So the title tells You my major issue lol and another question is , I never feed my plants nutes, they’re in their veg stag week 8 or 9, what’s the best guidance you guys can give me in using the FoxFarm trio pack without killing or hurting my plants? I got everything I need, from nutes Big Bloom , Big Grow, Tiger Bloom and Cal Mag to Ph up and Down, Ph Meter, Ppm Meter and Neem oil for these peasants! So what I’d like to know is how should I start using them? light amount of nutes? since it’ll be there first time taking nutes? Also I have no clue on how to read the Fox farm schedule can some one explain it too me , what I circled is what I’m not quite understanding
(Time) does that mean the age of week of the plant? (Sorry if I sound ridiculously stupid, but I wanna get a great proper understanding on readin and how to measure and mix
(EC) and (PPM) the numbers on the chart is that what it needs to range when mixing an amount of tsp of nutes all together? I’d highly appreciate the help it’s my first time, I’m trying to get the best results without trying to hard , it would be upsetting if I kill them for my first time but I can pick from my errors as I go

Dan you circled the EC and PPM suggestions, don't worry about that for now.

I used Fox Farm for 10 years before switching out to Dyna-gro because of some burning issues in flower. Go light on the nutes.

The chart may suggest feeding every second watering but I just fed 1/2 teaspoon of FF dry nutes to one gallon of water, feeding every watering.

Start using the nutes at 1/4 strength, next feeding 1/2, then on the third feeding full strength.

Time means age of plants.

Got any pictures of your plants?

Their feeding chart has you feeding insane levels of nutrients. 3.0 EC. I never run anything half that strong. I see more people following that chart with burnt to a crisp plants than any other nutrient brand. Add that feeding schedule to a soil grow in FFOF and you can fry your plants.

Use a fraction of what they call for.
