Im using the foxfarm trio,have been thru veg. I start flower tomorrow & start to use tiger bloom. My main concern is adding calmag to those. In which order to i mix the nutes? Any help is appreciated!
How to mix the nutes!?

Silica if your using it goes first, then Cal mag, then nutrients, then beneficial microbes/enzymes. Adjust pH. Mix between additions. Brand doesn't matter.

I used GH flora trio and I added cal mag 1st then micro and it said you could add grow or bloom after that and did not matter in what order for those two nutes. After that, I read the feeding chart and added further nutes in the order in which they were listed in their feeding chart. That worked for me and just got 19 ounces out of 4 plants

Been a spell since I ran FoxFarm, however I believe the general rule of thumb (or the one I use) is to mix my silica first in water only. I then follow up my calcium/magnesium. After those, I add my primary nutes followed with any bloom enhancers.
This said, when all else fails, read the directions.
*Here's my caviot to that: Just about every formula I've used, I usually cut the primary micr/grow/bloom formulas down to about 50 to 60 percent of their suggestions. This usually puts me at around 1100 ppm. As I add water, the ppm's go down. When they get to about half the ppm's they began with, I change them out.
This said, I run hydro and that might be a different animal.
