Also, do you use the flower tabs from the get go? Or do you put them in when you notice your plant needs nutes? I'm thinking if you were to put it in too early it would fry the plant?
Yea it would burn your plants if you were to put them in right away. Also since I am growing Auto's I have to only use half a flowering tablet. Another thing is since im using FoxFarm soil I dont have to use Nutrients for at least 30 days due to it already has what the plant wants. Check out my grow you can watch it for yourself what happens when I get to the flowering stage. https://www.rollitup.org/cfl-growing/410139-lowryder-2-x-ak-47-a.html#post5334413https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/410353-everything-i-wish-i-knew.html
That includes components for a good soil mixture, I'd compare what the flower tabs provide (I know NOTHING about them haha) and compare what you should supply your plant with for the beginning of its life
I'm confused as to why you posted this thread then?
It was posted a while ago and I am updating it with my current link. Other people may have the same question as me and would be able to answer it from my link. Therefore being relevant for other people as well looking for the answer. Im sure im not the only person that are using these tablets and would like to know what other people are doing with them.
Since its only my first grow I went with the flowering tablets from the Nirvara website because i have heard many stories of newb's over doing it with nutrients and making their plants all turn yellow and stunting growth. So I researched and found the tablets have the right amount of nutrients for the weeks it take for the plants to flower. In the future I may buy a couple different nutrients if the flowering tablets don't give me the results that I really want. So far FoxFarm soil has given me what I have wanted out of it so I am going to stick with the soil for right now. Since I'm growing Auto's though the website says to only use half a tablet or it will give them too much nutrients and i will end up with the problem that a lot of newb's end up with and thats the yellowing leafs. So after I get the results from the flowering tablets on my grow you will be able to see for yourself. Since they are flowering tablets you dont have to put them in till the soil runs out so you have time to decide in general.
