t had to feed till it started budding. Now that it’s budding leaves keep going yellow so I was told to get calmag. Which I just started a week ago. But it says once a week. Feeding. But someone said everytime I water. Thinking that might be to much

Post a few more overall and some of the yellow leaves. If you haven’t fed at all it’s probably nutrient deficiency but want to see some pics 1st

I have been feeding the fox farms bloom since it started flowering but just started the cal mag a week ago. I water a gallon everyday, as that’s what it’s been needing. I have a bunch of houseplants that are very healthy so I thought maybe I could grow bud lol. But it seems to be a tad more work lol but yes I’ll take sum more pics
Those two will be ok to use. Its the tiger bloom and grow big that you gotta be cautious on.

Its better to use the trio in unison. You will get better results.

Y r the leaves doing that?
The plant is hungry imo. Needs calmag and all of the trio. Cal mag and big bloom itself simply is not enough.
Trio is that a brand or? Sry if a stupid question I’m new to this
The trio is fox farms 3 part liquid nutes. Comes with big bloom, grow big and tiger bloom. You need that at the least. There is a full dozen different bottles fox farm sells. There is also a feeding schedule for it but i recommend following it at half strength.
Is there an all in one feed?
Most nutrient lines are three part plus the option of more for different benefits
