my flowering nutes are way less strong, I use a variety of botanicare and fox farm and they are no where near that... the ones i used today were botanicare and they are like 3-5-4 or something like that...

i use techniflora which is like 9-18-24 its made for hydro systems and soils. and im using a 2 gallon pot. and most of techniflora is organic. but the pic looks different from how it looks now its got buds going so im pretty happy, but i want them massive buds and etc.

I had mine in 2 gallon buckets vegging for 1 month, and just transplanted into 5 gallon buckets today, and they were already rootbound...

As it was said eraliar make sure all your nodes are getting good light move the plants around every other day to let all sides of the plant recieve equal light. Also i saw u said u only got a quarter off a plant which is horrible i send 8 inch clones into flower with no veg time at all and get a minimum of a half ounce off of them 1-2 week veg time gives me around an ounce mabye more its all about the light and the conditions i use a 400w mh for the week of veg and a 400w hps for flower and have 4 plants under the light just try rotating your plants and i would suggest tying down your plants instead of topping or supercroping or anything else. When there about 6-8 inches start tying them down gently tie a showstring around the middle of the plant and then tie a wieght to the other end and have it bend the plant over so the top of the plant is facing directly at a wall then all your nodes should grow to make a cannopy and you will have multiple colas or big dense buds good luck to you

Last grow I grew in 3 gallon pots and i noticed that once i transplanted into 5 gallon buds got way bigger, and the plants looked WAY healthier... roots need new soil to spread out which allows the plant to continue to grow..

they dont rootbound. they get as big as the pot yo because i had a 6 ft nevilles haze in a 2 gallon pot. rootbound is a myth. go look it up. theres video and threads about it. and my pot it double layer its a double pot its 2 2gallon pots basically

i can send clones into flowering with out getting them any roots? because i just cliped 4 clones and i have them in jiffy and they been alive for about 3 days and havent wilted but i cliped them at 3 wks flowering off my kush. i thought you had to wait for them to get roots to even have them grow which would equal veg time . please explain that

whatever dude, Im telling you they can, but you can believe what u want.. Ive grown over 25 plants and can CLEARLY see that plants can become rootbound and its silly to think otherwise...

Fdd grows in 5 gallon pots, at least.. and honestly i could careless about fdds opinions..

let me make sure you understand my point... you can MAINTAIN a plant of any size.. If you want bigger/better results you need to give the roots room to grow.... that being said, some strains stay small so rootbounding is not a factor.. but if you get a strain that is tall, it NEEDS room to grow...

From the looks of your photo, That bucket of a container you have it in has to go! I dont know the size of it. Im assuming the drainage is poor, as it looks like a dollar store brand. I could be wrong. All these little factors make up for a beautiful healthy plant. I'd say get some Botanicare or Something alike(low n-p-k as suggested) and use that with a good mixxed soil or soiless medium. Get lights at optimal distance. Good air movement on plants and ventilation for fresh air.

How basic it really is: I got a qp off 1 6 foot plant with 2 bottles of ferts(didnt use much veg and half of bloom (Botanicare)). A bag of promix BX and a 430watt hps.


Just try to keep it simple. I dont ph test. I dont measure anything besides the ammount of nutes going into however many gallons of water.
