So my girl is almost 5 weeks old and growing by the day. I'm using Fox Farm nutrients, Grow Big veg nutrients and tiger bloom flowering nutrients. ...
My schedule so far....
week 1 - nothing
week 2 - 1/2 teaspoon veg
week 3 - 1 teaspoon veg
week 4 - 1 teaspoon veg & 1/2 teaspoon flower

I'm also using Fox Farm soil. I wanta know if I can up the dosage or if I'm using too much. This is my first grow and the plant looks healthy but maybe I can be feeding her more.... Any info in feeding would be helpful

Less is more. I follow the directions on the FF web site, (water, water, feed, repeat) I don't start feeding till after a month or so....

According to that schedule I haven't been feeding her enuf, not even close. It saus at week 4 I should give 3 teaspoons of veg and 2 teaspoons of flowering nutrients. .. that seems like alot, especially sence I keep hearing less is more

I push my plants hard with these nutes, I see a little burn I back off. You have to give you plants just enough water for a few days on this schedule. I run 600 and 1000w 's so they drink about a gallon every 2 days in 5 gal pots. (of course this depends on plant size)

Using FFOF soil you shouldn't need any nutes for about 4 to 5 weeks. Then start small, maybe 1/4 per suggested, up it as you see fit. Strains will react differently. GL

Dude I used ff nutes for years you plant looks great those leaves with the discoloration is nothing just pluck them off. At week 5 just start using there feed schedule like tubepot said feed water water feed etc.at this point just use there recommended doses.the only thing that I would consider if I were you I'd probably top that baby 2 nodes down and veg it for an extra week or three ha ha to increase your yield.any help you may need just ask,but your baby looks great.
