(same convoluted method as above!) Above where?? follow instructions on the bottle"s" and then dilute down to an appropriate EC/PPM level for the plants age. Other good advice from others who have provided answers to this question..

Depends on how long the miracle grow soil you added can provide a proper diet to the plant. You may need to wait for some symptoms to properly learn how and when to fertilize going forward in future grows, assuming you use the same products... start small and slowly increase over time.. observe and react to deficiencies or toxicities as you go. take notes... adjust what you do next time for better resutls... this is all you can do. Even if someone uses your exact same soil mix choices and fertilizer, you may find youneed to do things slightly different. your climate, lights and ambient co2 matter too. it all has to jive together. FF instructes incredibly high doses that will require frequent flushing. So, start at 1/4 strength and go from there. On the 'first' grow i'd wait till i see some hint of deficiency before fertilizing, but take not of timing so that i start a bit sooner the next grow. my suggestion is shit or get off the pot.. either go soil or soilless. Also, add perlite or similar to your potting mix. it rarely has enough out of the bag except for things like 70/30 coco+perlite. In a heavier soil you want 1:1 perlite. so if half your ptting mix is miracle gro soil and half is coco coir you need about 40% for a more perlite for an ideal gas:water mix and good drainage properties. Simply a weighted average. soilless is easier to learn. easier to diagnos. provides plant-read nutes that results in faster growth etc, as long as you are systmatic about learning and keep track of behaviour. soil has advantages too, they just aren't as important to me. YMMV. Regardless FF sucks a dick. LOL. I used the trio for one grow and gave it away... best choice i ever made. instructions suck, plants looked like shit... too esoteric and imbalanced to work well out of the box.

Hey Growmie, once your seedlings have 3–4 true leaves, you can start feeding light nutes go ¼ strength on the Fox Farm Trio to start, like 2 tsp Big Bloom, ½ tsp Grow Big, and 1 tsp Cal-Mag per gallon, no Tiger Bloom yet, that’s for flower. Feed once a week, plain water in between, and always mix Cal-Mag first. Watch for tip burn or clawing, and adjust if needed

Wie viel must du anhand von ec Werten oder Angaben des Herstellers beachten, ab wann? wenn deine erde Nährstoffe Hat dan reicht es ab Woche 3 bis 4. Kommt aber auch auf den Boden drauf an, calmag kannst du prinzipiell von Anfang an geben so ab dem 10 Tag. Ich kenne den dünger den du hast leider nicht aber ich gebe meinen ab der 2 Woche einen NPK dünger der 7-3-5 hat. Dann etwas später wechsle ich Dan auf einen stärkeren. Aber du must einfach schauen wie viel ec deine dünger Mischung hat in dem du langsam dünger ins wasser machst und schaust wie der Wert sich verändert. Kannst im internet schauen was es su für richtwerte, und Phasen von der Pflanze gibt.
