Before you can do any of that you have to buy a pH meter or test kit, PPM meter, and while you are at the store a 35 dollar TechnaFlora Recipe For Success kit so you can have some real ganja fertilizer. If you don't have a PPM meter the rule of thumb is to start with 1/4 strength, and slowly bring it towards 1/2 strength until the plant is happy, you start using it as soon as the plant stops growing rapidly. pH test kit is a must though.

don't buy the hype-

all you need is to read your plants. it's easy. look up a guy called riddleme, uncle ben, fdd2blk, and read.

miracle grow WILL grow great ganj, as good as fox farm any day. i guarantee it.

go to the local greenhouse and get JACK'S classic, grow and bloom. it's super cheap. for a beginner it's all you need.

let the hating begin.

EDIT:

for YEARS, i used schultz brand tomatoe, and vegetable fert(slow release), on my outdoor.

i dont think they ever did side by side comparisons though..so how bout U DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE lol..no but seriously i would never use it and i've actually seen 2 side by side's..both guys used AN, MG, FF..same strain..same light..same everything.. AN had the densest buds and yield, FF came in 2nd for bud density and yield, and MG got last with a thumbs down.

AN-

funny.do the research nuclear. there is no "tomato farm".

i've always wondered why soybean farmers don't use it. i mean, they crop is LEGAL. yield is everything.
their techniques are based on botany. that's why.

I was at the grow store today and the guy showed me the Recipe For Success kit. Pretty good deal and I might buy it to compare it to my other nute regiment. Have you tried this before? Peace, jethead p.s Sorry Nuc, I hope you don't mind

a greenhouse in the area WILL have jack's-

and you'll have the added benefit of meeting another local grower, even if only begonias. he's also got ounces.

of bug spray that is.

the alaska does work well.

when doing an outdoor grow what does the PH of the water need to be before going in the ground? and also after watering the plant with PH'd water does the soil need tested afterwards?(growing in the ground..not pots)

i find it really doesn't matter-

of course ph's closer to 7 will do better, but i have good luck every where but the pine stand.
mother nature finds a way for the plants to thrive no matter the location.

weed is a weed!

happy growing
