This is just another example of the huge amount of information available here. Looks like all my questions are answered by just reading what is already here!

Wow, this posts totally confuses me. I am near week 6 of my grow and was advised I had a nutrient blockout problem I guess from over nuting my plants. The problem is, I didn't use NEAR as much FoxFarms nutes as recommended in this thread, so I can't see how I over nuted them. I started using big bloom on week 3 at 1/4 strength, then uped to 1/2 strength for the past two weeks. This means I didn't use near what is recommended here, yet I am being told I need to flush all my plants that are showing curled over leaves. My PH is about 6.2 - 6.5, which I assume is good for soil grow. Also, you recommend using the Big Bloom right from week one? The Fox Farms schedule says not to use it until week 5? I am confused why I should have been feeding it Big Bloom during veg cycle? Here is a link to my leaf problem thread. Any comments? Thanks

What about the Guano Tea ?

Question. On the first page, where it lists Fox Farms nutes in soil, and it says give 2 tablespoons of this and 2 teaspoons of that, that means you add 2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons to a gallon of water, right?

Just making sure, I get kinda thick headed sometimes.

Yeah, you don't need to mix each in its own gallon of water, make sure you raise your pH after mixing.

Question about adding ph up. I am using Fox Farm nutes and after you add to water, ph goes down. I had a real crappy ph meter that I tossed and have been using a ph tester kit. Can anyone give me a round about on how many drops of ph up you need to add after adding Tiger bloom and big bloom to water to get a desired ph? I think i have been adding way to much ph up.....can anyone help?

Thanks for the info!! Wow, you guys are so helpful!

Is there a good way to tell how much water to give them every week? I've been kind of eyeballing it, but trying to follow the ratio on the bottles . My 3' girls (week 6 of flower) are in 3.3gal pots, and I have a couple clones that just went into the same size pot, but they are only 8" tall or so.
