What’s the time release of the nutrients in the soil?

See where it says 6 months? That’s the time the nutrient is active in the soil. All you have to do is water and you’re good to go. Make sure you are watering at 6.5 ph to ensure the plant can’t utilize the Nutes in the soil.

Just started these 2 with the FF in the pic, I dunno how early I should use the liquid nutes, I'm have to do some research. @Dontjudgeme

No need for additional bottle feeding. FFOF has all you need. Maybe some additional P and K in flower, but that’s about it.

Easy fix ... toss MG .
Water ffof with 6.5 water .. run it alone.
Since you might have added a bit too much nutes in an already hot soil , just water ( when needed ) and let medium exhaust a bit. Plant will feed fine from it .... its fine , no worries.
Later , you can SIMPLY use more FFOF as a topdress ( adding a scoop or so ) and water in.
There is so many growers that seem to hit a wall using FFOF , for some reason. It can be recharged this way for any length of grow whether photo or auto.
MG is notoriously hot ( extended feed ) ... it pushes nitro heavily thru its use - not so great during flower.
Some growers use it , some hate it. It just when its added to already nuted medium where some things happen.
Anyways .... IMO i would just water it ... even for a couple weeks. If plant gets hungry , top dress it and continue water .

@Budzbuddha hey bro, you talking about transplanting this plant? I did notice after sunlight all day the leaves folded like tacos but it's gone now. Also I put alittle over half a teaspoon in a gallon of distilled water and dumped that in there yesterday. @kmog33

Forget distilled... leave that shit for baby bottles and irons , use tap. Ffof is 6.3 ph ( happy frog same ) , so all you need to do is water at 6.5 ( make sure of ph “ going in ) - get a ph pen. Most municipal water is fine but check yours. Some chlorine in water is actually GOOD for plant growth .
No worries on your initial feed of MG .. just let the soil medium actually do the work of feeding up front. You can transplant into any size you planned for but i would just let it “ do its thing “ , it has acclimated to ffof this far so adding more ( when needed ) won’t overload it since its already used to it.

Hopefully You don’t have them. Killing everything and sanitizing...or avid...pretty much only ways I know to get rid of them.

Looks better than the other photos. I would watch the bottoms, like here. The speckling, not the light burn
